A friend of mine’s husband told me a story about how he was studying abroad in a fairly provincial part of China. There was some checkpoint on a road somewhere, and the guards wouldn’t let him through because he was a white American. Finally, an officer came out and said he could pass...if he played them in…

This right here is the danger of trusting corporations to be “woke”. Disney is a spineless, amoral enterprise only doing this because that’s the way the popular winds are blowing, and they only care about diversity as far as it makes them money.

I think we’d all appreciate it if the aliens just decided to keep her.

On Earth. This was a universe-wide extinction event.

Here’s what I don’t get about the Eternals customers: Thanos snapped half the universe out of existence, including presumably half of them. Their whole thing is that they don’t get involved in human events until this movie, even though very recently the most genocidal maniac in the history of the universe literally…

I didn’t have a properly cooked steak until I was in my mid-20s, because growing up my mother, who is a DOCTOR, insisted on all steaks being cooked well-done in order to avoid food poisoning.

I’m sure Kumail’s wife doesn’t mind.

Digimon was one of those rare things I was obsessed about at the time but which I have absolutely no memory of now.
