I disagree, I mean I think when she played herself, she was kinda forcing it too much. It didn't feel 100% Kate Mckinnon. Normal Kate McKinnon wouldn't act that way, the mimics resemble, so I applaud Kate Mckinnon for the talent, but it wasn't enough for a Kate Mckinnon.

Wow. What a biased take on the GameStop situation. This is what happens when too many people short the same stock. Not just GameStop. Short squeezes have been happening for close to a hundred years. As long as people have been able to short stocks, there have been short squeezes. Next to the idea that companies are worth Close to their Book value is crazy. Investors always consider the future value of a company. A company can be losing money today and tomorrow But investors can see that it's going to be enormously profitable in a few years. No one was complaining when Amazon was going through the roof while losing money year after year. Just as a note I did not make any money profiting off of shorting any stock. I'm too conservative for that . But it was fair. What was unfair was The Brokerage is blocking long Small from buying and selling the stock. They did not prevent large investors from continuing to trade the stock. The stock market Work correctly in this situation. However it was not working already when we allowed shorts Too Short more stock than the company had. Naked shorting should be illegal and shorting A share of stock that's already been shorted should also be illegal.

@@SeanFinucane so...you're just going to ignore the fact that Gamestop got rid of their debts & created a bunch of equity, because of this increase? Stock valuation is not just in the market, the company is legitimately doing better because of it. Their ledger strategy is available.

[@motorologist]

@@SeanFinucane This is the main thing I hate about what's happening, people who don't know how to value stocks now think that there is no limit to stock valuations. No sympathy for the hedge funds here, but they and the algos are making money off of both sides of the stock price... the shorting is just a hedge for their long position for many of them.

With all due respect to Cecily, you just can't write satire that's crazier than the real Marjorie Taylor Greene.

[@maxjohnson8025]

Yikes on some of the 'banter' like the gun kate commented on. Nancy Pelosi, etc.

[@trickwillis]

Cecily is great at finding the delicate balance of representing these roles truthfully while embracing their odd behaviors, voice and energy. MTG was similar to Melissa Carone the election fraud witness in December, and I want to see Cecily portray the insurrectionist realitor from Texas who is crowdfunding to pay for travel expenses now that she lost her job. Cecily has taught me there's a renegade rich blonde MAGA lady characters that exude strength through blatant ignorance & brash statements

[@proman3578]

@@trickwillis i feel like it was too challenging to be able to satire absurdity. For those characters less is more. All I saw was the " girl you wish you hadnt started a conversarion with" she should just emulate instead of satire.Tina's Palin's style. All that said, I love Celily.

[@kengeorgejones6855]

Yes. I'd rather they just keep her off SNL, especially since SNL sometimes ends up trying to make these people seem likeable or fun to get laughs. Fortunately that didn't happen here, but it still isn't something I want to see.
