I work in a hospital and I’m wearing one right now because we don’r want yet another ward shutdown due to an outbreak.

When they stop using the same file photo from over a year ago

I can’t speak for Danny boy in the photo up top, but I’ll wear a mask if I feel like I might be sick, or if I’m going to a location (say, a hospital) where there’s likely going to be a lot more people than usual who are vulnerable to infection.

Goodbye Wisconsin!

the same shit they do to everyone else?

Red Forman: “Dumbass.”

I’m gonna go the other way with this one, I was fully expecting another mistrial followed by the DA declining to try a third time.  Kudos for not giving up the first time.

I like the 1975's music, as do (I am told) many people under the age of 30 (i.e. not the current demographic of this commentariat). I don’t know that much about the singer, but he seems to be “problematic” in as much as he’s an asshole and an on-again/off-again drug addict. Which doesn’t really feel like a novel…

I don’t think so. 2 cast members got arrested for drunk driving that year, Rodriguez and Cynthia Watros (white) and both of their characters were killed in the same scene. It seems obvious they were killed off for embarrassing the show, not for any racial reason

Lindelof in particular has since led shows that have taken a lot of these issues on. I’d be curious to hear if his subsequent workplaces have righted the wrongs of the past. 

a pretty huge act.

“neither picked my pocket nor broken my leg; but has tickled my ass with a feather”

Yeah, I read up on it, and it all reads like a bunch of hacky jokes that didn’t land. It was the same brand of “offensive” as some dipshit yelling dead baby jokes in a McDonalds.

Yep. Which is why we now have legions of emotionally stunted, large children throwing memes at each other in shitpost groups and thinking they’re actual “soldiers” in an actual “war.”

The 1975 was that band that sounded like a Target commercial on SNL, right?

ETA: Tymothieeeeee Chalalalalmeuet’s older brother is right: it IS dumb to be mad on the Internet.

At the time I type this there are 4 comments plus the article all proving Healy’s point.

Gee, Matty, the internet is the only reason I know you exist.

I mean, he’s not exactly wrong: Internet outrage is very popular, makes a good amount of money and cynically trades on people’s lizard brain emotions.
