Well, earlier you commented that:

This. I’m so torn about The Vixen, her conflicts with Eureka, and Ru’s reaction to it all. While I can agree (from my priveledged position as a straight white woman) that being defensive by default and refusing to listen to what someone is trying to tell you makes it difficult for that person to try to help you no…

Your argument that the kids in the Atlantic article “weren’t really trans” is null & void. Because at one point they were 100% certain they WERE trans & were on the path to irreversibly altering their physical & psychological functioning with surgery & GnRH agonists/cross-sex hormones. That’s kinda the point.

I think a takeaway from Singal’s writing, whether it is his point or not, is that there is a spectrum even to those who feel they may be trans and that in the liberal’s world increasing desire to be woke and/or not accused of being transphobic, people are not asking children serious questions about this. Someone can…

I saw it when I was 13 and thought it was amazing, but didn’t notice the worst thing hiding in plain sight. The Tri-lambdas (Bernie Hudson and company) are mostly benign, albeit guys who are still problematic like literally all the other men (for the same reason as Gilbert, they’re okay with all the misogyny). But at…

What is it about “Africa?” I mean, the lyrics are kind of absurd, and it’s a very 80s song, but dammit all it really gets me. It captures this sense of longing and yearning and it’s really a beautiful song that is greater than the sum of its parts.

Okay so they support someone who keeps sex prisoners. That’s bad, but is that really so much worse than a publication suggesting that a contemporary luxury car brand should have better quality control than a 70s Vauxhall?

“Sorry, this content is not available in your country.”

Hard pass.

For a dude who loves science as much as he does, he sure is taking a decisively un-scientific approach to assessing the reliability of news.

She really did look like Fran Fines mom from The Nanny which Ru brought up. While Kameron looked liked her grandma.

truly incredible collection of comedic talent

The Vixen was already making herself look bad with her criticism. That Eureka kept trying to talk over her made Eureka look bad, too. Asia and the Vixen kept their mouths shut when other people were saying they deserved to go home because it *wasn’t their turn to talk.* (Well, and Eureka was savvy enough to give Asia…

Id like to comment on this article but Im still in the grays/greys.

Yeah that’s probably precisely what Facebook probably thinks will happen. But what will really happen is that a bunch of people on the right will choose Breitbart and InfoWars and RedState and The Daily Caller. And more people than I’d care to acknowledge on the left will pick Addicting Info and Occupy Democrats, and…

It is the purpose of the organs of journalism to report the news, and within the context of the entertainment press that includes reviews. It would be inappropriate for the A.V. Club to issue a blanket refusal to cover a certain organization due to political disagreements. But it is appropriate to (as possible) strip…

Seems like a solid stance to take. For those who seem incredulous — this isn’t about Disney “quaking”, it’s about refusing to take advantage of an unfair punishment they’ve handed a different publication. Trying to limit the (intended) disincentive to publish anti-Disney pieces.

Of course his name was Chad

I assumed when I watched the finale that the sisters had always been playing Littlefinger, that Sansa was leading him along in order to get him in the perfect position to expose him in front of the Knights of the Vale so she could deal with him and keep their support.

If you’re going to work backwards from the conclusion you want like these writers clearly did, you have to come up with a reasonable explanation as to why the characters would do what they do, and this... really isn’t. It actually just makes it worse. I assumed when I watched the finale that the sisters had always…

“In this novel, a heroic, righteous officer of the law spends decades chasing an evil, criminal fugitive who used a fake identity to hide in plain sight and even stole a loaf of bread when he was hungry. That criminal was a thief and deserved to be punished.”
