I think they’re redoing it because of the allegations that Richards purposefully skewed the schedule and selections so that he would win the job (which makes sense given how many B-team hosts snuck in for a guest spot). I’d be chill with justLevar Burton but I also get it.

My personal hypothesis is that one component is permanently masked villains make building a compelling movie a lot harder and Marvel already knows they have a villain problem. Obviously there are exceptions, just my theory. The best recent Marvel villains have a lot of charisma (Loki, Hela, Killmonger) and that’s…

The ignorance here. There’s large swathes of major cities that don’t have easy access to those stores. And when you reply, “they could catch a bus” not everyone has the time or the money to travel far for shopping. It’s not necessarily a scam as much as it’s Terry Pratchett’s boots theory and economics in action, but…

The only way I can see it making sense is if they need to say stuff is banned for some legal reason but they're not actually going to enforce?

In a quick pass, the Mann Act does not seem super constitutional to me if it applies to people transporting themselves??? And I question the morals of anyone who claims they're against people being exploited and then pressures the platforms where people can relatively safely run their own sex-related businesses to…

The girls are sophomores in college, so not underaged unless they’re prodigies. For me, yes, technically the hotel broke a contract with Shane by not giving him the room he paid for. What makes him an asshole is not that he wants some compensation for that, but that he himself ruins his own vacation and his wife’s…

There have been bi contestants in straight relationships before, do you think a 100% straight contestant would be that different?

The only unthreatening thing about him is that he’s not bright enough to think of hiring a lawyer to resolve his origin story contract dispute instead of becoming a supervillain, which in another light is the most threatening thing about him. Maybe ScarJo should take a page from his book and start suiting up to steal…

Lady MAGA will have opinions, I’m sure https://twitter.com/ladymagausa

I’m fine with it I just hope she doesn’t talk the whole time about how meaningful it is to be a cis-woman doing drag. The cis-woman team on the first season of Legendary did that and it just gets boring and cringey. Even though some people might not like cis-women doing drag or ballroom, it’s not like you’re Jackie…

This is worth it just for Korath and Thanos, I loved their defanged versions, especially Thanos blithely defending his plan as not genocide because it’s random. The only thing that rang false to me is that T’Challa must have been doing pretty amazing things pretty young to change things as much as he did. Drax’s…

It’s almost like two people born in the second half of the 1970s would be kids at the same time in the 1980s (assuming the characters are about the same age as the actors). And when you’re coming from galaxies away, ending up in Wakanda instead of America is basically like getting the street number wrong.

He may not have gotten a Harrier jet, but he won immortality in the classrooms of 1L Contracts forever

“Like baseball used to be” as in it captures the rosy memory of watching baseball, probably with an emotionally loaded memory of your dad, while skipping the tedium that is a real-time experience of watching baseball. 

How hilarious would it be if Ted Lasso takes place in the Doctor Who universe and no Londoners even remark on it because it's London at Christmas, aliens gonna alien

I started watching NuWho young enough that even though I’m an atheist I flipping love most of the Christmas episodes (until they started getting really plotty). For me they’re up there with Hogfather as largely secular celebrations of pulling yourself out of the dark periods that fall into every life through…

Responding to infidelity with lethal force is itself toxic masculinity? 

“Because a strong man, who has known power all his life, will lose respect for that power. But a weak man knows the value of strength, and knows compassion." I think Peggy still qualifies because even though she's a strong woman, she hasn't known power all her life. Even disregarding physicality, she's been shut out…

Cardi B pulls an almost Marilyn Monroe act where she acts in a way that plays on stereotypes of dumb women (probably increased by racist impressions of people with certain accents being dumb) but is not actually dumb. Her AP Gov teacher was in the news standing up for her a few years ago when people called her dumb.…

The article says contactless lift system, AKA, someone rebranded the dumbwaiter for the 21st century
