Unfortunate side effect of the scandal is this period-comma-apostrophe bullshit from the New Yorker.

.@KatieZacharia is not a lawyer and has never been licensed to practice law. The @WSJ reports this evening that she took the California Bar Exam but failed. Nevertheless, Zacharia appeared on media programs for YEARS and repeatedly called herself a lawyer. Here's a super cut:

ABC sitcom Home Economics had a lesbian sister with two straight brothers! It was a really great/fun show.

If you are not watching #homeeconomics on @hulu you are really missing out. It is such a great story about family that many of us can relate to.

Man. His role as an older Doug Kenney in A Futile & Stupid Gesture fucked me up and changed my life in the best way. Loved him in everything, but the way he portrayed a comedian who never got to grow old is one of the funniest, most heartbreaking performances I’ve ever seen.

Very sad to hear about the passing of Martin Mull. He had bags of charisma, dry as dry ice, funny and seemed like a great bloke. He was great in ‘Community’ and fabulous in ‘A Futile and Stupid Gesture’ which is the last thing I saw him in

One of the joys of A Futile and Stupid Gesture was getting to know the many talents of Martin Mull. On set one day he asked if he could play us a song he wrote that might work over the credits of the movie. We went to his trailer, not expecting much. 1/

But his song perfectly embodied our bittersweet tone and we knew that’s how we had to end the film. We shot it on the last day for most of the cast. Everyone was messy from the food fight as they crowded around Martin, playing his guitar. Real tears flowed. RIP to a legend. 2/

I am once again begging copy editors to learn the difference between “balling” and “bawling”
