It was just a terrible way to end the arc of someone profoundly suicidal and depressed. Even if they assured us it was a heroic sacrifice- (1) his arc was he wanted to be *happy* not a hero, he thought being a a hero in a story might make him happy but he found out stories were more complicated than that and (2)…

which plays less prominently in the book because there, Mia is white.

That’s all kind of the point. Q wasn’t the Chosen One, even though the show appeared to set him up at the beginning. Even in the books, Q was mostly a supporting player. Everyone else had more skill and power.

I’ve grappled with mental illness in the form of anxiety and depression for almost my entire life. Q resonated…

If you get invited to a huge Hollywood party, you’ve gotta check it out at least once.

A genuine plea: can we put Joan on the serious-topics beat (her piece on the California fires was moving and beautiful) and take her off the pop-culture-snark? Because it’s not where her talents lie. Half her snark is incomprehensible, and the other half is just wrong.

he’s a transphobic asshole.

So let me see if I understand what’s going on here. One of the biggest writing organisations in the world, in one of the most prolific and successful genres in publishing, is dealing with a microcosm case of the same industry-wide issue with white supremacy that has kept authors of colour fighting for years for…

So. While reporting on a serious debate about racism & discrimination within the largest writer’s organization in the US - one with a majority female membership - where there’s about $3 mil on the line plus 40 years worth of industry connections & infrastructure, you decided to go flippant & condescending.…

Did she “look”? I heard “But you’re nothing like him.” Either way, though it’s possible the real Elliot’s face doesn’t look like the Mastermind’s, that would contradict last week, where we view things from real Elliot’s time-loop perspective and he was still played by Rami Malek.

We are also talking about trans identities, medicine, and science, which are my things. And I will point out here, again: The way you are defining sex is not congruent with how professionals define it, and the distinction is only important in that it helps people delegitimize trans folks.

Here’s the thing, though:

This is inaccurate, though. Sex is not based solely on genetics, and people who believe you cannot change your sex are not “scientifically accurate”.

“Objectively”

Snicker.

I don’t have anything made with leather or canvas. I have a degree in art history, an eye for design and I’ve been collecting 50ies pieces for years. I know what I’m doing, but thank you for mansplaining something I’m an expert at

He’s gone. She’s not. It’s not saying he’ll be back. It’s saying there’s a new sheriff in town. Meet the new Boss - not as blue as the old boss

The headline is very misleading - “a Man and a Racist” and then just a photo of Farrow. While not as direct as “a Racist Man,” it can easily be misinterpreted. (See “a gentlemen and a scholar” etc.)  Next time, might be worth posting a split image to show Gretchen Carlson, too? 

Replying here because I’m grey, so my apologies for the notification, Lantern:

at a guess i’d say they don’t trust Warren on the basis that she hasn’t given any indication that she would be anything other than a status quo president when it comes to foreign policy and the military, whereas Bernie has always been vocally opposed to the military industrial complex (though how that would translate…

Totally not the same thing. Violent video games are about a bunch of different subjects that just happen to have violence. Joker is about exactly the kind of entitled white man who goes around mass shooting people because he didn’t get his way and his feewings got hurt.
