I wonder what the hispanic SNL cast members think of these recent developme-

Ugh. STFU movie man. Just STFU.

Wow, just the multiple levels of entitlement at play here is amazing. Filmmaker being “oppressed” by a critic? Cry me a fucking river. The privilege of making and putting out your art goes hand in hand with criticism. Successful artists who whine about critics or the content of the criticism are the worst. Criticism…

Alas, the tragedy of the successful artist, to become the target of critique, critique that does not just examine the surface questions of whether a work is sufficiently “awesome,” “gnarly,” or “badass,” but critique that strikes truly at the heart of a work, critique that deconstructs, that examines an artist’s…

Clearly taken from the legend of La Quentessa, a ghost who wanders the earth searching for the children she drowned in mango habanero salsa.

Right - but this sounds like you’re one of those exceptions noted in the piece - where you were friends before, and then mutually agreed to be friends after. Most people aren’t so lucky.

Fuck this planet.

I went to college with a gorgeous guy. Stupid gorgeous, total bohemian type (but hygenic). After a lot of hanging out and whatnot, we had a minor one-time liasion of sorts. Later, I found out he had a girl who may or may not have been a girlfriend. Years later, long after he moved away, social media brought him…

Every time I head about someone going on a “mission” trip to Central America, I shudder.

If you think it’s the Catholic Church in particular, you need to do some research into what evangelical and fundie churches do in third world countries.

Don’t worry everyone, I’m sure some of GM’s one-issue assholes will be along presently to remind us that an amendment passed 200+ years ago by slave-owning misogynist pricks is more sacrosanct than these lives.

Let's not forget their Ebola freak out over nothing.

Exactly. White people.

Yeah it’s just a three day weekend that most people don’t think about. Denver is an AIM (Amercan Indian Movement) headquarters so there’s usually a protest every year. It’s disappointing that Denver wasn’t one of the cities.

Cool.

I’m already imagining him being called out and the first thing he says in his defense is “What, I was just joking around!” And then ‘something, something, women are sensitive’ being mumbled grumpily.

The complaint there was not with the word “rebel,” it was with “slave.” Gender oppression is not the same as racial oppression, and it’s not okay to claim the suffering of another group as a way to bolster one’s own cause, PARTICULARLY when the context is promo for a movie about a bunch of women who were often…

People routinely say that women “feed off of drama” or love drama or try to create it. It’s a blame tactic and it’s condescending.
