I thought it was very pretty, and I love the idea. It just didn’t really resonate with me... maybe because I felt like it relied too much on “telling” the story to us, kind of hitting us over the head with it, instead of showing it through visuals and action. Maybe I’d have been a bigger fan if I liked the song more,…

Who says he isn’t? He’s just wearing them the right way this time.

In short, because people don’t like to use the gender neutral pronoun “it,” so they tend to use “he” instead. This doesn’t look like some nefarious plan to increase sales by making the raptors boys. It looks like lazy writing that’s evidence of some sexism, which Rob is blowing way out of proportion.

I feel like the producers who allowed this are the ones who ¨forced¨ PBS to postpone or cancel. The end responsibility was with them to keep the integrity of the show-not Ben.

Hamilton was a BAMF and deserves to be on money. Jackson was a genocidal maniac (good hair, tho). Only deluded conservative racists defend him. Getting Jackson off the $20 was almost as important as putting a woman on, in the original campaign to get it changed. Motherfucker does not deserve to be on our money.

See you at the Batman theater line in 2 years.

Zach Snyder gets a bad wrap. He’s a better director than people give him credit for. He’s just a crummy writer, and he hasn’t really ever worked with a good one. But almost all of his movies lift the material higher than the screenplay. It’s just that he’s worked with some really mediocre to bad screenplays.

Based on the show, based on the show! Please say it’s based on the show! (OK, I’m sure it’s not based on the show. I love that show....)

I was in Rosehill Cemetery in Chicago recently. It’s got a lot of Union veterans buried there & has several Civil War memorials to Union soldiers & the Union. At one memorial to an Illinois battalion, it’s bordered by cannon barrels placed vertically in the ground as a border, specifically captured rebel cannon…

I think the author meant the Old Slave Mart, where slaves were sold (and there is an admission fee). You are right that the market on Market street is different.

Buying pre-made food at Whole Foods is expensive. Buying produce and not-very-processed ingredients at Whole Foods is not notably more expensive than other regular grocery stores (if you factor in the organic), and some things are frequently cheaper. Wierdly, for example, Tropicana OJ is nearly always cheaper at WF…

How big is the uproar over Michael B Jordan playing the role? I’m only asking because the last time I read anything over this was when Jordan, himself, wrote a response to it; (literally) every other time I’ve seen the topic brought up, the purpose has been to criticize people complaining about it. (I don’t go on…

It’s such a shame, you know, to willfully miscast such a character. And with his long history, too. And it’s doubly insulting, since they got an English actor to play a Romani character, when there’s been so much bigotry perpetrated by the English. Oh, were we not talking about Dr. Doom?

Archimedes is credited for inventing the water screw, but there is evidence that it existed in Mesopotamia hundreds of years earlier.

Did you just read the headline... maybe the first paragraph... and then come down here to comment? The actual complaint is all spelled out up there.

You’re not giving yourself enough credit. Jews comprise even less of the population, and we’ve apparently taken over Hollywood, the banks, and the government!

Art is an industry, video games as a medium is no different than as an industry. My larger point was that if you want to make a game you should, well make a game first and foremost and make artistic and political points secondly. Some games, such as this one, seem intent on making a point first and foremost while…

I’m trying to remember where the domestic gross for JW is at. I remember the days when that’s all anyone talked about. None of the overseas markets had the importance they do now. That’s why movies like JW are so popular with studios—dinosuars translate to all languages.

Going to AskMen.com as a legitimate source of information in regards to men makes as much sense as going to Jezebel.com for feminist thought.

the concept of flag planting, which the US pretty much invented
