You don’t have to speculate about how this plan won’t stop a theoretical organized crime group shipping parts to China - the data from Hawaii shows that’s obviously not a large percentage of thefts.

Why are we just taking this guy’s word for it that there are only 30 great sitcom writers? I’d suggest (also without evidence) that there have ALWAYS been way more great TV writers than that - they just had no opportunity when there were only three networks.

Or pick a service with several shows you’d like to watch and subscribe for a month and then cancel. You’re missing out on some truly excellent shows if you never check out any streaming exclusive, and for the price of a movie ticket it’s a no-brainer in terms of value.

I don’t understand this need people feel to speculate about who might be scabbing. Just listen to the union! It’s their strike, and they will absolutely tell you when someone is crossing the picket line.

It’s out Dec 8 in the US. Reviews from the festival circuit are very, very positive.

He’s extremely open about the fact that he was a pain to work for from the start of Community. It seems like he’s gotten better over the years as he’s learned to delegate more.

I didn’t really think he was writing, or had ever done much writing for it, but I listened to the commentary on the DVDs which most people probably didn’t do.

Come on, be the best pedant you can be and spell “canon” correctly. ;)

“they refuse people” Refuse them for what? That phrase needs a modifier - it’s meaningless by itself. “refuse people entry”? “refuse people the ability to use the gas station”? Maybe the author meant “they refuse to relent” but just “refuse people” doesn’t make sense alone.

Uh oh... big yikes!

It’s a little more specific, but still a bit of a stretch. It’s that Pratt has a child with health challenges with Anna Faris, and specifically complimented his second wife saying “She’s given me an amazing life, a gorgeous healthy daughter” and people thought he was dragging Faris and his firstborn by comparison. You…

You’re a bad person, and literally everyone around you knows it.

What a truly embarassing take. Grow up.

I honestly need someone to explain to me why shareholders aren’t holding these companies accountable. Don’t the companies have a fiduciary responsibility to settle the strikes since that’s cheaper than letting them go on?

No, it’s specifically a rejoinder to “nobody liked him then or now” - an easily falsifiable statement.

It must be nice to just make up definitions and decide on your own that if someone didn’t INTEND harm, then nothing they’ve done is at all racist. That’s a really long walk to avoid any accountability for promoting hurtful stereotypes.

Ah, you’re going with the time-tested “pretending they don’t exist.” I guess that’s one way to ineptly defend an evidence-free assertion.

How is “not requiring or recommending a text” the same as “deciding on their behalf that they shouldn’t read it”? Huck Finn is one of the most well-known books in American history. Nobody is being deprived of the choice to read it by leaving it off college reading lists. They can read whatever they choose.

“I sincerely do not believe black students will be traumatized by reading the word.”

Not necessarily, could just be a poorly ordered sentence. I took it to mean “She understood right away that was needed.” In this context, “that” means “having no shame.”
