I haven’t seen it mentioned in these articles, so I don’t know how well known it is, but, after Heche’s father died of HIV/AIDS in 1983, her mother became a Christian activist, insisting he “died of homosexuality.” She even wrote a memoir about Anne coming out.

Cross-pollination happened in the show often. Rachel dated Joey and Ross. Chandler’s on/off girlfriend Janice slept with Ross. Joey dated a girl named Kathy who eventually changed him out for Chandler. It wasn’t just a POC thing, although if you’re Joey and/or Ross and Gabrielle Union and Aisha Tyler are in your area,…

When are we going to get the Alita sequel?

Mocking the identities, pronouns, and genders of others is exactly what I would expect from the people around here who aren’t remotely as pure and innocent as I am.

If we could have another ABQ universe series/spinoff, and if Robert Forster were alive, I think a series about his character would be rich with potential.

I think The Great Mouse Detective is a better title for the movie it is, fight me. I’ve got absolutely no upper body strength but I think I can take 9 Old Men.

I’m just pointing out that putting a little more thought and effort into how these articles are written can respect the preferred use of the pronouns and be clearly written for the reader. The BBC article does it particularly well.

Looks more like 5 were killed. We don’t need DAs (especially in Texas) using this an opportunity to count the unborn as a full person and let that stand in court. It’s the same legal basis for criminalizing abortion. Losing a woman that wanted to finish her pregnancy is certainly awful, but no reason to count the…

This and a related article on the BBC were the first Ezra Miller stories I’ve read where the awkward use of pronouns didn’t make the text confusing to understand.

lol...whatever... you paranoid MF.

“Itchy and Scratchy”, the cartoon beloved by Bart & Lisa, introduced Poochy, a new character that was hated by all. The show’s producers hastily wrote him out with a title card at the end of the episode that just said “Poochy died on the way back to his home planet”, without any previous mention of him ever having…

Every time I hear someone say, “The Beatles were overrated,” (and I hear that a LOT,) I remember that every song I’ve ever heard from them was released in about a seven-year span. Then I remind myself those people who say that are silly.

What is it about this story that is motivating people to say such probably false shit?

If she wasn’t listed in the original song’s credits as a songwriter, it’s not up to Beyonce to credit her as such. Beyonce gave Kelis the credit that she was legally bound to give: “Performed by.” I love Kelis— I’ve been a huge fan since Caught Out There and continue to support both her music and endeavors as a chef— b…

If her issue was ethics, she wouldn’t have come after Beyonce for this, since she didn’t do anything wrong whatsoever.

It was an easy enough way to shut up this nonsense way Kelis tried to make her self relevant again by cannibalizing Beyonce’s press.

She’d lose that case though, given that the song was fully written long before it was offered to Kelis.  She’s tripping.

Kelis didn’t write the song, and so there was literally no reason to ask her permission to interpolate the melody.

She actually was. In the liner notes of the album, it says something to the affect of, “contains interpolation of “Milkshake ”written by Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo, Performed by Kelis.” Kelis herself is not listed as a songwriter on the original.

Beyoncé was not obligated to contact Kelis because Kelis doesn’t own the publishing . Kelis’s beef is with Pharrell and I think she just lashed out. If she feels The Neptunes stole her credit on “Milkshake” she needs to take them to court and fight for her publishing rights. No one would fault her for that.
