I would also say that if you count Varys, you’re actually undermining the argument that GOT relegates its gays to the sidelines, as he’s the only one of the shifty schemers that is doing it for a more noble purpose. Varys might be the only person in GOT that is able to put his ego aside and see things as they really…

The reviews of the Fabelmans have been good, but the trailer seems strangely inert to me. Slate’s review kind of said the same thing—for a semi-autobiographical movie it seemed strangely distanced to them. I’ll probably see it when my friend gets his “For your consideration” screeners, but I’m not going to rush out to…

Early in the pandemic this was especially true when everyone was wearing cloth masks, which don’t protect the wearer much. But wearing an N95 or KN95 will provide good protection for the wearer, even in situations where others around them are unmasked:

It was a personal observation of one person’s reality (“my experience is that people are treating it like the flu”). I assumed you were calling the people treating it like the flu ableist, but if you’re saying the person making a subjective observation of their personal reality is holding an ableist view, man IDK.

An observation of reality can’t be “ableist” jesus christ.

...yeah. While I certainly understand where you’re coming from, it’s not okay to hit other people in anger like that.

People should do what’s in their best interest when it doesn’t harm anyone. Seems like Bill Hader knows what’s best for Bill Hader, good for him.

Zendaya’ed for YOUR sins!

“I believe you know my father, young Sheldon senior.”

Did I miss a Spider-Man comic book where Mary Jane “MJ” Watson slept with a teenager?   Or are you just dumb?

I thought that ‘While he might not care about the African slave trade beyond scoring political points’ was a pretty clear acknowledgement of what you pointed out.

Actually it sounds like a movie written by people who want to show how cool the women warriors of a historical culture were while whistling past the fact that a big part of their coolness involved conquering neighboring tribes and selling their enemies into slavery. Trying to many any connection to modern society is a…

I’m not sure the author knew she was white, to be honest

Uh, Zendaya’s mom is white. Here she is with both her parents.

Why is this a story? How was he supposed to know she was her mother? I did a short stint working security for events like this a long time ago and it’s not like they provide the guards with a list of names + photos of people associated with whatever celebrities are there. The goal is to keep the wrong people out and…

I left this article still not knowing what Zendayas mom looks like, very similar to security and 99.99% of the population. Unless, I’m wrong, but I don’t think she’s a famous mom...

Europeans called Africa the “dark continent” because it was uncharted by their geographers’ knowledge, and dangerous to explore due to pathogens for which they had no immunity. It had nothing to do with a perceived lack of color in dress, decor, or aesthetics in its inhabitants’ cultures (so far as I know, at least).

Yeah right until the next cycle of songs, the one where we see the real Demi.

Never go Full Lovato.
