Here’s hoping that the cast does as well at voice acting. I know Mae Whitman is a seasoned vet at it, but I’m hoping that Cera and Winstead, who near as I can tell don’t have much extensive experience, can bring some good energy to the role.

I make sims recreations of whatever celebrity/fictional character I have a crush on at the moment, then have them smooch a character that I made look like me. Then I build them a beautiful haunted mansion, have two kids, get bored, and repeat the process.

I love that that also ends with Betty’s secretly-not-brainwashed-but-actually-undercover Mom (who I guess secretely-undercoverly gave away her college fund to a cult) shooting him in the head. This show scoffs at the very notion of rails. 

Now seems like a fun time to rank the MVPs of this show on a performance level.

S+: Veronica. (Camilla Mendez is great, even if she consistently gets the absolute worst plots on this show or potentially any show. Her stupid fucking jewelry store and casino nearly gave me a hernia.) Cheryl. (No notes. Perfect. Chef’s…

As someone thoroughly uninterested in Fall Out Boy, it’s tempting to write something snarky and cliche about their unimpressive lyrics or whatever.

Instead, I’ll say that anyone who would willingly seek out and listen to ai-generated music for pleasure is a bizarre lizard-person who wouldn’t notice a fly landing on…

Stockholm Syndrome isn’t real fam, it was invented by cops to explain why hostages were worried about cops shooting them.

Put more sincerely - Wandavision was clearly made by someone who wanted to say something about grief and forgiveness, and to give Wanda a more complete and three-dimensional character that the movies hadn’t thusfar afforded to her, so much.

MoM, meanwhile, wanted a splatter-horror movie monster who goes crazy from…

I thought this list was ranked for a second, and I wanted to live inside of the mind of whatever beautiful lunatic ranked them that way. Alphabetical definitely makes more sense. 

Well, comparing and contrasting them, I’d say the point of Wandavision would be “to be actually good” instead of dogshit, like MoM. 

After Crunchyroll fucked on of its voice actors over union stuff and HBO Max fucked me personally by throwing the second half of The Nevers into a ravine, I’ve basically reverted to my 2010-era self and started torrenting anything and everything that I’m interested in onto a Plex server.

Gotta love when a largely idiot-proof operation like stochastic terrorism still manages to fall apart in the face of sheer, breathtaking stupidity.

That’s an interesting viewpoint, for sure. I can’t speak to your experiences, obviously - but in my circle of the world, in a pretty small town in flyover country, I can definitely say that South Park was pushing antisemitic talking points into the heads of kids who woudn’t even meet a Jewish person until college.…

Me: “I think mosquitos are worse than wasps.”
You:  “CAN’T BELIEVE THAT THIS GUY IS A WASP STAN. THIS GUY LOVES WASPS. WASPS GOOD MOSQUITOS BAD.”

Haha, I love that you think “these guys are ultimately worse” is the same thing as “she’s good.” And I love that you have to willfully misinterpret the point as “they’re…

Wow, your level of literacy is pretty lacking, huh? Considering your best takeaway from this is that I’m saying “South Park=Bad, Paris Hilton=Good” maybe I’m not the one with a binary thinking problem.

Lol, I ignored you because it’s stupid petulant whataboutism. Did I say Paris Hilton good? No, no I did not. In fact, I said the exact opposite.

But did any of my Jewish friends get called a slur by someone doing a stupid bad Paris Hilton impression? No, no they did not. Can’t say the same for Cartman. 

Since approximately twelve thousand people have posted the same thing, let me be clear: I didn’t say that they are antisemites. I said that they repopularized mainstream antisemitism. The difference being intent. Did they intend to do so? Almost certainly not! But they still made their wacky merchandisable mascot…

I dunno man, I grew up right at the height of her fame and the absolute only people I -ever- heard talk about her were other dudes bashing her or trading a burnt CD of “one night in paris” back and forth. I’ve never met a Paris Hilton stan. I’ve never even met a Paris Hilton fan. Her celebrity seemed entirely centered…

‘Borderline mentally ill’ is how I’d describe a -lot- of the discourse around female celebrities at that time. And also now, probably.

So is it ‘women’ or is it ‘young girls’? 

It’s really, really hard to take Paris Hilton and the cultural response to her (yeah, I get it, she’s unduly famous and wealthy through no merit of her own) and separate it from what the culture surrounding women and girls was at the time. Like . . . holy shit, just as a starting place we were eagerly and voracious…
