Miley seems to have toned down the provocative behavior in recent years (not that I follow her that closely, but I can't remember any major online brouhahas).
She performed a cover of Pink Floyd's "Wish You Were Here" on one of the "SNL At Home" episodes just about a year ago. In September 2019, I was paid to be a juror in a mock-trial version of the defamation lawsuit brought against Elon Musk by the cave expert that he'd called names on Twitter (for daring to say that Musk's plan to rescue the boys trapped in a cave in Thailand was unworkable). Musk wasn't there, but all I can say is that he was lucky that the cave expert's lawyer was Lin Wood, who became infamous a year later for trying to overturn the 2020 election. > On Apr 25, 2021, at 7:28 AM, Tom Wolper <twol...@gmail.com> wrote: > > On Sun, Apr 25, 2021 at 5:27 AM 'Dave Sikula' via TVorNotTV > <tvornottv@googlegroups.com <mailto:tvornottv@googlegroups.com>> wrote: > I've been noting that, since 1975, I've never missed an episode, not even in > the deepest dregs of Wiig or McKinnon.
