That’s rough. I hope you’ve been able to cope with such a bad situation.

They have also been affected negatively. I’m not saying that they deserve all the sympathy and the victim deserves none. Is that what you think?

Game of Thrones has several spinoffs though. Let’s wait and see.

I think Game of Thrones and Lost are in the running for biggest wet blanket.

To the perpetrator’s family and friends.

I think people are giving you a hard time for what is a very humane take. You probably should have prefaced it by saying that you think he’s a scumbag and deserves to go to jail.

Video games definitely give you more bang for your buck. I’ll bet Linklater’s never played more than Pong.

I’m quite enjoying this debate. It’s nice to talk to someone who thinks this deeply about issues like this, especially since you don’t have a committed argument. It’s fun to just take a side and see where you can get with it. I’m not totally convinced of my own side, but it’s a good exercise to look into the issue and…

Where do you think Michaels really started to falter? I’d say firing Sandler, Farley and Norm Macdonald was where he really began his downward spiral. After that he still brought in some good people, but they seemed to succeed in spite of him. He championed Conan O’Brien as the host of Late Nite, and then though…

Leno did two decades.

I disagree that Moonlight’s win was only significant for the on screen mix up. It was a big win for A24, a big win for LGBT representation in the black community, and launched Mahershala Ali’s career to another level. Room similarly gave Brie Larson a bump, and where I live people refer to kidnapping as getting “roomed…

True. I used to know this stuff.

Ladybird was a bad example. But Ex Machina, Uncut Gems, and Talk To Me are very much still in the cultural conversation.

Look at A24. Their movies aren’t the biggest hits, but they have an outsized effect on the culture. How many people actually saw Midsommar or Ladybird? Probably around the same amount that saw Taxi Driver. 

This is definitely the reply of a man who isn’t allowing his feelings to cloud rational thinking. You can tell by the measured, unemotional language. I’m impressed really.

This is very surprising to hear from someone who clearly respects other “people” so much. I’m sorry my concern for the wellbeing of others makes you consider me less than human.

I think anyone who is willing to participate in society by getting a job is entitled to earn a living wage, just as I think that anyone who wants to participate in society by operating a business should be required to provide that living wage to their employees.

So if I do a job I’m not entitled to compensation of any sort? There’s so little to respond to in your comment. I’m not even sure what you’re trying to say.

Yes it should. I think that’s the implication here, but the article is unclear about it.

This is also bad.
