Crenshaw needs to look at this situation with more depth. His vision is clouded by his wallet and the political blinders he wears. His insistence that we rely on the ongoing extraction of fossil fuels is just a patch on the problem of global climate change, a looming problem he just can’t seem to focus on. We need…

Because that show is notorious for exploiting it’s contestants? But yeah, let’s blame a 16 year old, not her grifter parents and and giant TV show.

I did ponder your comments. And I will say this. The US deployed forces to hunt Bin Laden and execute him. It was considered a just act and Americans generally seemed pretty satisfied with the outcome. You think Trump is any better. He is not. In some ways he is even worse because he has tried to foment the collapse…

Couldn’t we gift this family a cruise on one of the many unused cruise ships we have sitting around, and then have the Navy use it for torpedo practice? For the good of the Country. Just a suggestion...

Trying to remain somewhat cheerfully optimistic here, I think Trump is aging out - he needs a reason to get up in the morning and right now he doesn’t have one. I suppose he could guest on Fox but other than that.... no barrage of tweets, Facebook baloney etc is currently available to him. No megaphone, no rallies.…

There is a world of difference between comparing *public figures getting pushback on their stated views* to putting people in concentration camps, and comparing *putting people in concentration camps* to putting people in concentration camps.

Of course there’s bad lore and too much lore. That’s why Disney axed the ridiculous expanded universe stuff when they bought Star Wars. Marvel & DC comics are impossible to navigate for a casual fan because of all of the lore. You made a blanket statement though and one that just comes across as painting all fans as…

This is a dumb take. People concerned with lore and world building also care about a good story. If you want to trade in hateful stereotypes, “fans” like you care more about gleefully pissing off a fandom than seeing a story told well.

Every single Star Wars name sounds objectively dumb. We’re just used to them. Get over it.  In 6 months, Grogu will sounds perfectly normal to you.

Oh my god I am shaking my head on this one. I think David Hogg pretty much sums it up here:

This is almost certainly incorrect. The glue will have gone below the surface of the hair and bonded to her scalp.

She was groomed, he was almost twenty years older and much more famous. From what she has said, it sounds like it was a deeply abusive and controlling relationship. I’m pretty shocked by these comments placing blame on a teenage abuse victim.

Sick burn. You also seem like a very cool person. Thank you for sharing with us how cool, important, and unique you are. 

Except nothing about it was lighthearted. Get fucked. 

It’s nice of you to take someone’s comment about how they’ve chosen to deal with sadness and then somehow insult them because of their choice of music. Good work.

I get that you may have a personal preference to avoid BDSM dynamics in a relationship but in the right relationship and setting it can be very loving and not at all something to mistrust. Not every guy into BDSM is a psychopath. Just like every women who is on the receiving end isn’t naive and being manipulated.…

I think part of what you need to remember is that, as a commenter on io9 who reads the recap of an episode that you’ve already watched the day it came out, you aren’t necessarily the typical viewer of this show. YOU may have already figured out all of the things revealed on this episode, but Average Joe Disney+ Viewer…

They are a parody religion, the aim of which is to advocate for the separation of state and religion, point out the hypocrisy of organized religion, and self-love/self-interest.

No. Fair tipping is an essential part of the deal. If you can’t afford that then you actually cannot afford your fave Mexican joint. It’s absolutely not “do what you can do.”

You couldn’t really tell because the tubes weren’t see-through. You can see them at the top of this photo.
