If you want to know there’s a spoiler regarding Eli’s fate in the description for the next episode on IMDB

I mean, the man’s not wrong here.

Also if you said that getting the vaccine doesn’t wholly protect you from catching Covid you would also be banned for spreading misinformation. That is also fact now.

He has people on his show who are anti vax.  Anyone giving those kind of people airtime without specifically shooting down all of what they’re saying is actively working against public health and safety.

I’m now wondering if Spotify’s contract with Rogan just doesn’t have any outs at all, because the lies in Rogan’s statement would be enough to get most anybody fired for the way they reflect on the company.

“Like, for instance, eight months ago, if you said ‘if you get vaccinated, you can still catch COVID and you can still spread COVID,’ you would be removed from social media. They would ban you from certain platforms.”

Well, at least you didn’t make the mistake of adding anything useful to the conversation.

“The AV Club wouldn’t be deliberately misleading us, would they?”

It’s a stunt casting of a woman who has nothing but inflammatory comments to make and believes in truly hurtful, awful rhetoric that exists purely to discredit folks in vulnerable positions.

Yeah, I’d definitely rather focus on the fact that she shared, like, a thing implying that grieving parents’ pain was false then the fact that she’s not the best voice actor.

Is it that modest? It’s generally agreed by anyone who tries one of Bob’s burgers that they are very good. He shows great creativity in what he does. Compare that to Pesto (or many of the other restaurateurs we have seen) who can’t make a decent burger, and who is known to cut corners, and Bob seems to be something…

The point is that it made headlines (at least in the nerd community and entertainment trades) and unlike, say Emma Stone, the original actor backed out. This is fairly unprecedented.  I’d be surprised if a journalist didn’t ask about the process behind the casting. 

You seem like a prick. I’m already working on my “you seem like a massive prick, yup” material for the finale review comments.

It sounds like you’re watching The Expanse.

Homeworld. The Mothership. Agnus Dei.

Incidentally, if Chevy wants to sell a zillion Bolts, it would be very easy.

In short, maybe they just understand the issue better than you.  Also, clapping at a speech is meaningless anyway.

I love these lists... please do not misinterpret the gripe below to be about the list.

Ok internet - Am I just getting old and crabby, or has it been some time since an original Sci-Fi story has come our way?

I see 24 Game of Thrones, A Martian, and believe it or not Spaceballs. I miss the days of innovative sci-fi. As…
