I think it’s also the “wait so you’re telling me that wizards had the ability to stop WWII but didn’t” and also “the snake that Neville heroically killed was actually an innocent person with a blood curse all along” part where the movies are just...not good.

I saw this on twitter and.. I kind of agree with Nicki (and I love Bon Iver and always have). I see all you saying they’re both bad, I don’t care. My point, and I made this point on another post about this year’s Grammy nods (abt Phoebe Bridgers), is that this ‘academy’ has no fucking idea what the word NEW means. Bon…

White privilege means that, if you join the Marines and get an education, you can smoothly transition into white liberal society despite your impoverished background. An opportunity that a similarly impoverished POC will not have. This never occurred to you?

My experience is that people who say white privilege “ doesn’t afford you any advantages” don’t really know any Black or Latino people (though I’d find that hard to believe if you’re from Texas). I grew up in a town like that but the reason there weren’t any Blacks in the area traced back to a series of high profile…

Also it’s sometimes used an anti-semitic dogwhistle, especially if the words “costal elites” or “globalist” are used in conjunction as synonyms.

Subjectively & objectively speaking it’s because their catalogue is full of bops haha

Them Savage Brothers (Fred and Ben) are, it seems, a couple of Grade A assholes.

her public support of U.K. researcher Maya Forstater after Forstater lost her job for being “gender critical,”

You can frame it as only an opinion, but hate speech has consequences. Already it’s been used as justification to prevent protection to trans people in the states and the UK. Already it’s caused an uptick in hate towards trans people online and in real life. You’re worried about people having to move from one game to…

Whether or not all women are women is not a matter of opinion. It’s a matter of fact. She makes counterfactual claims of fact.

I think people forget that Alcohol doesn’t “turn you into something else”.. it only lowers inhibitions.. basically the “REAL” you comes out..

So if he was drinking. that’s even more troubling.. it shows that he WANTS to kill people, but doesn’t (most likely for fear of reprisal and the repercussions on him)

In case anyone is thinking, “Wow, where’d all these racists come from?” the answer is it’s always been like this. The only difference is now we can record and disseminate it.

Yeah, white people are mad. It’s pretty scary when power you didn’t earn is threatened. How did you get it? You don’t know! You just woke up this way!

When you hear hoofbeats, better to assume horses instead of zebra.

I read a theory it’s the wad of cotton you get from a bottle of pills. You know, because the cop wouldn’t want to touch a real tampon, gross.

Looking forward to the footage of hundreds of surveillance cameras catching him buying a bottle of Advil ten minutes before he came back into the building.

Replying to myself because this kind seems to be a better match. It’s called a “fluff roll”
