I'm really grossed out by the "approaching attractive women and asking them esoteric questions under the presumption they're idiots" genre of content that has taken off. It's a really insidious form of misogyny.

Fully grown adults describing their partner as their "girlfriend" or "boyfriend" sounds childish as hell. I've always referred to unmarried people in long-term relationships as partners, it's the appropriate term and less of a mouthful than "significant other".
Jinder Mahal: leave WWE, get fucking shredded, come back and win the WWE Title
Drew McIntyre: leave WWE, get fucking shredded, come back and win the WWE Title
Heath Slater knows what he has to do.
John Cena is the only person to headline WrestleMania, star in a
#1
movie at the box office AND have a Platinum album.
Kind of a crazy accomplishment when you think about it.
@mystmilano
Also, us queers can't keep talking about how important it is to use gender neutral language and to be inclusive, then turn around and berate straight people for doing that very thing.
Stuff like that is why nobody takes us seriously.
CM Punk = Gets fucking embarrassed twice after training the whole time
"He chased his dreams."
Ronda Rousey = Has the best match at WrestleMania and has transitioned almost seamlessly into professional wrestling
"YOU DON'T BELONG HERE!"
I hate wrestling fans sometimes.
@radlcIes
And she was correct for saying this.
You can't arm and train an insurgency to fight against forces you antagonised and then leave them after destroying their country without expecting consequences.
So these were given out for free at Double or Nothing and there was a room for people with sensory overload to calm down and watch the show in.
Shout out to
@AEWrestling
and
@kulturec
for being inclusive and making wrestling truly for everyone.
Bit of clean-up here as this blew up and some people have misunderstood my point.
This is not an attack on Jordan Peele, nor is it a defence or excusing of Woody Allen. It's pointing out the double standard applied by white people to black artists.
Lio Rush: Breaks some locker room etiquette rules and speaks out about frustration with how WWE is structured = Taken off TV
Lars Sullivan: Says numerous racist, misogynistic, homophobic, hateful things = Is pushed with seemingly no repercussions
Huh.
Why can't we just be happy for a good guy having good things happening to him, without talking about him like he's a helpless infant rather than a grown ass man?
@_ElizabethMay
We've normalised broadcasting our lives to the world as our own personal soap opera, and when someone doesn't want to play a character in that soap opera, they're vilified for it.
I'm aware Woody Allen is a creep, and I think he's a truly abhorrent person. Whereas I believe Jordan Peele to be not just one of the most important figures in modern horror, but of cinema in general.

Not only did Stephen Hawking live 50 years passed his life expectancy, he outlived the doctor who told him he wouldn't see 30.
That's how you win at life.

@AdrianXpression
What he said was even worse. He claims to not have black main characters because their skin "doesn't match the aesthetic" of his films.
Which is utterly inexcusable.
Well, this is still getting traffic long after being muted so I'm just gonna dump all my SJW hot takes into a neat little pile:
Trans people exist
White privilege exists
Male privilege exists
Feminism is not male hatred
LGBTQ+ issues should be taught in schools
Triple H called AEW a pissant company live on the Network and nobody gave a shit. Now AEW are throwing some shade WWE's way and suddenly they're the bad guys.
Give me a break. It's wrestling, this is how competition works.

White people suppressed the fact that three black women basically stopped the Moon landing from being a colossal fuck-up for decades so I'd say this is fair game.
"West Side Story flopped because nobody wants remakes" say the people lining up to see the third movie in the second reboot of a series based on a comic book that has been adapted into countless forms of media.
This isn't a case of "separating the art from the artist", what he did stems directly from his prominent position in the acting world. If he chooses to wield his power through the coercion and sexual assault of minors, then he shouldn't be allowed to thrive in that environment.
@VampMartinPGH
That video where he argues that the arts are essential and cites how people turn to poetry when they're bereaved or when they fall in love as an example...my god he put into words something I'd been trying to express for my entire life.
Heath Ledger and Joaquin Phoenix were friends. So, how about we stop with the extreme comparisons of their Joker performances and propping up one to shit on the other? It's disrespectful and tasteless.
Heath would be proud of what his peer has accomplished.
Extreme Rules 2013, The Shield win their first belts in WWE.
Just under five years later and Seth Rollins has made it so that all three of them have completed the Grand Slam.
Amazing.

