Japan has almost zero to little care about her social media posts tbh, theyve been dealing with Kamiya being a xenophobic dickhead for years now. this is def about her asking for more money and businessmen getting offended that she dared ask for more money( a very frowned upon this in jp,especially among the older…

I’d bet my next paycheck one part of that NDA is not revealing her pay for the part.

No one is talking about any of this. In every post I see it’s all about Taylor getting screwed. I’ve seen some of her posts and they’re it great, especially if she’s supposed to be playing a strong female character.

I have heard several Devil’s Advocate arguments that are causing me to reexamine (note: not fully reverse) my sympathies for Hellena Taylor.

It seems much more complicated. Hale is almost certainly being paid more than $4000. Taylor’s resume, at least on IMDB, ends with Bayonetta 2 and her appearance in Smash, after being a fairly prolific actress prior to that.
Hale is incredibly easy to work with. I’m wondering if Taylor is not. You don’t usually hire…

Hard to make money when she hasn’t done any creditable roles in 8 years. 

She was obviously offered much more. She is union as well as probably THE most well known woman voice actor around right now. In fact its probably because platinum had her as an option, they ditched Taylor. The low offer was probably just a way for them to ensure it was her that sad no rather than them firing her.…

Definitely more than just her side of this story. She could have raised all of this publicly (or leaked it) when the game was still in development, to give her leverage, but instead she decided to take her shot a week before release. Why? What’s the whole story here? Were they planning to drop her for legitimate…

Your second point as been my take away on this matter too. There’s no way Hale would take on this job for only 4 thousand dollars. My guess is this is another Kojima situation where they really wanted the more famous person for the role, but instead of simply cutting her out like Kojima did to Hayter, they low balled…

I feel like people in the comments are missing the obvious conclusion that Kamiya just didn’t want Taylor voicing Bayo and lowballed her intentionally to have her back out. Not that I’m condoning this behavior, but this seems less about an industry-wide problem (though that is definitely a real issue) and more about a…

Nothing like being inclusive of the view that girls should be forced to die giving birth after their uncle raped them.

I stopped watching Maher when he started using every excuse to suggest that Democrats should throw trans people under the bus for the sake of electoral expediency. He actively resents their existence.

Bill Maher has been off the deep end for a long time. He joined the idiotic chorus of if you don’t like my offensive jokes it’s because you’re soft, not because my offensive jokes are cliched and bad years ago.

There is a single sentence in Bill’s tirade that admits this.

It’s more than that. Bill claims gay people are “doubling every generation,” from 1.5 percent in the 1940s to 10+ percent today (suggesting, I don’t know what, that they aren’t really gay, they are just looking for attention or some other reason?). But I suspect that the percentage of gay people are the same across…

In other news, Bill Maher ended his recent New Rules segment of Real Time with a mostly dumb, arguably awful take on trans identity in the US.

It’s not even “not being an asshole,” it’s “not being a bigot.”

Yeah but there’s a difference between a comic who isn’t to your taste and a straight up, well documented bigot. 

Grant Gustin waits by his phone ... 

the people of hilo hate them and they’re also trying to buy a house there. they’ve only been arrested twice but the number of times the cops have been called on them are in the double digits.
