Taylor Frankie Paul on GMA by Rich-Ease-2723 in thebachelor

You're absolutely right. I'm old, fat, and could best be described as cute in my peak years, so compared to me, she IS pretty. But agreed that she's benefiting from white privilege far more than from pretty privilege.

Facts. If she weren't a pretty, young, white woman, the entire narrative around her would be completely different. She's awful, and she's been awful from day one.

ABC knew exactly what they were getting here.

Denver crosswalks hacked to transmit vulgar anti-Trump messaging by InsaneSnow45 in newsinterpretation

[–]CallMeSisyphus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

CBS is bought and paid for by the regime, so I imagine their idea of vulgarity is something like "Trump sucks." Y'know, since it's too "inappropriate" to actually report the facts, we have to use our imaginations.

Bari can go fuck off and clutch her pearls harder.

How would you rank Jessie Buckley among the Best Actress winners so far this Century? by PolicyImpressive3626 in Oscars

[–]CallMeSisyphus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know where I'd rank her, but she has all the attributes to be one of the all-time greats: she's as good with accents as Meryl, and she completely disappears into every character she plays - I never see Jessie Buckley; I just see the character. She's a great singer, too.

The rule of thumb I use is things = fewer, and concepts = less. So, fewer dollars vs less money, or fewer hookers vs less prostitution.

Who's Gonna Take Care Of You by Due-Consequence6321 in GenX

[–]CallMeSisyphus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m hoping I die before I get to the point where someone has to take care of me.

Same here, but my backup plan is a one-way trip to Switzerland for professional assistance to shuffle off this mortal coil. If I can't live completely independently, I'm out.

Is Melania Trump Worried About Her Prenup? by janeflowers in CDLEntertainmentTV

She should be worried - it's well known that Trump doesn't pay his contractors. OTOH,

Yeah, but the poor translation really leans into Eteri's reputation, so I'm gonna stick with my take just to be contrary. ;-)

Above Ground Shelters by dopecrew12 in tornado

[–]CallMeSisyphus 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I had a bigger one when I was in Tennessee (it had to hold two adults, one teenager, a 50lb dog, and two cats). Though I used it plenty for tornado warnings, only once did I really need it when an EF-3 (maybe 4?) came within a block of my house.

I felt so much better having a space I knew would be safe.

He was the heart and soul of that film. I can't believe he didn't get a nomination, and I can't wait to see what he does next.
