OK, once and for all, the devil is just much much fucking better than Jimmy, right?

This show is like Jelle’s Marble Runs, except if you edited those to the point that you had no clue what the fuck was going on, and if the announcer constantly reminded you how stupid and silly it is to watch marbles.

I think the problem is they fundamentally don’t know if the show is a comedy or if it’s a competition, so they try to split the difference and wreck both. It’s like the first attempt at Iron Chef America, the godawful nightmare with William Shatner.

Every time I see “Bongino” I pronounce it “Boingo” in my head.  That’s okay, right?

But that’s the one website (which, as a halfhearted brony, I can attest that I’d never heard of before reading this article) which appears to be very 4-chan adjacent.  It’s not really a new thing that 4-chan’s “no SJW censure!!!” idiocy is toxic.

Serious question: Are a lot of Survivor fans psychopaths? Because WOW do a lot of them spend a whole lot of time talking about Strategy and The Game and absolutely no time talking about, like, human feelings.

I dunno how representative I am, but as a fan of the show (like, to the extent that I have a favorite episode) I have never, ever heard of Derpibooru. Like, it’s a sequence of letters I’d never seen before this article. It is enraging that a charming, good-hearted cartoon about ponies has white nationalist fans, but…

I guess I could be called a brony (although just to the extent that I watched the show; no conventions or anything) but the community always seemed pretty typical to me.  But like, the people I know who are also fans are mostly grown women, so I dunno if that’s typical.  I think there’s the fandom and then there’s the…

They’re actually not, which has always been one of the cool things about the show: the characters are explicitly grown-ups. One is basically a grad student. They all have jobs (some even have day jobs because the thing they like to do doesn’t make money).

I have to admit it: I am a brony. No conventions or anything, but I watched the show across most of its seasons. I’m also a feminist, and it was absolutely perplexing to me how you can like it and not be a feminist. It’s explicitly about how platonic relationships between women are important and good, and how things…

“(One scene, involving Hastings being forced to basically beg for money in Manhattan, far from the town he’s hoping to run, includes a pan across a table offering a spread of Halal, Paleo, and Kosher options.)“

> No they aren’t. The former is a good thing, the latter is cynically trying to use doing a good thing to latch on to a currently ‘hot’ issue for your own self-interest.

I’m a little confused by the tone of this article. The author appears absolutely terrified to give O’Brien moral credit for anything, to the point of portraying a professional comedian’s obvious jokes as some kind of scorched-earth scathing.

As a registered hypnotist, I am absolutely amazed at Scott Adams and his amazing persuasive abilities.  He’s single-handedly persuaded thousands of people that all hypnotists are asshole creeps!

But those are the same thing, in this case. It is very fucked up to think that if she’d just not tried to support the protesters (which I think is a good thing to do in a vacuum), nothing would have happened to her. If she was apathetic about racism, things would be cool.

Wait.  Wait wait. She was a nightmare to everyone and super-racist.... and the thing that turns everyone against her is HER SAYING SOMETHING NICE THAT WASN’T RACIST?

oh shit did Donald Trump commit suicide?

The depressing part is, no one who harassed her into doing this will get a wake-up-call from her suicide, because they already have effective cognitive strategies for staving off guilt.  If anything, the bigger reason to be guilty will just make them even MORE hateful, because they’ll need to amplify their bullshit…

I realized halfway through the movie that they were NOT going to tie the talking-heads documentary part back in to the film-within-a-film. It was just to establish the fiction it was a really a lost movie from 1979.

I read “Geoff Pierson” as “Geoff Peterson” and was about to watch the movie solely for the robot skeleton.
