Big Sister General, this fall, only on UPN.

u/Misfit_Number_Kei Aug 24 '24
I can see that as a '90s UPN show so vividly. 😭
Kamala's trying to do "Presidenting things" yet Maya can just barge into the Oval Office like Steve Urkel as a running gag down to the catchphrase (there'd even be a hapless Secret Service agent who can never stop her and just gets knocked over trying,) and talk her crazy schemes even when she's supposed to have a sit down with a foreign ambassador (from a real or fictional European country, but it's still stereotypical as shit because '90s sitcom,) like using CIA spy gear because she thinks her friend's man is cheating on her so the two of them are actually wearing black outfits, hiding in the bushes with night-vision goggles, etc. but it turns out the guy was actually planning a surprise party and the "other woman" was actually his sister/party-planner.
And thing is, considering "Homeboys in Outer Space" and "The Secret Diary of Desmond Pfeiffer," it wouldn't even be the most absurd concept on the channel.

astroturfed with the memes for a few years.
It's this.
He's a very normal politician. As a Canadian, I don't have any opinion about Biden that I don't have about the average world leader. He was just doing his job, and in my opinion, a very good job at that. Forgiving student debt, cleaning up a bunch of the tax shit from trump, etc. etc. etc.
People seem to think politicians need to act like your friend but they really don't. It was a big sell with George Bush, that he was "a guy you could have a beer with". But on the international stage he was pretty incompetent.
Kamala seems competent but I don't really know anything about her. And the astroturfing hasn't been able to destroy her rep yet.
