My dear boy, why don’t you just try acting?

More than anything, I just hate the fucking score, as well as the fact that this is what all Broadway shows sound like now. It’s like the cast of Glee fucked the house band of a megachurch.

“You’re only 14.”

This response to DEH will never stop being funny.

So Phylicia Rashad’s rape apology counts as a nexus event, right?

Very VERY tired of rape-supporters co-opting language from queer people, e.g. "speak your truth."  No.  That's got to stop now.  

Soul is a real mixed bag, the movie actually started out being all about the afterlife world place. Focusing on a Black musician was a very late addition and it really shows with the weird body swap story that takes away from his identity. It also kind of feels like reheated concepts Pixar has done before with their

Honestly, the Supergirl one is understandable - they’ve been hitting all the tried & true Lois & Clark romantic development beats since Lena was first introduced to the show. I mean shit, they even met when Supergirl saved Lena from a helicopter crash, a la Superman 1978.

Nothing here is “modern day McCarthyism”. Its the free fucking market. If I don’t want to support a dickhead’s work, I don’t have to. That’s entirely my First Amendment right, just like it was his First Amendment right to support those appalling candidates.

I thought he was Friar Duck?

That’s not what he did, so that’s a fascinating takeaway.

I feel like men have had that green light for far too long already - but in this case, wasn’t it (ostensibly) an accident?

If there’s a nonwhite person who lost their job for masturbating at home, I will defend them. If there is a woman who got fired cause her masturbating I will defend her. I don’t care about Toobin’s background. He’s a New Yorker working for the New Yorker, he has swarthy skin and an ethnic background I am clueless

But why is he complaining? If he eventually doesn’t have an audience because we are all so “woke” and he isn’t, then that just means he’s not making content that is relevant any longer. His argument seems to be more “societies taste in entertainment is changing and I won’t have a seat at the table because I don’t

“Cancel culture” is the cry of people who are unable to defend their premise, because they can’t, or choose not to, argue in good faith. It’s why we can’t have a free marketplace of ideas, because that would depend on people’s shitty ideas quickly dying on their own merits, instead of incessantly pivoting to

Apparently you aren’t, because if the black guy is the MAIN CHARACTER, then the “black guy dies in the horror movie” trope doesn’t apply.

The fairy tale is allegory. It’s about a step mother who is threatened by the beauty of her step-daughter and does everything she can to eliminate this threat to her reign over the father. The coma is symbolic of the child being locked away and denied maturity. “Love’s First Kiss” is symbolic of sexual awakening,

So people are unhappy with that...”

You don’t have to fake this college freshman wokeness this time Barsanti, nobody cares about this.
