They said the word “shit” in a Star Wars series. I am very conflicted about this.

and The Intimidation Game

It does if it’s an established author using a new pseudonym.

It’s extremely hard to get your first book published, let alone get it optioned as a movie. Having all that happen with an early draft manuscript is even less likely, and nearly impossible if you don’t already have connections that give you access - it would be roughly on the same level as finding a winning lottery…

J. K. Elle?

That was my first thought. Not that it's soderberg's wife, but it's someone writing under a pen name. I would be shocked if some unknown nobody got a 200 million dollar movie deal based on a manuscript.

I bet J.K. Rowling wrote it under this pseudonym.

Them letting Trump host reminded me of the old Eddie Murphy bit about white people getting drunk and voting for Jesse Jackson as a joke, then waking up saying “he fucking WON?!!”

After Sandy Hook, there was a movement to honor the dead by doing “27 random acts of kindness” (one for each victim) and I started doing little things, like letting people in front of me in line at the grocery check out, etc. I had under estimated the good it would do me. In a world of hate, it feels like a tiny act…

I barely get a thank you for the holding the door for people behind me. 

The smallest acts can brighten someone’s day, even if just momentarily.

I leave the quarter in the shopping cart lock at Aldi. I also leave extra bags for them. Makes the next person smile and I smile seeing it.

Yeah I’d disagree. It’s the second game that’s dogged with ludonarrative dissonance, not the first. It’s trying to tell a story about the cycle of violence (which devolves rather rapidly into a brain-dead revenge plot) and the consequences of killing others. But the only people killed that matter are those that die in…

Why is this terf the top comment

GENIUS!!!

I don’t know if you’re from the UK, but if you are, you’re too young to remember Section 28. You’re too young to remember the late-80s gay panic the Conservatives fermented in this country where they effectively tried to recriminalise being LGBT. You’re too young to understand the culture of fear, intimidation and…

ACTING!!!!!

Uncle Tom. You can’t be both feminist and Republican, they are mutually exclusive. Her definition of women’s rights is just like “religious freedom” in that they want to remove the rights of others instead of giving themselves more rights. She said nothing when the Supreme Court ended Roe v Wade protections, so it…

i said it before and i’ll say it again: everything she says about trans folks used to be said about gays and lesbians. particularly butch lesbians.

Thank you. I’m almost 70 and I haven’t menstruated for years. I also had to have a bilateral mastectomy, That means I have different medical needs than someone who has periods and from people that have never had breast cancer, not matter what their gender. It doesn’t matter how I identify, my body does what my body…

No one should be getting death threats end of story. I would say go read her blog post that she posted after the tweets. It was much, much worse when it came to her attempts to explain what’s “wrong” with trans people and might as well have been written by Ron DeSantis given her take was pretty much the same. She said…
