Turns out the tower is surprisingly well lit.

Based on the reactions of Selina and, especially, Andrew to the news that Catherine would be getting the bulk of MeeMaw's estate, seems like it would be worth considerably more than 50 million.

Hey, Catherine's going to be rich as shit! Yay! I hope she's got the fortitude to tell both her mom and dad to fuck off when they come begging.

Fun fact: that's Keifer Sutherland's daughter / Donald Sutherland's granddaughter.

I read them young enough, and from a nominally Christian household that was not very religious, that all the allegory was lost on me. I just remember very mathy stuff, like hypercubes, being discussed.

They do parody, not satire. Satire must take a stance. The closet SNL comes is parodying stances.

I read all of these books many times as a kid. Honestly, they are why I went on to study math. Good on this production for looking to break the white-is-default tendency of casting.

Well, lets see. Among many other horrendous ramifications, racism enslaved a people for centuries and calcified a system of prejudice that maintains oppression even after the outlawing of slavery. On the other hand, smug people sometimes make me feel angry and stupid. So it's a toss up, for sure.

Yes. You're bringing it. It's not intrinsic to the video. You think the name sounds like a black name. That's your thing. That that subjective view is, literally, the only support you have your claim. Everything else is just a rationalization based on YOU thinking the name sounds black.

There is nothing stereotypically black about that name other that what your prejudices are bringing to it. It's a hick name. A country bumpkin name. Like Cletus the slack-jawed yokel. He's representing the average stoned idiot. Any issues of race, you are bringing yourself.

"his voice and name are straight out of blaxplotation"

I understand. And honestly, in my snide way, "lighten up" was most concise advice I could come up with. People who are having good days/weeks don't tend to write paragraph rants about Leeroy Jenkins.

I actually thought about the chicken thing just now, but the voice and frankly the name never sounded black to me. The voice just sounds like a stoned white guy and I've known leroys and I've know jenkinses and none of them have been black.

Lighten up, meat.

He's not dead. We're telling you to lighten up.

How do you read racism into any of this?

You know who else seems like an asshole?

Yeah, same one.

Real question: are furries into lizards? Aren't mammals more their thing?
