Donald Trump isn’t a fan of Neil Young. Donald Trump isn’t actually a fan of anyone or anything. Donald Trump just claims to be a fan of stuff that he thinks will make people like him more. I truly don’t think he has the attention span to sit through, let alone listen to, a 4-minute rock song.  

Biden sucks and needs to step aside. I know it won’t happen.

It is equal parts fascinating and horrifying to see the British press bend over backwards to turn their inbred prince’s child molesting into a story about how terrible a black woman is for protecting her children.

You are completely correct, and yet that fact is a deeper condemnation of many things that are true today that aren’t related to Disney - once we’re at the point of saying ‘Disney should have paid for that child’s treatment’ we as a civilization have already failed.

BBC reports that Nair had tried to crowdfund Waligwa’s medical treatment in India, after Ugandan doctors said they lacked the equipment necessary to eradicate her brain tumor.

Aww, man. This is terrible. Queen of Katwe is such a great little film (thanks, Mira Nair), and Waligwa played a great friend to the film’s protagonist Phiona.

Yes; we may have a contested convention. This would come as no surprise. I wouldn’t place too much truck in FiveThirtyEight, though, after they so spectacularly failed to correctly analyse the tide in the 2016 elections.

As the election gets closer, my mood grows darker.

I 100% believe these girls who were born as boys identify as female and are trans.

Yes and much better articulated than anything I could say!

Same. I love France with a passion rare and true, but goddamn does she make me profoundly angry at times! The reason the French women lag so far behind the rest of the Western world is a long and depressing slog through the Great Revolution and its misogynist aftermath(s). I mean, women didn’t get the right to vote…

I was going to point out it was a serious problem (statutory rape/low age of consent laws) all over in the 70s/80s, including the US and the UK (famous people like Don Johnson, Jimmy Page, David Bowie, that Rolling Stone guy are all guilty of statutory rape)...but you aren’t entirely wrong that France was/is on a…

Bill Wyman of the Rolling Stones was 47 when he started dating Mandy Smith, who was 13 at the time. They started having sex when she was 14 and married when she was 18. (And then her mother married his son) 

This guy’s a piece of shit, but it’s no reason for everyone to start collectively shitting on French culture like it’s their specific problem - as it’s happening in the comments. What about all the English and American rockstars fucking and raping underage girls in the 70s? What about what Nicholson, Spacey, Singer…

he’s not even that great a writer, so they were all going out of their way to publish and shield and reward him just because.

“At the time, people talked of inciting a minor to debauchery, or indecent assault...But nobody ever spoke of crime,”

in the era of the internet (and streaming) it seems kind of pointless. i can look up who won easily, watch a speech if it was really good on youtube and thanks to streaming, its not like its the oscars or re-runs of law and order.

Thank you. As an almost 40 year old Black woman, I feel gaslit constantly by this idea that advocating for my own respect is somehow disrespectful to Black men. This piece is great.

I don’t want to say that anyone deserves aggressive lung cancer, but if it had to be anybody then I’m glad it’s Rush Limbaugh. I can’t wait for him to enter the bad place and experience butthole spiders and chainsaw bears.

It says something about Hollywood sexism that on a set with all of those narcissistic creeps they would single out Faye Dunaway for supposedly being a diva
