I mean, that’s pretty easy. I read his words.

Does that include me? - Tobey Maguire

I mean, I don’t need another Charlie’s Angels movie but it’s easy enough to not go see it. Every three weeks when Spiderman is rebooted—this time the origin story really speaks our collective anxiety in the mid-aughts following Pluto’s downgrade to dwarf planet—it clogs up about half the screenings at the local AMC.…

I’d also like to add, in honor of the great Deadspin coverage of Gladwell’s excuse-making for abuse enablers: #StickToSports

Imagine having the freedom to make a comfortable living writing and reporting upon literally anything you want and deciding what you want to write and report on is that society is too mean to people who were complicit in the serial sexual abuse of minors. Because that is literally Malcolm Gladwell’s situation.

Exactly. When I read the first story about this, I couldn’t get over a professionally successful adult being that personally hurt by a single work-based criticism by a 20-year-old student at a small college. The counter-criticism about the value of YA lit/genre fiction/women authors is fine, even if I really only…

Herbicide? Wait, that’s already taken.

I agree. It’s like how Helter Skelter didn’t show the Manson Family’s side. I don’t think it’s right for them to kill Sharon Tate but they were just stressed and paranoid during some really troubling times. blah blah balh lol.. bad writing..

On one hand, you’ve one generation making a joke on social media to express their discontent with the inaction and apathy of the elders as the planet faces existential challenges.

I wasn’t sure until the last two word of your post, but...

I’m sorry Mr. Sorkin, you’re a Boomer not an Xer. #BothSides

This is all so true, which is why I want to punch a wall now.

The assumption that “ok boomer” is unique to white people, or rather, that the generation discontent identified by “ok boomer” is unique to white people is weak sauce.

“Americans have trouble facing the truth. So they invent a kind of a soft language to protect themselves from it...Smug, greedy, well-fed white people have invented a language to conceal their sins. It’s as simple as that.” - George Carlin

My father’s cousin’s kid. Second cousin. Or whatever.

Ok, cousin’s mom (who, I guess, is also my cousin) can be a high maintenance pain the ass but it’s just rude to compare people to truly monstrous individuals. I mean, fine, based on my story if you want to compare cousin to Hitler or Lee Harvey Oswald that would be one thing. Internet ain’t beanbag. But comparing my…

What about saying Boo-urns?

Yeah, no. That’s total bullshit and you know it. Go get fucked. 

Technically, semi-formal dress means black tie after 6pm whereas formal means white tie and tails.

Campaigns aren’t like other work places. It can be an intense, intimate environment. Often, especially with the candidate, the lines between who is boss and who is a subordinate is blurred or even totally reversed. Often advance or communications staffers are giving orders to the candidate. Additionally, close…
