I have to disagree. Very strongly.

Yeah, exactly. Like the early Christian martyrs who died because they refused to recant the weird new religion that was basically the Roman version of Scientology.

This strikes me as the sort of film that would be more befitting of the late Robert Bresson, dare one say?

So this man is called a martyr, but did he actually do, besides die? He didn’t hide any Jews or Roma in his farmhouse. He didn’t kill any SS officers. Why does he get 3 hours of arty cinema?

Is there another actor as consistently good as Thandie Newton who’s been in as few good movies? She’s been in some truly awful movies (The Truth About Charlie, Norbit, 2012), one of the worst Oscar best picture winners (Crash), weak installments of generally good franchises (Mission Impossible 2, Solo) and a bunch of…

it was basically “how dare you deflate our enjoyment of this suffer porn”

That whole thing was one of the stupidest overblown “scandals" ever. 

Yeah seriously, I will vote for him if it’s between him and Trump but fuuuuck he is uninspiring and also I still am not entirely sure what he stands for because he’s super vague and has changed his talking points dramatically since getting into this. 

I’m a gay man, and I would absolutely love to see someone like myself in the Presidency in my lifetime. But please, dear God, don’t let it be this milquetoast, middle of the road, boring, mildly weird white dude.  That’s TOO much like myself.

I’ve been teaching/TA-ing at the college level for the past 6 years, and I’ve received precisely one trigger-warning request (which was reasonable), zero demands to create a safe space, and zero complaints from conservative students who felt that their “free speech” was being stifled. And yes, I did have openly…

Given that this stuff is everywhere, it’s a weak argument—the marketplace of ideas is sorting itself out, just not in the direction Prager and Carolla would like.

I get that we have Nazi sympathizers and actual Nazis running around killing innocent people, as well as staffing the highest levels of our government. But we also know that they are famously thin-skinned and hate being mocked

On the plus side, Scar Jo finally found a role she was born to play.  

the Cardinal, speaking at a press conference, says that “by the grace of God,” most of the heinous abuse committed by priests falls outside the statute of limitations.

There’s a great video on YouTube which analyses K-Pop as a weird funhouse mirror expression of Late Stage Capitalism, as most of the entertainment industry in South Korea is funded and controlled by their tech and electronics companies, which dominate the economy.

Need to add the part about how he was an attorney for the worst organized crime leaders in NYC, which is why Trump cultivated him.
