Well, sure, there’s the Emperor Ming treatment. But that’s only necessary if the Emperor wants a specific woman to bear his children. If he’s more indiscriminate, considering that he has an entire galaxy of women to choose from, the question becomes not “When did Palpatine fuck?” but rather “When did he have time for…

“But if you do make fun of Gwyneth Paltrow, make fun of Goop’s love of moonbeams and vagina eggs. Don’t make fun of Gwyneth Paltrow because she’s a woman.”

“The moment it is realized you are a woman and associated with video games in ANY capacity, you are treated as a threat - through and through.”

Well, c’mon, sure it’s a bad idea.  But if men suffer worse than women, it’s a net positive.

And that’s exactly the point. Notice that she “realizes” that Prohibition for men only would result in women serving as a conduit to supply men’s desire for alcohol. She’s basically looking to have feminism become the new mafia financed by illicit liquor revenue.

“as if she thought...that alcohol was the problem instead of the people drinking it.”

A fanatical obsession with avoiding self-reflection or critical analysis is one of Jezebel’s hallmark traits. At first it’s kind of annoying, but it grows on you after awhile.  It’s kind of charming to see people so utterly devoid of self awareness that they routinely utter the most confoundingly insane bullshit with…

I’m pretty sure it’s not wise to antagonize Joy. She can be kind of...mean.

Yeah, about Carrie Nation...”She became famous for barging into all-male taverns with a hatchet; she would smash the liquor bottles and wooden barrels of beer.”

“This is as good a time as any to remind the audience that if Roe v. Wade were to be thrown out that states could once again restrict abortion access in whatever way they want to.”

Romney didn’t try to run for Senate in the same year as his failed Presidential run. Mostly because he didn’t fail to win his party’s presidential nomination - unlike Beto. Cfer is obviously referring to Beto being a very poor choice to run against Cornyn now. Hell, even if he had focused on just running against…

“In regards to your last comment, sure, men can and do skip out. I think that is something we should work on enforcing better.”

My biggest disappointment with ROS was the complete lack of Phasma. I was really hoping she’d show up and finally do something worthwhile. It’s an awesome character design wasted on a useless nothing of a character. I mean, she has a hard time beating a frickin’ janitor in a one-on-one fight.

Kind of like how we have names like Johnson. Which literally means “son of John”. Because when half the guys in your class are named William it’s kind of handy to be able to tell one William from another.

Kennedy fucked up by utterly failing to understand both the material and the fans that material appealed to. She failed to understand both the material and the fans because she has nothing but naked contempt for them. And that’s not the kind of approach that it likely to produce satisfactory results...unless your goal…

“Yeah, there needs to be more POC throughout the Star Wars universe.”

“Rose wasn’t one of JJ Abrams characters, so he didn’t give a shit.”

“Personally, I think Rose was written as a plot device more than a character. She exists to be Finn’s travel companion/guide through an ultimately pointless diversion that functions mainly as a hamfisted attempt at satirical allegory only to be shoehorned into being his romantic suitor at the end.”

“Instead, they leave any decisions on disciplinary actions to the discretion of the school.”

So, we should stop trying to improve existing technology because that technology is not yet perfect. Yup, that’s about the level of thoughtful, well-reasoned commentary I’ve come to expect form this site.
