Conventional wisdom in Hollywood (and sports) says The Powers That Be will put up with a lot of misbehavior (and illegality) if you're making them money, which makes the last decade+ of Jared Leto's career so baffling. He's been accumulating allegations AND losing money. Studios cared about NEITHER.

I'm absolutely appalled that Tim Hortons has chosen to partner with the Harry Potter franchise, and enrich JK Rowling, whose unapologetic and public bigotry targets a tiny and incredibly vulnerable queer minority group. You can call Tim Hortons and tell them the same at 1-888-601-1616.

"Debates over World War II became popular at Heritage, with a lot of “rehashing and going through who was the bad guy and who were the good guys,”" Also, sounds like a lot of anti-Semitism at the Heritage Foundation. Maybe Trump's task force on anti-Semitism could look into this!

drunk girl trying to tell her friends that she thinks they are “weekend at Bernie’s” with McConnell, but she has got completely the wrong movie and keeps calling it “doing a Fish Called Wanda” with him and I’m dying

Catching up on The Ghost in the Shell. Did I just rewind and watch the dancing Fuchikoma scene 5 times in a row? Yes, of course.

Christopher Nolan made a whole ass movie about doing Retvrn shit but for basic human decency so in effect reactionaries were correct to worry but for none of the deeply facile reasons they imagined. Total hegemonic normie lib victory there.

And then Shinichiro Watanabe sees Japanese Los Angeles in Blade Runner and thinks “this is dope, I want the world to look like this”

*whispers* you know we can do this cultural debate about art thing all the time, right? Websites and news organizations used to have culture critics on staff whose entire job was writing about books, movies, and TV. People read them and then discussed them. We have the technology to do this again.

"Spider-Man: Brand New Day" proves that there's still plenty of life left in the MCU when it comes to these more ground-level narratives.

Some of the most annoying people on social media are the ones who show a story from The New York Times or the AP or CNN and then say "why isn't the media reporting this?"
