Yeah, history rhymes.

My theory is John wanted out, and he could easily use his devotion to Ono as an excuse. And it worked. He was painted as a devoted man who chose love over the “best band in the world ever.” She was treated as the poison who denied the public further artistic genius from that band. And why would he care if she were…

They worked with the guy who wrote “Rebel Rebel” and were an iconic part of the glam rock era but now he’s saying “we’d be forced to have a trans person today”? Huh? Androgyny is built in to rock and roll. Come on.

I mean, yes to all that. I think that’s accurate. But I think they’re less shitty about it now than 20 years ago, and they definitely put more work into their writing. Would be nice to get an updated comment from them? But like, they don’t have to abandon shock humor necessarily - “The Cissy” was great and probably…

Well, yes, but making jokes about trans people is lazy and shitty. The idea that comedians now “live in fear” when they’re still getting nominated for Grammies despite being “cancelled” makes it fall flat for me. Most here probably disagree.

Honestly this is a thing that we all expected though, especially since there’s a lack of vaccination abroad (I think mostly due to lack of access) as well as dumbfuck right wingers in the US trusting the word of a guy from 8-kun over anyone from the CDC. Mutations are one of the most challenging aspects of virology to…

The “Max” and “Plus” store names were hilarious. I definitely snorted at the “TJ Maxx Max” sign harder than I should have. Same with “because it’s the future!” - it’s a dumb joke but dammit it works here. It’s those little touches that make SP funny. Also their detailing on the tech like self-driving cars is…

Yup I love that one. Law & Order masterclass led by Amy Poehler’s character.

Those were always small points interspersed into the greater plot of the show. We didn’t go to Ross’s house and see her break down into tears over it on the phone with her mom, for example.

They wanna bring back this show properly? Putting aside issues with copaganda, etc... put the format back to what it was up until like 2010 or so. Give us “discover a dead body out of no where” from some rando at the cold open, first part of the show is the detective part, second part is the lawyer part. A “just the…

so basically this happened I guess

You might not be aware, but Jill Soloway transitioned and is now Joey - I think they use they/them pronouns. It’s ok if you didn’t know that. I didn’t know until someone pointed it out to me.

So... his dad wrote the episode with the panda rape joke? ‘K

Sounds like a great movie. Maybe write it anyway. Or if you’re not a script writer, get someone else to write it and consult. Just for fun. You never know where something ends up

I felt like Rey did that for a lot of star wars fans, in a way. Because I can’t remember A New Hope beat for beat but watching TFA, I felt like I was on another adventure. But this time, it was a young woman on screen, uninterested in romantic entanglements, lonely, and a little lost. That’s powerful stuff. I would’ve…

I mean this is a reasonable critique that I see coming from almost none of the people who harbor disdain for it. I think I agree re: Bill Murray’s cameo; it was there to be a cameo and nothing more. Which is fine. Like I said, it wasn’t trying to be the pinnacle of storytelling.

2016 was fun. It was a fun romp with hilarious ladies that are fun to watch on a glowing rectangle. It was cool to see women be bad-ass without also looking like a “fighting fuck-toy.” It was hilarious to see McKinnon let her queer-lady-charisma shine to the fullest.
