Yeah, I was REALLY surprised they didn’t hit on all the actual terrible shit he was doing. Don’t get me wrong; it’s interesting to see people work their way out of a cult, but the man wasn’t just getting one over on the Dalai Lama and having a bevy of of-age girlfriends. He was sex trafficking minors and committing…

Totally agree. The main subjects of the documentary haven’t yet come to terms with their culpability. So it’s a lot of, “I’m so sorry. It’s not my fault.” All of the really horrific stuff is kept shrouded because they’re not ready to deal with it yet. And they have a lot to unpack because they’ve based their whole…

Yeah, I would watch that. I won’t watch season 2, though. I got to the point where I muted whenever he was on and looked away (at my laptop or whatever i was using to multitask my way through these way-too-many episodes). I would be interested in the experiences of the people, especially the women and POC who are left…

This Raniere Dude must have some personal magnetism that only comes through in person, and not onscreen, because watching it I found it hard to believe that all these women were willing to be the sex slaves of this stubby little bearded choad with greasy center-parted hair.

I know I can easily find this out if I looked up and read articles like a normal person, but I’ll ask anyway: Did Mark/Sarah/Bonnie not know of the worst of Raniere’s crimes (like someone captive for years, for one) until after his arrest, or did they only know what was shown in Season 1? Did the authorities also not…

I named a song I wrote Star Groveling honor of this movie 

Isn’t M and M that the one Paul Rudd uses on Conan instead of actually showing clips of his films? I don’t think I can watch; it has become quite a punchline...

Never Too Young To Die is so fucking awesome 

I’m guessing the Dems don’t want to commit to anything because someone might actually hold them to it after the election and they would look bad to blacks and progressives if they didn’t follow through, whereas the Trump admin is a 100% willing to lie outright and then not follow through on anything and it never…

Ice Cube doesn’t even seem to understand the basics of negotiation. All the Republicans want from him is the illusion of caring about black people. He gave that away for free while getting nothing in return.

“But then why is Herman Cain so angry?”
“Because you got him killed.”

It sounds like the highest level you can get in a pyramid scheme 

Yeah, it’s an ongoing problem for Black people that both parties take their vote for granted, so there’s no incentive to actually pass and enforce policies that will secure their rights.

And no way is Ice Cube allowed in the pool at any of 45’s clubs. 

I will go out on a limb here and say that Cube earnestly seems to be trying to make a positive difference, but my goodness is he a sucker if he believes one word of this horseshit.

Cube’s not wrong. You don’t work with the regimes you want, you work with the regimes you have.

“Why was Ben Carson so angry?”

thank you, i knew that clip sounded familiar and you nailed it

I must admit, I absolutely love the ending of that movie. Just a fifteen minute orgy of violence with about two dozen ninjas getting brutally dismembered by our heroes, and then ending with “Only through the elimination of violence can we achieve world peace.” It’s seriously one of the most unintentionally hilarious th…

Watched Mac and Me for a podcast recently and I think it was better than given credit for.
