the escapism it tries to provide appears entirely intended for white consumption

I think the show just wanted to do a fluffy period romance but said “hey, let’s not make it all white people.” They never wanted it to be a show that dealt with bigger things like race. Sexism and financial differences are typical romance novel fodder but not dug into deeply. I get wanting more but they decided to…

Isn’t Crotch Toxins playing one of the side stages at Coachella this year? 

Environmental toxicologist here - it won’t rinse out, it’s used to water proof clothing.  However, these are large compounds that are not likely to cross the skin barrier in high enough concentrations to cause the cancers associated with PFAS, those are caused by this chemical primarily in drinking water.  So unless…

Whenever I see that many tattoos, I immediately think, “That person is absolutely frightened by the world around them.”

Quite aside from the YouTube drama, that may be the single worst, most taste-challenged collection of tattoos I have ever seen in my life. Is that Kurt Cobain as Jesus on his chest? Or is it a self-portrait? And the Jaws shark rising up from his crotch??

Vaginal Steaming? Fake Women’s Health solution.

Her mother raised her and her sister Lee from day one to do one thing and one thing only: Get a rich man to take care of you. She was raised to see other women including her sister as nothing more than competition - she almost had no choice in the matter, but she really is one of history’s most glorified gold-diggers. 

It drives me nuts that it’s not abundantly clear that exactly 0% of Pokémon go players use the augmented reality function. Go to a raid or ask your kids about it, it literally makes the game worse and kills battery, people who say niantic have the world of augmented reality gaming cornered haven’t ever played a…

Bernie. Was. Never. Going. To. Be. President. Bernie. Is. Not. A. Democrat.

I don’t disagree that this likely was not an innocent mistake. They probably hired some IT or design person who didn’t adhere to their ‘philosophy’ but wanted the money, and that person took the opportunity to fuck with Trump in a way that is subtle and yet obvious. And to that person I say, Well done!! 

Not a hot take. Where would he be had the Western market had better access to Hong Kong cinema in the ‘90s?

Sally Menke was the editor on each of his movies up to Inglorious Basterds, after which she sadly passed away, so her absence is probably what you’re missing.

Because it’s going to make a shit ton of money! Just like the original Broadway show that was SO BAD and so fucking stupid and everyone went to see the goddamn thing. People are gonna hate-watch it, drunk off their ass (or on acid, as one of my friends has already floated as an idea.) The furry community will go in…

She is pure joy and awesomeness. I hope she’s having exactly as much fun as she looks like she is.
