#anti seth rogan

[laf-outloud]

I know it's debatable, but I'd really rather Jared not be on The Boys. It's already not my show anyway, but any time I see Seth Rogen (ex: Critics Choice Awards), it just makes me realize Kripke isn't "our" Kripke any more // Rogen slashing at the CW and cutting people with mean humor. TB going over the top with gratuitous gore // Some people may like it, and I'm glad for them, IG. But it's really not my thing, they're really not my producers any more. I'm in my Soft TV Era, wanting family feels

I don't know that there's anything to debate. Jared fans have never wanted Jared on The Boys and Jared's branding doesn't fit with that show. It's highly unlikely he'll ever be on it.

As for Kripke, I'm pretty sure he's the same as he's always been, he's just no longer tied to broadcast network standards. And Seth Rogan has openly criticized the wildly successful MCU, so I wouldn't take anything he says seriously.

I think a lot of people prefer the relaxed, family-friendly drama. The grittier series may win awards, but it's the broadcast network shows that appeal to the most people, and therefore get the most advertising dollars. And if you're looking for more family feels... I came across this article from December about USA looking to bring back the "Blue Sky" feel to their scripted shows! Here's hoping they succeed because there was a time when I was watching USA practically every night. I'd love to have more shows like those on air.

can someone please legally remove seth rogan as one of the producers for The Boys? if not, I will remove his head from his body

@sethrogen on #marcmaron podcast #marcmaronwtf regarding zionism and israel lies about #palestine . Obvs his afraid comment is a joke about zionist but otherwise 100% truth here. Both were raised #jewish and the convo is actually from august 2020! https://apnews.com/article/israel-ap-top-news-media-middle-east-entertainment-cd8614d0afeee761ae5dd9ba0b518f7e

Marc especially has continued to fight against anti semitism, while wishing for the killing to end in #gaza . Hes a good egg. He saves #cats and seems to be the most reasonable man in #hollywood to me (cuz as Maron correctly points out #judaism does not equate zionism and/or support for israel’s genocide

So, I watched the latest defilement of the TMNT franchise, and I gotta say it's everything I expected.

"April O'Neil" was a random black kid who had no impact on the story, frankly she had so little impact I forgot she was even in the film by the end of it.

"Master" Splinter was just some random, annoying, racist rat with Jewish undertones, not a master ninja turned mutant, the master's pet rat or even a martial arts movie star like in that shallow shit kid show.

Baxter Stockman was supposedly the villain of the story, but instead of being the man under Shredder, or inventor of the Mousser robots he supposedly created the mutagenic ooze, and he dies in the first act.

The fly mutant he usually becomes was now just some random fly that talked like a stereotypical black guy, he was called Superfly.

TCRI didn't make the ooze instead they created anti mutant weapons that turn mutants back into their original animal.

The Turtles are even less impressive than the recent cartoon, they aren't teenagers, they don't know anything about being ninja or warriors, they are just a bunch of annoying tweens who were raised by a racist rat to hate humans.

The identifiable mutants such as Bebop, Rocksteady and Leatherhead are all window dressing with no impact in the story, if you can even call it a story.

The movie ends with a big fight between Superfly and the Turtles, except Superfly was just turned into a chimera Kaiju, because apparently falling into the river around New York with the mutagen won't fuse you wish fish, but with whales, crabs, ostriches and so on, defeating him had no stakes, they just hit him with the anti mutant weapon and all of his parts became their own animals, it felt like the animators and writers just wanted a visually interesting monster rather than a logical one.

In the end the movie had no real connection to the franchise other than the superficial, if you changed the physical appearances of the characters you couldn't even tell it was a TMNT movie that was made, hell, it's hard to tell without any of them changed.

In the end it's another instantly forgettable Seth Rogan flop.

Did you hear that Seth Rogan is apparntely working on a reboot of Darkwing Duck ?

He what.

He WHAT.

BRB, exploding.

Darkwing Duck via fucking Seth Rogen AAAAAAAA

*sits down*

So, like, I'm very protective of the man, as you may know. I hung out with people who knew him and his wife. I've been seeing the subtle antisemitism in criticisms of Mutant Mayhem alongside the anti-black and ableist criticisms.

Seth has Tourette's. He started a foundation because his wife's mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer's.

He gets stoned for his movies. He's raunchy and gross and silly and weird and he's HUMAN. I don't want to ever watch Sausage Party but I applaud him for the audacity.

Anyway. Thank you for this.

Steven Spielberg’s 130-minute “The Fabelmans” test-screened last night in a Nanuet, New York multiplex.