At his peak, he was probably the most famous person in the world. Jackson's estate generated $825 million dollars in 2016, seven whole years after he died. He was bigger than big. Kanye is not in the same stratosphere.
Gen Z need to understand that physical media is the only way you can actually own a piece of entertainment. If you are using a streaming service, you are leasing it from a tech giant who can take it away from you at any moment.
John Oliver devoted two thirds of his show to calling out Vince McMahon and his treatment of his employees, calling for proper worker benefits and an off-season.
Of course all anyone's focusing on is an ill-advised joke about Roman Reigns. Get some perspective, people.
Imagine training as an actor your whole life and landing a major role in Star Wars.
Now imagine cowardly neck beard cunts abusing you from every direction on social media because they didn't like the character you played.
Kelly Marie Tran did nothing wrong, shame on all of you.
I do find the "Eternals is getting bad reviews because of its diverse cast" argument hilarious when I look at the cast of Dune, one of the most acclaimed blockbusters in years.
If WWE fire Cedric Alexander and Tye Dillinger for rape jokes made in 2012, then I hope they're also gonna remove Mike Tyson from the Hall of Fame.
You know, an actual convicted rapist.
Stan Lee closes his eyes and finally has peace, the Grim Reaper approaches, only he doesn't have his scythe, just an old, worn Spider-Man comic.
"Could you possibly sign this, please? I'm a huge fan."
@dnannann
I really cannot blame modern artists for taking vast sums of money from weirdos.
If someone tells me an oil billionaire wants to buy a game of hangman I played on a napkin for 10 million dollars, I ain't turning that down.
I couldn't tell you anything about the careers of Marc Webb and Jon Watts beyond the fact they were brought in by Sony to steer the ship.
Sam Raimi? Absolute legend, I could write a thesis on him.
Gonna mute this before the stans arrive but just know that I've been a fan of Fraser since before a lot of your were born and am happy to that he's finally getting the credit he deserves, I just don't think it's normal to handle grown adults with kid gloves.

@JohnnyNeff
In fairness, Scream itself was a parody. I always found it odd that the first Scary Movie targeted it when all the tropes it made fun of were already covered in Scream itself.
Brie's botch was bad, but the real story of it is Liv Morgan.
She got knocked out cold and still kicked out to continue the match as planned.
What a pro.

Homer is the most obvious innocent party. His entire motivation for hating Burns is that he can never remember who Homer is. Monty recognises his shooter, saying "Oh, it's you!" before getting shot.

@TylerPHenry
Honestly the way he flips the script on the concept of masculinity - and has done for decades - still impresses me.
In a world where many of the old masters are out of touch with the modern world, he is still very aware and ready to comment on it.
Bad Boys has officially joined Transformers in the "franchise instalment receiving much better reviews after Michael Bay stepped down as director" club
@kaiasher420
This actually made me sad.
NOT for the people being disowned in question, but the fact that they don't realise that the reason they've been disowned is because their views are harmful and regressive. They can't wake up and see the bigger picture. What a depressing thing.
Fun fact: There is a Chris Jericho/Stephanie McMahon romantic fan fiction that is roughly 3.8 million words in length over 503 chapters, and was written over a period of 12 years from 2004 to 2016.
It is more than three times longer than every Harry Potter novel combined.
@mrbrianfirenzi
Lmao by the time he was 25 he had a Master's from Oxford and was already doing comedy on radio and TV. Not to mention as a kid he went to prep school with Tony Blair.
These people just make up sob stories for celebrities and people buy into them.
