Has he had...some kind of work done? Maybe not, but something seems different. Secondarily, I also think film is important.

Is “ unitard” still okay to say?

I think Gina Carano should star in it. As The King, to be clear.

I know. Like at least 30, right?

You mean like...the apologies that this site whined about women not getting for years? Take a day off, guys.

“Monumental tribute” = B+? What constitutes an A book, exactly?

Even with that, though—and admittedly, there will always be counter-examples—I feel like one reason it was easy to condemn her was because the progressive narrative wasn’t as compromised there; with things like this, or DeSean Jackson, or frankly a number of prominent African-Americans who say that “Farrakhan’s a…

It’s hard to articulate this, but I know a lot of fellow Jews feel similarly: If it’s anti-semitism, and especially if it’s someone belonging themselves to a marginalized group expressing anti-semitic thoughts, the outrage, then things like this get treated differently. I’m not even saying he shouldn’t get a second…

Maybe this is a slightly different type of sketch, but the first thing I thought of re: the football song was Deborah’s time:

Having seen it, I would suggest one crucial difference is that that argument made you completely understand the fights they’d been having on these things before, and why this one would escalate the way it does. Here, we have none of that.

I don’t disagree, but I feel like if this convinces one critic not to review every single film through the lens of identity politics, it will be worth it. Then again, someone else at the NYT reviewed this, so maybe A.O. Scott hasn’t even seen it.

Because what he’s been accused of...essentially, not being the best boyfriend, but not actually doing anything that wasn’t consented to...should not be what ends a career.

I mean, did you not book a ticket to Kramer’s next set?

I remember when Chris Christie took a picture with Obama, after Sandy, and the Tea Party went crazy. At the time, most liberals (fairly, in my mind) dismissed them as being hysterical and for creating a hard line over the appearance of something in place of actually getting something done.

‘Someone Wanted Me Dead Just For Existing’

if anything really new or mind changing will be brought from this

When the best journalistic reference you have is a Buzzfeed list article (someone should come up with a word that combines those two things!), the silliness of the position kind of speaks for itself. Although the star couldn’t have put it any better.

Good point. Exactly what I say whenever people downplay the idea that Bret Easton Ellis killed people.

Not “allegations.” One letter too many. But with the lineup of people participating, I’m looking forward to a very evenhanded discussion.

My new criteria for who to stop paying attention to: People who say that the Golden Globes are irrelevant yet can’t shut up about their favorite diverse project not being nominated. It’s time to pick a lane.