All reactions I’ve gathered have been mostly positive. Michelle Williams being cited as a Best Supporting Actress nominee seems to be a thing among those who attended. Ditto Judd Hirsch in the Supporting Actor category, he has around 10 minutes of screen time, but it’s said to be a “very powerful” role.

The film is an immensely personal, very Jewish-centric, statement from Spielberg about his love for cinema. The film also tackles the anti-semitism he had to face in school. It’s not just kid Spielberg being shown here, but also his mother who ended up manic depressive due to his grandmother dying.

There’s also some interesting commentary on Jewish filmmakers in Hollywood and how non-Jews are portrayed in films. Some have pointed out that, at times, the film drags with Spielberg twee, but that the immensely personal vibe of the film overcomes it.

“The Fabelmans” will have Spielberg recounting his childhood in Arizona, including his sneaking into studio lots to meet his idols (David Lynch will be playing an eye-patched John Ford). Michelle Williams and Paul Dano will be playing Spielberg’s parents. Seth Rogan will play the uncle.

Gate-keeping legal cannabis is systemic racism, and I'll be really surprised and impressed if you can change my mind. P.S. I'm white and racism affects white folks too, gentle reminder, this is why we all need to be on the same page... somehow..?

Hey I'm no Seth Rogan but I'd love to imagine a world where the rest of the world sees the sheer volume of tax dollars being collected from legalised cannabis where it has been legalised, and decides that it would be an amazing way to fix huge deficits in national debts, however that works. I'm no expert, just been reading lots of peer-reviewed studies instead of news articles when I can help it.

I try my best to 'trust the experts' but over and over again they are constantly not listening to my vast experience of actually living with myself for my whole life up to now, or worse, contradicting each other.

I really don't understand how the health professionals keep playing based on the stigma of cannabis and its relationship to racism.

Whenever I ask for a referral to speak to a cannabis doctor - to see if I would even be a suitable candidate based on my historical use of the damn stuff - I get a different answer!

"No, it's too expensive, just get the illegal stuff" - with respect, I'm terrified that if I were to use the illegal stuff I may end up in the prison system of which I am mortally terrified.

"It interacts with your medication and causes paranoia." OKAY I'll deal with the paranoia too then! No medication comes without side effects, please ask anyone AFAB what the side effects of their contraceptive medications are, I'm willing to bet you'd prefer they stay on them if they can, so we don't have to talk about those pesky petty abortion laws - which in case anyone forgot, does not truly stop those who need them from accessing them, it only stops those who NEED them from accessing them SAFELY.

The ones that really grind my gears are the ones who stigmatise cannabis use purely due to the fact that the product they are attempting to trial was obtained illegally.

This unfortunately is also easily transferrable to anti-abortion laws. Keeping something illegal despite uncountable scientific studies identifying its potential across vastly different circumstances, is conservative and naïve in my personal opinion.

Also, my health care treating team has been throwing around terms like bipolar, mania, schizophrenia et al. And I'm here to say that I'd be willing to gamble that I can still function with paranoia, because I've been acting like I'm not seeing subliminal messages that seem targeted directly at me but I am working hard to not let that impact the rest of my life, because I'm also an avid atheist and require proof or at least evidence to support wild claims.

Call it Schrodinger's bluff - I'm either biding my time for the best job in the world with support and mentoring and learning and nnnnnnnngh finally some effing money for my work OR I'm formulating one of the most interesting books ever to be published... one day... Only time (and further research) will tell me which! Or, purque no los dos? SIENTO - purque no los todos. And that is about 50% of the Spanish I remember ^_^;

Oh also I forgot to mention exactly why I think cannabis discrimination is inherently systemic racism. Well that's because Adam already explained it perfectly for Buzzfeed with Adam Ruins Everything. Honestly, I don't think he ruined anything. I can't understand why "learning why/how it works" is possibly ruining it. I desperately want to know how the whole world works! Alas I need to continue practicing moderation and balance. Wish me luck haha

I just heard someone say Ryan Atwood gives them Logan Huntzberger vibes 🤨 I personally feel so offended how dare they compare Logan to Ryan no where near close! Ryan had a background like Jess and has the whole broody thing going, if he's like anyone from Gilmore Girls it would be Jess, and I'm just confused how someone can look at Ryan and be like oh I see Logan Huntzberger I'm so confused by that...but anyways no...I love Ryan and he is no way near close to being like Logan! Ryan was abandoned by his parents just like Jess, had a flaky mom being with different abusive men, dependant on alcohol...etc...Logan would never even know what that's like to go through something like what Ryan and Jess went through, he has never had to worry about where he was going to sleep, or if his mom was gonna up and leave, Logan is nowhere near like Ryan! In fact Logan looks down on people who have less than he does, he's so smarmy! I've always said though Seth and Ryans personalities are like a combo of Jess, you put the two of them together you get Jess Mariano!

