I think you're on the money here. And judging by the guns drawn on Rambeau when she lands outside the forcefield, I wonder if AIM is running the forcefield and Sword is trying to sneak people in under the radar. 

One game is enough for them to sandwich between a few hundred ads.

Getting mauled by a tiger didn't stop them from fucking. 

All this time I thought 'DM' was a sexy 'BM'. 

The New York in SATC never existed in real life, so I doubt it'll be much of an issue for them to dodge aspects of New York in the present. 

It’s almost as if people from marginalized groups are also susceptible to becoming arrogant, entitled, elitist arseholes when they've earned more money than they know how to spend and a higher status than they ever dreamed of having. 

Yeah, she's a dyed-in-the-wool elitist Tory. Her story is a book about a boy who is elevated from cupboard-dweller to world's most powerful person just because of his parentage. He steps into a world of wealth and celebrity and is lauded even though he's mediocre at best at everything he does. Book after book, he…

What’s worse is that some people don’t realize quite how derivative her writing is. The books started out as a cheap rip-off reboot of the Worst Witch series, with similarly fanciful and irreverent world-building. It was only when her publishers saw the dollar signs in the broader universe (during the third book) that…

If actors can’t play autistic characters unless they’re autistic, should we also react just as negatively to writers who write about autistic people but aren’t autistic? From now on, let’s trash any journalist that dares shine a light on autistic people without being autistic themselves.

(Dear Sia: You’re aware neuroatypical people can still dance, right? Your pals, The A.V. Club.)

I get that, but I’d rather live in a world where a good trans/neurodiverse (etc.) actor can get a role as a non-trans/neurodiverse (etc.) character because they’re good at acting and are respected for their craft instead of being pigeon-holed - and vice versa. I know we’re a LONG way away from that and still obsessed…

I am British, I can wholeheartedly confirm this. 

Yeah, I've pretty much stopped using Reddit because of the fervour of Depp fans on there. I just don't get it. 

When they first started showing up during the PS3/Xbox 360 years.

It’s like a drug dealer complaining about all the addicts.

I played a bunch of random indie games from their in-console store. Can't remember their names. Other than that:

I’m reading all these ‘Kamala will be president’ and ‘Biden is a Trojan horse’ comments. I think they mean them to be bad but I’m reading them and thinking ‘fuck yes, the sooner the better’.

They’re better off just wiping the films off the face of the earth and starting afresh. Release a trilogy of Mads Mikkelsen as a tightly-wound slightly deranged teacher at Hogwarts. I’d pay just to see him say ‘Wingardium Levio-sah’.

I’d genuinely forgotten that this franchise existed. I bet Warner Brothers is grateful for the publicity that Johnny’s actions have given them right now.

We'll take Sigourney Weaver instead, thanks.
