Afaik JK Rowling has self-labeled as a TERF, or at least embraced the term, and regularly promotes TERF talking points. So I don’t see why it can’t apply to her just because she also espouses libfem beliefs.

I’ve only seen clips but I’m surprised this made it to HBO. They’ve always aired explicit content, but it’s not usually this...cheesy. It’s giving Showtime or Cinemax.

I think the difference is that Oz was actually a good show. People don’t start getting offended until they stop being entertained.

I’m screaming at the damage control. This is the Don’t Worry Darling of 2023 with worse hair.

It’s so boring. And I’m a person who finds him hot.

I think I pulled a muscle full-body cringing at this article. Did anyone ask for this weird ongoing bit of aggressively sexualizing mundane celebrity quotes? Just...no. Please.

Levinson’s worldview seems corrupt. It shouldn’t take degradation and suffering to make Jocelyn stronger.

The funny part is they don’t want those women to work or have degrees either. They literally just want free bangmaids with no rights or freedom to leave them. It’s almost kind of a relief when they say the quiet part out loud so we can all point and laugh.

Cast members have been making these exact complaints about reality TV for decades now (grueling filming schedules, inadequate pay, psychological manipulation, pressure to be drunk constantly etc.) Yet it never stopped a single soul from auditioning. As long as there’s a line of desperate people out the door willing to…

He initially tried to sue her for a lot more. I think she would’ve settled if she believed she was in the wrong. But she clearly believes this guy is scamming her, and is going to court to clear her name and make an example of him so no one else tries this with her.

He initially tried to sue her for millions and then dropped it to 300k when she refused to cut him a check. What’s your point?

I’m so confused by Jezebel’s insistence that Gwyneth must be at fault because she’s a rich white woman. If we’re using identity as a metric for credibility, he’s...a rich white man? And based on the evidence given so far, it’s equally plausible that he’s ambulance chasing for cash. This is just one example of the…

Ah yes, I too enjoy inventing false implications for the sole purpose of getting offended on the internet. Besties?

I’d rather not watch either, but I get your point. Most “normal” people can envision circumstances where they might snap and kill someone. Serial killers exist at the far end of a spectrum of social rage that is at least remotely relatable. Molesting a child, for anyone who isn’t wired that way, is beyond the pale and…

Watched the first season of this show and found it ok, one of the better recent ripoffs of “The Stepfather.” Watched trailers for the subsequent seasons and it looks like they just...recycle the same plot line over and over? Am I missing something? How are people still watching?

Do the CEOs of these companies value true inclusivity? Or do they just value money?

I loathe the phrase “elevated horror”, it’s the new “torture porn” in that it throws a bunch of random movies in the same vaguely defined bucket that tells you nothing about what they were actually trying to do. Anyway, the Skinamarink trailer looked so boring I couldn’t be bothered to sit through it, but this one is…

I don’t believe “consented on tape” should be proof of anything in court without additional contextual evidence. Anyone scary enough to commit the crime in the first place is scary enough to intimidate their victim into fake “consenting” just to escape without further injury. Not saying that’s what happened here, but…

...because we can’t have more than one movie about teenage boys and their friendships?

It’s disgusting how American police operate above the laws they supposedly exist to enforce. Shooting or beating an unarmed person to death shouldn’t result in “internal investigations” or some bullshit. It should be INSTANT arrest and prosecution if a cop kills anyone for any reason other than immediate…