[surpriserose]

could you fancast la squadra? ❤️

I forgot about all of ryan Murphys boytoys from American horror story for every other fancast so you get them im sorry la squadra looks like this now

Risotto omg okay so he has to be wes bently (rightmost guy) who tried his hardest to be fucked up and broody in ahs and it didnt work so hes the perfect risotto because hes gonna try that again 🥰🥰🥰 actually i think halfway through they replace him with jared leto because hes legit unhiged and no one even comments

Prosciutto okay im gonna make this super painful immediately....because they genderswap prosciutto so they can make cishet rispro canon so Cameron diaz prosciutto they still get to be old (ppl will call them a milf online) but at the cost of EVERYTHING ELSE

Melone is also genderswapped to help them sidestep the whole stand thing or just keep the terrible but actually non canon implications or just keep them and make it a predatory lesbian thing idk im really feeling that for fancasts today. Expect a lot of terrible jokes either way. Also melone has to be a lady so their whole thing can be motherhood uwu....lets go with billie lourd since im on an American horror story kick

Ghiaccio can be Christian bale actually you know how he was like im channeling the weird tom cruise interviews for american psycho? Its that again but specifically the high energy jumping on the couches interviews also he method acts by taking ice baths before every scene gzgahavsBssk theres your one good actor

Illuso has to be bitchy and la squadras gay best friend despite sorlato being there and actually being canon still so im going Zachary quinto he played bitchy gay for American horror story he can do it again and illuso deserves bitching eyebrows. Also hes so raunchy in this version hes like all sex jokes and gay jokes

Formaggio is seth rogan because haha stoner jokes and thats it i dont think he really gets to do anything but make stoner jokes and make everyone deal with seth rogans weird laugh

Pesci is finn wittrock (middle guy in the picture) because they are going for sexy pesci and hes got an awful spikey mohawk instead of pineapple hair because people wont let pesci just be pesci. Hes still got the self esteem issues but theyve been amplified so he can be the biggest uwu softboy...actually finn wittrock could probably pull off uwu boy to killer pretty well.....hmmm pesci becomes a fan favorite because of this and sexy pesci fanart skyrockets

Sorbet is andrew Garfield because tumblr has told me hes the cishet guy who just loves playing bi characters so hes a god or whatever ANYWAYS sorbet is now cracking one liners in all of his 10 lines because im so sorry they are keeping sorlatos deaths which is why they get to stay gay gotta kill them off

Gelato is evan peters because i mean hes got the hair and we are going for hot young marketable twinks sorbet and gelato. Evan peters is trying his best to be so so cunty but its not working because evan peters always looks like hes 12 to me im sorry hes trying his best but its not working but everyone online is like omg what a bad boy 😳

Other notes

Bad wigs for everyone but especially melone illuso and ghiaccio

Everyone is so so out of character theyve been boiled down to one trait harder than ever before but its not even the traits you expect this time

.........risotto is wearing so much leather

I think they get the suicide squad marketing tactics like its a "dark comedy" starring a bunch of koOkY anti heroes also james Gunn is directing....

[whokenobi]

"To have dinner is an entire other thing and it absolutely crosses a line. It’s not okay." Pamela Anderson took a picture with him at their son's event last fall. She hangs out with him, his sons hang out with him, but Sebastian Stan having dinner with him is fucking crossing a line?! What is wrong with you? Yes, you're an anti, period. I'm not up his ass. I'm just not fucking insane.

See my other response about Pamela. Seb needs to learn to grow a fucking pair and actually figure out where his morals are. “He’s a kind person”, he’s a fucking push over. He knowingly surrounds himself with garbage ass people repeatedly, it’s a pattern at this point. Fucking call me an anti, I don’t give a fuck. He’s been hot garbage lately and I’m actually sick of pretending that it’s not the case. I’m also sick of people finding ANY reason to excuse the bullshit because you are so blinded you can’t see how fucking garbage he’s been. This project was a mistake. If he wanted to actually care, he should have taken the same stance Seth Rogan has and fully enthusiastically admitted how garbage the person he was portraying is. But no, instead he’s talked about how much he admires Tommy and how amazing their love story is… it’s gross.

WIG REVIEW: PAM AND TOMMY

Ok so I just finished this whole series and I sort of feel like a bad feminist for watching it at all since Pamela Anderson did not cosign this. HOWEVER this show could not be more pro-Pam!! But what about the wigs? Let’s discuss on an episode by episode basis.

