What’s frustrating for me is that I think we can have a very interesting and productive discussion about gender equity in sports, but it has to start from a place of acknowledgment that top level male athletes have an insurmountable advantage over top level female athletes. If you acknowledge that reality, you can…

If professional sports were fully gender integrated and merit based, I think men harrassing the women on their team would be the last thing to worry about.

Portman has an off switch where she clearly doesn’t give a shit and bother to act if she thinks she’s better than the movie she’s in. This definitely shows in the Prequels and in her other big franchise turn as Jane Foster in the MCU.

I know and I hate that shit in anything. Let people enjoy things ffs, your taste in entertainment doesn’t make you better than anyone.

and I would say that the romantic rejection should not be seen as a game over or an achievement not , er, achieved.

That’s true, I am not “covered”, but I have 9 of them... and they are freaking expensive, I had several months saving money and designing them with the tattoo artist. If after all of that you still decided to get covered in tattoos is highly unlikely that you will regret them all, you had a lot of chances to stop…

LOL  But wouldn’t that just be a return to what was said before?  At least the X-Men movies used to be considered primarily good, then they went through a phase of think pieces about “Well X-2 isn’t as good as you remember...”

I have a hunch that the 80's will be the last nostalgia episode.

Lists like this make me miss Deadspin because nowhere does it say “...getting run over by a bus”

these lame imposters have nothing on Jet’s 8 corner pizza with turbo crust.

They’re still running ads for their more successful brands like Bud Light. This was just the PR move for the Bud heavy brand to get people talking about it, and it worked better than any recent super bowl commercial has. 

The over the top nonsense in DARE and anti-drug stuff definitely had the opposite of their intended affect on me. I was a pretty logical small child so I noticed there weren’t pushers on my playground trying to get me hooked on smack, and figured that if smoking pot once made you have a deadly accident or made you an…

I appreciate your conviction.

Great...so now that I’m in my mid-30's, Burn the Priest and Prayer for Cleansing are now dadcore.

They’re also in Civil War, which is functionally an Avengers movie.

He’s a little wrong.

I don’t know - it feels like one of the major problems we have (beyond Tech companies only doing the right thing when it’s safe or financially advantageous, even not enforcing their own policies to do so) is that there is a huge epidemic of bad-faith argumentation on the Right that we don’t treat as bad faith.

It’s…

I finally cut out Overwatch a few months back because I finally realized I wasn’t really having much fun anymore. Most of my sessions were just to get weekly loot boxes—going through the motions.

It can be super liberating to cut something out like that, so if Shadowlands gets stale, definitely don’t keep playing just…

rip birch crisper, hes never gonna see another doctor again.

Ugh . Rated 2 out of 5 stars. Would not play again.
