But there’s no denying that had Bernie been Bernadette you’d have to get tied to a stake to feel the Bern.

She was for subway tokens before she was against them.

Gosh, sometimes you are really funny, and other times you are kind of mean. I wish I could figure that out.

But don’t you want to be taken higher?

I don’t think it’s bullshit at all. He feels like he is supposed to be a voice for them, and he feels personally responsible for that. If he gave his ticket to a black lives matter protestor, that wouldn’t be a person speaking on behalf of the victims. And it would be really crass for him to ask one of the sexual

I was kind of hoping that Ruffalo wouldn’t go and would pull a Brando if he won. But after reading what he said, I definitely get why he’s conflicted and feels like he can’t stay home.

I want all the baby pandas!!!

Yes. :)

I can’t imagine how Concussion survived the Sony email hack.

Wait. what? Do you even know what Spotlight is about? We all pick and choose our battles. I don’t see Will Smith standing up for the child victims of Catholic sexual abuse so obviously he hates children and thinks they should be raped, right?

Hollywood is a fucked up place when it comes to diversity. How creative people can have this huge blindspot amazes me.

I don’t blame Mark Ruffalo for wanting to attend and for being happy Spotlight was recognized.

You need a high impact sports bra for that kind of painting.

“Except I’m in a movie that’s representing a whole other group of disenfranchised people who have no voice in the world and this movie means so much to them.

Chris Rock should still host the Oscars...as Nat X.
