The funny thing is that I’m not some huge fan of Kemper’s. I didn’t watch The Office. I thought that she was good in Bridesmaids. I liked Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt and thought that she was good in it, too, but it’s not like she’s one of my favorite actors.

I’m going to dissect this bullshit one bit at a time:

They’re Brits - it would be a kebab from a street van ordered with an inadvisable amount of chilli sauce.

romeo and juliet but sapphic and vampires? yes and please hurry thank you.

That you think the follow-up question to “I like Jay Z” being “Which Jay Z song do you like?” is a “gotcha” question implies a belief that follow-up question are inherently gotcha, meaning almost all journalism that goes beyond pre-prepared responses is offensive.

And since that’s the case, go fuck yourself.

See, now…

Whedon’s a piece of shit...but he’s also very much a “favorites” guy, and Dushku was definitely one of them.

So my question is: was Cybil Shepard actually not "easy to work with," or is that code for "woman who didn't put up with sexist horseshit so got labelled with the dreaded 'difficult'" tag?

I just glanced at the headline and read it as “Jerry Lewis” and immediately my head exploded.

I read this whole article thinking, “Has this writer ever seen Grease?”

Or a snide neckbeard erasing Marti Noxon’s and Jane Espenson’s and SMG’s and Alyson Hannigan’s and Emma Caulfield’s and Charisma Carpenter’s work, by pretending that Buffy wasn’t fucking phenomenal?

That is absolutely NOT the message. Thanks for coming out, though.

This happened during a Zoom call— “Harris-Lawrence, who is Black, asked a second person on the call, a writer who is also Black, if they had received the email... [she] said she would forward the email to the other writer. “Look at that,” Greg Spottiswood said, “a monkey passing the ball to another monkey.”

Ah, the good ol’ “white men just can’t do no right in this PC SJW MeToo cancel-culture-run-amuck world” that’s never not bullshit.

The message is don’t be a toxic asshole. Especially one bad enough to cause five writers to quit en masse in protest of your profound asshattery.

Why do you feel it is necessary to state this?

The anthology that I use to teach Composition includes bell hooks’s essay “Straightening Our Hair”, which I always assign, along with a clip from the Chris Rock-narrated documentary Good Hair. This episode will be a welcome addition when those assignments come around again.

You know, I get it, you’re a capitalist with a goal set of making profits and you probably aren’t going to see in such as small sample size the cost of keeping these two on in practical terms as they’re unlikely to get sick until late 2021 or after due to the loosening of restrictions finally sending them into a COVID…

My issue is this:

I despise big pharma corporations and I get my second dose next week because I'm capable of walking and chewing gum at the same time.