EPISODE 1

We begin with one of the worst people in the 90s or any other time: JAY LENO. Or I should say, some random actor playing Jay Leno. He asks Pam Anderson, played breathlessly by Lily James, how it feels to have a sex tape. Already I wanna vom. This is going to be a show.

The episode flashes back to the origin of said tape and the carpenter who stole it: SETH ROGAN. IN JORTS!! This show is so so very mid-90s. But Seth’s character, Rand, is firmly stuck in the 80s as shown by his very late 80s mullet. This wig ain’t bad! It avoids the issue with most bad guy wigs - the back taper - by being a total party in the back.

Enter party pooper: Tommy Lee. This show is very anti-Tommy and I love it for that! Tommy Lee very much sucks in life and on this show. As played by Winter Soldier Sebastian Stan, I have to say: he looks exactly like Tommy. This is NOT a wig - he underwent a dyejob and keratin treatment for this lewk - and the result is pretty perfect. Way to commit to hair for your craft!

We don’t get much of Pam in this episode but the few scenes she is in I have to say - this wig is pretty great!! Lily James underwent a pretty intense makeover to look like Pam and she honestly very looks like her! 

LOOK AT THIS WIG! The part, seams, texture, roots - everything is working here. It looks just as platinum bombshell as Pam did circa 1995. 

Most of this episode is devoted to Rand NOT being paid by Tommy Lee because, well, Tommy is an asshole??? Rand decides to get his back payments by stealing a super unguarded safe in Tommy and Pam’s garage, where Tommy, a professional drummer, plays drums. This was honestly the biggest question I had in this episode: WHY DOES TOMMY LEE PLAY DRUMS IN THE GARAGE LIKE A SUBURBAN TEENAGER? WOULDN’T HE HAVE HIS OWN HOME STUDIO??? Anyway, Rand hatches a plan that legit involves buying a fake fur rug from Pier 1 (PEAK 90s!) and using it to pretend to be a giant fluffy dog for the security guards. IT IS SO STUPID BUT STUPIDER STILL: IT WORKS!!!

Rand gets all the loot from the safe including, yes, the sex tape (which he was not banking on) as well as lots of guns (UGH) and money. The plot of this show is basically: don’t screw over a carpenter because he will enact revenge. AND DID WE LEARN NOTHING FROM OVERBOARD?!?! THIS IS THE SAME PLOT! 

EPISODE 2

Rand takes the tape to friend and porn impresario “Uncle Milty” as played by Nick Offerman IN THIS DAMN WIG. Yes, this is a complete mess but I suppose it is on brand for a mid-90s porn kingpin. I really appreciate the difference in texture from the greased back top to the frizzed out ends. 

Most of this episode centers on the further flashback origin story of Pam and Tommy’s romance which begins at an LA club. PAM’S 90s UPDO IS EVERYTHING! LOOK AT THESE BANGS!! Look at these tendrils! YES!

CAN I GO TO THE CLUB WITH 90s PAM ANDERSON?!?! This episode includes Pam’s posse of gal pals who are never explained or seen again in this series. Their identities will remain a mystery for the ages! Anyway, apparently Pam and Tommy met when Pam bought the whole club shots which included Tommy and he responded by walking up to her and LICKING HER FACE. TRUE LOVE!!!

He then basically stalks her to Mexico where he distracts her from her friends and career and this relationship is really starting out great.

This show never shies away from what an absolute dick Tommy is but will likely be remembered best for the scene in which HE ACTUALLY HAS A CONVERSATION WITH HIS OWN ANIMATRONIC DICK. Yes, you read that correctly. Apparently Tommy is ruled by his own penis (makes sense!) and it is telling him to avoid Pam but he isn’t listening. He wants Pam! Also this show is actually maybe bonkers. 

4 days after meeting, Pam and Tommy get married on a Mexican beach. Yes, this really happened! Yes, Tommy’s hair was actually much shorter in real life but Pam’s beached out blonde is every Baywatch reality. 

But on the plane back from Mexico, these two lovebirds realize that they actually barely know each other and might not be compatible. Pam doesn’t like horror movies like Tommy! OOPS! I love Pam’s undercover wig here. She’s hiding it but she still used her curing iron! 

EPISODE 3

MORE FLASHBACKS!! As Rand and Miltie try to find a way to sell this sex tape, we get some background on how Rand even had connections to the porn industry. Turns out his ex wife - as played by that bitch from OITNB - in the most shoutrageously frizzed out late 80s wigs ever - is a porn star and so was he? Kinda? Anyway, she has now left him for a woman and basically treats him like her super and his new mission is to find her a replacement part for her toilet.

It is whilst researching toilet parts that he discovers this new weird thing called THE INTERNET and a sex crime scheme is born! Of course, as with any startup, they’d need some cash on hand. Enter: Andrew FRIGGIN Dice Clay as some sort of mobster or whatever who will fully bankroll this mess and what could go wrong?

