Animal Control is good, you cowards!!

That’s interesting and definitely adds some context to my feelings about how the Kens were treated. Still felt the ending “joke” the narrator said about the Kens was... unproductive to say the least.

That’s not entirely true either. The issue in Kentucky has a lot more to do with the fact that too many people just don’t vote at all, especially not in presidential election years. There’s also the fact that the national democratic party has all but abandoned supporting left-leaning politics in the state (unless…

Kentucky Republicans hate women. Kentucky Democrats oppose these policies, Kentucky’s governor vetoed it, and the majority of Kentucky voters this past midterms voted to protect abortion rights in the state against a ballot measure that would have changed the state constitution to be explicitly anti-abortion…

I’m an environmental scientist/policy analyst. What are you talking about?? Is this really a biological essentialist case for being anti-vegan? Plenty of people are vegan and live normal, healthy lives. Soybean production is a danger to the Amazon but that ignores the myriad of policy, industry, and geopolitical…

“Williamson has a “beloved public persona”? Citation needed.”

The fact still stands that in many cases, these kids won’t even be in high school yet (which let’s be clear is no objective marker of the maturity needed to maintain both working, now extended hours, and studying for school).

I’d argue 50+% of 14 year olds are in middle school

Let's be honest, the women from 5th Ave weren't making it clap even when they had BBLs

I think we overestimate the idea that the president at any moment could press a button and set off a nuclear Holocaust. Trump was one of the most emotionally unstable, ego-driven, irrational political actors we have ever had... and he basically ran a fairly standard Republican presidential administration. It seems…

But all politics, even personal, has to be negotiated. So, you need to assess the risk of their old age with the benefit of... an actual political agenda that can better the lives of the vast majority of people in this country. Considering where we were in 2020, voting for Warren or Bernie (and, sigh, eventually Biden…

This seems revisionist. In 2020, it seemed pretty clear that the best options for Democrats from a progressive agenda perspective were Bernie and Warren (who is similarly aged). Both of them also (at least ostensibly) were more sharp on the campaign discussing political matters than most young adults are... ever. I…

The reddit posts are one thing (even though he’s not the first nor will be the last celebrity to post cringey b.s. online). But, the Chadwick Boseman comments and Mark Wahlberg “defense” are taken totally out of context. For one thing, it is a fact that Simu Liu and any POC lead in a superhero/afro-futurist movie will…

Naruto is 100% pro military authoritarianism. Or, at least, pro a status quo that is military authoritarianism.

I don't think this is fair to Promised Neverland. The manga gets pretty radical in its back half. Not necessarily socialist, but definitely embracing a radical veganism meets Murray Bookchinian social ecological approach to freedom and solidarity. 

Wait... So we’re not cool with Pete Davidson anymore??

Isn’t the issue that it dramatically affected the ability for sex workers (predominantly working class, queer women and femmes) to make a living AND hasn't shown to be effective at protecting kids from exploitation? Sure, pornographers can't use Pornhub as a hub anymore but don't act like there aren't 1000s of porn…

Wow, wasn’t expecting the “these people suffering from an environmental disaster resulting from corrupt corporate greed and gross regulatory negligence on the part of federal and state officials are actually the ones at fault because... *checks notes* they had too many kids and didn't go to college, I guess" take

How do you know that they’re in showbusiness/fashion industry?? The only thing we learn about them (which is provided in Royal because in the OG game they’re just straight up predators) is that they want to have Ryuji perform in drag. There’s no indication that they’re in fashion or even work at a drag club other than…

In fairness, the Persona series has exhibited homophobia for a while in way more blatant ways. If you clicked on almost any of the links posted in the article you would find evidence of the straight up homophobic scenes- such as the predatory gay couple in Personal 5- throughout the series (or at least the Hashino era…
