All that - and Julie Andrews going into her lower register.

“...only herself to blame.”

“If literally one thing goes wrong—if the team needs to call for help or a tow truck, if they get stopped, if they crash—literally anything goes wrong here and these guys would be pulling resources from an otherwise already overloaded system, not to mention potentially increasing the risk of contracting coronavirus by…

nothing more than a collection of tweets

Oh God, I hate this one. First of all King is right if you don’t like it don’t take part. The protesters of this book are honestly Kissin cousins of those loons against Drag Queen Story Time in libraries. If you don’t want your kids to be read to by a Drag Queen don’t bring them.

As far as I can tell, higher education came about as a way for the upper classes to get their adolescent sons out of the house and away from the scullery maids.

For the record, I do think the USSF should pay both teams equally. They have enough money to do so and it doesn’t seem like the revenue distribution is as gendered as, say, the NBA versus the WNBA.

We should have a quota system where every year, they look at the exact racial breakdown of society, and then we can have inspectors to go in the boardrooms and writer’s rooms for any show that goes over the airwaves, or cable, or streaming, to inspect their plots and characters, to make sure they are meeting the…

Off the top of my head, in a case like this, I would probably acknowledge that Weinstein was a shitty and manipulative person who used his position to get what he wanted, including sometimes sex.

Amy Adams was robbed of an Oscar for that role that year. She even sang the goddamn song on the show, and looked stunning while doing it.

Did they though? They made a decision, which I’ll warrant will pay off, to fix the surface details of a crappy film thus giving it unearned cultural cache and warm-feeling from fans who feel listened to. Seems like a fairly mercantile decision that would not have been…

I really want to give James Marsden a big hug, because with the exception of Westworld, he’s made some truly baffling career decisions for an actor who’s always so likeable.

Yes, because we’ve seen so well how #NotAllMen defenses are received.

Haven’t watched the video yet, but if it was the mid-90s, this would be a big name blockbuster. It’s really only because we’re so used to seeing all the movies that are aimed either at children or 18-24-year-olds being labeled as such that it’s not.

I’m also familiar with Greek mythology. No link needed.

It’s the natural endpoint of this obsessive bugbear that progressives have with representative casting.  Whitewashing is one thing, but they’ve conflated that with thinking every actor needs to bring an authentic experience to their role, or it’s literally an offense to society.

Batwoman (the best of the bunch by a wide margin)

Wasn’t this an article here, like, a week ago? This same story?

SO hoping Zoey gets regular coverage when it runs in February. I haven’t had this much desire to rewind and rewatch a sequence since Crazy Ex ended it’s run.

Why not, 99% of that room is complicit.
