I only know what *not* to do.

Oh boy. I love my wife dearly and she has many many fine qualities, but she can not get the point of a story to save her life.

There is no defense against this. Once you’re caught in it, you’ve just gotta let it roll over you.

Michael Burnham is still a Mary Sue who makes me sick to my fuckin’ stomach and Discovery still sucks monkey balls. The Picard thing looks intriguing and I’m willing to keep an open mind and give it a fair chance before I trash it unmercifully.

Fleabag, and anyone associated with it, should win everything, in every category, even the ones in which they’re not nominated. I mean, I know it’s ostensibly a comedy, and all, but if you can look at the back half of Season 2 and say that Phoebe Waller-Bridge, Sian Clifford, and Andrew Scott didn’t do some of the…

Agreed with all of this, with one exception: if the captain/pilot tells you to to move, you move.
If they tell you to do the truffleshuffle, you do it.
Sue them afterwards and win big, but while on a airplane, the pilot is a dictator god. Same with the captain of a ship.
Document everything, get witnesses & video, and…

James Baldwin used the word nigger too, is he “an arrogant donkey?”

You can be a good writer and be full of shit at the same time! I’ll never forgive black intellectuals, scholars and writers like Mosley who help popularize that dreadful word.

This is the weirdest weirdest boner post I’ve ever made.

Apparently in 2018, the West Village was 89% white. Perhaps Friends was fairly realistic.

I’m still using a SE which at this point is *very* dated. If they don’t announce a new one this year I’m going to bite the bullet and upgrade but it sucks having to move to a worse user experience just because every phone manufacturer has decided that everyone wants giant phones you can’t use one-handed.

Funny seeing people complaining about how dated the show is...at the time it came out, there were a lot of think pieces about how cutting-edge it was, showing a then-new sociological concept, the “urban tribe” composed of the then-coming-of-age-and-mysterious GENERATION X, and how these characters did then-new stuff…

how is the whiteness of the cast problematic? is the overwhelming blackness of the cast of Blackish also problematic? I would say the overwhelming lack of talent in the Friends cast and writing team was more problematic.

What is so hard about it is that harassment doesn’t have to have any basis in fact.

The thing about college girls is, while Professor McConaughey keeps getting older, they the girls stay within the same proximate age range.

“Assault on a female” is an official crime now? Like, with discrete punishment that differs from that which you’d see if you’d assaulted a man?

People were definitely aware of the odor. Council Bluffs is my hometown and, while I haven’t lived there in decades, I still have ties to the community. There’s been a lot of talk about the odor of that store — even my old bff talked about it. A lot of people said the odor caused them to not shop there. You kind of…

I’ll take “guy who knows things” shtick over your “performative outrage” shtick any day of the week, thanks.  

Counterpoint: NDT has taught me many things, and Jack Crosbie has not enriched my life in literally any conceivable way.

Said absolutely NOBODY ever.
