I would say that it challenges him in the sense that it says, “there are consequences to what you are saying and spouting.”

He’s not going to lose his job, but he could lose a portion of his audience, which could harm his bottom line. Where the problem is, is that he won’t (and clearly doesn’t) see people responding

I don’t think you were defending him.

But, to your first point that there should be a “teaching moment”, I just happen to think that at some point you’re not going to “teach” these people, no matter how well intentioned, and giving them the platform to even debate their ideas or the benefit of the doubt that they

But some of what he says here isn’t. We ‘re quick to label people we don’t agree with.

I’ll never understand people like you’s logic. Like “yes he said racist things but he shouldn’t be made to feel bad for wanting to persecute you! Instead hold his hand, politely explain why yelling the n word at black people is bad, and then hope that he learns to use the term thug instead!

The problem is that their own ignorant rot is contagious, and if you let it fester untreated, you have an outbreak.

Now that President Obama has moved on, it’s actually nice to see the new leader of the free world sitting in the Oval Office, and also Donald Trump.

This is what makes my blood boil - the fucking double standard being employed constantly. If Michelle and the girls had stayed in Chicago and needed round-the-clock, taxpayer-funded security, people would have demanded their heads. If President Obama had jetted off each weekend of his first months in office to hang

The sacred rocks thing did it for me. Like accidentally desecrating a site is bad enough, but using it as a “funny” story?? GTFO. You’re not cute, you’re not funny, you’re a colossal asshole.

I mean, breaking sacred rocks in Hawaii and then laughing about it was the nail in her coffin. I still watched this blooper reel in hopes of some Michael Sheen goodness but it was disappointing and limited.

So basically, because you haven’t experienced it it’s not a problem?

I’m not saying they should stop making Zelda. I’m saying they need to stop making their wonderful games dependent on crappy consoles. There’s no practical reason Breath of the Wild can’t be on Playstation or Steam or what have you.

Nintendo, please just bite the bullet and stop making hardware.

I’d concur with this, if only because of Mass Effect 3.

To me: absolutely. You can see in the clip of the actual ceremony that the card is pretty confusing, it only says the category in tiny letters at the bottom, which even I’d need glasses to make out. Warren Beatty clearly knew something was up, and made the mistake of going to Faye Dunaway, who clearly thought he was

He’ll be vindicated. How would anyone be expected to call an audible when they think they are being handed the wrong card with 7 seconds to react with 50 million people watching. You don’t expect you’re getting the wrong card and that someone else fucked up. You could see him thinking about it but not believing what

Anyone who ruins a quality cut of meat, even if it’s one of Trump’s shitty steaks, by overcooking it and dowsing it in ketchup is obviously a simpleton who should stick to ground beef. Unfortunately in this case the simpleton happens to be the President of the United States.

Slightly tangential: I believe all movies about LA, acting, New York, or Old Hollywood, should be banned from Oscar consideration.

And, what, because Inés Sainz is from Mexico she can't possibly know the difference between dressing tastefully and looking like a hot mess, because it's such a different culture? What, we Mexicans are completely ignorant of professional dress? Have never gotten the fashion memo that clothes are available in fabrics

Unfortunately the "freedom" men have with their two sentences means that deviation from that is frowned upon. Heavily. Women get variation, men do not. Since you get variation, you get more words. Sorta speaks for itself. That doesn't even go into things like hair, nails, and makeup.

I have no issue with female or male sideline reporters wearing tank tops because I don't think tank tops are inherently unprofessional. But I don't agree that it's a gendered issue. If male reporters are also not allowed to and also not wearing tank tops, they face the same pit stain and heat problems as the female
