Feels like maybe if Disney has the $$$ for all these sequels/prequels/threequels/whateverquels they might also be able to fairly pay their workers, but what do I know
Trying to remember how much I love reading in 2019, please tell me about a book (preferably fiction, doesn’t matter how new/old) that was so good it made you greedy to finish it all at once
Thinking not just of Michael K Williams’ best roles, but of the series finale of “No Reservations” when Bourdain visits him in Flatbush and they can’t go five feet without MKW recognizing someone from the neighborhood with a huge smile. A real loss.
It is BEYOND time for Hollywood to reckon with its own role in perpetuating anti-Asian garbage, especially when it comes to Asian women and sex workers. It's degrading, actively dangerous, and too many have hid behind "it's just a joke!" for way too long.
It was. Incredibly moving, deeply considerate (thousands of people and I didn’t see a SINGLE one without a mask), and righteously furious. Black trans lives matter.
I can't believe I grew up furious that I had to do homework and still became a professional writer, which is essentially just accepting an endless stream of homework forever until you give up or die trying
Like, Beyoncé’s impressive in a million different ways, but the fact that NOTHING about her productions leak even when she TAKES OVER THE LOUVRE is some next level shit

Sure we can’t see anything on

without squinting, but the thing is, it’s DARK at night and the ice dragon show is extremely committed to realism
You could feel the Golden Globes room tense up when Patricia Arquette mentioned Tr*mp threatening Iranian cultural sites via Twitter, but bless her for doing it on a night that otherwise feels determined to avoid it
On a personal note, it meant the world that a sitcom devoted such time and care to a bisexual coming out storyline like literally nothing else on TV before it. Thank you, Brooklyn Nine Nine. You were, as you would say, tight as hell.
I, for one, think it’s very interesting that Esquire is insisting it cares about all teen boys now after trying so recently to kill the Bryan Singer piece
The idea that people have been having "private indoor gatherings" with 10+ people while I've been doing puzzles with my dog like a sucker this whole time makes me very angry :) :) :)
New York is bracing for a new wave of coronavirus infections with renewed restrictions.
— Private indoor gatherings to be capped at 10 people
— Bars and restaurants that serve alcohol must close at 10 pm. Gyms too.
— Restrictions start on Friday
Thank you to the adult woman in midtown rocking a homemade Jonas Brothers crop top for reminding me to check out the new Jonas Brothers album, which I can now confirm absoLUTELY merits making a crop top in its honor
Cable news should ditch the audience and aggressive theatricality EVERY debate for the kind of sober, substantive night Sanders and Biden just got, no matter the circumstances
I used to love “Killing Eve” because it was wild and weird and completely unpredictable. The series finale, most especially That Ending, is as basic as it gets. My (VERY SPOILERY) review:
Something I've been thinking about a lot is how many conservatives have built internet empires by broadcasting fury and disdain, and now there's AOC, building a community by broadcasting calm and compassion. Her Instagram lives are something new.
Honestly, celebrities not going to the Met Gala because they’re unvaccinated will almost definitely be the night’s most fitting homage to the “In America” theme
Would love to meet an actual single person who wasn’t going to watch the Oscars, but now will because Best Editing will be pre-taped to make room for a “we ❤️the movies” montage
My last big feature of
@voxdotcom
is one I’ve been thinking about and working on for months: on TV’s newfound acceptance of bisexual+ characters, and what it means going forward.
Apropos of nothing, can’t imagine why I’m thinking of this now, more than 90% of Game of Thrones was written by white men, while only one (1) woman wrote on more than a single season. Anyway, weird episode, huh
In joint statement, the 7 European countries who launched OneLove campaign say: "We can't put our players in a position where they could face sporting sanctions, including bookings..."
They are Belgium, Netherlands, Switzerland, Germany, Denmark, England & Wales.
If this year’s Grammys proved anything, it’s that the music industry wants a piece of Kesha’s triumph without acknowledging that it‘s already destroyed a piece of Kesha’s heart.
Northeastern has dismissed 11 first-year students after they gathered together inviolation of university andpublic health protocols that prohibit crowded gatherings.
With all due respect to Jamie Lee, anyone voting for her either didn’t watch the movie first or forcibly ignored Stephanie Hsu and neither possibility is right, I’m sorry!

Not just days before, but dropping it at the same time as the review embargo for the Netflix doc lifted. People are searching for info on the Fyre doc and SURPRISE! There's already one online.
A few weeks (a lifetime!) ago, I had a long poolside talk (via Zoom) with Kiersey Clemons and Ebony De La Haye, who fell in love on set when Ebony was Kiersey's stunt double. They're very cool and funny and I love this photo of them so much 🌞
