The ‘implication’ is that he isn’t actually trying very hard to address an entirely valid concern. He’s approached two women directors, one of which is unsuited and debatably beyond his approach of giving her pre-written scripts, and the other of which has been publicly busy with another film.

“...save your indignation that finally someone is taking one woman’s accusation of sexual assault seriously.”

I don’t know anything about Jodie Whittaker, but I’m excited for her arrival on Dr Who if only because it means Peter Capaldi’s run is over. I get that some people like him but his shtick got old for me pretty fast.

The Good Place and Crazy Ex-Girlfriend for me.

There will never be enough Good Place.

Y’all are just running through Drunk History episodes. One of my favorite parts of the Smalls story is that after he bought the house where he’d once been a slave, the former mistress, now suffering dementia (or possibly some form of PTSD) used to wander in asking “Don’t I live here?” Smalls and his wife eventually…

Stating the obvious: where’s the movie about this guy’s life?

After the war, Smalls returned to Charleston, buying his former master’s house, which had been seized for refusal to pay taxes.

Heyho! Dev here :) Have fun playing!
You’d have to go really, really slow to make it last a whole weekend though... Alas, more game content is on its way ;)

Stay funky,

“Mr. Handy, let’s start with the right one first!”

“Err, mum, General Atomics didn’t program me for this at the factory. Perhaps sir can do this whilst I attend to young Shaun?”

You know what might make me think these people (Lauer, CK, etc.) actually learned something? If they used some of their millions of dollars to support anti-sexual harassment groups. Prove that you are contrite and are attempting to be a better person. Disappearing for a year doesn’t do that. (Just rehashing what…

He wrote A Confederacy of Dunces?

fantastic write up... “social media seems to thrive on the endlessly renewable resources of drama and infighting, but there is no callout post big enough to take them down. Every callout, even this one, is just more content.” and that is the hell we’ve created for ourselves 

Honest question. Why won’t you bring back Gamer Cat? And remove Nerd Rage? I’m genuinely puzzled why this isn’t happening, despite all the weekly requests for it, and would like to know the reasoning behind it.

Nobody is calling him Jimmy Saville, that man was a literal rapist and the devil incarnate. But it’s not great, and it’s worse because he’s Paul Walker. When it’s some middling dude with no prospects who winds up with a 16 year old because they’re impressionable and fall or an older man then while it is creepy and…

Maybe this is just me speaking for myself, but I think dating someone less than half your age is intrinsically creepy.

Why would you knit socks for mittens?!

Harder Goes Soft On Weinstein

Looks to me like he got his gross opinions thoroughly repudiated by 30 other people, which is kind of how this thing is supposed to work. At this point, seeing him repeatedly told how and why he’s wrong and just how many people think he’s an asshole is more useful as a deterrent than just deleting the thread.

In the…
