Maybe I’m late to this party, but why would there have been a need to have live rounds on the set at all? I’ve read several articles on this incident and none address that point.

You’re hanging with friends. Someone pulls out their new handgun to show it off. They give it to you and say, “Don’t worry it’s not loaded.”

It’s a little unfair saying “not good enough” for Alec Baldwin to take the word of the person whose sole job on the set was making sure the gun wasn’t loaded.

If any part of you is “grinning,” I think you’re the complete asshole in this situation.

Alec Baldwin was not responsible for loading the gun. While I’m sure he has a tremendous amount of guilt. He was an actor handed a gun by a prop master and told it was safe.

I can definitely understand Baldwin feeling a tremendous amount of guilt for this, but the rest of your statement makes no sense to me. Assuming he was using the weapon as intended in the scene, how is this his fault? I can’t imagine it’s standard practice for actors to safety check their props. 

When are these tech geniuses going to realize that free markets, algorithms, blockchains and “radical honesty” can’t solve everything, at some point one has to make an ethical (or unethical) choice?

like you say, it’s not meant to make people think it’s a newly discovered old film, it’s an aesthetic designed to elicit feeling (that you resent, apparently)

The original Bebop actually did use weird media-mixing from older genres, largely in its commercial-break eyecatches, so this is one of the few times it actually does fit the source.

JEWS IN SPAAAACE!

Man, I had forgotten about the word ‘Netizens’.

Cannibalistic Gilligan's Island just reads like a Robot Chicken skit.

Ah the rich man’s favorite weapon. Suing everyone. Trump loves it.

He’s getting rich by performing for the same people who would happily call him the N-word if he stopped the act for even a second.

“Please, explain the concept of hate speech to me!”

My stranger danger alarm always goes crazy when I see this guy.

Let’s just skip all the nonsense and just use the Handy Dandy Dino Ironbody Translator:
