She’s great, it’s always nice to see women filmmakers getting props from the film community.

Gotta keep up with my dumb DadJokes D.

Some trans men do. Including some who have legal identification that match their preferred sex, making them men in the eyes of the law (and someday in the eyes of just everybody).

pretty sure joni takes a spill every time she opens her big stupid mouth

the Democrat who’s doing all the stage make-up on speakers for the RNC

I know, right? So what if it is “pandering” to women. The movies have been pandering to any guy who will pay them for decades.

He could stop staring at barely legal tits, for one.

OMG I HAD FORGOTTEN PANTSBURNLEGWOUND.

longtime Iowan here. Grassley’s sister taught at my high school for 50 years. They are are nothing if not a dedicated family (but seriously, that’s the only “accomplishment” I ever hear about Grassley even among his supporters. Guy answers his emails!)

Yeah, I mean, welcome to language. “Colored” was polite in the past as well. “Words aren’t the problem” is a weak argument because once we’ve lost a word to widely-acknowledged slur status, it’s time to come up with a new word. If you’re against the notion of dismissing words that have fallen out of favor, you should…

I wish self-discovery articles were written only after something had actually been discovered.

It didn’t take a different turn tho. I mean, what the headline said is literally exactly what happened.

I think the sic is the author of this article indicating that it was misspelled in the Deseret News article.

It seems weird to me to give a sic to “premedidated” rather than just assuming that what was heard as a d was actually a t?

The best argument against capital punishment in cases like this is that it elevates him to martyr status among the human trash that applauds what he did. Give him three hots and a cot, show him the humanity he denied his victims, and prevent him from ever becoming a rallying cry.

It’s a great show but has nothing to do with this conversation and- to my knowledge- is not airing again until december and has definitely been covered by Jez within the past 5 years. Is BBC paying you to promote interest for the show? That’s really the only explanation for your left-field comment here.

er, because people like you harp on it? Because it’s a launchpad for her feminist campaign? because her launch to fame isn’t any less legit than a dude who put out a song 5+ years ago- in fact, she’s worked pretty hard building her brand and cultivating her image? If you’re honestly asking this question it’s time for…

Probably not, but that’s the problem with chronic Lyme: it’s something people believe in.
