cool cool; I’ll just reiterate that privilege is real, the existence of social-media-famous people is not indicative of a shift towards pure meritocracy in media and art, trans folks are marginalized (no scare quotes), and parody is fair use. surely this comment will survive.

juan is a transphobic little whiner lol

lol if only there were receipts on all this; instead you deleted it all like an aggrieved little boy. pro tip: this victim mentality won’t get you far.

“everyone gets the same chance to speak up!” says the guy who dismisses every dissenting opinion

nobody’s engaging with the premise your rant is predicated upon because it’s patently false, presented in bad faith and as an immutable fact. nobody’s gonna engage with such an incel take (you introduced the word to the thread, only you; the fact that you’re projecting that assessment belies how you’re coming to this…

*complains about identity politics and uses “marginalized” in square quotes* “i’m not triggered by trans folks! please don’t put in the newspaper that i’m triggered by trans folks”

parody is fair use, ya silly goose!

“surely the fact that some people are able to claw their way up from the bottom of the pile negates the idea that some people are born with a fast-track to the top. I’m quite smart!”

He didn’t reveal who those “certain people” (plural!) actually were and it seems unlikely that he will in the future, but for the record, his co-stars for the majority of the show were Bryan Cranston, Justin Berfield, Erik Per Sullivan, Jane Kaczmarek, and Christopher Masterson.

is that the actual cost of a ticket or are you just being a crank

Beyond the bonus tracks, is the point of color variants really to get people to buy multiple copies of an album? As a vinyl purchaser and pre-order-er, my impression is more that different retailers issue variants to draw in customers; the labels predict ten thousand sales and issue ten variants of one thousand…

It’s weird when folks chalk the downturn to the lack of written material, as some of my favorite stuff (e.g. Battle of the Bastards, a certain explosion) came after the book material had run out. I do think they vastly improved Dance With Dragons, though.

but Confederate never happened. And who’s saying “we” forgot it? Have you forgotten gravity due to the lack of mention in this article?

I wasn’t surprised as other G/O properties have shut down their comments section, but I was surprised considering most of the writing and subject matter here is angled squarely towards driving people to fight in the comments.

very sad to discover the comments were only temporarily removed from the site. I thought I was free from this hell.
