US foreign policy doesn’t give a shit about women. It’s not why we invaded 20 years ago. Women’s rights were used beatify the argument, but invasion would have happened anyway.

It’s weird how in some corners, Islam gets in the mix and some left sides tune completely changes. Because of the interaction, there is no group I probably have more problems with than Evangelicals but they have a point in that if a there is a christian group or person that even mentions the bible in something and he…

“This is a true love story. Compassion, servitude, and resignation wrapped up together beautifully.”

But that’s the problem with conservatorships: they’re self-reinforcing.

Maybe she’ll fuck up. Maybe she’ll be a mess after coming to terms with the fact that her family has abused her and used her as a piggy bank for decades. Maybe she will spend her money on Funkos and fast food.

but that’s one of the issues - people, including those with disabilities have to be allowed to live but also fail on their own terms. Its not up to you or me or anyone else to decide what “doing well” looks like especially when that’s (1) different for everyone and (2) not the legal standard for most folks including…

No jetski.

“Famous Women are Expected to be Conventionally Attractive and Famous Men Dont Have to Be” would be a better headline. 

A Gen-X friend of mine and I were talking about how this is almost the terrible logical endpoint of what her career has been. The musical superstars of my friend’s generation came from the grunge scene, they were sometimes messy adults who had their own desires and goals that didn’t always line up with what the music…

““What if they let her out of her conservatorship and the paparazzi starts chasing her again, only this time to say nice things about her?” I ask.”

It’s an extremely great habit that the rest of Hollywood should learn from. The reason you see a lot more folks put their pronouns in bios etc is because none of us should assume anyones’ gender. This helps normalize it for everyone.

I hope Daisy lives a good long time.

Out of all of the releases pushed back by covid The Green Knight was the one I was most upset about. A24 must be very confident in the movie, given the budget they would have made a killing even with a streaming only release.

Wild comments-section speculation time. Charles gives off strong “no kids” vibes. It’s sad that his position required him to have children, because he’s clearly a very self-centered person. Observe any casual interaction/interview. He’s incredibly incurious about other people, and remarking upon the world beyond…

I don’t hate GOT, I’ve just lost all interest. 

Glad to see someone figured out how to turn the lights back on, or film in daylight...

it's 2021, he can have inappropriate relationships with boys AND girls!

Remember the good ol’ days when Republicans just cruised men’s room? Pepperidge Farm remembers...

It’s standard most places in Asia.

As I understand it, wearing a mask when you feel under the weather but can’t avoid being out in public is the standard thing to do in Japan. The rest of the world really ought to emulate it. I know I will be from here on out.
