this was my first thought!

yeah, the anti trans stuff was a disappointing way to start off the new season. I hope they lay off that stuff for the rest of the season, they are better than that. Pam & Cheryl = pure crazy joy!

Bigotry against trans women.

I enjoyed it despite it starting off with transmisogyny (kind of something you have to expect from 90% of pop culture comedy).

Publishers (at least in Canada) Lament:

"Let's break it up and start fresh."

I walked over, told them to scoot over. After 10 seconds of dead silence I said so whats happening at this table? I get nothing.. I then explained it was my store and they should spill it...

Why is it forced? I hear this argument for why women and POC shouldn't be cast in things all the time and it never makes any sense to me. Just because the media presents white men as the default human doesn't mean that they are. Women aren't some sort of weird anomaly, we're half the population. If Doctors can…

I have to disagree. As a black person who, for a time, could not pick up a single book without encountering some throw-away line disparaging black people or using the N-word—even in books that HAD no black characters or where the terms and comments had absolutely nothing to do with the plot—being forced to…

False equivalency. Skin tight does not equal exposed skin. I don't know you apologists keep insisting that it does.

consciousness is an evolutionary fad, anyway

Eating right and exercising? All you need to do is take care of your coup, beware of boot-blacks, and laugh evilly at most things.

Here on the io9 Space subsite, we've run on the 36 articles on the science, and 1 on the shirt. We've got at least 2 more science articles scheduled, and will likely have many more over the next year of data-gathering and subsequent years of research-releases after analysis. For the io9 main site, they had an…

You were doing so good at making your point until you threw in the needless insult to those you disagree with. I'm leaving your comment as it's more generalized than personally attacking, but if others are wondering where the line is of what I'm willing to tolerate to maintain a civil discussion: this is it. You can…

He's totally free to rock all the pin up girl-covered shirts he likes but he's also free to experience the positive and not-positive reactions to s shirt that can be considered unprofessional and offensive to some people. Especially when working in a field where women are under-represented or feel as if they are being…

I'm pretty fed up with how every single movie involving Batman now has to be based wholly or in part on TDKR. It was good at the time, because it did new things, and opened the door up (along with a couple other comics like Maus and Watchmen) to using comics to tell a different kind of story in the mainstream. But…

This.

"Wow! I didn't know Bruce's parents were dead. Thanks for keeping me in the know, Batman V. Superman!"

-No film-goer ever

HOW COME GOD IS SO SEXIST THAT HE MAKES WOMEN WITHOUT BALLS? THIS IS BULLSHIT.

Batman is a rich white psychopath who beats up poor people for fun. He is not now and never has been a hero.
