I don't watch that sort of stuff, I flush it.

Yeah, we frequently fast-forward through a lot of it too. SNL does use a lot of satire and caricature together and that can be a little hard to take but you might be missing a little humor you would have enjoyed. SNL has been around for more than 4 decades, is widely considered an American late-night institution, and continues to earn critical praise.

I watched SNL from the very beginning. After Belushi died, and all of the originals left SNL has not been the same. It originally was all about the comedy, now it is all about progressive leftist communist garbage. They have no humor that could ever interest me.

Hmm, I guess we enjoy it partly because we don't take it seriously. In fact, that SNL opening skit was hard on everyone, the president and the dems: Trump (long neckties, childish), Pelosi (wide-eyed, power drunk), Schumer (Jewish woman, flippant), McConnell (timid, bird boxer), Waters (threatening, crude), Ocasio-Cortez/King/Booker/Cardi B(dumb quotes), and Clemson Football (silly). Obviously the Trump character (Alec Baldwin) got more run time in the skit but everyone in it was well chastised. Remember, SNL is not a political program or an educational one... too silly, maybe but more relaxing than many pundit types we deal with today. By the way, we watch CNN and MSNBC as well as Fox News - different slants on the news are interesting. Try it.

E-Verify is shutdown; you can't check the employment eligibility of new hires

About 400,000 mission-critical workers, including many Law Enforcement, Bureau of Prisons, and Border Patrol, have to show up and work without knowing when they'll see a paycheck again.

So, whether you see an effect or not depends on where you stand and what you do.

BTW, I'm told suppressor and NFA purchases are on hold, too, because many at BATFE are furloughed.
