      No, def not every imho (they never had long arcs & joke repetition was only in the early episodes iirc), they are doing however an arc & the new romantic couple will def be features more.
      So 3 to 5 more episodes of this I would say? Tho they could conclude it all next episode too & later only have background references.
      (The ez material is def there.)

      I actually missed/expected a few more jokes (I had high hopes bcs this is the new Saddam - I’ve seen the image with Satan & I was hyped moments before watching the episode) & even more plot, but it seems they only generally set up the new situation & chars in the first episode.
      Also it was fairly light (no directly dark stuff), that I thought was automatic with Trump.

        It really would be something. Just a fucking relentless onslaught of obscene caricature and vile innuendo, the occasional blatant reference to proven, or at least previously litigated facts that are more offensive than anything Matt and Trey could invent. They could fuck him up in the public eye, like waaaaaaay worse than this.

      I doubt it, they set up a bunch of storylines. The episode is barely about Trump, most of it is how we’re responding to this new reality

      Parker and Stone have always been counter culture centrists… But from global warming to increasingly obvious political shifts, they just had nothing to say and seemed to realize maybe they’re not as smart as they thought

      They didn’t talk about Trump 45 or MAGA much because they want to cynically sit back and make fun of wokeness and caricature bigots. They want Cartman to be a source of shock value, and they want Stan to be their honest take of an honest person trying their best to make sense of the world

      But now people are identifying with Cartman openly. The episode was not subtle about that. Things have gotten out of control… Stan’s arc was about Jesus being forced down his throat, he doesn’t really have a problem with Jesus, he’s just really weirded out.

      The Trump bait was supposedly added late in production based on Paramount firing Colbert, they signed a $1.5 billion deal with paramount two days before airing and they want to blow up the merger. They didn’t like how skydance leadership was already pressuring them, and they don’t like the idea of censorship in general… That all was a fuck you, I dare you to cancel us now that real money is on the line

      Trump will definitely be a backdrop, but they’ve finally found something they want to say. And there’s just not much to say about Trump…What, are you going to call him a pedo? Are you going to say he smells? Are you going to say he’s cheating at golf while his handlers do an ethnic cleansing?

      There’s just no room for satire with Trump, and I don’t think they can bait a reaction much harder than they did this episode

            Omg, Lemmy reply too so I’ll be in the pic when someone screenshots my og comment as prophecy!

            But yeah, unfortunately the famous DSC (Mrs Dirty Slutty Couch, a character with a southern accent, over the top sexed up, vary easy to s sit on) that was later featured in two movies won’t come to prominence until late 20s (at the time making satire and social comment of the third coup of the year, this time prompted by Vance appointing a literal couch as ‘head of congress’, a bold move after already introducing to the media The First Couch that lives in the White House).

      It would be nice if they hit Schumer and the rest of the useless, elderly democrats too. If there ever is another free and fair election, the democrats aren’t going to win if they’re represented by spineless, status quo reps who never want to try anything new, and insist on playing by the rules. So, a little humiliation would be good to encourage people to primary them.

      Why are you getting adds on Lemmy?!

      1/3 appears to be an eyeliner stencil. 4 and 6 are clothing. 5 is glass orbs full of low-freezing-point liquid so they stay liquid in a freezer but have high thermal mass. They are used in some woowoo skincare routines to cool skin.

      2 is very weird. It’s an index finger that appears to be covered in glitter and tiny orbs.

        2 looks like a finger with a “fresh” tattoo to me. That’s what they look like immediately after they are done. Kind of swollen, and they are usually covered something. Probably to make sure it heals properly. I’m not an expert though.

          It did to me too until I zoomed in.

          My wife thinks it is beads using a finger for scale. The glitter effect on the finger is likely fresh adhesive sticking them there.

        I have the opinion that the asshole who chose the images, intentionally chose 6 even if it’s “unrelated” because it has a X and at a first glance people might click it thinking it’s a button to close the ad

        And they cropped the finger to make it look an erect penis, to get clicks

        Why are you getting ads on Lemmy

        Because they are using a client that injects ads into its feed.

        I believe Boost does that

    • Left to right:

      1. Eyeliner/False lash glue stencil
      2. Rhinestones for eyelash decoration
      3. Same as #1
      4. Fake high-quality (as in low quality designed to look high quality) sweater/pant combo
      5. I think these are some kind of facial serum, or health/mana potion minis. Either way do not consume, and probs don’t spread it on your skin
      6. A hoodie

    Whilst Trump hates this every American citizen not enjoying the (unblurred) presidential pp & would want it blurred is now at risk of deportation.

    I mean technically a “penis” that small isn’t a penis. So there’s nothing to blur out. Also let’s think business like Trump supposedly does, why would you spend time and resources on something so small? Not worth the cost. We need to conserve time and money.

      The only thing conservatives are conservative about is showing empathy for anyone outside of the cookie-cutter ideal American that only exists in their very odd and often times homo erotic dreams.

    You can watch the end of the episode on HeTrumpedUs.com, I don’t think the article gives it enough credit for the thing they pulled.

    I would have never guessed they get this aired, they are really not giving any fucks.

      I will admit they give no fucks when they criticise Israel’s genocide. Until then, they are playing it safe. Trump doesn’t care what the left says about him, this won’t reach enough of his voting base to matter. They control their narrative.

        I forsee a “school shootings” style acknowledgement where throughout the season they will just have a constant stream of children being bombed in the background while the episodes are going and finally do an episode where someone is actually acknowledging the genocide and thinks they’re overreacting about it because nobody else cares about the children being exploded in town
