Just sayin’ an oral history of a C-plot in a current HBO show really reeks of sponsored content. 

Man, HBO’s really pushin’ Mare of Easttown, ain’t they?

Fucking Kinja.

This is the first time I’ve seen anything about a show about Young Rock but that sounds incredibly incredibly stupid (but just stupid enough to work maybe?)

Since the charity shops have reopened in the last couple of weeks I’ve been lucky enough to pick up a sod load of graphic novels for about £2 a shot, including a fair amount of Chew, Hellblazer and Y The Last Man. Unfortunately I also bought Garth Ennis’s Pride & Joy which is packed full of toxic masculinity and a…

Band of Brothers was particularly glaring in this regard. All of the enlisted soldiers seem to speak in either a southern or Brooklyn accent, no matter where the character was actually from... so much so that the character of Private Blythe, from Philadelphia, inexplicably speaks with a southern accent.

I grew up surrounded by that accent, although I never spoke it. Even hearing it daily until I was 19, I could never imitate it properly to people who were unfamiliar with the “Philly” accent. It really is extremely difficult to fake if you didn't grow up speaking it.

I see your point but this is the internet journalism so the Tweets are really important.

Just another he said/she said, she said, she said, she said, she said, she said, she said, she said, she said, she said, she said, she said, she said, she said, she said, she said, she said, she said, she said, she said situation.

“What’s ur favourite thing about the sex you’re attracted too? (My PR answer would B everything about a woman) But #CantLie VaJayJay all day“

I’m not sure that changes the underlying point, though. There’s still no reason for us to play along with them.

My god, you fucking people.

You realize that the entire point of white supremacists trying to co-opt that gesture was to make fun of idiots who will get offended at literally anything, right?

1). The dude seems to have unequivocally denied it. Unless there’s other evidence beyond “he also said an ignorant thing about Roma people” I don’t know how you can justify this level of outrage.

The hand gesture you use to indicate the number 3 can reveal that you’re NOT a Nazi. Inglorious Basterds.

About the only example to the contrary I can think of here is Dear Zachary. Otherwise, yeah.

I guess it depends. Do you hate your ex- more than you loved being alive?

That would follow the traditional model of ghost story as moral allegory, in which the hauntings are stand-ins for bad deeds that went unpunished. As the perpetrators of these bad deeds, the victims of these hauntings would need to die so that the vengeful spirits could find rest.

It wants the vessel with the pestle but gets the flagon during Dragon Week.
