Patrick McGoohan reportedly told some people that Number 6 was in fact intended to be Drake.

“Doctor Who adversary The Other appears here as well”
The coat and tie thing — which wasn’t a joke — is also pretty damn problematic. Seems like “drunk while poor” is a bit like “driving while black.”
“Affleck’s one moment in Suicide Squad was fine. He didn’t really do much”
“asking whomst among us hasn’t participated”
You say it’s about racism, but there’s this weird site, totally unconnected to yours, that says it’s really about social media:

Reilly’s performance of “Mr. Cellophane” in Chicago, which was the first time I’d seen him, was riveting.
It doesn’t actually have the look or feel of an old movie. I don’t have the cinematographic vocabulary to describe what’s off, but I’ve watched a lot of classic films and the visual look is just off.
“I’m going to make a video that will remind people that I’m a good actor and that they miss watching me.”
I had a student turn in a paper that began “’Tis evident that ....”
Changing “broken landscape of my body” to “foreign topography of my body” is a good way to say “you can see why I fel the need to plagiarize, because my own artistic choices are kind of lousy.”

You know Jack Kirby existed, right?
I’d like to see a clear explanation of the difference between psychopathy and sociopathy. Different sites break it down differently, but the lists of traits tend to be very similar. (And, I’m sorry to say, my late grandmother is a fair match on most of them; hence my more-than-theoretical interest.)
“Kent State, where there have never been any issues with students and guns”
“holly-and-berries cups”
The dominant (though not universal) view in Greece expected men to be attracted both to women and to younger men (though the existence of those who preferred only women or only men was recognised). Being the “penetrator” (whether of women or of other men) was the “noble” role, reserved to the older male, while being…
“Socrates, Plato, and their interlocutors were all privileged aristocrats”