Meanwhile, Pam and Tommy are adjusting to married life and Pam is fighting for Baywatch monologues. There’s talking in Baywatch? Anyway, this updo is fighting to be a serious actor! The parting of the bangs is really everything. Also apparently Baywatch producers are scumbags! This show is fairly educational. 

EPISODE 4 

Welp here we are. Rand and Miltie actually did it - they figured out how to harness the internets to sell VHS copies of Pam and Tommy’s stolen sex tape. SEX CRIMES!!! It’s all very awful as is the fact that Pam discovers the existence of the tape on the Baywatch set whilst crew members casually view it. She brings it to Tommy who is living under the misbelief that Motley Crue is still a viable band. 

Pam is sick to her stomach, also because she is pregnant (mazel!) Having dealt with scumbags exploiting her for her entire life, this is nothing new but Tommy is just PISSED. Pam’s sad deflated wig really says it all. 

One of my favorite parts of this show is how little people knew how to use the internet in the mid 90s. Especially celebrities! Pam and Tommy go undercover to find their sextape online at the....the public library! WILD! You know that they had to use Pam’s library card - there is no way in hell Tommy Lee has a library card. ANYWAY, Pam’s under hoodie wig is still amazing.

Tommy of course DOES NOT GET IT as in all things and quickly forms a list of people who might have been mad at him enough to steal and broadcast a sex tape and it basically includes ALL OF HOLLYWOOD. I have to hand it to Pam’s wig for staying calm under the pressure of it all and managing very good updos! 

However, the pressure finally gets too much and ends in a miscarriage which is apparently true but the timeline was rearranged. It’s all heartbreaking. I love that they show a deglammed Pam for this - and her disheveled hair works on its own sad level. Of course, the paparazzi still harass them at the worst possible time and Pam loses it with the help of THE CLUB (the 90s anti-car theft device!) on a pap’s windshield and I SUPPORT YOU, PAM!

EPISODE 5

It’s hard to know exactly how true any of this is or what facts have been enhanced but I firmly believe that Pamela Anderson meditates as much as this show would have us believe. Girlfriend has a lot going on! Namaste away!

I am in love with Pam’s lady publicist, Gail,  who has the unfortunate duty of dealing with all this sex tape nonsense when she just signed on to promote Pam’s new movie, Barb Wire. Gail is way better at the internet than Pam or Tommy and shows Pam the full extent of internet searches for the sex tape. Pam and her glorious updo are horrified.

Even more horrifying? Penthouse publisher Bob Guccione somehow gets ahold of the tape. HE IS PLAYED BY REX MANNING HISSELF, MAXWELL CAUFIELD!! THIS IS PEAK MID90S! SAY NO MORE, MON AMOUR! This wig is sleazeball perfection! I don’t know who this lady is supposed to be but I want her dress! 

Bob wants to publish stills from the sex tape in Penthouse (rival of Playboy where Pam has modeled many times). Tommy immediately lawyers up about it and all the men in the room say THEY MUST SUE! Pam (correctly!) says that if they do, it will only draw more attention to the tape. Everyone ignores Pam and sues.

And the tape gets so much attention that Jay Leno starts mentioning it in his monologue. THE VERY WORST TIMELINE. However, Pam’s beach waves have never looked better! 

EPISODE 6

THIS EPISODE. UGH. The Penthouse lawsuit results in a deposition JUST for Pam which is perhaps the most awful slut-shaming episode of an TV show I’ve ever seen. SCUMBAGS ALL AROUND! However, Pam’s professional updo with CRISS CROSS PART is everything.

We get a flashback to the late 80s where apparently Pam was discovered via a Canadian sports jumbotron?! I have to say that the late 80s wigs (OITNB chick included) are not as fabulous as the mid-90s ones and this dude wig is probably the worst of the series. Also Pam definitely had a type: JERKS!

I think the main issue with these late 80s is the large gap between the bangs and the hair flip - this is DEP gone bad! However, this episode does portray Playboy as a very respectful place to work (!) you can even bring your mom to the Playboy mansion!! However, back at Pam’s deposition, I have never felt so very nauseated for anyone. JUSTICE FOR PAM. Also of course Penthouse won. UGH. 

EPISODE 7

It’s time for Pam’s big movie, BARB WIRE, to come out! I have never seen this movie and did not realize Pam played a character named Barb. BARB Wire. Wow. Anyway, I’m pretty sure Pam’s hair has never looked this full and fabulous in real life but given how awful the last episode was - good for her! 

