Oh good, I was starting to worry that this shit would just be sexist rather than sexist and anti-semitic.

Guess a movie doesn’t begin at conception either.
Silicon Valley has been one of my favorite shows over its run, but sadly the news that Wetterlund’s experience was not an enjoyable one comes as no surprise. T.J. Miller is a well-documented turd of a human being, and I can totally see his meeker/more passive (at least publicly) male co-stars not calling him out or…
I really didn’t love this last season. The only hilarious bit was the thinly veiled shade at Marrisa Mayer (former yahoo CEO), with Laurie Bream’s (spoiler) pregnancy/delivery in the first episode and her insistence that she needed almost zero time off. (Note: not making fun of women with ambition, but rather, the…
About the time Miller got fired from SV, a couple of the male actors did interviews (one was definitely Middleditch) talking about what a nightmare he was to work with and how happy they were he was gone. Many Miller stans showed up in these very comments to assure us emphatically and condescendingly that all the…
I like the show, and the most recent season was actually better than the previous two, but jesus christ do they struggle to get good female characters on the show. Carla was one of the more promising ones and they lost her. Damn shame.
I expect asshole behavior from TJ Miller, and deep doucheyness from Middledick, but…
What a damn shame, because she was a breath of fresh air for the show and exactly what it needed. I still watch, and it’s still pretty funny, but also clearly spinning its wheels creatively.
But then it wouldn’t be magic! Just a non-magical elastic waist.
I can’t believe Dirt Bag is converging with my other favorite news source, Democracy Now! AND about the local hometown hero to boot. I feel like my worlds are colliding 😍😍
That this idiot must have seen the word collusion written correctly hundreds of times in the last 18 months and he still got it wrong-in Sharpie-tells you everything you need to know about him.
Love the 25 point font. On top of all his other failings, he’s too vain to admit he needs glasses. Many people say he has great vision. More and more all the time. The best seeing!
Collusion implies some kind of agreed upon partnership. Yesterday Trump showed the whole world that he’s Putin’s lackey and nothing close to an equal partner. Therefore....no collusion! End the witch hunt! #MAGAski
In this case, Trump said there was no “colusion” which is, technically, correct since “colusion” is not an actual word. MAGA?
Okay, but drilling progressive values down to being against exclusion is really missing the boat here. Progressive values are about dismantling oppressive power structures and ending the financial, social, and institutional discrimination and inequality faced by women, racialized people, LGBTQ+ people, etc. etc.
You can play Motown all you like and enjoy it all you like. Where it gets sticky is when “blue eyed soul” is better paid, played more, and gets prestige that Black artists don’t.
It’s not really just cultural exchange, though, when the same thing that gets a Black woman fired gets Kim pictures in a magazine and contributes to her multi-million dollar fortune.
Wait, wait...while I agree with the point of the original commenter, in what world has anyone suggested that you playing Temptations songs on your guitar is appropriation??
Listening to music is not cultural appropriation. Stealing the music then acting like you created it is.
Belly dancing is pretty Caucasian. Mostly Turkish and Lebanese and Spain. It would seem uninformed to complain about someone doing something that was common in the multicultural Roman Empire. I wouldn’t worry about it.
