i’m frankly concerned they may have injured themselves with that reach.

this’d be like, killer app no. 1 for my kids.

some of my favorite movies are white movies. the whites have a long history of making great movies.

when they write a story they have a certain vision for the characters, and that vision is close to universally white. also, diversity is important. since it’s pretty clear that they’re not the ones to provide that diversity, then in a round about way they’re saying it’s important that other film makers besides them…

mountains. snow-capped.

that’s silly and nobody thinks that. it needs to be pink so that women are confident taking it through the check stand that their cashier won’t think they bought men’s tampons. it’s why men’s tampons are blue. i had a friend in jr. high that had to use women’s tampons once. he got such a razzing about it in the locker…

what would prevent a reinstatement of the draft if need should arise for it?

“Student safety is a top priority and we followed procedures we have in place that allow us to effectively investigate...”

do you think i was trying to be combative?

yeah, at the same time there’s no need to get bent out of shape about someone pointing out that all the characters are white. it’s a fact that they are and not really something that needs defending. it’s good, i think, for it to be pointed out regularly so that people are cognizant of the possibilities they’re…

technically, no people come from northern europe, or anywhere in europe.

yeah, he’s got a mad eye moody vibe going on.

i assume touring will be when they make it back.

“my bike” is such a great line.

then it’s clear what’s really needed here: less revealing hospital gowns.
