I agree there are more Nassars out there than Spaceys/ Weinsteins. Athletic programs also wield a lot of power. But because the program and it’s connection to the US Team was the star, and not Nassar himself, it was much easier for him to fly under the public’s radar than a guy like Spacey. Or the student athletes we…

I wouldn’t call an off-handed joke a “rabid anti-tesla rant”, but I guess if you’re hyper-sensitive you could perceive it as such.

“Not what I was expecting” is not a phrase I like to see any critic use, ever. It’s a sign of a closed mind, and it gives me an initial impression that what I’m about to read will be tinged with unwarranted dissatisfaction. So I usually just stop reading there.

“It reminded me, unfortunately, of Altered Carbon, a Netflix series that looks cool and has a great premise, but is shallow as a puddle, uninterested in delving below the surface of the cyberpunk aesthetic to actually say much beyond “rich people are bad.”

What did you think was going to happen? You should have written

If it was a Audi you would have written 3,000 words on how terribly identical it is with the larger model.

Guessing a lot of people are going to boycott the film.. question: If let’s say the lead costume designer or one of the script writers were accused of sexual assault... do you think there would be the same level of outrage? Or is this only reserved for key players like main actors and directors?

No one’s “forcing her to take birth control”. Like ALL other athletes she has to hit the eligibility criteria for the group she wants to race in. How she meets that criteria is not their business. And as the article points out, she has a number of alternatives if she is unwilling or unable to meet the criteria. She…

I really hope this slippery slope ends up with all female sports being dominated by male to female transsexuals.

Good to know that you would similarly fail at a reading comprehension test.

Well, they’re not the only ones to use scantily clad women to attract interest.

The thing is, the Japanese internment camps weren’t originally a Nazi idea - it was an american one. Hitler admired the way the US dealt with native americans (although the term “Final Solution” actually came from a Canadian politician, it was in regards to “The Indian Problem”).

“And there are the journalists who seem intent on digging up disturbing anecdotes”

I’m glad she’s up-front about it. A lot of people (particularly in the west) seem to be really coy about whether or not they’ve had work done. It perpetuates the stigma against plastic surgery, and promotes an unhealthy obsession with unnaturally “natural” beauty. Getting plastic surgery to achieve a look you want is…

How is everyone supposed to know how great I’m doing like that? I need a 3 year old, off-lease, base 3-series to let everyone know I’m better than them.

After three children, I can attest that skin to skin contact with your newborn does foster a great bond with your children. It also is the first test of fatherhood - not dropping your child when they grab a fistful of chest hair and yank it out.

I was gonna judge, but uhmm yeah, she does look better now. Good for her.

Elsie is a good stand-in for the audience. She just wanders around confused and complaining about how fucking stupid everything is.

Why is Dolores so bad this season? Performance? Writing? I can’t figure it out. She was incredible throughout S1 and now she’s the worst part of the show.

on mother’s day, will you have an article about all of the #dadmoms out there too?