Meanwhile, everything is VERY BAD FOR RAND. As in Miltie has absconded with all their money to Amsterdam, Andrew Dice Clay is now making Rand repay their debt with his own violent debt enforcement, and a bunch of randos are trying to sell bootleg sextapes outside Tower Records. Rand’s solution is to bring his higher quality VHS tapes to try to sell inside and it does not go well. It goes even worse when he tells his ex about the tape and compares it to porn and she delivers the point of this whole show: Porn is consensual. This sex tape was stolen and is a sex crime against Pam and Tommy. Rand doesn’t get it. MEN!

Jay Leno doesn’t get it either, obviously. We come back full circle to the most awful and awkward interview in the world, where Jay tries to lightheartedly ask Pam about the tape and she gives him a dose of sad reality. These wigs are all fabulous but let us all remember: JAY LENO IS THE ABSOLUTE WORST.

Well no: actually Tommy Lee is the worst. Always. It’s Pam’s big Barb Wire premiere and she is heaven in pleather while Tommy is a walking punchline as always. THIS OUTFIT. It is sort of sweet that he is so supportive of Pam’s acting career but it is absolutely heartbreaking when Pam sees that she, in fact, is the punchline. 

EPISODE 8

Oh Pammy! We made it to the last episode! Pam’s acting career is a trainwreck due to the sextape and Barb Wire being a bomb. APPARENTLY SHE AUDITIONED FOR BOTH LA CONFIDENTIAL AND AUSTIN POWERS?! And although she is finally pregnant (MAZEL!) her attitude is as defeated as her hair. I do love that they show Pam’s un hot curled hair when she is feeling down. UGH PAM.

Also down? MOTLEY CRUE! Still attempting to be a viable band, they make an appearance at Tower Records and I have to say - compared to Sebastian Stan’s real hair, these wigs are pretty lousy. However, it is these bandmembers who explain to Tommy that this sextape actually had no negative effect on him at all - it just showed the world what they always thought of him: he’s a dick with a big dick. 

A lifeline is delivered to Pam and Tommy via an internet porn king played by that kid from White Lotus who offers to buy the rights to the tape from them and shut down all bootlegs of it; thus putting an end to this sex crime nightmare. Pam and her sensible updo just want to sign and end this thing. Tommy of course is against it because his main enemy is: rational thought. The couple runs away from the paps to....Las Vegas?! Where Tommy abandons his very pregnant wife to....go to the hotel bar and brag about his big dick. THIS ASSHOLE. 

In the end, the reunite and sign over the tape rights. Rand sells the master beta to the White Lotus kid and gives it to the OITNB chick and also never faces any criminal charges for any of this. Pam has a water birth and becomes a mom! And gets her Tommy tattoo replaced with a Mommy one. The show ends with an epilogue explaining how the couple broke up: with Pam having to call the cops on Tommy’s physically abusive ass. WHAT AN ASS. #TEAMPAMFOREVER. The tone of this show was really all over the place but I will say that it rightly showed who the real victims and villains were in all this. And: the wigs were pretty good. 

VERDICT: WURQS

“Live action” lion king live blogging review

John Oliver’s Zazu is a gift

They SLAUGHTERED be prepared what even was that barely a song crap

THATS NOT EVEN HOW The animals MOVE

The lack of emotion on the lions faces is distracting to the point of it being almost funny

They did the hyenas dirty

If they really wanted to prove what they could do with cgi animation they should of chosen a new original story

James earl Jones’ delivery was better in the original

Mufasas death scene was barely even emotional bc of how utterly emotionless simbas face it was completely void of emotion they could have at least tried

I really like Seth rogan as pumba

I like that they let him say farted but that pumba wanted to be stopped

Its nice that there’s other in the jungle that makes more sense

Donald glover is also a good simba

BEYONCÉ

but this whole movie is unnecessary

I like shenzi

I’m glad they expanded on the lionesses at pride rock under scar dynamic and nala leaving

THE CUDDLE PUDDLE

The journey of simbas fur tuft to rafiki like it makes sense but also I saw animated giraffe shit

“Sweet caress of twilight” in the middle of the day

Soooo much sun for the love AT NIGHT

BEYONCÉ

they gave nala long fluttery eyelashes omg

Voices yelling with emotion with nothing on the face really just falls flat

Musically the could have done so much more the had BEYONCÉ for god sake

Be Our Guest 😂 but the hula was better

Body positivity anti-bully pumba 👏👏👏

The fight scene did not need to be this long

Again I really like shenzi

My expectations were low but DAMN this is bad

4/10

To everyone automatically shitting on Seth Rogan for his TMNT movie:

He's Jewish, he has Tourette's Syndrome, he owns a cannabis brand, he and his wife support neurological studies for various nervous system disorders, he's actually kind of anxious, and every time I hear someone call him cringe I think about how he and I kind of have the same kind of dry Xennial humor.

