PREACH! It's a weird kind of naricissm that can be almost impossible to see from the outside because these people do the right things for the wrong reasons. Each act of kindness/empathy/do-gooding isn't a gift; it's a request, sometimes even a demand for praise. At best, they totally lack self-awareness, at…

Just wanted to say - don't engage with geekymitch any more. Someone above posted that the Good White Person is the analog of the Nice Guy. The pushback is narcissists lashing out when their source of attention/accolades is being threatened. If they can't brag about being the bestest, kindest, smartest, most…

I have acknowledged TWICE (and will do so a third time) that the the voice actor's compensation was likely in line with industry standards and therefore "fair." I'm not sure what else I can do to communicate that simple point to you. That you're arguing so vociferously about something I agree with you about is...…

I conceded that her compensation was probably in line with industry standards and "fair" because of the strength of the unions in the film industry, so I'm not sure exactly what beef you have with me except that I pointed out that there are norms and common practices that devalue people's work, lower wages, outright…

I was responding to the notion that "gaining experience" is a form of "fair compensation". It isn't. Also, having agreed to the compensation has no bearing on whether it's fair or legal. Desperate people will agree to almost anything. I don't know enough about how voice actors are compensated to know if what she…

I can't believe how many people buy into that nonsense. If you're working you deserve to be compensated fairly.

Came here to write this, and you put it much better than I would have. Unrelenting impoliteness and bludgeoning people with your unsolicited, nasty opinions isn't "real talk"; it's being an asshole. I agree that women in certain cultures aren't socialized to be direct and no-nonsense, but overcorrecting in the other…

I'm a fan of his, but your comment almost made me fall off my chair laughing. He really is one of the whitest white dudes ever to commit an act of whiteness, so I get where you're coming from.

"Hmm hmm" was a childhood euphemism for vagina.

Love your handle and avatar!

I used to scoff loftily at the Cumberbitches too (he looks like an artist's representation of what an alien who's only heard second-hand accounts thinks a human looks like - that's the kind of shit I would say). But along the way I caught feelings and have tried (to no avail!) to stave off the fluttery feelings he…

Co-sign. It all makes him more adorable... He's my kryptonite.

Thanks so much for posting this! I'm guessing they were originally a Vaudeville act?

It's honestly gotten to the point where I can't even laugh at him any more or roll my eyes. There's just something really sad and pathetic about the whole thing that your picture sums up perfectly.

For real. SATC has not held up. I was in college/law school when it was out and thought it was fun. I don't really have a problem with the characters having been terrible people, it was more how no one else recognized they were terrible people. I was really surprised when I took my head out of the sand and realized…

I've always realized that being tall (6 foot) with boxer's shoulders protected me. And thinking back to college days - I had short hair and was almost always dressed in baggy clothes (this was the late 90s) - my night silhouette presented as "tall, athletic male" (read: might be able to kick the shit out of you) and…

"Just because you think you have a god-given right to be a horrible person online without having to face any consequences for it doesn't actually mean you do."

Ok.. That is really creepy. Like really... Who has the time to be checking county records?! I barely have time to properly groom myself! That is an insane amount of effort to put into gossiping about a stranger.
