“Like most sociopaths, Elizabeth has the ability to appear like a normal, charming person, when in reality, as the world now knows, she is a liar who committed fraud against investors, clients, pharmaceutical companies, patients, etc. She lied and falsified legal documents to get money to keep her company going, and…

While I agree the problem is capitalism, the reality is that this capital is being controlled by a specific group of people you included in your list but told us not to get angry at.

It’s already hard when you’re in control of everything, but try it when you have to be constrained by the decisions of several other departments who everyone have decided take priority over you (which can make some sense to an extent as it’s harder for them to switch gear than it is for the writer but it has to have…

I believe I’ve read that he credited his Muppet Show performance for his return to fame at the time. It’s certainly how many people of a certain age (i.e. mine) have known him their whole lives.

What an incredible life lived. R.I.P.

“Harry Belafonte: Patriot”

Well he sure as hell earned it. Also, while it may seem odd to single out a person’s Muppet Show appearance in their obituary, it really is a phenomenal episode. Belafonte was a natural in front of the camera, the musical numbers are great, and he meshed with the Muppet performers like few…

We’ll miss you, Harry, and your lifetime of accomplishments, not to mention one of the most instantly recognisable opening notes in all of music.

Joseph Bologne taught Thomas Alexandre Dumas (the famous black French General) how to sword fight. They both served in the same all black French regiment. Dumas’s son years later went on to write the famous book “The Three Musketeers” I really want fictional period film or miniseries with Bologne, Dumas and another…

Feticide by gun? Better ban abortion, Plan B, and contraception quick!

And it starts with the CEO and drips down to every manager, too. I was a retail store manager several years ago and when a nearby location’s manager quit, I was given the “opportunity” to manage two stores instead of one. Logically I thought this would mean a significant pay rise because I would be literally doing the…

I’d be willing to bet your former employer looked over the average bonus and determined it was cheaper to give raises.

Honestly this is HBOs fault. They keep giving this guy money to adapt what he already wrote, he’s never going to finish the other books

*this*. If my kid was having a birthday party, I'd be with them. Stuff Charlie not and the royal slapper!

the usa truly is the weirdest fucking place

Hi, just a friendly reminder that Bobby Kotick is a piece of shit and the world would be better off if literally the entire fleet of Greyhound busses ran over him (and the rest of Activision-Blizzard executive leadership, for that matter).

I think one of the main reasons why MEA failed and DAI succeeded (besides how MEA got meme’d to death due to the animation issues that DAI didn’t suffer from to nearly the same extent) is the character writing.

How about giving your kid a name instead of a practical joke.

“I knew this would be my last. It better be.”

I think I can speak for everyone else on the face of the Earth, Rupert, when I say yeah, agreed.

Today, Light has truly fallen

As someone who styled celebrities for decades, (who also came up from having very little) I absolutely know that feeling of being worn out in the service of others. Even when it is well paid and well funded (which is not all the time) it is exhausting to schlep other peoples stuff all over the town, the country, the…