Just because I hate Sausage Party doesn't mean I don't enjoy Rogan's work in general. I like him! Yes, he's kind of off kilter. He's raunchy and kind of hipstery, but hey look I was raised by actual hippies and I was always raunchy. What exactly do you mean by raunchy anyway? Because it can mean suggestive and it can mean slovenly.

And yes, I have already seen the subtle anti-Semitic comments. Lay off Seth until the movie comes out. I know you won't, but I can ask nicely.

Broad City

things you didn’t know or might’ve missed(part 1):

season 1 ep 1: the first mention of “the Abbi who stole a car”. we later hear about her while her and Illana are on molly

in the beginning of the series Danielle is a lot more lively and we get a glimpse at the low key freak she is

s1ep1 is the start of Abbi’s crazy medical lies. she can never tell a simple white lie, she goes full extreme.

i still have yet to research whether or not “What a Wonderful World” is a slave song.

WE NEVER SEE MELODY!

Lincoln brings up such a great point- WHO TEACHES THE BUCKET DRUMMERS?!

they never succeed in meeting Lil Wayne. such a bummer.

s1ep2 Cheese’s swinging earlobes. so gross. then she goes on to pop a pill and down it with some wine. classy.

s1ep2 the first look at Illana’s bestiality fetish. she says she’d have sex with a dog that her and Abbi see in the park because she’s attracted to his huge balls.

s1ep2 when Illana goes to mail her parents her taxes, she actually throws the envelope in the trash can instead of the mailbox

s1ep3 is the start of Abbi’s lie about training Shania Twain (love her)

i can’t make out what Illana’s tattoo is of!

s1ep3 Trey gives Abbi a treatment for her “sickness” called “Cellular Confusion”:

- run a quick 5k (who tf is running a QUICK 5k?!)

- take an 8 minute nap

- wake up, do a shot of Echinacea (whatever that is)

- then jump right into an ice bath(ouch)

- immediately after that, suck on some ice chips (i actually love ice chips! probably because i have low iron)

- then urinate as hard and as fast as you can

- eat a full onion

Garol eating yogurt... i could be sick just thinking about it.

The running gag of “you should label every side” first starts with Bevers and Abbi’s cheese. Then again with Illana and Linda’s gum in a jar for a “Guess How Many” Contest.

s1ep3 Bever’s ACTUALLY refers to himself as Abbi’s roommates boyfriend.

Bed Bath & Beyond coupons DONT EXPIRE!

s1ep5 we first meet Illana’s old roommate, Parker. it’s weird that Illana remembers her name because in a later season we see that when they were roommates, Parker was participating in a loft meeting with 2 other roommates and they are discussing their issues with Illana. One of the issues being that Illana refers to ALL of the roommates as Madison.

s1ep5 we are introduced to Abbi’s classic BLUE DRESS!

s1ep5 we are introduced to Illana’s clip in hair extension/ braid. we see it again in ep10 for Abbi’s birthday.

wikihow how to properly remove a condom if it happens to get stuck inside of you. it’s educational but, disturbing.

Garol (the disgusting yogurt eating woman) actually pops up a couple of times. Once at a sex shop where Ilana is shopping and Garol is checking out a monster cock dildo.

Abbi has these crazy handshakes with with the employees at BB&B and her dad while Ilana always stands there confused.

S2E1 Seth Rogan is the guest star as “Male Stacy” who passes out during sex with Abbi due to heat exhaustion. Making Abbi technically a rapist.

imagine being stupid enough to think joe rogan is alt right

Imagine being stupid enough to not acknowledge that Joe Rogan regularly platforms conspiracy theorists, alt-righters, and neo-Nazis, is very good friends with Alex Jones, has said the n-word on-air on multiple occasions, compared black people to apes, is a birther, has said incredibly sexist things about women, is transphobic, genuinely fucking thinks the Clinton campaign killed Seth Rich, and has repeatedly voiced 9/11 and Sandy Hook conspiracy theories. 

Imagine thinking that as a Democratic candidate, that’s a person whose endorsement you want to both celebrate and elevate with an official campaign video and then justify by saying that we have to “build a big tent.”

As Chris Geidner said yesterday: “Everyone on the left has correctly expended so much energy over the past years condemning Trump for his association with and support from white supremacists, but when it’s Sanders and an anti-trans, anti-gay bigot it’s “he’s a part of our politics, what can we do?” What bullshit.”

