She shouldn’t leave Twitter because of the backlash, she should leave acting because she sucks.

It’s yet one more company that holds on to log in credentials that can be used as yet another attack vector on other sites. Randomly generated passwords, software tokens (or worse, SMS codes), and so on only do so much.

Edit: replace ‘progressive’ with ‘neo-liberal’. Progressives don’t fetishize minorities. We talk about assisting them thru fair economic practices. That’s one of the reasons idiots kept calling Bernie a racist. This type of behavior is very indicative of ‘liberals’, and is why Republicans use words like ‘virtue…

I don’t particularly remember that but, I also don’t explore the awful depths of the Internet where people would have that view. I’m very sick though of equating every form of prejudice to another when the source of them have nothing in common. Stop comparing racism against black Americans, or Jews historically, or…

“The highest as the lowest form of criticism is a mode of autobiography. Those who find ugly meanings in beautiful things are corrupt without being charming. This is a fault.”

It. Was. Ripley’s. Nightmare.

This. And a lot of people on the left (I consider myself very on the left just fwiw) also hate hate hate that some people on the right think of themselves as intellectuals. It’s far easier for liberals to think of anyone who disagrees with them as Trump-loving troglodytes than people with positions that require actual…

It took me about half a second to think about it and realize there would be pre-accident scenes that require a full able-bodied actor. Talk about creating a controversy out of nothing.

“Now, we always try to take a balanced approach to both sides of the political divide here at The A.V. Club”

men might be horrible and insufficiently woke and stinky

How come I never get recruited into sex cults? This is bullshit.

Fish-nun Party? The Shame of Water.

It’s not even a question of journalistic “integrity”; it’s a question of journalistic competence, and perhaps editorial competence as well. The encounter between Kramer and the unnamed 16-year-old may have been morally repugnant, but it was not, of course, statutory rape (as the article itself makes clear), and it is…

yeah, how silly that he cares about how his art is used without his input or even being politely notified about it beforehand. just another old white asshole, eh, recognitions?

This line of reasoning is nuts. This is a grown woman, completely infantilizing herself and asking you to buy the idea that she has no agency or free will in the presence of someone so powerful. Like, his powerful aura hypnotized her into signing up to do a job for money.

I agree with this. I thought The Force Awakens was the worst of the Star Wars films (worse than the prequels), but The Last Jedi made it a lot better for me. I’m no longer embarrassed to wear the free BB-8 T-shirt I got two years ago.

Yeah, who wants to see a beloved entity be taken over by some corporate overlords? Why that’d be like this here AV Club being purchased by some large conglomerate and shifting its editorial viewpoint to accommodate their new corporate masters.

Wow the guy who tells jokes about current events for a living told a joke about current events and now he’s a “disgusting pig”.

God that first sentence is obnoxious.
