Green Book steals the name of a book created by an African American man literally as a survival technique and uses it to tell a story about a white man generously coming to see a black man as his equal and thereby magicking away the problem of centuries of institutional racism.

I believe the butcher of legendary songs you are thinking of in this instance is actually Taylor SwiftlyTiltingAppropriationPlanet. Cyrus however is more than guilty for her share of ummm... Stealing shit and making it look bad.

The butchery of September was Taylor Swift. So far Miley’s stayed the fuck away from R&B staples that evoke folks’ childhoods.

Isn’t Obama speaking more towards pop culture imagery here than specifics? Unlike, say, Bill Cosby, I assume Obama is savvy enough to know there aren’t roving bands of twerking women looking for rich rappers to dance around.

Lot of that in the early aughts.

After Jared Leto won an Academy Award before Claire Danes, I stopped considering it an evaluation of ones acting abilities. 

TELL IT.

MS is very hard to diagnose. There are no conclusive tests, instead it’s a long process of observation and eliminating all other possible diseases. No two MS patients have the same exact symptoms, and there are tons of other diseases with similar symptoms. Also, doctors used to diagnose MS a lot more before, a lot of…

I’m glad Spike reminded everyone of the travesty of 1990. This time is just as bad.

Green Book as Best Picture winner is already aging badly and it hasn’t even been a full 24 hours since it won. It’s…

Damn near made coffee come out of my nose with this.

“I can still see his lips coming straight for my face.”

She's only 46 and already has to use a cane. And her kid is only 7. MS is such a cruel disease

I mean, progress for what?

The comments on this is everything.

Does anyone know why they appeared to be avoiding having Ryan Coogler on camera? Several of the nominees thanked him, and talked directly to him, and no reaction shot. I googled it and it didn’t seem like he was wearing anything controversial on the red carpet...it just seemed like a very deliberate omission?

Her comments in response to the allegations were also awful, can we stop pretending she’s not awful now?

I wasn’t going to vote for Klobuchar in the primaries before anyway, but I don’t think I could honestly elect an official who looked at a salad, didn’t have a utensil, and thought you know what, I’ll just use my comb for this instead of using their goddamn fingers as our hominid ancestors intended.
