Hmm think you mean you hope she comes to share your opinions on what constitutes empowerment and black feminism.

“Rank debauchery”.

lol, bless your heart.

“we don’t have to subject ourselves to folks who don’t treat us the way we deserve to be treated. We can leave any spaces and places that don’t currently serve us without apology and return when and if we decide to.”

I encourage everyone to take a break from Twitter.

R Kelly is a perfect example of how art can't be separated from the artist. How can you ethically consume art without supporting the person who made it? How do you ignore the reflection of the artist's expression? You have to be heartless and willfully blind. It defeats the whole purpose of art.

He’s addressed that too, admitting that many of those jokes were written at a time he was coming off some bad relationship experiences (e.g. the “half” jokes). But he was unsparing of the way men act in relationships as well, so generally I think he was going for what he thought would make people laugh as opposed to a…

It truly is a dark day for the fandom. The real fans know that Star Wars is originally supposed to be about Marketable Robot.

It’s maybe a very light spoiler—so caution if you haven’t seen ep. 8—but season 2 seems like it’s been set up to still feature Baby Yoda as a main cast member, which was a huuuuuge relief for me. Pedro Pascal is great as Mando, and the style, special effects and world building of this show are fantastic, but Baby Yoda…

Great first season. Certainly the best Star Wars of the year, at least.

Just wait until you see his new show Familiar-ish about a TV showrunner who only has one good idea.

AND the literal blink and you miss it LGBT representation of some officer kissing a woman in the background of a scene? Fuuuuuck you for trying to say that you did anything. It’s just as shitty as Beaitu and the Beast. Maybe not AS self-congratulatory as the Russo brother self-insert As a nameless gay man sad about…

Honestly if they just stuck with the idea that her parents were nobodies it would have made it so much better. 

Bringing back Palpatine from the dead makes Anakin’s sacrifice to kill him moot. As reverent and beholden to the past mythology JJ is, this one change shows he has no idea what his fanfiction desires do to the previous text. He’s a hack, the perfect distillation of Hollywood nepotism rewarding mediocrity.

Rey kissing…

That changing of Rey’s parentage really frustrated me to no end, especially because it really made me appreciate the TLJ’s approach. There’s something awesome about this concept that someone will be there to rise up, no matter what their background, only to ignore it because it has to be about destinies and…

I am a non-critic regular person who was around when the original trilogy was in theaters and who enjoyed TLJ. I remember young Luke Skywalker being extremely whiny, and it makes complete sense that he’d turn into a disgruntled old hermit. It confuses me that more people don’t see it that way.

They goddamn better. 

Support thread for folks who found both Force Awakens and TLJ boring and realized you’ll never love Star Wars as much as you did as a child and that’s ok

“It’s OK” seems to be the consensus.

I sure this review will be received reasonably and people, regardless of whether or not they agree with it, will debate politely. It’s a good thing Star Wars has never caused people to behave in a disagreeable fashion.
