I’d rather have a bearded black lady dwarf than a non-bearded white one, if that’s what you’re getting at.

When I went to see The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, the Twilight craze was still going on, and just about every preview was part of that wave of romance-fantasy. One such preview was for the Vampire Academy movie, which the audience audibly groaned their way through. When it ended, I yelled out a “Boooo!”, and there…

Whoa. I know exactly who that character is, but never knew it was Adam Scott!

The reviewer doesn't specify whether she's read the book: her words imply that she has, but her lack of comprehension suggests she hasn't. 

“Only squares and toxics like that slavish and racist adaptation anymore, grandma! Geez!”

I actually have read and enjoyed the novel, which it sounds like this reviewer hasn’t, as there’s nothing “subversive” about it. And Slate’s Dana Stevens, whose feminist bona fide are impeccable, says that this is an awful movie even apart from its drastic adaptational liberties. If you read just one review of this…

Well, not every book and story throughout history was crafted with an aim to appeal to you personally.

That topmost Quora reply cites no sources. My recollection of looking this up, as well as personal experience, tells me the average height of my fellow American white dudes is about five nine.

No offense to Crosby, but the record shows that she bailed on TNG pretty quickly.

Apologies 

What, a lowercase “cap,” to differentiate him from the Rogers Cap? I do not subscribe to your memo.

But she is quoted as calling out her specific employer:

“The CW and WB, that was their way of handling it. We know better now. It’s not okay to treat your talent that way, to let them go through abuse and harassment. But for me in 2014, there were no support systems.”

Yeah, I wish this piece gave any indication of what kind of “protection” Patton wanted. Did she want a therapist, possibly on-set, as part of her compensation package? Did she want anti-racist PSAs, or in-universe content to that effect? Or is this all about social media, and the CW being too cheap to hire some…

I assumed the deal was doomed when I heard John Dickerson point out that there’s a lot of Tesla factories in China; ergo, were Musk were to own Twitter, the CCP would have enormous leverage over him to censor anti-CCP tweets, which would go 100% against his stated ethos of “speech with limitations (or responsibility.”

After Waititi’s last interview, I was wondering how long it’s been since the announcement of a new Star Wars film in the franchise. According to Wiki, “In February 2013, Disney CEO Bob Iger confirmed the development of two Star Wars standalone films, one written by Lawrence Kasdan. Shortly thereafter, it was…

I’m starting to get the barest wisps of a hint of an impression that Lucasfilm doesn’t have any maclunking idea what its overall creative direction for this franchise is, beyond “scribbling something or other into the RotJ-TFA gap, we guess.”

Does that picture predate school desegregation? If not, it can't be by much.

I’m all for more MCU queerness, but anyone else remember when this character helped enslave people, possibly for centuries? Where's the #JusticeFor them? :P

Hack writing like this is just the kind of thing that drives everyday middle-class people away from liberalism, BTW. People see media elites promoting stuff like celebrity nepotism and calling it progressive feminism, so they conclude progressivism itself is an elitist scam.
