There's some wild stuff in there, like the fire safety protocols and the goony guy who guerilla filmed an action film in the hotel, but it's not worth four hours of your time. But it's helpfully cut up into chapters so you can skip ahead when you feel like you've got your money's worth or if you don't give a poo poo about learning about the plot of a boutique larp boondoggle

Michael Eric Dyson voiced his displeasure with Kendrick Lamar during an interview with Stephen A. Smith on Sunday, in which he reflected on his piece in The Philadelphia Citizen discussing the rapper’s feud with Drake. Dyson wrote in the article that he was unhappy with Lamar questioning Drake’s Blackness and bringing up his mixed-race background on multiple diss tracks. On “Euphoria,” Lamar raps: “I even hate when you say the word ‘n***a'” as well as “we don’t wanna hear you say ‘n***a’ no more.”

“I’m pissed that Drake gets dismissed, off the scene, when he’s been Drake for 15 years and you act like you didn’t know that. Now he’s not really Black?" Dyson argued. "Challenging his racial identity and saying he’s a culture vulture when he’s a Black man? ‘He’s from Canada, he ain’t real!’ Idris Elba is from the UK; people still love him on The Wire! So why is it that being from outside of our nationality raises suspicions about Drake.”

From there, Dyson credited Lamar for being talented but said Drake is underrated. “Kendrick Lamar is a brilliant rapper and a formidable foe. But so is Drake," he said. "And what he’s done to expand the horizon of Hip Hop is underestimated, even artistically […] We have to stop this narrow, punishing, pernicious, limited viewpoint about Blackness.” He went on to compare Drake to former president Barack Obama. Check out the full comments below.

Lamar kicked off the feud with Drake by targeting him on "Like That" back in March. In the months since, the two have fired off several diss tracks at one another.

So are movies but at least Jenny’s funny
Normally I'm not a fan of the genre of YouTube video that is "immensely long video of one dweeb talking about lame poo poo", but she really is funny and makes it entertaining. I don't even like Star Wars, I just think she's good at presenting information and I think the whole hotel failure saga is interesting.

what was the first movie to start the backwards naming convention trend of ":A Star Wars Story" and ":A Mad Max Saga"?

was it Rogue One? or maybe Precious: Based on the Novel "Push" by Sapphire

I did not even consider the old lady goat scene to be a negative thing until someone said it yesterday. They were already supposed to put down all the infected animals?? I mean sure fine some old country grandma is stubborn and doesn't know what the real danger is, that's fine by me. But the boys were doing the right thing anyway

no u dont get it those goats were innocent they didnt deserve to die and just like all babushkas this one only kept them as pets because her ungrateful children got high on communism and abandoned her

to be fair to the adult baby in this scenario, she went specifically for the video review, and makes the money back from ads so it's basically just a business expense for her.


as far as other adult babies, lmaololrofl


I have no opinion of this movie either way yet, but I think I already wished it was not a thing.

Nah the problem is that they “set up” Dany’s ending but it was completely incoherent and…liberal. They start playing ominous music during her scenes and have all the characters turn to the camera and say “Boy she sure is heading down a dark path, I hope she doesn’t go crazy” *wink*. But then the actual things she does are the not only the exact same things that the protagonists have been doing since season 1, they’re outright better. What does she do exactly? Kill the literal child crucifying slavers? Execute an enemy leader who had just committed treason who refuses to surrender? Execute someone for literally trying to assassinate her? Ned Stark beheaded a sobbing teenager in the first episode and was considered “too morally good to survive” by the other characters.

Yea sorry but Dany's heelturn wasn't really set up throughout the series. It makes sense in an abstract way, like I could see GRRM doing it such that it works, but "she got angry sometimes" or "her blood makes her crazy" aren't satisfying justifications for genociding a bunch of civilians who had already surrendered. She didn't even do that when the rebellion in Slaver's Bay nearly killed her and all her friends.

watching some bridgerton for the first time just so i can have some idea what this show is actually like in motion and am a little flabbergasted to learn that its just gossip girl but set in nineteenth century england

theres a lot to unpack here about an infamously trashy premise being elevated to prestige discourse mostly thanks to costume design the implications are disturbing to contemplate i need to watch something more serious to get my mind off this hmmm all our leaders are really into this thing called hamilton i should give it a try

the cutaway gags were simultaneously the best part of the movie and got to be entirely too much by the end. It seemed like maybe they recognized that with the totally superfluous "the water bottle" story that kind of poked fun of them weaving in some new character's plotline into the existing story.

oh well no wonder you big dummy why you would watch the brad pitt version of this movie when you could watch the sonny chiba version instead

every character executes prisoners on that show, there's a pretty big jump between that and spazzing out and burning down your own capital city. otherwise the other characters wouldn't have been so horrified.
