This is the most absurd take I’ve seen so far so thanks for that. If the likes of Tucker Carlson and Alex Jones (prior to Sandy Hook) can successfully argue that their brand of vitriol is “entertainment” you’d be hard pressed to convince anyone legally that a literal comedian doing a comedy routine is beholden to some…

Yeah, like “don’t let people know that you’re enjoying your life” is weird as hell.

They’re now claiming they can finally start using NFTs for their intended purpose, which is...something something contract or signature authentication or something something I dunno. It’s alluded to in this article. There is apparently some magical valuable “use” for NFTs beyond just overcharging people for a…

I think Paulina Alexis absolutely deserves an Emmy. Her acting is understated but extremely effective, and when she pushes to the front it leaves such an impact.

They didn’t in the headline thankfully, but it was literally the first line of the article. But I do cut them some slack; as others have pointed out , it is the episode title (not that I read the episode titles if I can help it).

I liked the original Zahn trilogy, and even the later Zahn duology, but I gave up on most of the EU after reading one too many clunkers. Hated Courtship and Darksaber especially, and never even got through the Corellian trilogy, as I remember just thinking “PLEASE, SOMETHING HAPPEN”.

I’m surprised honestly that he hasn’t been celebrated for playing on the emotions of white liberals, exploiting them by conjuring tales they can tut-tut about.

Sometimes I think people like Barsanti would be happier just reading a Wikipedia synopsis of the show.

Thank you! People need to stop retconning the EU as being bad from a logical standpoint. A lot of it was just bad from the standpoint of being bad. The books you mentioned in particular are just crappily written. And plenty of others were just plain boring.

I still don’t know that it rises to the level of scandal that sites like this are trying to make it out to be. “Comedian embellishes stories for applause” just doesn’t elicit outrage in me. I don’t need to turn to a comedian’s stories to find examples of the type of bigotry Minhaj talk’s about in his standup…

You got way too mad about the “Far Far Away” thing.

Sovereign citizens already do this. They drive around without license plates and then argue with police when they get pulled over. It doesn’t usually work out well for them.

“Journalists” (or whatever the folks at Jez/Giz/AV Club should be called) really need to stop mining Twitter/X for takes. It’s right wing shitheads all the way down. 

Battle Angel below the Faculty? Craziness.

Just postin spoilers for the ep right in the headline of an article posted at 8 am on the day the show drops.

You know you’re on a roll when the most notorious trolling dipshit in the forum is saying the same things you are.

I thought this was America sir. Freedom of Speech, sir. Get fucked, sir.

Oh, so like when you said people were jumping to conclusion about the victim’s race when the race was actually known? That kind of conjecture?

Each article I see about this is longer and longer and I simply CAN’T bring myself to care when the crux of the story is “Comedian embellishes the stories he tells on stage”.

Which incident? The article explains this guy has done this several times over. It’s a common thing for him. He has at least seven recorded incidents of going apeshit on people, mostly women.
