Fresh Prince, the show famous for being able to make emotional or political statements in a way that wasn't that hamfisted and actually something that could reach mass audiences, deffo needs Carlton to get hooked on drugs because his company went under.

If you guys want some really good Dan Nainan content & have some free time this podcast is a pretty comprehensive summary & also good because you hear him explaining multiple times why the r/l joke is extremely good & real.

That applies to a lot of media, though. Think about how many high schoolers think American Beauty is a deep movie.

Did *anyone* think Newsroom was good? Like I know libs fawn over the West Wing but does anyone even give a poo poo about the Newsroom anymore except to poo poo on it?

Quentin Tarantino said

quote:

Now, the HBO show I loved was Aaron Sorkin’s The Newsroom. That was the only show that I literally watched three times. I would watch it at seven o’clock on Sunday, when the new one would come on. Then after it was over, I’d watch it all over again. Then I would usually end up watching it once during the week, just so I could listen to the dialogue one more time.

Ya Nintendo ftw but also like they fired a woman because gamergate harassers found out she was moonlighting under a different name 2 pay off student loans & leaked it to em. They a company like any other.

That article doesn't mention that the moonlighting she was doing was porn, and the "controversial thesis" she wrote was literally in defense of child porn.

I mean, yeah, that was only discovered because the Gamergate started digging into her past because of some wierd controversy about the translation of Fire Emblem, but that doesn't mean that Nintendo wasn't completely right to not want her associated with their products.
The thesis is extremely stupid & i think if that was their justification id feel more comfortable with it but Nintendo specifically stated
""Alison Rapp was terminated due to violation of an internal company policy involving holding a second job in conflict with Nintendo's corporate culture,"
& when it comes 2 "the moonlighting she was doing was porn" I don't think anything about being a sex worker changes the context of the situation

There's nothing wrong with being a sex worker but unfortunately that's not a widely held position. I really think it's not unreasonable in the current cultural climate for a children's toy company to decide that they don't want their literal spokesperson to be a sex worker.

If you criticism of Nintendo is that they aren't doing enough to normalize sex work, I think that's a little silly.

Ya man, when im sayin any company is obv goin to prioritize corporate interests over those of the worker & this is an example of that what i rly mean is Nintendo should be a sex work advocacy group...reading comprehension ftw

The coolest part about that post is when he hints that maybe it's just that there's a division of Nintendo dedicated to trawling Backpage for possible copyright infringement
