The last few seasons of Adventure Time got a little mythology heavy, so I’m happy to hear that these sound like those random one-off side character episodes that were the show at its best for me. Though since these are movies, I guess I am a little weary it could turn out like some of those 8 part episodes that never…

For me, it has a lot to do with that awkward taco/burrito metaphor being the only real nod to trans people existing in a show whose central obsession is hormones and sexuality. It’s not a capital crime but it’s definitely a noticeable void.

I do think Nick Kroll has a constructive approach here, but I think it’s a while before Big Mouth is as enlightened a show about sex and gender as it’s constantly being marketed. It’s really weird that 3 seasons in that it seems the most the show has done with transgender representation is some iffy jokes. The way…

Comic books are just stories told with pictures and words at the same time, but they’re not obligated to dole out both in equal proportions. It’s pretty common for especially more action oriented comics to have many visual panels with no text, so I don’t see how going into just text with no pictures is a “failure of…

I mean, it’s not like we’re in the comments section for Nick Kroll’s funeral. The article is a review of a TV show, so it makes a lot of sense that I’d leave a comment about my own personal feelings on that show.

Honestly, silly wedding videos sound like a great idea. It’s not really a genre that’s known for it’s watchability and entertainment value anyways.

I actually agree with you in general, I just think you’re painting with a bit broad of a brush when it’s still fairly common to hear any individual on the left denounce both private prisons in America and Uighur concentration camps. I’m actually kind of interested in researching some more specific examples, but like…

What American liberals are you talking about? Most left of center publications and shows I’ve been tuned in are fairly alarmed about rampant human rights violations both domestically and internationally.

I really wanted to like the first two seasons, but it just came across as woke Family Guy in the end. No matter how much I appreciated the compassionate perspective, the jokes never really hit for me, especially when it came to the coach character.

There’s a lot of real big differences, especially the guitars on “All Mirrors” versus the pianos on “Titanic Rising”. And they’re becoming more distinct as I get to know “All Mirrors” better, but in general my impression is still that they have a very similar mood, feel, and use of strings/70’s rock influences. That’s…

I didn’t know there was a stringsless version of the album theoretically out there, and I’m super excited for it whenever it comes. For me the big issue is Weyes Blood’s “Titanic Rising” also came out this year with basically the same instrumentation and knocked it out of the park. This album isn’t bad but it just…

It’s tough though, because the whole point is that they can use the non-racist meaning as plausible deniability for their own intentionally racist use. So while I’m never offended by someone using it ignorant of its other uses, I’m also personally not going to give cover for people to claim their racism isn’t racist. 

It’s an incredibly well convincing, but the room doesn’t match the layout it would have had at the time the incident supposedly happened. So it’s not a deep-fake specifically, but it’s definitely not showing what it’s purported to either:

I swear it’s my favorite TV show of all time, but I’m too scared of getting sucked back in to watch it again and confirm that for a long while.

To me he’s always going to be Tex, the racist plantworker trying to nudge bigotry along in Fernwood on Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman. It’s obviously not his biggest role, but he definitely turned a fairly cartoony side character on a satirical soap opera into an entrancing presence with a surprising amount of depth. Once…

I’m kind of okay either way if this comes back. Pretty much everything was perfectly done and I’d love to see more, at the same time I’m not sure how they can maintain the same tightrope of ambiguity into further stories. But Kate Purdy’s saying in this interview that they have a multi-season arc planned out, so who…

The animation never gets consistent, but after the first episode the animation gets a lot crazier really quickly. 

He’s just trying to communicate with us in the only way he knows how,

Except the issue usually encountered is most of the great society and safety net has been privatized and gentrified away at this point. Big cities tend to be more liberal than the rest of the country but they’re still basically run by the people who have and want the most money. For the most part, they’re probably not…

I was really hoping for Del the Funky Homosapien but maybe he’ll be there for the honorary Oscar or something.
