This is a stupid, dumb article, and the author should be ashamed of themselves. If the progressive movement wants credibility and legs, it’s got to get over this bullshit.

Heh - somewhere, there’s a fairly big sector of a Venn diagram of people who won’t be vaccinated against Covid, but will take a random pill found on the bathroom floor in a club.

Gah - you’re right. I got in a muddle with my English, rather than my memory. I meant transgender rather than transvestite, and then thought you were saying she was tv. So, yes, a tv would not (in theory) care what the moon thought of them, but a tg would.

I’m glad this has happened. It puts the appropriate people and their fucked-up priorities on the spot.

My recollection was that she was transitioning - otherwise, why would she care?

Ah, St Vincent will do - no articles on Dylan this month? The fucker’s 80 and recently released one his best albums ever (imho).

Uh, Bob Dylan?

Well, I don’t think the Ramones would disagree (and, no, it didn’t afaik).

The Sandman straddled some interesting progressive lines.

I’m still setting fire to dumpsters over the omission of this from Spiderverse.

This and Rollerball (the original) are two films which have a lot more arena-action in my memory than they actually contain.

Ultron really does get better on subsequent viewings. You’re ready for the fuzziness and missteps, and more receptive to its themes. I mean, it’s still not great, but it’s no Thor: Dark World.

Well, the lycanthrope is clearly the cub reporter.

Only in so much as you can reinvent the wheel, but you can’t make it square, so there’s only so much deviation you can do.

Things that suck but didn’t used to:

A mildly annoying 1st world problem - I can live with it (plus an email filter could send the £0.00 emails to the bin).

This is the one with Smello-Vision, isn’t it? I’m sure it had Smello-Vision - mostly urine, burnt rubber, and ionised air iirc.

I don’t really watch anime, and when I see a trailer like this, I remember why. It’s not that I’m prudish - I’m just not a hebephile - and the whole My Sexy Little Pony vibe is just weird.

Okay, I’ll bite...

Indeed. I mean, why?
