Thanks for writing this. I really wanted to like this show - its got elements of all things I love and I’m here to celebrate more diversity in running, writing, and performing horror and science fiction. But the staging, sets, and dialogue were... mechanical. Weird. Overly staged? After the first 15 mintues my…

Fucking E.T.

Ah, Elon finally got into cloning.

Boy george aesthetic x pitbull beats x bollywood groups x Timberlake dance moves. OK THEN.

Its because Sheldon is often sexist, and people still think being mean to women is funny, they just feel more comfortable when an outsider says sexist things because then they can say they we’re REALLY laughing at women.  Its like ironic racism.

I found the movie both refreshing, and at the same time terribly tone deaf to current issues. The film was racial diverse, but seems to embrace many of problematic behaviors of rich, white, elite assholes: gratuitous wealth, ignoring inequality, other new forms of racial injustice. Also patriarchy: it was woman…

Hi Whitney there is someone using the n-word on this thread, please remove.

I did not like your post it was an accident nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

I guess gay men in south invented shade, but the NYT is just so good at this.

My favorite story about this: when I was in grad school, I made a friend who had been a child in eastern Germany before the wall came down. She told me that after German reunification, they went to visit the western side of Germany and for the first few days were convinced they had entered a futuristic dystopian hell…

This is amazing and I love it.

ha! Ha! HAHAHAHAHAHa!

I don’t understand statements like this. If the church has been doing those things for 2000 years, how can they have an identity without it?

Jesus had no women disciples. He was a sexist as everyone else in that era and time. #nothingtoseehere

There is also a terrible conceit at the center of Christian films, which is that all non Christians want to be Christian and would be better off christian, also anyone who is non Christian is the enemy.

Which is also interested because Ford has said that they don’t really switch roles for the hosts.

well, its sort of a neat philosophical point isn’t it? Why isn’t Meave’s relationships with her daughter meaningful. If it is meaningful to her, what does the origin of the relationship matter?

Be careful. She’s a narcissist. She may seem brilliant, charming, and even emotionally vulnerable, but she’s also already showing that she wants you to care more about her (talking about herself for hours at end) then yourself (you have to stay late). She doesn’t care about you. As soon as you start establishing…

sure, but then they charge the consumer more, so, its not like costs don’t get passed on, unless you are very very careful.

Well, I do sometimes fear that initiatives like this are essentially a regressive tax. :(
