“but maybe we don’t want to look in that mirror just yet.”

That’s a reason for more people to unionize and fight for better wages, not an argument against this action

Considering how many shares Iger has, he is that shareholder with an insatiable desire for wealth. But it’s easier to blame a faceless crowd I suppose.

Over 60% of Americans own homes. Also the middle class used to have no problem buying homes when wages were fairer, before actual elites in executive roles were given carte blanche to steal their labor again.

I look forward to him outlining what the alternative was other than letting studios own your image forever while keeping your residuals to themselves. Because it’s not like there weren’t months of negotiations and the studios basically saying “nope.”

I’m a row?

Ah yes. It’s that guy. I’m pretty sure that starring in one of the most popular movies of it’s genre counts as acting but, by all means, go ahead and shit on the guy if it makes you feel good.

I’m actually willing to go to bat that Vol. 3 is the best MCU entry since Infinity War.

Hey now! Snyder always films in color. Just one, sepia, but in various shades.

Well, James Gunn films in color, so it’s already a step up from Man of Steel.

Agree on Fillion. I don’t expect to see much of him. He’s basically become to Gunn what JGL is to Rian Johnson, or Bruce Campbell is to Raimi. Just a buddy he tries to squeeze into all of his movies, even when it’s a small “Oh shit, there he is!” role. 

In third place, we have a… particularly interesting newcomer in Sound Of Freedom, the new film from Angel Studios that is, at the very least, thematically QAnon-friendly

Jonah Hill made certain demands in the relationship. Those demands were bad: super unreasonable, petty, controlling, and born of deep insecurity. You could even argue they were misogynistic or narcissistic; that’s all fine. And for his own sake, if nothing else, Hill needs to get over whatever is making him this way.

The phrase “emotional abuse” always raises an alarm for me. Not that it doesn’t exist, but the range of different things that could be described by different people as “emotionally abusive” more or less guarantees that it will serve as a catch-all term for a lot of things that most people would not consider to be that.

On an individual level, diversion programs have unquestionably reaped significant benefits.

Might be worth noting that Simon is only calling for leniency in the case of “one of the four individuals arrested in connection” with Williams’ death. Could be that this is actually a pretty nuanced and well-researched position.

Fentanyl is only a problem *because* of prohibition. If Michael K. Williams could have purchased pure heroin, held to FDA standards, from a brick-and-mortar shop like the ones where most Americans can now buy cannabis, he would have done so.

If you copy the link and paste it, it isn’t too hard to get to the site.

If there was ever one character that best aligns with the Wire’s creators, it’s Bunny Colvin. 

There are no winners here. Decriminalizing drugs will allow addicts to get treatment in a safe, humane way while diminishing the chances of poisoning themselves and of committing crimes of desperation. It’s working in Portugal. The bonus is that we can empty our obscenely full prison system and have plenty of room for…
