I’m NOT Asian-American, and also psyched to see this. I also kind of see where the outrage (or displeasure) comes from, though it does feel manufactured/overblown.

I think someone has an odd definition of what ‘betrayed’ means.

The key to eating at Casa Bonita is this: don’t. Order the cheapest thing on the menu (I believe the nacho salad, still like $10), take it to the table and push it to the side (it’s hard to fuck up nachos, but they manage), and start in on the sopapillas. Put up the flag and as soon as they drop off more and walk…

I liked the book on first read. Hit all the nostalgia feels, seemed clever enough as a concept. Then re-read it a couple years later. It did NOT age well. What felt like nostalgia turned to pandering, what seemed clever turned obvious.

It’s a personal preference, but I have a safer and easier way.

One early tweet used a comma, and someone erupted “Fake! McCarthy never uses commas!”

Ditto this - I was skeptical on his casting, but by the end of the series he WAS Takeshi Kovacs.

I’m not a huge Ayer fan; I remember hearing an interview where he said part of why he wanted to make Suicide Squad was because “I guess I should do one of those superhero movies.” Because that’s a good motivation to make a film.

Which might also be the exact subconscious thought at play when a man sees himself in a mirror. 

Yes, she was in Suicide Squad.

So, can you name a movie that you thought was actually good, or great? Or one that’s bad/terrible? It sounds like you maybe don’t pay attention too closely or care about things like plot or character, and that makes EVERYTHING sort of okay in the abstract.

Comment equivalent of a thumbs-up emoji.

Comcast/Xfinity provides an app which lets you control what devices have wifi access, and set time limits and/or manually pause/unpause access by device. For my 8-year old there’s a lot less drama when he has to take a break because “the internet is down” (I have paused his tablet/switch/etc.), versus me telling him…

That’s an... extreme take. Grilling on foil is great for a lot of things.

“It’s hard to sell a toy if Batman is also going down on someone.”

Huh. That’s interesting, and I’m sure it works, but... the stalk end is the handle for eating the thing. :)

My wife’s been microwaving corn for years and years, and wanted me to comment:
