Superstar arrested for victimless de minimus crime. Maybe he can use his money and influence to attack draconean DUI/DWI penalties.  

The Devil’s Chord was really something else. I finished it thinking “what the hell did I just watch?” It was a bad combination of camp, pathos, and just plain silliness. Those same things can be great if put together in the right way.

I’m missing the part where Ukraine invaded Russia, killed a bunch of people, took children and elderly as hostages and still refuses to release them, and basically f*cked around and found out.


Cheryl, these people and their edgelord desecration of children’s icons is unworthy of your attention. I don’t want to see it showing up in my media scrolling for the few precious minutes of time I have to check io9 during the day.

Amen. That shit is disgusting and I visit io9 less and less every time I see coverage of it. It’s beneath what this site used to stand for.

He is not worth the investment in PR that Marvel would have to make to rehab his image, plus he is kind of a shit actor. His performances in every Marvel production were either unintentionally comic or just painful to watch. I have no idea how people thought he was a leading man worth of a role like Kang. When

So... we’re done with this guy, right? He has been nothing but a bore in the MCU and everyone who has spoken up since his arrest has called him an absolute asshole and pain to work with. I hope the MCU find some other big bad for its next phase and leaves Kang and his insufferable variants in the past.

Exactly. Women who disagree are automatically written by incels. What crap. They all have different motivations. Hence conflict. 

The VOY nods were fricking hilarious. When I saw the assimilated salamander sitting in Janeway’s chair I just laughed out loud. I needed that after a long day at work.

Transphopic = afraid that of trans people. I am not afraid of trans people. Be who you want, but do not pretend your experience is the same as mine.

I would love to see him tackle Dune Messiah! 

Overall I liked it. I have some production nitpicks like the bouncy foam head pieces and Ahsoka’s homeless space poncho. It really seemed like the actors were very reluctant to make any bold choices in their performances, which is understandable given the legacy of these characters.

I agree that sine if the characterization feels very cautious, like the actor’s are not quite sure what direction they want to take the characters. And Ahsoka’s head tentacle things look especially goofy here when they bounce around like they’re made of foam, which they probably are.

No, honey.

And by the way, I am not trans phobic. I love everyone who wants to be who they want to be. My experience as a cisgender male tells me that being a trans man is definitely not the same as being a cisgender man. Using different pronouns doesn’t make someone a different person. 

If a man doesn’t have a penis and testicles, he’s not a man. And I am so very tired of anyone saying otherwise.

So, Selene is finally in play... And Elayne? They’re just going to skip the whole Andor introduction entirely I guess and start with her being an novice in the White Tower. Seems odd for such a main character but this show has been very committed to streamlining the story as much as possible. Sometimes it works...

So is WoT finally going to introduce more of the Forsaken? Because the absence of Aginor and Balthamel in the season finale was one of my biggest gripes…

Everything about season 3 has been fine. I don’t get all the online hate about it. Ciri does super elder magic Ciri stuff, Geralt kills things and then gets his ass kicked, Yennifer is looking good in her dresses, and Jaskier is having gay sex. There’s nothing to criticize here.

The movie was just bad. I know Johnson really worked hard to make it happen, but the end product was not enjoyable.
