I’m going to focus on one part of the story: the current mindset that it’s not rude at all to just whip out a smartphone whenever you feel like it.

Odd, if my black ass told the police that I thought the President was talking to me directly through the TV screen, I’d be thrown in jail for life (I don’t even get a nice padded cell, either). This guy gets the “Oh, he’s just has an old head injury, poor boy” defense. The fuck is this nonsense?
You can find a sizable mass of Internet commenters on any side of any issue. The Internet is not real life. A lot of real life people paid a lot of real life money to see Rey on the big screen. That’s much more of a thing than some Twitter temper tantrums, and to understand that is to have some perspective.
40 years after Alien and 35 after Terminator casting a woman lead is a breakthrough because of “Internet commenters?” Just make a good movie, Tim and Mackenzie, and the rest will take care of itself.
I still can’t understand how anybody can watch the way Trump behaves and think “yep, that’s good and normal.” If the guy who grooms my dogs behaved like this, spoke like this, tweeted like this... I’d find a new guy to groom my fucking dogs. And I’m not even talking about the abhorrent racism and xenophobia and…
the John Oliver show sketch about the WWE (I’ll always call it WWF, but I’m like a super-old 41) really served to remind me of how much of gigantic, ugly, disgusting, worthless, vile, terrible human being Vince McMahon really is (always was). As someone who peaked on wrestling in about 1990, when I was 12 or 13 yrs…
I appreciate pointing out the hypocrisy at play here, but this is a flavor of hot take I’m really fucking tired of. Can a tragedy just be a tragedy? Do we always have to justify our emotional responses to stuff like this by comparing it to other tragedies or excuse it by giving some explicit personal or familial…
Yeah, do you remember on Voyager how Tuvok would whisper-lecture Kim (or was it Paris?) on those one-to-one comm spankings on the bridge?
Everyone knows that Arya died on the bridge after being stabbed repeatedly and then falling into infected waters of the Ankh-Morpork river.
I agree. Like, Joe the actual person seems like a nice guy and I’m glad he isn’t taking a turn for the worse. But his wrestling is still incredibly boring 90% of the time. He’s taken Cena’s six moves of doom and somehow cut them in half, spams his punch/running hug way too often, and has the laziest Samoan Drop I’ve…
So Tilly is officially my Wesley Crusher because I keep finding myself so often saying “SHUT UP, TILLY!,” that we must make it so.
Yeah the only way to tell a story about this band that does not depict them treating women horribly is to not tell a story.
They have a real problem with Toxic Moclaninity.
Getting inspiration from the internet is always a bad idea. As if Captain Marvel couldn’t get any worse.
Cassius has been in every episode this season.
Pretty sure you belong in column A.
No, it really isn’t complicated or worthwhile. It’s a colossal waste of time. It’s not about sexual assault, and it never was. Anyone who tells you they believe it was is lying for attention, or is very easily manipulated (and also likely illiterate). Pretending that this is some sort of somber discussion about a…
Drunk people hit on other people every day, in every bar, at every party. If she said no and he got physical or became an asshole, that’s something. If he was groping her, that’s something. But hitting on her when she wasn’t interested? That’s nothing. That’s a guy misreading the room. (And women can do it too. I…
One time I got so frustrated playing Ninja Gaiden I burned a cross on my neighbors lawn.
You would think so but this man is a multi-millionaire who made his money filming himself yelling into that Internet void. If he can’t understand that his words on the Internet have meaning then what makes you think a basement dwelling troll will?
