I didn’t hate it, I just don’t know if you can call something a “comedy” show if the main purpose or intent of the substantive content isn’t to make people laugh. I won’t argue against people whossay she’s a skilled performer, masterfully juggles tension, or that she can be funny when she wants to be—I’m just saying…

Eh, I think the headline is pretty misleading. I understand how they get to it based on certain comments she made, but I don’t think this lady, if asked, would take the position that “video games literally would not exist without queer people.” It’s hyperbolic thing to say, and to amplify that one comment into the…

I get the sense they don't care much for the police either.

“Vin Diesel and The Rock have overcome their hot, beefy, bald man difference.”

I have a confession to make. Apparently I can’t tell the Lawrence brothers apart. I read that “Boy Meets World” thing about Matthew Lawrence and immediately wondered why they’d mention that but not his breakout role in “Blossom”. Woops!

Look up the common law elements of battery.

Renée Zellweger was married for like two years 20 years ago; no kids. She seems to be fine. Helen Mirren didn’t get married until 1997 (at the age of 52,) has no kids, she was doing fine before that. Charlize Theron andwTara Reid are the same age; Theron has never been married and only adopted her first of two…

The statistical unlikelihood of any rapist facing justice is certainly a factor that weighs into the analysis. On the other hand, I think it’s also the case that your garden variety rapist is somewhat shielded by their likely anonymity; with a joe-nobody rapist, you could probably get stricken for cause any potential…

Really? The first one was high profile enough, particularly given the hung jury, that I assumed the state would have an easier time pulling a stacked jury pool. To say nothing of the fact that the prosecution basically gets to hone its case and strategy between attempts.

I was referring moreso to the style of her delivery, and even more specifically, to the “riptide” extended metaphor she has going. Like I said throughout the rest of my comment, she seems to know what she's talking about.

We can issue snarky invective all day, but the real question for me is the following: is this working/is this making her money/is this increasing the salability of her brand?

To be fair, it was the fifth highest Memorial Day weekend opening ever, which is pretty damn good, and it has yet to be seen how successful it will actually be. My whole thing is that it’s probably too early to declare this *or anything* ‘movie of the summerʼ.

The claim from OP (which, to be fair, was a little muddled, ambiguous, and incoherent) *appeared* to be that people left the island/came to the U.S. with some amount of hoarded wealth. That was simply not the case.

“New York attorney Anthony Orlich learned actions that demean Black women do indeed have consequences.”

The hypocrisy and irony are unending. As a people, we climbed a ladder to relative success and prosperity... only to then help pull up the ladder so no one else could use it.

Musk will probably take the position that the Grey checkmark is the safeguard against mistaking government officials for parody accounts. I think that’s a pretty good argument.

As a first-generation descendent of the people who made it over here at first—like in the early 60's—yeah, the Cuban community is rife with white supremacy (Enrique Tarrio is Afro-Cuban, and was the leader of the Proud Boys. Wonders never cease.) However, they did not make it over here with any of the wealth they were…

True, I missed Transformers. However, the last couple of Transformers movies (Last Knight and Bumblebee) didn’t break the $1 billion mark. I think it’s possible here, cause kids love Transformers and dinosaurs (and, also, I have it on good authority that “Grimlock do good numbers always!” — that’s a little G1…

I’m sure this movie will do fine, but isn’t it a little early to be calling this the movie of the summer? Fast X has been out only a week longer and it’s already done over half a billion globally. There’s also another Spiderverse movie coming out this Summer, as well as a Pixar movie, a Mission Impossible, and this…

I’ve seen the term widely used for any celebrity in entertainment (seems to be the only context in which the term is used,) who has found success in the same or similar part of the entertainment industry as an already successful celebrity parent or close relative.
