1. Mia never went to the police about the allegation of sexual abuse.

I thought about this for a while..and I get that we Asian Americans have a LOONG way to go before one of us gets to play BOND or SUPERMAN or whatever, but this yellowface shit has GOT TO STOP. Emma Stone, Scar Jo..should NOT be playing asian characters.

I love the whitewashedOUT hash tag. I love seeing that kind of activism I’m glad they are speaking up and I will speak up with them as well. John Cho is very hot btw

WHY CAN’T WE HAVE BOTH GODDAMMIT

Also a good option.

John Cho and Constance Wu need to be in more stuff! Seriously, they are both awesome.

Well, the ability to put your career aspirations over a lifetime of sexual predation is because of rape culture. And rape culture continues to exist, in part, because people excuse rapists with excuses like “we can’t know for sure.”

Sorry, love it! Looks super fun. And bonus: she’s not co-opting black girl hair (to my knowledge)

The joke is two of the most popular Black comedians of today got a green light from a major Hollywood studio and the budget to make whatever movie they wanted, and they made a movie about a cat.

The joke is supposed to be at the expense of action movies where the heroes are on a quest to save the damsel in distress. This movie is making fun of that by putting a cat in the damsel role and turning the hyper-masculine heroes into cat daddies.

The chains are not of her own making. The chains were put on everybody in 79, when the theocratic system was installed. She is clearly working from within that system to push things in the right direction. I’m an atheist, so my feelings for religion are beyond bleak, but I can recognize a subversive hero when I see…

Its always fun to imagine how people have sex based on their music: the Lady from Beach House, all candles and baby oil and half asleep? The Black Keys would be like.... overcompensating? Tame Impala, weed sex. Animal Collective, shroom sex. Vampire Weekend... pass. My indie band sex fantasy involves Henry Rollins,…

I hope you aren’t feeling piled on. Trust that for those of us with anxiety issues, we are also annoyed by the peeps who use lateness as some sort of power trip. We get lumped into that inconsiderate group and end up having to explain ourselves to people and its rough because of the stigma and shame involved. I’ve had…

I am an on-time person too, but doing some study on monochronic vs polychronic cultures has given me some new understanding of my dear friends who are constantly late.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for expressing so beautifully what I couldn’t. The coping strategies, the struggle with time management, not being able to predict how long something will take, nor being able to redirect energy when another task needs to be done. And the crushing shame. I cannot tell you how much…

I remember, oddly enough, watching Robert Downey Jr.’s interview on Inside the Actor’s Studio several years ago. Lipton was asking about what he was like to work with as an actor on set, and he basically framed his response around the idea that to be unprepared or to waste time quibbling about “not feeling the…

In his latest special, Patton Oswalt mentions something called “stage health.” It’s basically the phenomenon by which a performer is able to summon enough energy to power through a show, no matter how shitty they’re feeling. I’ve had to step in front of cameras when I was a disgusting, effluvial mess and somehow…

I tried to write a post earlier and I just couldn’t quite temper my anger at someone who has clearly suffered a devastating loss and is grieving. I don’t want to be that kind of a bitch.

I’m chronically 5-15mins late and it’s because of near crippling social anxiety. For me, it’s not a power play but simply the end result of hours of trying to psych myself up for lots of interactions. I’m sure it doesn’t always help those interactions I dread by being late, but I’m trying very, very hard to function…

I took a theatre class in college where one of the students blamed a poor performance on him “just not fully feeling the moment and the character,” probably thinking that it would get him bonus points for, I dunno, aspiring to a ~deep connection~ with the material.
