The fact that they did apologize is besides the point? The fact that they personally acknowledged what they did was done in a stupid way... is not relevant? That is massively a brain dead stance.

I welcome any opportunity to shit on James Corden as I fucking despise him, but nothing today is going to top calling him “vaguely humanoid talk show host”. FANTASTIQUE

I mean, sure, they have actual professions like acting and singing, but they still do all the trite shit that influencers do. Kim K is ostensibly famous as an influencer, but her profile is as a huge celebrity too.

Definitely, and Lovato is certainly not an exception to that.

I genuinely don’t get this sentiment that you have about “preservation of language”. You’re not abnormal for having it, but who the fuck cares about what our speech will “turn into”?

I absolutely love You’re Next and The Guest, and this looks pretty fun too.

It’s par for the course with any influencer or otherwise tabloid-worthy figure, no? Everything is a sellable moment if you are selling your life in social media.

I noticed it right away too. Probably a slip-up, copypasting older info or something.

I believe so! I get most of my stuff secondhand regarding the nb community, they have so much going on and changing that its a bit overwhelming for someone not completely immersed in the community.

I’m absolutely going to try this.

No possibilities are ruled out.

I love the formatting of the series, and I think it’ll be refreshing to focus on different characters. If the series keeps on going I’d be fine seeing Dev show up in all of the seasons, but I don’t need 6 seasons of his character going through relationship after relationship and eventually settling down- there’s…

It’s in-universe with the other seasons, it’s likely got similar tones, Lena Waithe is playing the same character, it’s the same writers- what else do you need? If you think this show is just about Dev, that’s already not the case- the episode “New York, I Love You” is centred around completely different characters,…

All is cool for Lovato expressing their identity- but what the fuck did they mean by healer? Are they just being obtuse about seeing a psych? Their GP? Or is this some New Age Mysticism bs?

It took me entering three words into a search engine to find out they did- you should try it sometimes.

That’s actually happening- neopronouns are a big thing in the online nonbinary communities, and they choose anything from already-established ones like xe/xem, to getting super original an specific to a certain person- and even using preexisting nouns or phrases- like vamp/vampself.

Thanks! I am familiar as far as what Wynn’s video outlined on the Buck Angel situation, and she outlined it exactly as you have it up there; my takeaway, from Wynn’s video, is that:

Yeah, I think that the Greenberg/Gaetz bs must be the result of the utter lunacy that is the Florida branch of the GOP. Most of the GOP across the US operates exclusively out of self-interest (and when they aren’t, it’s to fulfill donor/lobbyist wants, which in turn is in the politician’s interest).

“Doubling down” is considerably reductive to what Wynn elaborated on- how do you actually come to that conclusion?

I tried to get into his podcast years ago, before he really leaned into the alt-right guests and being a whiney dipshit about political correctness or how his dumb ass doesn’t comprehend science (it wasn’t very good then either, he had interesting guests but didn’t bring much to the conversation); back then his…
