‘the upcoming live-action/CGI hybrid movie’

Area woman blames exposure of her sociopathy on truth serum.

Racism is also the only pre-existing condition covered by Trumpcare.

There’s a world of difference between hating Islam and hating Muslims. Maher either hasn’t figured that out or doesn’t give a shit.

“In bed with Islam” is not an accurate representation of... well, anything. Progressives in the U.S. tend to defend Islam on the basis that Islam gets unfairly attacked all the time.

Nah because the joke of the sound is that its suppose to be about a white boy trying to write about Africa with no actual experience or knowledge of the place other then what he saw on TV or read in books.  Also the song rocks

Especially when the whole grooming thing feels farfetched? Going to a “zen place” when you’re doing something you don’t enjoy is a hugely common trope. Sure, the whole “dogs genitals are being grabbed” changes the situation a bit, but I don’t believe it would make a child be more susceptible to molestation.

While the quotes above are very good things to be teaching children, whenever bringing up the National Center On Sexual Exploitation it should be noted that the organization is also known as Morality In Media and have been a right-wing religious organization from the start. They were part of the movement to remove…

The Plot Against America is by far the easiest entry point—it’s a very clever take on alternate history fiction, and the main characters are all likable and easy to root for (which is not true of many of his other great books, Portnoy included, where you have to be willing to spend a whole novel with characters who…

Hmmm, Groening looks a lot like Steve Bannon if Steve Bannon weren’t constructed of dried corn husks.

It’s true that the South was a Democratic Party zone pre-1960s, and particularly during FDR’s administration, but like much of the US at the time it was also surely susceptible to populist and anti-Semitic rhetoric, baring in mind that it is the home of the KKK.

“But while Star Wars might not explicitly exist in Peter Quill’s world” - except is completely does since he exists in the same universe as Spider-Man, who directly referenced Empire Strikes Back during the airport fight in Civil War.

I wouldn’t say it’s Harrison Ford worship per se... it’s just that Pratt is now what seems to be many directors’ go-to “generic likable action movie guy”, which is precisely what Ford was/is.

I didn’t like him - he was an easy person to dislike - but I liked The Ghost Writer (read it in the New Yorker) and The Plot Against America.

I say props to Nathan Fillion for making a badly written character seem rounded and giving him growth. Because he clearly only had one character note: “Mal Reynolds is principled.”
What are his principles? Whatever this episode needs them to be!

He was scheduled to be the guest speaker at my brother’s graduation from Bucknell, but at literally the very last second he refused to say anything and the dean had to just awkwardly keep going with his own speech. It was awesomely dickish.

Captain Jack Harkness when he’s on Doctor Who and definitely not when he’s on Torchwood.

The Plot Against America wasn’t even that much of an alternate fiction.

That’s good to know, bearing in mind how poorly his other novels have been adapted for the screen.
