You’re right but it’s more about how much effort the audience needs to do in terms of suspension of disbelief.

It is garnering a lot of attention because Mulaney was well liked by so many people. This fall from grace has made people question what they liked about him in the first place. It isn’t just about gossip. It is a side effect of people trying to come to terms with suddenly being disappointed with someone they respected.

Until very recently my employer had one female manager who would testify that anyone who filed a sexual harassment claim against management was lying... because she was blackmailing someone very high up for sexual harassment. Anyone else's report getting investigated would have ruined her grift.

Dottie definitely dropped the ball on purpose. There’s absolutely no way she would transfer the ball from her glove to her right hand while falling down otherwise. The catcher will have the ball in her glove to make the tag and only take it out afterwards to show the umpire that they still have it. Otherwise they’re…

I really appreciate your comment. I like that Trebek and longtime staff had a commitment to making a quality program and promoting a good workplace. It’s terrible that Richards was brought on to executive produce in 2020, the year after Trebek publicly disclosed his cancer diagnosis. While Trebek was undergoing…

If not being in full control of your emotions is one of the legal elements for a conservatorship a lot of us better hope no one drags us into court.  

It seems like so many people take Allison’s refusal to even consider just leaving as some frustrating problem with the show, when it feels like the entire point. It’s easier for her to imagine killing him than to tell him to go fuck himself. Kevin’s not a calculating mastermind plotting to control her. He’s a piece of…

The sitcom gimmick is terrible, and the show does nothing at all with it.

This is still interesting, I have no real idea what it’s doing exactly but the sit-com/real-world device is still compelling. Hopefully this is leading somewhere satisfying.

If this is the Kids film I’m thinking of being discussed here, then it must be mentioned that Clark had an enabler, named Harvey Weinstein. Disney, which owned Miramax at the time, would not release the film, so Harvey set up a dummy label, Shining Excalibur Films, to distribute it.

kids isn’t even larry clark’s worst film (ken park, anyone?). larry clark and harmony korrine’s obsession with teens is disturbing.

But Felice is not obligated to respond in a way that folks find “gracious”? And I don’t think people would be as demanding of such if it were not a creative as beloved as LMM.

Felice Leon didn’t ask for an apology. The most marginalized of us don’t enjoy suffering. What I see and hear is the pain of hearing that your home, your life, your experience (long invisible) will be faithfully represented...and it’s not. In a place like Washington Heights, where you see a world of chocolate beauty,…

Except that Chrissy would direct message Courtney Stodden, in private, and tell them to kill themself. That is not edgelord, troll humour for the masses. That is private, ghoulish behaviour. And she directed her insults to Stodden for a period of about eighteen months. That is persistent harassment toward an…

Or maybe it’s because the youngest kid hit 18.

Ms. Lopez, this is a Wendy’s. 

Seems like he watched about half of Breaking Bad, and went “I have an idea...”

Sixth sense is for ghosts and shit, seventh sense is for abuse and abusers.

Today’s moment of “Holy Shit I’m OLD” is hearing that not only did the author not know about these bags, but that they were discontinued nearly *eleven years ago*. I would have sworn the Sun Chip horror bags were from like 2018. 

Good to know that I’m not the only one. I also heard that some restaurants use potato flakes to stabilize condiments like toum.
