How the fuck did this article get posted with not a single picture of the subject matter in it?

I’ve already told my husband I want that phrase on my gravestone. It’s stunningly gorgeous—absolutely poetic in its cadence.

The best and most chilling moment of the first book was right before Jake dies, he says, “Go then, there are other worlds than these.”

It should definitely have been a tv series due to the length of the series and the complexity. I was disappointed after reading the first review of the movie, and this one pretty much cements my disappointment.

I think what we’ve really learned in the past 10 years or so is that Sony Executives exercise way too much control over their creatives, and that they almost never influence a movie for the better.

They couldn’t get spiderman right once the executives started getting more involved, and this seems to have had similar…

Sony. That’s the answer. They suck, and they’re desperate.

The worst thing about the movie was that it felt like they didn’t really want to make The Dark Tower at all, it felt like they wanted to make The Talisman and just didn’t have the balls to ask SK if they could. Best thing about the movie was when we all stopped paying attention and had what ended up being an eight way…

This book was a revelation after the incredibly dull, depressing fare that I had previously been assigned to read in elementary school. I swear, some English teachers actually want to crush all joy of reading out of their students.

As a pale freckled person (thanks, Irish heritage!), Kimby’s skin made me gasp outloud. Her chest screams skin cancer. Friends, take your sun precautions seriously. I’m 31 with over a dozen aunts and uncles - ALL of them had some variety of skin cancer by their 40s. Sun screen is your friend, please wear it. You don’t…

I WILL come at you. I only came to this comment section to confirm how terrible Halo Top is. It is absolute trash, and not an ice cream substitute. It’s more like a styrofoam substitute. I don’t understand why people rave about it. Would rather eat a little regular ice cream than a larger amount of Halo Top. Or really…

I’m an entomologist and I work with that beautiful specimen you have pictured, Ae. aegypti. To maintain a colony in the lab, I will sometimes have to feed them by sticking my arm into a cage and letting them go to town. My best advice to avoid getting a reaction is to NOT SCRATCH no matter how much they itch. Once you…

Now I don’t know much about Steve King but he appears to be a caricature of conservitism. Now I have read enough Stephen King to know that he is clearly being controlled by a far more cunning and insidious puppet master who I think is really Randall Flagg.

Here is the problem with your comment: in American they HAVE to have that proactive attitude. These threats are proof of why. As a European you don’t deal with an obsessive religious right that are in a mission to find new things to hate in a daily basis. You guys grew past that shit . America hasn’t

Who even says “normies”?

Nice essay bro, but what does any of this have to do with the doxxing and harassment? Because I see an article discussing the harassment of a fellow citizen of my country. You seem to see it as an invitation to create a transphobic screed.

I was expecting a long-winded narration of “I did this and then I learned.” Turned out to be “I did this and now i’m digging my heels in.”

Long-winded insane. That’s like the worst non-violent insane there is.

...You are genuinely insane.

This is a really thoughtful, well-written piece. Young people are capable of consuming media critically, and for those of us who are adults (however much of a technicality that feels like) should be giving them the tools to do that, instead of simply hand-wringing over it.
