Oh my! Satanism was the alt-right before the alt-right. In fact, noted cuck-hater Davis Aurini looks suspiciously like Anton LaVey.

Isn't modern Satanism just a combination of pop-Nietzsche, Ouija boards, and Hot Topic baubles?

Lord Xenu? Cruise did get to her.

When I watched this commercial last night, I thought that female-thing at the end was hastily put-together CG or like one of those Snapchat filters that makes you look (more) like a ghoul. I also think the animatronic is good, if creepy.

Not that the ceremony isn't self-aggrandizing, but Oscars hosts only get a few thousand dollars for the night.

A follower of David Worthington, I see. https://www.youtube.com/wat…

I've been told — and this rumor, it should be reiterated, is unverified and should accordingly be viewed with a healthy skepticism (as all rumors should be, of course, for those who are empirically-minded) — that one commenter (with whom many here will be familiar) is not, in fact, a Pokémon that, in the stead of a…

The "Never Cry Wolf" guy? No, I don't remember and didn't know that. Thanks for sharing that interesting tidbit of information!

Yes! Not all the titles on FilmStruck have them, but a fair amount do. Here is a list of them: https://help.filmstruck.com…

I agree with this, unironically.

Genius requires introspection. Trump bringing Bill Clinton's accusers to the second debate was not a result of introspection, but the instinctive tit-for-tat vengeance that dominates Trump's way of thinking. That this instinct served him well during this particular moment is not indicative of his skills at…

Watch gay porn. That way you avoid the problematic gender dynamic found in straight porn.

This sounds like what I would have said as a Bush-hating, I-read-Noam-Chomsky's-Wikipedia-article junior high student to condemn America's invasion of Iraq. The fact that he is using this argument to justify Putin's actions in Chechnya, Georgia, and the Ukraine and his execution of activists and journalists makes it…

That's not what poststructuralists argue though.

it is nominated for its cinematography, but, yeah, Silence is great and deserves more praise.

I seem to recall the definite article being suspect too.

I was a gay little boy and cried along with Halle Berry when she won her Oscar. Now I can't be bothered to watch more than half of the middle-brow films they nominate every year.

I think you mean Tammy Duckworth! They're both wonderful senators, but Baldwin is America's first openly gay senator. I'm sure Fox News can hire a Log Cabin Republican to trash her.

In the end, all I know is that on average every Western country provides healthcare to more people, for less money, with better results. The current profit-oriented system (pre- and post-Obamacare) results in less money in my pocket than I would have if I were to live in any other Western country. Is that a form of…

The fact that, according to the CBO, 20 million people will lose healthcare and premiums will increase dramatically when the ACA is eliminated suggests that, yes, Trump's pen will lead to violence: people will die and people will lose money. Let's debate whether that is a good outcome. Presumably, some people will…
