2015/2016: Hollywood/Oscars so white!

Seems like the place to put this:

Pre-post disclosure: I identify as a Centrist, and have consistently voted Democrat (with exception for a few local offices, as I really do try to look at candidates rather than party affiliation—and every now and again, the Republican candidate was the better option) since 2000. I lean Left, despite my attempts to

Why is it always absolutes with these dingle dicks? There is a mile-wide line between not wanting you to parade around glorifying one of the most horrific groups of people to ever walk the Earth and OMG THEY’RE ERASING HISTORY!!!

This just proves that is the worst possible response.

Yes, this exactly. My parents are Trump supporters. They are also white, well to do baby boomers who live in a very insular Florida community. Fox news diehards, of course.

RE: Carmen Sandiego Sketch

Ill be sure to try this tomorrow when i get my switch, not today though because apparently ups are GIANT PUSSIES who cant be bothered to make sunday deliveries*

The magnetic implant is revealed early on. The article itself reveals more plot points than anything I wrote about the film. So I don’t really understand your complaint. I think the Iron Man comparison (and the first ten minutes of the film) give away the lack of supernatural/psionic elements.

It is not very much like Chronicle. The powers are indeed the result of a magnetic implant amplified by a device he carries with him. I think “Iron Man meets Spider Man” is a better description. And the movie is not really about the final confrontation between good and bad with incredible effects. It is a low key

I feel like this review is missing the point. Maybe the mix of familiar and fantastical is off balance for this film; I haven’t seen it yet. But it’s not like superhero flicks with POC leads grow on trees, either. I’m interested to know if the theme of this movie is that “gifts can’t solve everything” or if it’s

“the live sports I need to.” Profiles in Courage

If you’re so firmly conservative that your mind goes immediately to “ESPN’s liberal agenda is killing them!”, you are likely a strong supporter of Fox News. If you have Fox News, you have cable. And if you have cable...you’re paying ESPN like $80 a year even if you never touch the channel.

Obviously the newly out of work sissy liberal sports reporters can get real jobs as coal miners in our refreshed coal mining industry!

If the creative people with whom Anita Sarkeesian meets have so little conviction in their work that they wilt to her whims the moment she talks about what she values in the depiction of women in games, that’s on them, no?

Your position might make sense were the issue to be in the original text. But it isn’t, you are upset they didn’t like your joke. Part of translation, if your intention is absolute accuracy, is to represent the original content as accurately as possible in the new language. In this case an accurate translation would

I’ve had a juicer for years. Just a good, old-fashioned juicer that I got on discount when one of my favorite restaurants closed up shop after their owner had a pretty bad heart attack (it was a family-owned business).

If you own one of these machines, or invested money in it, your right to vote should be taken away because you are fucking idiot.

There's clearly some sort of feud between CN & DC animation. Possibly going back to various Green Lantern & Young Justice people taking shots at CN on the day of that embarrassing last minute decision to pull DC Nation from its Saturday morning slot to try to force feed some numbers for their (at the time) struggling
