You can recognize that people have the right to do something while at the same time respecting them a little less for it. These things are not mutually exclusive. She’s not saying that it should be illegal to sell a Harry Potter book to a thirty-five-year-old. 

“My last Disney trip.” I can’t believe anyone would go more than once (if that).

Most stupid things don’t appear stupid to the people being stupid, my dude. I’m not forbidding anything, but as a human person I am allowed to have opinions about things, especially the kinds of things I am invited to attend.

they can’t. they’re naive self-absorbed children who believe anyone who mildly disagrees with them isn’t a potential ally and fellow human but a full-scale demon. they’re fascist tyrants masquerading as leftists but are anything but, and their willful ignorance and lack of empathy is terrifying.

TBF, sites like like this one have for years been leaning hard into the ideology that “finding the middle ground 100% makes you a Nazi”.  Which is why you don’t really see that kind of talk here very much, and you sure as hell don’t see it from these articles.

The louder people of the internet have spoken, life is a binary choice where you have to pick a side. Even finding some small portion of a person’s identity defensible, which some group despises, means you have something wrong with your mental state. 

Honestly, my gripes with this season had little to do with whether Rae “got True Detective right.” It’s an anthology series with a rocky past; take it in whatever direction you want.

I doubt they would have used the word “confession” or called it “bizarre” if the genders were reversed in the scenario.

Probably because you really want to have another person to feel victimized by.

Dumb people like you only have the ability to think in these terms. 

It’s AVClub; everything is bizarre to them if it doesn’t fit their very narrow wheelhouse.

“love interest to Jodie Foster’s Detective Liz Danvers in True Detective Night Country”

Nonsense. The problem with Origin is that it’s terrible. I saw it at release, and boy does it do a disservice to the very important work it’s adapted from. DuVernay gives us half-formed ideas and cloyingly sentimental scenes that try and fail to manipulate viewer emotions.

She is a smug overreacher who doesn’t understand her limits. 

I wonder if it had anything to do with her movie being fucking terrible?

Funny, they had a DVD of The Thing on their TV Cabinet, clearly visible.

I think there’s a misconception that people - including Taylor Swift - didn’t laugh because his jokes were offensive. People didn’t laugh because they weren’t funny.

It’s a very minor point but I thought mentioning the fact that Rodgers went to community college as a way to demonstrate that Rodgers isn’t smart was lame. Lots of people who go to community college are smart. He also noted that Rodgers went to Cal for one year and didn’t graduate. Kimmel also dropped out of college…

Yeah no, now we’re all supposed to engage with it and debate whether he is or isn’t. It’s rage bait, like every snarky thing written here is.
