It would have made a great episode of The X Files (I’ll just crash near a hospital)

September 2021

“Last year the Canadians came in and won it all, Schitt’s Creek’s swept all of the 2020 comedy awards, this year it was the English. It was a Brits-krieg this year, as half of the Emmys went non – dare I even say un-Americans. Even Ted Lasso had to move to London to win an Emmy this year.” —Jimmy Kimmel

“Even more telling, he added, was a dopey American interviewer in London who asked Gillian Anderson, who won the Emmy for best supporting actress in a drama for playing Margaret Thatcher on The Crown, if she talked to the former prime minister about the role. Anderson answered, politely, that she had not. The reason that she hasn’t is because Margaret Thatcher died in 2013. But it would have made a great episode of The X Files if she had spoken to her somehow.” —Jimmy Kimmel

“In other news, farm stores have not started to restrict sales of the livestock dewormer ivermectin, used by some hardcore anti-vaxxers as a Covid treatment despite debunking from health experts, to confirmed horse owners. For those who cannot get their hands on the horse-y sauce, the anti-vaxx crowd has been turning to monoclonal antibody treatment, an IV-hookup used to reduce symptoms of Covid. Pretty incredible people who don’t trust vaccines do trust being pumped full of lab-created antibodies. This is like sky-diving and instead of using the parachute you’re given, you’re like ‘yeah, I’ll just crash near a hospital.’” —Jimmy Kimmel
