In a Time of Great Political Upheaval, Let John Oliver Endorse Some Things That Are Good

This is a scary year. There is violence around the world, Donald Trump is a presidential nominee, and the Taylor Swift–and–Kanye West flame war is devouring the internet. So John Oliver is here, on his week off, out of the kindness of his enthusiastic British heart, to tell you about some things that are good: animals wearing people clothes, for instance, and the 1999 John Cusack comedy Pushing Tin. You could put John Oliver web videos on the list, too, though of course Oliver couldn’t endorse himself. Unlike the gingham-shirt-and-tie combos he recommends, that just wouldn’t go.
