Nature’s Double Tap?

Oh, there certainly was critique... but, as you said, it was more about Marvel apparently wanting her to be slimmer and more “traditionally” feminine (something which has been confirmed by those involved, as it happened) rather than anything to do with “ownership over women’s bodies”.

It wouldn’t surprise me if that sort of mentality was behind these decisions. “Programming should be either cheap or borderline free with no crew beyond a few cameras and an editor. What’s with all these fancy directors and writers and such? We don’t need them. We can do a show on people mourning Mamma June after she…

I remember liking Jurgens once upon a time, but this art is just... bad.  The perspective is terrible.  Are all the heroes lying down on their backs?

the future of the site will belong to a capital organization that will find a way to monetize its decline.

Uh no.... dude... It really is the payment processors. It’s far from the first time they’ve wielded this against a platform. Your proof that it’s a political conspiracy is a letter Paul Gosar wrote to Democrats who threw it in the trash.

They should rebrand it to QuibiFans.

It’s not that investors are dumb, it’s that capitalism in general has been so good at funneling money upwards so that there’s literally trillions of dollars sloshing around with little to do.

What I can’t wrap my mind around is that in order to make themselves a better investment, they destroyed the part of their business that makes them profitable in the first place. And what is so staggering to me is that I’m certain some investors are still going to see fit dumbing a ton of money in this thing.

I’m in, but only if the movie is 50% guys in X-wings buzzing the tower and a sweaty Porkins playing volleyball.

I’m going to go out on a limb and say that someone who was crowned “most fuckable of her barely legal peers” by a bunch of old men was probably not thinking hard about any of the implications involved. 

It’s easy to underestimate how much of what we now view as Wednesday’s personality was really established Christina Ricci’s version. I’ve been rewatching all of the original series on Pluto TV (it totally holds up, btw) and one of the things that I noticed is that Wednesday and Pugsley are barely in it. They appear…

My first concert was Reel Big Fish, the Mr. T Experience opened for them, and although you don’t hear about either they definitely influenced my musical tastes. It’s so nice to have a little humor in music, and that is a rare quality.

Ska doesn’t need to be rehabbed, it’s never stopped being awesome.

. . . but then you don’t have your pet any more.

Me too. I’m a Black NASCAR fan and it’s very common for drivers to celebrate multiple wins at a particular track or race by throwing up fingers. I’ve spent more time than I care to admit scrutinizing photos of drivers who do this for their third. Especially since I’ve only ever used the “w” method for this. And of…

On the one hand, I used to use the “OK” symbol...like it has always been used until the last few years in which alt right shitlords decided to co-opt it. I will occasionally feel myself doing it and have to remind myself “Oh, wait, this belongs to incel Nazis now, which is SO SUPER FUCKING COOL AND LOGICAL” and switch…

Yes it sucks a couple dozen local businesses won’t benefit from the movie directly, but there’s gonna be a whole lotta other productions that will still film there an not give a shit. The repercussions here are bigger than this, and he has a chance to make a potentially powerful statement here. Which I guess in a way…

No one said it couldn’t be done. People said it was over priced and less efficient then existing transit options.
Everyone knew it could be done, its just pointless and dumb

Thank you for this! It’s just like real-life, which I guess is the complaint- not everyone in life is for you to even have the option for sex.
