I don't think any children get groomed in this one tbf.

In your equally as valid/invalid opinion about subtext from a text that doesn't have any intent yes.

Well in your opinion yes. But that's you reading subtext that's not obejctive. Again that's fine but disagreement with your view is equally valid.

Mackie’s just as ok to not want the relationship to be gay or subtextually gay as everyone who wants it to be gay or subtextually gay as there’s no author (that matters) to rule on it either way.

Well there’s a set of people who think there is a subtext that says that. And there’s nothing wrong with that but the idea of an objective subtext when the “author is dead” is never gonna fly.

Can’t do death of the author if you can’t separate them from the work. 

Oh cool you finally killed the author (again even though the author was still dead). Now we can finally (again) separate the art from the artist.

Spot on. Two male characters who have a close personal relationship are very often shipped by fans and on the other side many non fans will call the realtionship "gay" as an insult. Mackie makes a great point in a somewhat sloppy way here.

“Marc Cherry" is quicker.

Lmao. Well played.

Its obligatory to post this below any news about Bourdain related stuff but also if anyone else has a friend or partner reluctant to watch his stuff for similar reasons the quickest way is to show them this:

Its reactionary borderline racist trash and Bourdain has better taste than that.

And the horrible irony is that Asia Argento turned out to be an abusive monster and that being a major cause of his suicide.

Interesting. Thanks for the info. Doesn't sound too bad now.

84 now because it's not that she's a woman it's because she's dumb that she's being compared to an animal.

Ive never read the comic but isn't Y The Last man going to be wildly problematic if all the transwomen with a Y chromosome are killed/disappeared?

Yeah ideally I'd want it PS5 only to take advantage of the SSD and some sweet sweet realm jumping so I'm more disappointed it going to be made with a base PS4 in mind even in a 2022 release but the delay itself is really no big deal.

Bingo. Lot of pre or half written articles got trashed when the only violence that occured on theaters during Jokers run was at a Frozen 2 screening. The moral calculus that predicted shootings cus of the movie is very very dumb.

Ah yes because violent abusive rapist and egotistical douche are synonymous.

Yes. He may indeed but a douche (he's a Hollywood actor after all) but one profile that clearly hates him isn't anything even remotely definitive and for someone so disliked by so many people is there was some smoking gun evidence it would likely have come out already.
