What if the coal miner and the single mom don’t want to subsidize a projected $100 million in travel costs for the President to play golf at Mar-A-Lago?

What if the coal miner and single mom want their kids to have access to summer programs so they don’t have to pay out of pocket for them? So they don’t have to take time off work to watch their kids when they are not in school.

“When you start looking at places that we reduce spending, one of the questions we asked was can we really continue to ask a coal miner in West Virginia or a single mom in Detroit to pay for these programs? The answer was no. We can ask them to pay for defense, and we will, but we can’t ask them to continue to pay for…

Why the fuck does Pence always look like he’s about to introduce legislation to outlaw the X-Men?

Pour one out for Sesame Street. I don’t even know how it got to this. God, this is such bullshit.

The use of black bodies to advance Western medicine is often overlooked. I always thought it was odd of history teachers of mine to mention how Western medicine developed ‘ethics’ after the Holocaust but I guess that part didn’t apply to black bodies in America.

My sister had a meeting last year with a guy who runs a huge music festival. He asked if he could hear her play, and she showed him some YouTube videos. His mind was blown. He was unaware of YouTube. In 2016. My point being that there are a lot of old white male decision makers in the entertainment industry who…

When I retire, i want to be be able to live off a pension of ill-fitting clothing.

What does this meeeeeeean???

That show is a fucking plague.

Taking the time to call out Aziz Ansari’s show Master of None (season 2 premieres in May!). He plays a struggling actor and one episode was entirely devoted to how many Indian roles are white-washed or must involve a heavy accent.

So this really is how Hollywood sees him.

“... geek with a pension for ill-fitting...”

If you live in a homogenous country like Japan and need a cyborg body the smart choice is to go with a Japanese body/look not a foreginer look which makes no sense whatsoever.

Dubbing is a fundamentally differnt process than making a live-action adaption of an anime show/movie, with dubbing the original show with the original voice actors is intact and you can easily go watch it with subs any time (and sometimes both are included on the same disk and can be swapped with a click), dubbing is…

Anime dubs? How is that even comparable?

“95% of anime characters don’t look like japanese people,” gonna stop you right there buddy. Just because they don’t “look” doesn’t mean they “aren’t.”

Arguably, the Major is a cyborg, but the entirety of the story takes place in Japan, so why wouldn’t her everyday shell look like a Japanese individual? Most anime are…
