That sounds an awful like the kind of argument people make when they say people working at McDonald’s don’t deserve to be paid enough to live off of because it’s “not a real job”.

Seems like an awesome way to dissuade all but the biggest streamers from using Twitch as their platform of choice. The big ones can probably negotiate individual contracts but everyone else just has to take it or leave it. 

Please remember that she also has a different style of communicating, too. There’s a creator on TikTok who reads Britney’s IG captions in the Southern/Cajun dialect and accent that are common to the area where Brit grew up, and (having spent many years in the South) I think her writing/speaking style makes much more…

I’m sure there were a lot of people in that room who were going through their own demons but they didn't choose violence that day. Let's not forget Will Smith is a professional in many areas, and has been for decades. 

Is there a list of current members? I would bet there are a number of people in the Academy who should have resigned before Will Smith. And I say that even though I think what he did was unacceptable.

You can have a differing opinion on what form of justice should be met without mis-gendering someone.

As soon as I read, “Five Florida Middle School Students Arrested and Charged with Hate Crimes”, I knew they weren’t white.

When the perception of your identity is your product and you engage with the public in a manner to encourage your own celebrity for profit then how that identity is actually perceived by the public, your consumer, is no longer yours to control. The payoff is money and wealth. They made their baby a brand.

Stay tuned for Part 2 when Coogler attempts to deposit his settlement check.

What “bank robber” is going to say “please withdraw X amount from my account”? I mean come on.. the note is most likely to say “Give me all the money in your teller drawer and don’t press the panic button, I have a gun!”.

I mean this is just stupid..

You forget that the baseline here is Florida; if he was a white guy with a gun, Stand Yer Ground would have prevented the police from so much as arresting him.

It’s called projection, they want to hide the rape and incest because they are doing the rape and incest.

You should have seen when the guy who wrote “Save a Horse (Ride a Cowboy)” popped up at a school board meeting in Tennessee in favor of banning a bunch of books for being sexually explicit where he said a book that contains an act of pedophilia is literally worse than an actual pedophile encouraging people to get in…

I don’t think the implication was that the Ukrainians were worse than the Russians. Frankly, this isn’t the only racist shit being let out of the bag by white people forgetting that they need to filter that shit in front of a camera. The amount of blatant racism in the new news defies the usual gaslighting, although I…

True, so many wannabe-eugenicists.

There’s a sizeable number of people who’d rather their kid be dead than anything that deviates from whatever their view of a “normal” child is. See Autism Speaks whose main focus is to identify autism in the womb so parents can abort.

Exactly. I will never stop invoking the pieces of absolute garbage who, in the wake of Clinton’s loss, actually opined about how bathroom bills divided dems and cost them the election.

They want trans people to shut the fuck up and die in a corner. What they’re getting instead is this: I never vote for another dem…

Well you know, mediocrity is so much easier to swallow when you know there’s someone you *definitely, categorically* better than.

What always really gets me is the phenomenal hubris of most people complaining about trans athletes. Oh, so your daughter has two hunrded people in the state better than her, but one of them is trans, so OBVIOUSLY she’s been denied a fair chance?  Hubris.

It’s also international. An Australian conservative TERF senator (Clair Chandler, whose entire career seems to revolve around nothing, no issues whatsoever, beyond hating trans women) just put forward our first “no trans in sports” bill with the enthusiastic endorsement of the Prime Minister (“it’s a terrific Bill and…
