For fuck’s sake. Asking questions about whether or not a creative work was a good idea to make is not the same as demanding it be censored.

Are we that fragile now?

I don’t think this movie is going to drive people to kill any more than I think that playing, say, Call of Duty will. However, I’m not interested in watching it because, if I want to see something about an angry white man who decides to kill people because they won’t recognize how supposedly amazing he is, I can just…

What drives me bonkers is that the same people yelling about not judging Joker before seeing it are the same folks I’m certain judged Captain Marvel, Black Panther, and Ghostbusters (2016) before those films were released.

hyper-vigilant is the new code for “scared of black people”

Anyone else notice how she appears to have gone blonde since the shooting? Am I a cynic for suspecting she wants to look whiter for the court?

Oh she was intoxicated.

To serve and protect...one's own feng shui.

Here’s the part the really messed with my brain:
The D.A. isn’t even trying to claim any sort of negligent acts were done on her behalf, which could still come out with a verdict of not guilty of murder, just accidental manslaughter and she wouldn’t have to serve jail time.

You wouldn’t think but I listened to a story about how a SF meetup for food at a pop up had a long line and two fat cops never asked questions of why or what people lining up where doing and just grabbed their shotguns and walked next to the people in the line going towards the front while cocking their shotgun and a…

Not only a red door mat, but her next thought must’ve been, as she opened the door “someone broke in and switched out my couch and kitchen table and pictures and paintings...” and then she came upon the dangerous black man trying to redecorate. Shooting the perp in defense of her khaki decor was really the only…

“Don’t break into someone’s house and then shoot him” doesn’t seem like an especially impossible standard.

Totally not the same thing. Violent video games are about a bunch of different subjects that just happen to have violence. Joker is about exactly the kind of entitled white man who goes around mass shooting people because he didn’t get his way and his feewings got hurt.

He seriously never thought of it? It seems like half of America already did. Hell, I heard the Department of Defense issued a warning about it. A guy I’m acquainted with posted this to our Discord server last week. He works at the local Air Force base:

I mean, you could do that, but it wouldn’t blow up on Instagram. 

The one thing that Shaun King is good at is self promotion. I was ambivalent about him early on, because he was using that platform to bring attention to people that needed it.

He said he considers claims that he is stealing money from anyone to be “the dumbest...least well-thought-out accusation.”

For the next 48 hours, someone else is running this account. That person wants you to click through and read this twitter thread.

Yeah, this Aqualad is Garth, who later adopts the name Tempest and was Aqualad when Dick Grayson was Robin, he was a founding member of the Teen Titans. Aqualad from Young Justice is Jackson Hyde, and is the current Aqualad, the Robin in his version of the Teen Titans is Tim Drake, and his father is Black Manta.

Of course. Because public domain doesn’t cost money.
