I feel the same, I dont see anything wrong with the scene. If anything its fascinating to see a gay character in the 1700s in these type of situations. John simply mistaked Jamie’s kindness for something else.

Frank, I love you and will miss the shit out of Tobias Menzies on this show, but I don’t care what kind of “arrangement” you have with your wife, you don’t skip out on her med school graduation celebration dinner so you can go on a date. What the hell, dude? Also, his biding his time about the divorce was a pretty…

“Set in a post-apocalyptic Africa...”

So after colonialism.  

I’m not the one comparing the entire right to the people marching in the street with guns, nazi flags, hitler salutes, pepe, and murdering counter protesters with cars. In fact, my definition is pretty narrow - it’s not my fault that so many people on the right have decided that these things are ok.

I’d say the real nazis are the nazis? You know, the ones wearing pepe gear and marching with guns, nazi flags, hitler salutes, and driving over counter protesters?

So uhh, here’s the thing. If a racist hate group is using symbols - even if those symbols are specifically for fucking with journalists - it’s still their symbol. They are literally using a symbol to identify themselves - that’s what symbols are.

Hm, I’d actually put that shift post-HP, but that’s a good point.

I was generally with her up to that statement. Even people who identify strongly with a piece of fiction are seldom defined by it. Being #team whoever makes for fun discussions about why people chose that side but it’s unlikely to be their entire identity (except for the mentally ill).

The Harry Potter fandom didn’t do anything that the Sonic the Hedgehog fandom didn’t do 1000x more embarrassingly.

GEEKS INFURIATE AREA DORK

“That’s because Harry Potter normalized the idea that being a fan doesn’t just define what you like; it defines who you are.”

The Kinjans are not like use. They take everything very seriously. I made an offhand ST jape and I am getting hate-filled messages about ST

Frankly, I’m disappointed to see the AV Club indulging in this kind of paranoid fantasising. If we devoted as much energy to promoting economic growth, stable elections, and human rights north of the Wall, none of this would even be an issue.
