I love that there's a movement in favor of @buzztronics being the new permanent host of @Jeopardy . Buzzy is a force of nature. And he does what you need in a host -- keep the energy up and give the contestants a sense of confidence. Oh... and he isn't a sexist. So there's that.

@rsdancey @elizhargrave I think it's telling that you refer to men "taking the punches." Why does your rejecting a project consist of the metaphorical equivalent of punches? Perhaps this is why women don't want to pitch you more games?

@CherieCurrie3 They are still the pro-choice party. Young women today no matter where in the U.S. they live should have the same opportunity you had to live the life you wanted. And let's not forget how many times the Republicans in Congress tried to repeal Obamacare (60+).

@CherieCurrie3 Nice deflection. Let's get back to women's choice and women's health. Only 7 states are willing to shield doctors who provide abortions to out-of-state residents from prosecution. Guess what those states have in common?

My favorite part of this -- besides EVERYTHING -- is that the name of the game in white is on a sticker on the shrink wrap, which you can peel off (patiently) and reapply if you want. On the box Rock Hard: 1977 is in spot UV so you can really enjoy Jennifer Giner's amazing art!
