There’s a point in any hobby where you stop describing things you like as good, and start describing them as interesting.

If it wasn't so pathetic, I'd laugh at The AVClub trying to blame Ellie Kemper for systematic racism but not mentioning Tim League’s reported - and recent - failures to deal with sexual harassment and racial profiling across his various businesses.

Oh man, you didn’t check in to see how this insane stretch of a nothing-burger was getting roasted over at The Root? Cause it’s getting no traction there, and it feels like their readership should know.

Yeah, I don’t think the film was any great shakes, and Phillips is an ass, but it did obviously resonate and not in the way the smug shitlibs thought it would. It’s not the only, best or most eloquent film about the alienation of shit jobs and failing systems, but it is a film about shit jobs and failing systems that

So wearing a sweatshirt, being assertive, and liking sports makes a woman gay?

Right. I for one am not excited about the “Back To the Future” prequel in which we learn that Biff was actually a performance artist who, through the medium of bullying, was working to deconstruct the patriarchy.

Yeah, they didn’t just “threw money”.
They hired him for future work on a giant NDA condition and under copyright claim threats, and the complete removal of all his work from his youtube channel.

Them throwing money at him was also what I hoped. Them hiring him (and all other solid content creators), making them remove

They were people who purchased their land, had it removed from their ownership through legal chicanery decades ago without their knowledge as a result of their ethnicity, and were never asked or directed to pay rent to anyone and are now suddenly being ordered off this land they thought they owned.  Cut the bullshit

Israel has no right to the land in which it’s built.

Maybe Israel shouldn’t have evicted Palestinian families from their homes in occupied East Jerusalem in clear violation of international law. When Israel has removed all legal recourse for the Palestinians to defend themselves what else can they do? The point of the rockets is to be a deterrent, but in order for a

It’s good to know that the Scientologists haven’t completely taken over Hollywood yet and the old Jewish guard can still swing their dicks around to bring an errant actor into line.

It’s no more provocative than the average movie released every year. But because this woman is making this content herself, it somehow gets read entirely differently by the same audience that loves watching Megan Fox bend over a car. This same audience doesn’t mind that Megan Fox cuts a fat check from it and her

Do women hanging out at the beach make a living being paid to be there?

Perfect Pussy was not really in my musical wheelhouse, and I never put it on on purpose, but every time that record comes on on shuffle, I can’t stop listening to it.

But ContraPoints invoked that phrase in the face of a wave of mass harassments directed towards her by people demanding she be canceled for not being woke enough on certain topics.  Have you watched her video on the topic?

Hey.

You should have stuck with the timeless, “If Chess gets to be considered a sport....”

Move a few pieces on a board (Chess). Also considered a sport. There’s different categories of sports and not all rely on physical attribute.

However I also do think that there is an extremely unhealthy culture developing in left spaces that is about feeling morally virtuous and defeating your enemies, rather then true solidarity and human understanding. Fine and dandy when directed at bigots, but way too easily redirected over small slights and human

a public announcement that should, if nothing else, throw some much-needed attention toward that often misunderstood condition.”
