That’s his wife, you monster!
Also in Trump’s former line of work he has undoubtedly asked favors of people that are illegal but that people let slide. Trump’s new to the presidency, but contrary to Ryan’s statement he seems very practiced in making shady requests and establishing quid pro quo relationships.
Elitist? Eh, maybe a little. Liberals seem to take way more joy in being more knowledgeable than their “opponents,” which perpetuates the divide.
What is it they say whenever a show featuring “diversity” is cancelled? That the network is a business and only needs to worry about money, and that they don’t have an obligation to serve a minority of the audience? That business doesn’t care about identity politics?
I think there’s a strong possibility that he sees any question like this as an attack, and he assumes she’s been sent.
Considering the number of people quitting or turning down appointments, as well as the caliber of the people who have accepted, I think it’s more likely that only terrible people are willing.
Yeah it’s racist AND incomprehensible. It’s not just the spelling, either.
Yeah that’s absolutely right - but the point is the reason it’s confusing to read or isn’t spelled “Latinex” or “Latin-x” is because it wasn’t written for saying it out loud, it was just replacing the final letter in “Latino/a” with a variable.
Not my intention to be passive aggressive! But “asking how not to offend people” is literally requesting sensitivity training, i.e. guidance regarding a particular sensitivity, and she says the word out loud in the video a bunch, as well as discussing the differences between terms like “Latinx” and “Hispanic.”

The thing I’ve always thought was cool about “Latinx” - which is usually pronounced “Latin-ex” by the way - is that it was clearly created for textual communication; like “Latin@” before it, it’s a word that came from conversations that were mostly happening on social media, and so didn’t need a pronunciation, or at…
“The Prestige TV Show Hot Take Economy is extremely bad and dumb, but so is arguing that the way that we talk about and depict our world in fiction is irrelevant and not worth talking about in general. Granted that many people do it in a way that is stupid and wearying - that doesn’t invalidate the broader principle…
That said, new canon has been doing a pretty remarkable job of integrating the universe, so we can expect things like KotOR-era capital ships and Naboo fighters.
Could be. I wondered briefly if this was the Death Star II throne room and they were both about to die. (Remember that old Tales of the Bounty Hunters story where IG-88 uploaded his consciousness to the Death Star II?)
I’m actually having a really hard time understanding what’s happening there. Looks like Biggs, but might not be. And the Guard...pulled him up from that pit? And then tossed her end of the rope into the pit?
Is that Clancy Brown’s voice?
