For many, he was an example of what more equitable storytelling might look like, a model for how to create compelling women protagonists who were also very, very fun to watch.

She is a grown woman who put gorilla glue in her hair. The fuck are you talking about?

Since the original video surfaced, Brown has set up a GoFundMe and there have been talks of her exploring legal options since Gorilla Glue doesn’t specifically warn against hair usage.

Agreed. This is a long-unequal dance that has required two partners. What’s different now is where much of society sees as an appropriate balance. Is now “equity”. Not IMO, but I think I’m in a minority position here. Is it better than before? Yes, but as this snippet illustrates the bar has been historically low, if…

As an old Potterhead I loved this skit back then and I do now. The sexism was the joke here and you laugh at the mens idiocy not at Lohan.

The two aren’t mutually exclusive. You put a statement of importance online for the world to see, maybe take a second and make sure it’s not open to people saying “was she high when she wrote this?”...It distracts from the point. 

“find joy in essentially providing free advertising” is different than running a for-profit business of it. The dude who makes a fancy costume “for the joy of it” and wanders around the con gathering “cool costume, dude!” comments; isn’t the same as the person selling their services consistently & repeatedly.

That’s terrible. I can’t stand the guy, and he is by most accounts a loathsome douchebag, but I would never wish cancer on...almost anyone.

Come on, Ray. You effectively quit. At least stand by it.

Ray Fisher makes a lot of serious claims without ever providing any serious evidence.

Dude, you said “White lives are not a thing” and ““White” is just an imaginary blanket that light skinned people have covered themselves with.”

I think very few people have PLAYED the game in the way that we would associate this with his personality.

I think Link being a caveman burning everything is what is more like most players’ experiences

I think the internet has mostly settled on “feral screaming lunatic launching himself at the castle within 10 minutes of waking up”

I know we all share kind of the same head-cannon for different versions of Link and their personalities, but if BotW Link doesn’t eventually become remembered as the theoretical- and quantum-physicist Link who constantly mulls over mental equations concerning trajectory, aerodynamics, and other matters, then we’ve all…

Tell her that if she’s ever been in the kitchen while you’re cooking meat, she has inhaled some meat particles, and thus cannot call herself a vegetarian.

$10 says she didn't even know who Tracy Chapman was before this.

For what it’s worth, Minaj has always contended that she didn’t know she was sampling Chapman when she recorded “Sorry,” and was instead using elements from Shelly Thunder’s “Sorry”—which is a reggae cover of Chapman’s song

They didn’t have to support it.  All they had to do was quietly let it happen. Instead, they were major assholes, and used their usual lies, misconceptions, and frivolous legal threats to stand in the way.

I still think expecting Nintendo to support a emulated hack of their game to give it netcode is a bridge too far. Give them hell for Smash Ultimate’s netcode being trash, and I’ll support that all day.

I don’t know anything about this kid or his parents. They could be saints for all I know. Maybe all this happened organically. Maybe the kid loves this shit. Maybe the parents are putting their kid’s long term happiness and well-being first and foremost, and the millions in profit are a nice result of embracing his…
