Check out the linked articles (and the linked articles within them) like this one, as well as (especially) their comments sections:

I recommend checking out the article above and the source interview.

From hearing him on podcasts, including his own, Kumail is clearly a huge fan of comics and nerd culture; you could tell he was excited to get to be a part of the magic. It sucks so much that, even before we’d seen a frame of the movie, it was apparent he was getting fed into a machine that’d chew him up.

Wow, first “i miss episodic tv” and now this. You do realize books have been fodder for filmic adaptations since…the beginning of film, right? Your recency bias is showing.

baby, i know it.

Nah, i have a personality beyond “redditpilled incel”

Damn that’s not even the first time I’ve seen him talk about c-sections 

relentlessly replying to absolutely everything is detail #1

Yeah, between yer butt cheeks!

For sure. A big part of this nonsense is the slippery slope argument that if this can happen to a high-profile celebrity it can happen to you and me, but i doubt there are many/any random nobodys experiencing anything similar, especially as most of these cases involve an abuse of elevated power or visibility.

so they were very much within their rights. shit that’d be a valuable fact to include in the article.

lol they couldn’t find a universe where he wasn’t a violent creep i guess?

oh shit i wouldn’t fuck around with *disney* lawyers. i’m sure they made sure they were legally cleared when they fired her in the first place.

shhh i wanna see him have to hire back those twitter employees he fired for criticizing him

some fella from Oz with just a diploma to his name

Exactly; I want to pull for these books but they just don’t hold the same pleasures for me as other fantasy novels. The writing is poor and the focus is on worldbuilding. And I love the emergence of women writers and protagonists! Broken Earth was emotionally shattering for me because it was well written. Priory of

This article very much positions several *juggernaut* book series as beleaguered underdogs. Nerds dominate culture yet we act like we’re still getting stuffed in lockers.

It should be asked and I’ll say it: no. If this happened to Post Malone he would have the opportunity to turn himself in and the ensuing troubles would take the form of, and be reported as, pesky “legal troubles”

with that in mind you also have to ask whether this would’ve escalated to an arrest, and if that arrest would’ve taken place so publicly, if it involved someone who wasn’t famous. it’s also worth pointing out many other prominent people would be given the opportunity to turn themselves in, depending on their skin tone.

I can’t help but read this comment as pro-chewing/fighting/humping.
