Excuse you, Reid. Dr. Chuck Tingle. He didn’t spend a decade earning a PHD in holistic massage from Devry University just to be called Chuck. 

His vice-governor is just as bad, if not worse. I seem to remember early on that was “some talk” in Texas that the MAGA morons were souring on Abbott in favor of his Lt. because he (Abbott) somehow was showing weakness by taking the barest of minimum of COVID protocols, and thereby admitting that COVID was actually…

“Tivo”? What is this, 2002?

I wouldn’t wish anything bad on Abbott, god forbid. But if he drops dead from a sudden brain hemorrhage, I hope it’s on-camera so I can Tivo it, make popcorn, and watch it over and over again.

God Bless Chuck Tingle

My first and only ever published fan letter was in Tom Veitch’s Empire’s End (the letter was absolutely FAWNING over Dark Empire II, to which Empire’s End was the sequel) as an 11 year old immigrant kid.

The article does a little bit of a disservice to the concept of the West End Games RPG keeping the flame alive from 1987, and — more importantly — creating the “bible” that the LFL folks running canon (unlike Star Trek works) would more or less consistently refer back to...

It’s not like Rogan had an issue producing his podcast before the Spotify deal. So I dunno why the argument is “he’s being silenced.”

I agree that Padme ever agreeing to be with him was crazy though, imagine what would happen if you told someone you killed 30 people, even if a few of them were responsible for something horrible.

I mean, Anakin’s arc ends with his son recognizing he’s still a good guy after he GENOCIDES HIS SISTER’S ENTIRE PLANET. Star Wars movies are completely ethically fucked. The further they move away from the central ‘heroic’ dynasty, the better the property gets (TLJ, for example).

Yeah, I don’t understand being surprised by the reveal that the evil desert savages actually have a complex culture. Anakin’s choice in that scene is intended to be disturbing, an act of genocide. The audience knows from the outset that he becomes a fascist, the general of a regime that literally kills whole civilizati…

I used to really enjoy this website, back when I was Burl. I too stand with the writers and editors who are getting the shove from this sick-minded company and its doughboy CEO.

Holy cow, thanks for alerting me to this.

Find someone who loves you as much as Jim Spanfeller loves fucking people over.

I can’t delete my comment, so I’ll make this post. G/O Media sucks and treats their employees like shit. I feel bad for those who were pushed around and pushed out. As much as I can, I stand with those editors and writers who are getting screwed over. It’s a shame. This website used to be wonderful. It had a culture…

That’s Rogan in a nutshell. He show is a variation of “don’t listen to me for medical advice but this other guy over here is worth listening to” and then usually invites loons.

Holy. Shit. I had no idea about any of this. What a rabbit hole I just went down and spent 2 solid hours distracted from work.

This. This right here.

Maybe not the best article to link as Naomi has a huge bone to pick with Vice over their coverage of her. Obviously not blaming you, as it’s a bit obscure unless you’ve been following her for awhile.
