Yeah, I remember finding a reddit thread where a bunch of posters insisted that the rumors were created by 4chan because it was funny to make rhymes about rape as a nickname for him. That got me to pause for a moment but there’s just too much beyond whispers about Schneider.

Thanks for the correction, I only follow Disney and Nick on the periphery, so I know about a lot of the live action shows but don’t know them well enough to tell them apart until their stars start doing CW dramas or bad Netflix movies. (That said, I remember Sam & Cat debuting to huge ratings, only to fall to rumors…

Yeah, I watched it before knowing anything about the director (that and The Omen II were the first horror movies I remember watching so I guess I had a theme, I also found a hardcover copy of the book my dad had for some reason — he didn’t read scary stories — so that book was as close as I could get to reading some…

I lived in California when she was in the state assembly and learned to respect her as a badass just on how she was willing to stand up to institutions like the banking industry. Then I heard about her history at Jonestown and her fearlessness as a legislator made so much sense.

TBH, I’ve only watched his talk show because my DVR gives me anything with Rachel Maddow.

All I get of what he puts out about himself is that he relishes watching people be terrible to each other and enjoys watching people fall from a pedestal, sometimes he even provided the pedestal. Andy strikes me as a terrible person, if you need an example of gay male misogyny he’s a good one to pick.

For the first couple episodes, the joke is “What if a documentary talked about dick graphitti and high school hookups with the seriousness of Serial?” but (for me anyway) just as that joke started to wear thin it really started to mine the material in other ways and the jokes that felt a little shallow in the first…

Yeah, it’s ridiculous to watch people end up excusing the previous extremist because someone even worse came along, it’s just rewarding Republicans for constantly pushing to Overton Window to the right.

This is something I feel mixed about. The vast majority of trans actresses we see are traditionally hot but when cis actors play trans women, the production feels the need to make them ugly to some degree. I still cringe when I remember that there was a Transamerica DVD with a lenticular cover so you could see…

I don’t doubt a lot of these men who are being revealed as serial predators are very talented but there are a lot of very talented people — take these harassers down and make room for the talented people who can also behave decently around other people.

Yeah, I don’t like it when gossip sites go after a celebrity for “crazy” behavior because in most cases it looks like the results of trauma and I can often see how the site is working to manipulate the reader.

That’s my worry, I really hope his proposed budget includes a lot of money to get good advice from some really sharp lawyers (and that he listens to them). He might be able to do some good just by naming names (if the fallout goes right) but I’d hope he has experts who help him build a case.

Oh. Wow. I knew Shirley Temple was sexually harassed as a child but I didn’t know that’s where the drink came from. I used to love ordering Shirley Temples as a kid, I felt so big ordering a drink that had its own special name and had to be mixed. Plus I liked Shirley Temple movies at that age, The Blue Bird…

Yeah, what’s incredibly disturbing about the Schneider rumors is that he keeps (kept, I’d hope but I’d guess not) making shows. They’re usually hits but if the rumors are true someone (probably several someones considering how long he was making shows for them) at Disney (Disney!) was willingly putting kids under the…

Whenever I see a “Personyoufollow liked” tweet, I click on the little arrow in the upper right and pick “I don’t like this tweet” and, after a few, I stop seeing those liked tweets for a few weeks.

One thing I do, however, when an ad annoys me (usually links to sexist clickbait garbage like someone’s list of pics OINTB stars looking hot IRL) is click on the account and mute them. I can deal with ads, but I get try to block the ones that enrage me.

We’ve got a new specialty bulk candy shop in town and they have a ridiculous variety of gummy bear flavors. I’m keeping my fingers crossed they’re okay. There’s also that brand at target that offers flavors like “Birthday Cake” and “Backyard lemonade” that doesn’t taste very different from other gummy bears.

I think there’s a difference between someone who is stupidly, casually racist and the ones who are proudly ignorant, the ones who will turn it into an identity (anybody who paid for a t-shirt with “deplorable” on it). People can change, Cross’ attack on Yi was a long time ago and my reaction to Tamblin’s “I believe…

I watched her show off and on. I liked her celebrity interviews because they were often chummy, like she would/did hang out with them in her free time. When she had topical guests, however, she came off as insufficiently prepared for the discussion even tho she was engaged in the discussion.

Yeah, there were a few. I think Hal Sparks was one and Aisha Tyler was the final host. The Soup came over a year after Talk Soup wrapped and started as the “What the...? Awards” but that changed withing weeks.
