Come for the ridiculous magnet stunts, stay for Helen Mirren in a car chase.

The Hamilton Polka
About five minutes after I started watching “Hamilton” on Disney Plus, I started wondering how long it’d take Weird Al to get a music video together for “The Hamilton Polka”.
Turns out the answer was two days, and it was worth every second of the wait.
Come for the 4:45 seconds of awesomeness that will get your mind off some of the nightmare that is everyday life, stay for Martin Short wearing a “Straight Outta Quarantine” shirt.
Lords of the Dance
I might not have liked Joker, and I didn’t like Spider-Man 3 (just like any right-minded person), but I love this nonsense.
I love it so much.

Last Week Tonight: SLAPP Suits
After spending two years engaged in a legal battle with a coal executive who was less-than-enthused with a giant squirrel telling him to “eat shit”, John Oliver finally shares the details of what happened, explains SLAPP lawsuits, and ends the segment in a way that ensured that I’d have to post it.
I had no choice, people.
Microsoft the Musical
The bit in the beginning where they consider Bill Gates less of a person and more of an idea is kinda weird, but the part where they make fun of Windows Phone really makes up for it.
Konami will be releasing a mini version of the TurboGrafx-16 later this year:
Konami has announced the latest in the slew of shrunk-down retro consoles, the TurboGrafx-16 Mini. Six games have been announced so far for the system, which will be released in Japan as the PC Engine Mini and in Europe as the PC Engine Core Grafx. It’ll have two USB ports for controllers and support a five-way multiplayer adapter.
I’d like to tell you that I won’t buy this, but if it ends up including any of the Bonk games, I’d just be lying.
Well Fork.
While I’m glad The Good Place will be ending on its own terms, I’m bummed that it’s ending — it’s the best show on TV, and we’ll all be worse off when it’s over.
Also, if you’re not watching it, you need to get on that shirt right forking now.
…that will make more sense when you watch the show, I swear.
Honestly the only reason I’m not demanding it be December right now is because that would mean I’m skipping Avengers: Endgame, but that’s it.
Party Rock Anthem but Uptown Girl
I just remembered that this exists, and I wanted you to know about it, too.
