“The entire concept of competitive athletics, especially elite athletics, is that some people are far, far better than average.”

I don’t remember where I read about a proposed solution to have weight/height classes in sports similar to boxing and wrestling, such that it wouldn’t matter what someone’s gender is - if they fit into class A or B or whatever, they’re competing with others with similar physical builds.

It’s incredible how many of you have to resort to lies to bolster yourselves. I don’t care about Johnny Depp. Or Amber Heard, tbf. I care about victims of domestic violence and facts and evidence. Y’all should try that on some time. Much easier than having to make up lies about strangers on the internet. It’s also…

1) False- Johnny’s team submitted audio that had been edited to remove his threats and beatings, as well as manipulating what amber said to make it look worse. The UK judge had the court techs examine them and they were found to have been edited.

They had to edit the audio because the Virginia trial didn’t allow any audio that had voices of people who could not testify.

Wonder how the judge will react to her doing exactly what the jury in her case found to be defamation, again, before the case is even settled. You know, jez there’s a 50/50 chance that Johnny is the the one telling the truth and the dogged holding on to the idea that a woman can’t lie is getting to be misogynistic…

Don’t schools already know the biological sex of their students based on health records? This is just unnecessary and deliberately cruel legislation aimed not just at trans girls but all girls who wish to participate in sports.

Yeah, say what you will about TLJ, but it opened up a whole bunch of new possibilities for where the series could go. But then Abrams threw a shitfit and went “no no no NO NO! Rey is a special destiny baby and she’s gonna go on a magic quest and she’s gonna redeem a Skywalker and she’s gonna fight an Evil Emperor…

The problem with the Emperor still being alive isn’t that it’s a stretch, it’s that it’s dramatically inert. He completely changes the conflict and the motivations of the main characters without actually adding anything meaningful. Even if he made sense, he’d still be a terrible inclusion.

I never thought Crystal Skull’s missteps were updating Indy to a 50s setting, both literally and in terms of the cinematic inspirations (Russians, A-Bombs, Aliens) from the pulp films of that era. In fact, it seems like a great way to modernize the character - insisting that he needs to be hunting Christian artifacts…

You may not know this, but the Clinton’s both ran for President (and one of them even won! Twice!) on the ticket of the “liberal” of the two major parties in the United States. What a wild idea! Now, are they as liberal as you or me? Probably not. But you can’t No True Scotsman them out of our end of the political…

Yeah, I mean the notion of older guys creeping on younger girls is definitely a thing, but I think infantilizing 27 year olds is a bit much. 

We’ve entered the second YAS KWEEN era of Jez.

(funny how her and offset get a pass but chapelle is ‘cancelled’).

And her transphobia!

Don’t forget her incredible accomplishments in the field of drugging, robbing, and assualting unconscious men.

Yeah, Family Guy regularly wrings laughs out of a solid majority of its characters being horrific human beings - the exceptions are the main black character and the only trans character, now that I come to think of it - but it’s not like a South Park situation where more or less the same applies except that the guys…

“Britany Griners wife knows fuck all about Geo Politics”

What a complete catastrophe.

I’ve been intermittently checking out the AV Club’s reviews of these Disney+ Star Wars shows for over two years now (as well as browsing through the comment sections). One thing has remained steady: you whining about basically every single aspect of the show being discussed, acting as though their very existence is a…
