Then something went wrong for Fay Wray and King Kong...

Wonderfully put. I’ve been working with a therapist on social anxiety for over a year, and i’ve made a ton of progress, but women are still 100 percent off the table for me because the rules keep changing. Being forward when asking a woman out of the blue is considered very rude, but being friends first and deciding…
Hi, I am a man and I appreciate your comment. Thank you for acknowledging that it can be a minefield for men.
Yep. Men are getting called out for being creepy more and more lately. Rightfully so. But this puts many men in the position of always feeling paranoid of coming across as creepy. It has become increasingly passe for a man to just approach a woman out of the blue and asking for a date.
I don’t get the It Follows love. I thought it was really boring. I loved The Babadook though and saw creepy shadows for a week afterwards.
Snap Judgement just started a spin-off podcast called Spooked!By Snap Judgement. It’s an extension of their famous yearly Halloween podcast of scary stories. V. Good!
That’s terrifying but I have heard a couple accounts of people being baited into hellish situations this way. So scary.
Lore is becoming a tv series on Amazon Prime!
The Penpal series of episodes from The No Sleep Podcast freaked me right the hell out. Good stuff.

I’m also in awe of Terry speaking out, I really hope this encourages more to come forward, if this ex football player macho man can come forward, so can you, there seems to be this narrative that being assaulted means you’re weak.
How utterly invincible do you think you have to be to grope Terry Crews in public and in front of his wife without any repercussions? What kind of sick, deranged power move is that?
Crude jokes = sexual assault to you?
Your mileage may vary.
All of those things are things he said during his act.
I guess I feel like women should be the same as men in that they would want to see a good sci-fi movie, regardless of how many Gal Gadots are starring in it. I mean, if a smart, well-crafted piece of science fiction can’t make a buck at the box office, we’re all just going to end up with more and more Geostorms at…
You don’t think it was a projection into the future of the outcome of the pornification of our society? Because that’s how I took it, and it seems a depressingly accurate prediction to me.
It becomes increasingly difficult to enjoy the show without thinking about its loudest, most obnoxious fans. For me, it’s not that I like it less. It gets harder to like.
I feel like the section of the report quoted here isn’t necessarily dismissing the danger posed by white supremacists or saying the identified groups concerns are “irrational” (like the author says). They seem to be saying that the reality of police violence against communities of color can and may lead to retaliatory…
