Here’s basically the same thing, in Mario form.

Thank you for clarifying that Cheese Jizz. Oops. Sorry. That was just an innocent, clumsy mistake. My bad.

I don’t really know one way or the other, so if Jezebel isn’t here next week I’ll know you’re right. I wanted to express appreciation for the work the staff does in raising social justice awareness. If Jezebel is closing down, it’s an even more appropriate time to say thanks, before everyone disperses. And if they…

A huge thank you to all the staff at Jezebel who report on the bigoted bullshit that happens across so many different forums. It must be so exhausting and infuriating, especially for staffers from the affected groups. I know that general sports writing is hella sexist, but assumed reporting on fucking gold medal…

Our culture is steeped in white supremacy. That means a lot of unconscious bias and viewing Black people differently from white people. So the intention doesn’t matter. Clumsiness doesn’t matter. Stop minimizing something that is common for those of us who don’t have our heads in the sand.

Seriously. Also, the fact that anyone could ever conceive of a headline like this perfectly demonstrates why people who talk about not seeing race, but seeing “individuals” are usually bullshitting themselves. It really IS still a struggle for POC to be recognized as anything beyond what their racial/ethnic label…

Wow...insulting much? I don’t even know if my cat is black, white, or purple. I don’t see color, unlike SOME people

“I don’t see color!”

My cat is black so I’m totally not racist.

The “I’m not racist! I have black friends!” crowd.

What is truly frightening is that these sexist and racist headlines and comments are not made to be intentionally malicious. Most people, even if they are internal scumbag bigots, will closet their demons for their professions. Nobody WANTS to be on the wrong end of these and having to make apologies and retractions.…

Nintendo: “Nobody likes Metroid anymore, it’s a dead frenchise. What we need now is a cooperative arena shooter that will really appeal to the kids!”

It’s because Metroid got nothing for it’s anniversary other than a spin-off instead of featuring Samus as a throw away line. It would have been fine to do it if this wasn’t the first Metroid game in like 5 years and if it wasn’t the anniversary. It’s just really bad timing on Nintendo’s part when their other…

I could not agree more. It would also give room to tell a Peter Parker story instead of a Spider-Man story, if that makes sense. Peter’s personal foibles were always as important as who he was fighting in those early issues.

Man, I’d love a fun Spider-Man movie where he fought a selection of his classic mooks. No “save the world” stakes, just a guy trying to the the right thing and finding the likes of Stilt-Man and Shocker in the way.

I feel like they could totally use the Tinkerer as a springboard for future media as a recurring character across the MCU, kinda like Coulson used to be. Long stretch, to say the least, but I’d love to see either Ghost, Taskmaster, or Mr. Fix do something like that, too. Supervillain associates are always so much fun…

Shocker and Tinkerer are one-off villains, the guys Spidey beats down for an iconic photo for the Bugle and maye have one line a piece. At least that’s how I hope they treat the Shocker if he’s ever cast, like he pops up in Ultimate Spider-Man. A villain who is defeated or wrapped up in webbing in just a few panels at…

And these are only the incidents that we hear about, because they happen to media-savvy people with access to publicity. Imagine how many times it happens that we never hear about.

Roger sounds like a whiny, overstepping bitch.

100% agreed. I was on the free lunch program in school and some days it was the best (or only) meal I had. It helped me focus and work hard to get good grades. I put myself through college (with the help of Pell grants), and now I have a great job and pay taxes. And I VERY MUCH want those tax dollars to give some…
