Her exclusion might have more to do with Arquette having spent her last few years in Hollywood trying to burn the place down, attacking other artists and trying to out them (even when they’re not gay.) I’m not exactly surprised the town wasn’t fond of her.

Yeah! “White people paying for their sins”.....no one over simplifying or generalizing here at all....death to whitey!!!! /sarcasm 

This is kind of an idiotic comment, and I say this as someone who’s not that over the moon(light) about the movie. Sebastian and Mia are not supposed to be your stock musical archetypes, the entire spin of the narrative is that they’re “ordinary” contemporary people who romanticized the Hollywood that once produced…

Yes, I the tenor of this article is terrible but fits with a certain strain of thought that pervades much of the Gawker universe. It is very counterproductive. I could see if the problem for the author was that the music wasn’t good. I don’t know. I didn’t see La La Land (and never intended to either) but it seems…

Somebody should go back in time and tell all the white people who ever made jazz — including the ones who did it before anyone even started calling it jazz — that they should stop.

Otherwise known as “a Royale of weed.”

When something is clearly harder for another person, I think that it is best to avoid using phrases like, “there is no excuse to be bad at this,” and “you didn’t get the job done.” Also, this article says that men can get women to orgasm likely through using their fingers, oral sex, and deep kissing. Yeah, those are…

The funny thing is, as much as pop culture would like to think otherwise, men do not actually talk much with each other about sex. Maybe some hints or vague boasts, but details run into TMI territory pretty quick among men. I think that for many, it therefor comes as a surprise that many other men are less giving in…

Well, how do you tell them? I am a man, and yeah, you probably should say something, but there is a right way and a wrong way. If you ask for additional oral or hand stimulation, that’s great. But if you say, “You didn’t get the job done, I’m leaving,” that’s the wrong way.

Fighting domestic violence and sexism isn’t a zero sum game - “MRA” aren’t the only group of SJW where a sizable number of members don’t grasp that simple truth.

Mary Kay was a monster

There’s also the issue of studios not wanting to release a movie during a year where the competition, for whatever reason, would be bad for the movie.

Selma, had they produced it soon after the script was written, would’ve had a release that fell in the 2010-2013 range. It’s competition? Lincoln, The Iron Lady, The…

“Socialism states that you owe me something simply because I exist. Capitalism, by contrast, results in a sort of reality-forced altruism: I may not want to help you, I may dislike you, but if I don’t give you a product or service you want, I will starve. Voluntary exchange is more moral than forced…

Yeah, but no. Sub-cultures are very capable of bullying those that the dominant culture would consider ‘normal.’ Groups that consider themselves outside the norm of society can (operative word is can) be very protective of their identities and use social exclusion or emotional violence to exclude those who they feel…

This isn’t really true. I don’t know what happened in those locker rooms, but I can tell you that all types of people can turn into assholes when they feel they have strength in numbers.

The post actually states the opposite:

How many more?

That’s not the case at all inside micro communities. Whomever is different will be the one that will likely be “cast out”. I’m not saying her life was rough but I totally believe she was treated as an outcast.

She’s a black woman, who also happens to be straight. I’m not sure how I’m supposed to feel about this, or where to direct my outrage. Hopefully someone will tell me.

Or in an equally idiotic assumption, she innocently but firmly rebuffed their non-stop wolf-like sexual advances as they constantly eye-raped her in the showers. See how dumb it sounds when you make idiotic assumptions?
