Because Americans loudly complain about having to read when they think they should be watching

I was in high school in the late 90s. One of my classmates dated a senior in college when she was ~17. That shit is WEIRD

What? No. There are a BUNCH of characters that could be compressed into one that would serve several roles. FFS, I was only 7-8 books deep and recognized how he was padding the series out

I read the first seven books and fell off HARD after that. To this day, I only remember the Aes Sedai, the invading foreigners who cut their hair like Zorg from 5th Element and drink “kaf”, and that Nynaeve is possibly the most annoying character in all of fiction

Absolutely incorrect. They’re juicy, crunchy without being hard, sweet, and tart; they travel well, go with everything, and have the dream flavor profile

I got utterly hung up on Gascoigne. Been meaning to get back to it, but it’s hard to get excited for banging my head against a wall for the thousandth time when there are FAR more appealing games at my fingertips

Can’t all of this also be said about NFTs? The rise in, say, Cryptopunks looks from the outside to be propped up almost entirely by speculators and people who have a vested interest in raising the valuation of these “products” as a whole. Being able to buy one on Wednesday, and then flip it on Thursday for a 50K+

So you just unilaterally suck, huh? 

Does a character ever say “Boy, Jet Black sure is an unusual name for a white guy”? Maybe he’s light skinned! Maybe, in the case of Mustafa Shakir, he’s basically born to play the role (yoked af, deep voice, gravelly charm)!

He didn’t immediately get his gigs back, therefore the apology is worthless

I have an inherent distaste of quote unquote “wacky” characters so her dialogue did nothing for me. But this movie made better use of her than ANYTHING else I’ve seen, including Birds of Prey. Caught an ep of the Harley Quinn cartoon during the marathon on Saturday and I’ll give that a watch too

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA way to only show DOMESTIC numbers. Cherrypicking stats always tells the whole unfiltered story

Well, no, they don’t have a ton of backstory, but the way every other character behaves with (in Jabba’s case) or speaks about (in the Emperor’s case) hints around a shit-ton of backstory that we can infer as a result of their actions. Snoke just shows up, orders people around, then dies. A lot of backstory is heavily

I starred you, then unstarred after reading those last two paragraphs. Holdo does EVERYTHING right; if she doesn’t know who to trust, why would she tell ANYONE she suspects a spy is aboard? ESPECIALLY when there’s one person who’s being a dick and seemingly trying to stoke a mutiny at every turn???

I got worried for her after her appearance on Difficult People! She was a little TOO accurate to a woman in the hospital

Oh my god that “nuclear weapons” line hahahahahahahaha

When I was in high school, there was a girl who was, um, let’s say “flighty” to be diplomatic. Her parents were fucking LOADED, like one of the ten wealthiest families in this already-fairly-wealthy town in southern Indiana (please note: SOUTHERN Indiana. Carmel this ain’t)

It’s always dimly entertaining when the college freshman who just got a C in their arts course logs on

Nicholas D’Agosto is one of those guys I cannot watch in anything because he just oozes overeager theater kid energy. Trial & Error was a legitimately good show that I had trouble watching because I couldn’t stand his shitty Jim Halpert impression. I’ll be forever convinced that T&E gets a third season if it’s

Was this entire interview written by a marketing department? Q’s and A’s feel like they were spat out by a PR bot