Sha’Carri Richardson Suspended from Olympics

LOS ANGELES (OnlineColumnist.com), July 3, 2021.--Winning the women’s Olympic Trials in the 100 meters June 19 at Hayward Field in Eugene Oregon, it didn’t take long for a United States Anti-doping Agency [USADA] blood test to disqualify 21-year-old Sha’Carri Richardson due to the presence of Tetrahydrocannabinol in her blood, the active ingredient in medical or recreational cannabis AKA marijuana.  Considered one of the premier events in the Summer Olympics, the 100-meter champion claims the title of the world’s fastest women.  On the men’s side, the winner claims the title of world’s fastest human.  Poised to possibly win a gold medal in Toyko, Sha’Carri was disqualified under a 30-day suspension that will prevent her from competing at the 100-meters in Tokyo.  Because of scheduling differences with the women’s 4x100 relay, Richardson will be permitted to compete in Toyko 30-days after her June 28 suspension.    

         USADA subscribes to rules governed by the international body, the World Anti-Doping Agency [WADA], concerned about keeping performance enhancing drugs out of amateur athletic competitions like the Olympic games or Olympic trials. Reactions to Sha’Carri’s suspension drew condemnations from all over the sports word prompting White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki to say the White House had no plans to intervene on Sha’Carri’s behalf.  But fair is fair.  Cannabis, like alcohol, is not a performance-enhancing drug, in fact, just the opposite, likely to detract from any performance.  Richardson told the press she used some weed in Oregon, where it’s legal for recreational use, to help her cope with the loss of her biological mother. ”It sent me into a state of emotional panic,” Sha’Carri said.  “I didn’t know how to control my emotions or deal with my emotions during that time.”  

           But whether Sha’Carri chose to use recreational weed or not, it’s a banned substance at WADA and USADA, because its on a banned list of substances that doesn’t include alcohol.  Hollywood cctor Seth Rogan said the USADA suspension was racist because it discriminates against African Americans, where cannabis isn’t seen as different from alcohol.  “I greatly apologize if I let you guys down, and I did,” Richardson said, devastated by the reality that she’s been disqualified by USA Track & Field, giving her first place finish to the second place, bailing out the fourth place finisher Jenna Prandini, now part of the U.S. women’s Olympic 100-meters team. Due to the automatic 30-day suspension, Richardson is eligible for reinstatements July 30, in time to run the 4x100m relay but not the 100m dash.  Unless there’s some intervention, Sha’Carri won’t run in the glamorous 100 meters.       

        Richardson’s suspension for using a substance the equivalent of alcohol is long overdue when it comes to revising the WADA and USADA rules.  Whether an obsolete rule exists or not, the overwhelming consensus among amateur and professional athletes is that cannabis should not be grounds for suspension from any sport.  While Psaki said Biden has no intent to intervene for Sha-Carri, there’s no reason he can’t call close U.S. ally Polish President Andrzej Duda to talk with 36-year-old former Polish Olympian Witol Banka, formerly Minister of Tourism, now President of WADA.  Calling Duda could potentially change the obsolete rule when it applies to cannabis, making Sha-Carri’s suspension a moot point.  As long a cannabis was legal in Oregon, there’s no reason Banka can’t change the rule related to cannabis as banned substance for the purposes of WADA.     

        Richardson made an honest admission, mea culpa and plea after the USADA lowered the boom on her for an obsolete WADA rule.  “I just say, don’t judge me and I am human—I’m you.  I just happen to run a little faster,” asking WADA and the USADA to intervene to allow her to run in the 100 meters.  “They don’t necessarily understand and I wouldn’t ever call they haters.”  Sha-Carri could be excluded for the 4x100m relay because technically the U.S. Olympic Committee must take six athletes, but give the spots to the top four finishers in the Olympic Trials.  Technically, Richardson could still be excluded from participation, because he first-place finish was already vacated by U.S. Track and Field, the national governing body.  “While we are heartbroken, the USOPC is steadfast in its commitment to clean competition and it support the anti-doping code,” said tthe USOPC.   

USOPC must clean up its language and accept that alcohol or cannabis are not performance enhancing drugs, and, under no one’s definition can fit the mission of WADA or USADA to keep athletes on a level playing field.  If athletes throw back some cold ones, that doesn’t affect their performance in amateur athletic competition any more that using medical or recreational cannabis.  “A positive test for any banned substance comes with consequences and we are working with the USATF to determine the appropriate next steps.  We are dedicated to providing Sha’Carri the support services she needs during this difficult time.”  USATF knows that the ban against cannabis is obsolete, having nothing to do with doping any more than alcohol.  If the USTAF wants to support Sha-Carri they will immediately work with WADA to reverse the obsolete ban on cannabis in amateur athletes.
