Here’s a thought: if he wargs into Ghost, and then Melisandre resurrects him, would his consciousness get sucked back into his original body, or stay in Ghost? Would he even have a way of knowing that he’s been brought back that way? And if so, does that mean she’d have a zombie Jon on hand—perhaps even a zombie Jon…

Saving the country, furthering the aggression of the colony: is there really a difference?

“Attack On, You Crazy Titan”: one of Pink Floyd’s lesser-known efforts.

Not bloody enough.

Ah-AHHH-Ah!

I dunno. Brave New World just reads too much like “Dystopian First World Problems”.

Or Baltimore.

Or at the very least with a practically-written-for-the-movie musical number:

I prefer to see it more as lifting yourself by the seat of your pants, as demonstrated here:

Judging from the helmets, there should probably be another “S” on that insignia.

I'd say this is obligatory:

That's what I was thinking too, because this does not look like the ideal person to be playing Gaston in anything other than a really bad SNL skit.

All they'd really have to do is change the emphasis of the movie away from Dixie nostalgia and black servant stereotypes and more towards fables of how to survive in a world where everyone is bigger, stronger, meaner, and wants you dead, it could actually work.

The problem with this metaphor is that class and racial privilege are both social constructs, which exist only because our society recognizes them as existing; whereas an inborn capability for magic (if it actually existed) would be an observable scientific fact regardless of whether we believe in it or not. White…

It would probably still be racism, but in this scenario of yours "racism" itself would be neither a bad nor a good thing: it would just be a scientific fact. If some groups of people were genuinely superior to the rest of us, it actually would make sense to put them in charge of everything. At bottom, the main problem…
