I genuinely don’t understand both the “forcibly kissed” and “groped” parts of the Franken story. The photo is goddamn stupid, but doesn’t show contact so isn’t groping - fucking insulting and demeaning, yes, but not sexual assault.

I delayed watching season 3 of Catastrophe for months because I didn’t want to deal with it. There’s a part of me that still hasn’t quite accepted it, and I just imagine her and Debbie running around Debbie’s house and decorating for Christmas in May.
I heard a terrible rumor that the real porg they had on-set was found dead in its trailer from a drug overdose. They had to finish the film with a cgi mask overlayed on a Guinea pig with similar facial features.
I want one scene....just ONE scene...of Ewoks hunting and eating Porgs.....
Apart from Disney needing to sell cute toys and Rey needing a cute animal sidekick in order to qualify as a Disney princess (you’re welcome!), I really can’t see there being any point to having these Pirgs as such central characters...
While on Themyscira, Helen — who is the daughter of Zeus & Leda — has some Wonder Woman-y powers awakened. Centuries later she returns to the wider world, following her “big sister.” One of the first persons she sees refers to her by the Italian equivalent of “ma’am,” she likes the sound of it, so she starts using…

Honestly, this is probably the smartest thing they could do. Their movies have been stinkers.
Amazon, there are 41 Discworld books. You could be adapting them until the heat death of the universe.
“Superman is on Supergirl! Arrow mentioned Batman! Look here’s where Wonder Woman lives! The Flash has his own show!”
What will happen, if things go well, is that they will consult with someone like my friend Carol Buckley who heads Elephant Aid International and Elephant Rescue North America, her new sanctuary in Georgia. Carol founded The Elephant Sanctuary in Hohenwald Tn over thirty years ago. She or someone equally skilled would…
Idris Elba, Andy Biersack, and Gackt are my pick. Lewis Tan! Very cute. I just discovered him on your list.
Not to mince words: Wayne LaPierre is the Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi of the American right-wing, running an organized group trading in religious and political rhetoric to create terror and death in order to move a political agenda. He is this country’s most dangerous terrorist leader, and he holds almost unprecedented sway…
I don’t have anything deep or even snarky to add to the conversation. I am just sad and tired to my bones.
