A “fish out of water” story but he’s still in the water! It’s gold, GOLD!!!

Starman with Jeff Bridges as the alien is a wonderful film.

I found it very similar to Avatar, but maybe just because of the blue lights on the fishman.

It’s a Beauty and the Beast mashup with The Creature from the Black Lagoon. It’s not hiding either inspiration, either.

Splash anyone?

I’m hoping for a personal wall of shame spot where women who had been sexually assaulted, harassed, and subjected to aggression micro- and macro- can post their stories and name their attackers.

I hope people come on to the Stanford campus just to vandalize that stupid plaque.

Hear, fucking hear.

I find it hilarious that Boyko is even trying to sell this “Jon is just jealous of me blah blah” bullshit. Larson’s work is goddamn impeccable and everybody already knew that. There’s not really any competition here.

Holy fuck yes I’m so glad that you covered this!!! I’m a tattoo collector and I’ve been following this since it first started going down. Boyko is a piece of shit and watching it unfold has been really satisfying. He is such a dog.

Those are witches

I don’t like her statement. It’s a whole not my fault. Probably because of the impending lawsuits. But yes lady you were complicit and to blame.

I assume MSU is about to be sued to hell and back over this. This is damage control.

Thanks to both jez and deadspin, esp, for staying on top of this coverage.

As a Lansing resident, and former Spartan, I think it is well past time for her to go. The entire Board of Directors of MSU and anyone at the university who ignored or covered up Nassar’s crimes should also go. Ideally, I’d like to see some charges filed against them. I do NOT believe for one minute that she knew…

The Billy Eichner tweet is saaaaavage.

I am always and forever here for Ann Curry dragging the shit out of everyone. She is incredible.

It doesn’t have to be anti-Semitic to be problematic. I tend to support Palestine in general, but at the same time I know many people from the region from both groups and it isn’t false to say that there are people who want Israel to be wiped out completely rather than reasoned with (not the people I know!).

Oh, but don’t you know? It’s politically convenient for people to conflate anti-Israel sentiments with anti-semitism.

I don’t know. Calling a state child murderers and illegal would definitely see her asked to step aside regardless if it was Arab or not. At least in Europe much of the population is definitely more sympathetic towards Arabs such as Palestine than Israel these days.
