I think the bigger hurdle for acceptance of Latinx is that the use of “x” after a consonant is incompatible with existing Spanish phonology. In Latin American countries, I can see how this inserting of an Anglicized pronunciation into the language would carry an air of linguistic imperialism, however well-intentioned

The deceased son, Joseph, publicly accused Jerry of beating the kids when they were growing up, a claim Jerry denied, but I don’t think the other kids stepped up to refute Joseph’s claim. In fact, when Joseph died, Gary publicly blamed Jerry for his brother’s emotional problems.

Looks like that Dune remake has found its Baron Harkonnen.

Pffft. Daniel Day-Lewis would have had his mechanical heart installed by now.

That’s no proper Princess Diana tribute. There’s not even an inflatable E.T. in sight.

Yeah, I can’t see how stopping at a vending machine on my way home from the subway improves on stopping at an actual bodega on my way back from the subway.

The important question is whether or not the mechanical rhino birthing scene would have survived intact.

It’s known that most presidents end up getting drugged ...

If you think this is great, you should hear James Woods get downright wistful about cocaine.
