I didn’t say they should, I’m just interested in knowing how much of the  change is due to good ol’ sexism and how much of it is the perceived status symbol of the person you're contacting needing an assistant. 

It’d be interesting to see if the same result could be achieved with a female “assistant” to see if the reason why it works is because it’s a man, or because having an assistant to start with adds an extra layer between people (making complaining pointless) and it introduces a sense that the person is busy enough they…

It doesn’t. If that’s what you took away from it that says more about you than it does about the documentary.

Those books which haven’t been written yet? You’re right, they don’t. D&D and GRRM stated for years that GRRM told HBO where the books were going to end, so until we see someone say otherwise, there’s no reason to believe that the ending is different.

I heard it was based on Boardwalk Empire.

I hope to some day love someone with the intensity some people feel like they must hate entertainment products. Calm down man.

You don't know what to tell them because you just hope it'll be different with no proof that's the plan?

Depends. The only parts I took issue with were who took the throne - the entire sequence leading up to that choice felt pretty contrived to me - and how underwhelming the Night King confrontation was. Both of these can easily be changed or fleshed out.

> And now, in the wake of the video’s deletion on Facebook, she’s claiming that Jesus will destroy Zuckerberg’s website if they don’t reinstate her videos.

It's really not. 

I doubt they see it like that. Streaming services don’t have long-term contracts and generally all their content is available on demand, so these tentpole announcements are used as enticements to try the service rather than lock you in. You might not think that having CBS’ library is important to you, but you sign up…

God this has Lena Dunham written all over it. 

Yes, she would’ve seen a never ending series of investigations into Russian meddling and asking for foreign interference in our elections. That’s how it works. Those things happened TO the Trump administration.

To my copyright-inclined brethren: I’m not familiar with how neighboring rights work for master records, but can the owner of the master license it out even if the artist opposes it?

Or they aren’t so delusional that they think a simple mistake is evidence of racism.

Crying about everything being racist is why stuff that is actually racist gets tuned out and let’s people like Rubio get away with shit when they do actual racist things. The side profile of the two men looked so similar that the PHOTOGRAPHER labeled the image as being John Lewis years ago.

You must be fun at parties

Because a bunch of idiots crying racism at everything means that when fucked up shit happens (like the stuff in Portland and the attempted lynching in Indiana) that stuff gets tuned out.

Yeah I’m speaking specifically in relation to this one photo, a side profile that made them look pretty similar, even if their faces look nothing alike because of the cheek bones.

Oh no, Rubio is definitely a racist little shit. I just don’t think he was being racist in making this specific post, if for no other reason because there's nothing to be gained from making the post and using the wrong photo.
