Everything I can find calls the belief that Queen Charlotte was “Black” as “wildly discredited.” Similar to how Cleopatra was obviously Greek and not sub-Saharan Black African in any way.

Dude, Philip DeFranco is more a threat to traditional print media than Kotaku.

“the online blogging arena which set fire to countless blue collar jobs“

Maam this is a video game website

I understand your concerns about the impact of automation on blue-collar jobs, and it’s essential to address those issues. However, it’s not fair to dismiss the concerns of white-collar workers who are also facing job losses due to automation.

For each of these episodes you could probably find the corresponding South Park episode that ripped it off, and instantly get a “10 best South Park episodes” list. Standards are way lower for that show. “Oh we make fun of everyone [who’s not a rich straight white male libertarian].”

“Elon Musk appearing on your show” is this generation’s “jumping the shark.” I put up with Rick and Morty’s bad fanbase for a while to enjoy the occasional good parts until that Musk episode, and then it made me think, “Why am I doing this to myself for people who thought this was a good idea?”

I watched Prometheus again recently. It’s really telling how many of the problems with the movie (not all of them, but a lot of them), have a lot more to do with the staging of the characters than the actual script itself.

Seems off for the Simpsons to have a rape joke. Really more of a South Park style bit. The Simpsons usually seems to run on the nicer side of Married with Children as far as the types and meanness of the jokes.

The fact that people stick up for Prometheus - like, passionately defend it and claim it’s a classic piece of Sci-Fi cinema - is beyond my comprehension.

Pretty much. Season 8 is the last Golden Era season, and Season 9 still has a few dying gasps. The Principal and the Pauper is bad, and the last sequence of that year’s Treehouse of Horror falls pretty flat.

wow i just checked what episode that is and yeah that’s *exactly* the point where i was like ‘uh what’s going on with this show.’ i was planning on watching the first ten seasons because that’s what people usually say you should watch, but i definitely didn’t make it far past that episode

To say S11 is the end of the golden era is waaaay too late. Personally, I place it exactly at the second half of the Tamzarian episode.

Okay, so I probably needn’t feel too bad that I haven’t watched The Simpsons in like twenty years? 🤔

Doing a When Harry Met Sally parody 30 years after the fact is old-people-bubble levels only rivaled by Vince McMahon making his young wrestlers make references to Sally Jesse Raphael in the 2020s

Is this like some MRA bullshit that I’ve been previously unaware of? Other than having a new nano-tech arm her character design hasn’t changed at all. Are you just mad that the Guardian’s uniform doesn’t highlight her breasts the same as the purple suit did?

What are you talking about???

Hahahahahahaha

Aren’t they a bunch of Jokers?
