By next week, she’ll have even fixed Wolves. 

Okay, the AVClub reaching the point where its headlines are overtly antagonistic towards the readers and commenters is pretty dang funny.

that new title for the Scorsese movie sounds like the Ghost World award bait indie flick within the movie:

I know one person who’s not here for this latest Beyonce joint

I think the biggest problem I have with post-deification Beyoncé is that her vocal hooks are either non-existent or just... meh. ‘Break My Soul’ comes close, ‘Virgo’s Groove’ does have a pretty good one but it’s sung by other people.

it’s a fucking great album. I’ve been listening all day and it keeps getting better each listen. Thique, Heated, Plastic Off the Sofa and Virgo’s Groove are solid hits. The album is littered with both love and critiques of America, and it’s just smooth fun that is a celebration of the queer underground and disco.

andrew dominik one of the best out right now. can’t wait for this mess.

The kids need to watch Talk Radio. It’s great.

Yes, but if you have Angela Bassett bringing the fury, it’s really hard to not share that with the world.

Is that a Seinfeld reference? If so, I would like to say that that is also one of my favorite line readings from a random one-off character.

Hey, moron! Dave Chappelle is hardly the only person in the country or world who shits on transgender people on a regular goddamn basis. Do you care, or are you just this addicted to being a stupid asshole on the internet? Allow me to break it down for you so you can really try to understand.

Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The discourse cannot hear the discourser;
Blogs fall apart; the clickthrough rate cannot hold;
Mere snark is loosed upon the world

OK, but that “at best” is pretty awesome.  Yes, Jordan Peele is the more successful of the two, but Keegan Michael Key is, by basically any measure, very successful.   It’s hard to imagine Desus and Mero would see that as a cautionary tale.  

[office] GALADRIEL: Close the door.

What is it you’re trying to achieve here?

It wasn’t the ending.  It was that they rushed it and didn’t earn it.

If the books never come out then they cant end the same way as the show.

Now Dave Chappelle’s saying we can’t say that he can’t say something, which makes it all the more urgent for us to say he can’t say it, which makes it urgent for him to say it and for us to say he can’t say it and him to say we can;t say he can’t say it.

See, I had a fairly different reaction to the story of Laura Lee. I’ll preface by saying I’m not an active, church going Christian, though I have read a fair bit of Christian theology. But I regard it, and apply it here, as an element of culture, not the dogma of a true believer.
