Speaking of “Married...With Children” I was surprised at what Amanda Bearse, who played the neighbor Marcy, was willing to put up with. She had producer and writer credits so presumably she could have done something about all the chicken legs and flat chest jokes if she had wanted to.

I have yet to see an example of this abuse beyond “But Juliet is white?!?”. If there’s nothing worse than that I’m tempted to say the theatre company is just drumming up publicity. Anyway unless they use slurs how can you tell if they’re upset because she’s Black or just because she’s ugly? Lots of people just love to…

It’s gotten somewhat better despite the numbers. Just more conmen out for easy money. Growing up in a small Southern town we were pretty much the only family that didn’t go to church. Dad was an atheist, Mom lapsed Jewish with New Age hippie stuff thrown in. I live in a similar town now and my kids tell me maybe half…

People are just going to call it an E-Wagon regardless of what Mercedes says.

Squid Game with automotive YouTubers of all types as contestants and WhistlinDiesel as the Host. If they do well they win their dream car. If they fail the host gets to destroy their personal cars.

Astonishing as it may seem celebrities, just like normal people, do not make all of their relationship decisions based on the news of the last six months when the relationship in question has lasted more than a decade.

This:

I would imagine the quote is from their hometown paper or broadcast station so the writer assumes the audience will recognize the school and understand that the couple are locals or year round residents if it’s a vacation area.

Given its intensely personal nature, any faults in The People’s Joker are nearly indistinguishable from its appeal.

There isn’t any connection because that whole phrase is marketing babble. This album wasn’t made by any influences from Western movies. Like all albums it was made for the artist’s overwhelming need for money and attention. Art isn’t complex, it's a cash grab. The complexity is a smoke screen for people like you.

Wouldn’t most of a “Diamond Dogs” movie just be the increasingly cyborged protagonists getting splattered by alien machinery? Kind of like a sci-fi “Saw”. Also did anyone ever find out what was in the damn building? I remember the main character ended up as a pet but maybe Reynolds mentioned it in something I haven’t…

Yes. When I recommend Banks to people who like science fiction I tell them that this author has good writing as well as good ideas. So many authors will have an interesting concept and then flesh it out with all the life and wit of an instruction manual.

I think in most jurisdictions ‘abuse of a corpse' covers it so we don't have to go over all the sickening things a person can do to a dead body.

Are you following me around, you Harry Potter level piece of fake Latin? I’m touched by your devotion. Like one of those chattering squirrels in the park, or maybe one of the old men that yell at them.

I was wondering if some highly motivated person would realize that Dobbs could easily be reversed by a different Court and that such a thing can be created at the cost of their own life/freedom. Everyone knows how you recall SCOTUS Justices. And why? The same reason only one dumbass insurrectionist died on January…

Before it hits the bridge you can see that the ship is on fire and it's listing in a way that looks like it's starting to sink.

I like how this guy seems to have a blank expression anytime I see him outside of a movie. That’s great, people want acting they can pay for it.

Hall of mirrors/Spidermen pointing at each other situation. When your job has been, for more than a decade now, amplifying whatever nonsense gets clicks on social media then every spat in an insular corner of the internet becomes some memorable occasion that ‘everyone’ knew about, participated in and remembers. It’s…

I think that a lot of the policing of language that is not generally accepted as slurs or bigotry derives from an idea that language informs a person’s opinions directly. Like the theory stated above, that a passive term puts blame on the individual to whom it’s applied.

The railroad companies should be doing more to stop this although it seems like putting their cops out at major jump on and off spots would be a better idea than having the employees on the train worry about it.
