Sorry, not to be an asshole, how do you remake Whitney Houston's performance in this?
I'm not necessarily opposed to "reimaginings", but sometimes, with some originals, ya gotta leave it alone.
I'm lucky to have grown up in an era of movies where there was so much originality and verve in big studio projects. I feel like younger folks are getting the short end of the stick with attempts at microwaving the movies we had.
My mother's side is from rural Kentucky. My father's side is from rural Oklahoma and Texas. I grew up in Central Texas trailer parks way out in the sticks.
And let me tell you: this comes across as incredibly condescending toward rural folks. Please don't parrot this nonsense.
Do rural families of all income levels have to get creative with sickness? Sure, maybe a cold medicine like Robitussin is used outside of its direct intent. But reasonable adults out in the country aren't taking animal drugs as a preventative measure. Please stop this.
You know what I'm really tired of? Journalists who didn't grow up in conservative areas holding people in those areas to an insulting level of adult awareness and then having the gall to pontificate about coastal elitism. Please shut the fuck up. I beg you.
A dozen House Republicans decided to write an open letter to Yahoo CEO Marissa Meyer + other tech leaders regarding their concerns about tech. It was published Friday.
The problem, of course, is that Marissa Meyer hasn’t been at Yahoo since 2017.
That is so wild to me. Do you know how many people looked at that behind the scenes and gave it a thumbs up?
This news bit about Matt Damon only recently deciding to stop saying "faggot" after his daughter wrote him a "treatise" on it just makes me sad. Geez.
This is the kind of thing forces me to wonder how much homophobic and transphobic shit "progressive" white cis straight men say behind our backs, and that just really sucks.
"I'm glad he changed and that his daughter helped him change"
Yeah, I get the sentiment, but this is super 101 stuff. This is like 10+ years ago kinda stuff. And he knows better.
The Woodstock '99 documentary on HBO is very good and very sad.
Unexpectedly thoughtful. Like really drilled down into it on a philosophical level. Impressive.
Also, in an unintentionally funny scene, Moby is ranting because he's upset that his name isn't on the official Woodstock signage and he starts pointing out bands he's never heard with this incredulous tone. What a dick.
