The general rule for slurs is that unless you are part of the particular group the slur is targeting, don't use them.
Ex: black people and the n word, LGBTQ+ men and the f word, LGBTQ+ women and the d word.

The final episode of s1 is one of the best episodes of any comedy I've ever seen
And let's be honest a comedy starting off decent is a miracle since it takes time for a lot of acclaimed comedies like Community or Happy Endings before they get good.

So what other media have you digested this week
Almost Famous- the sexual politics of the movie aged poorly, but I liked it. I always love a good "crowd cheers, crowd cheers basically whimpers, crowd cheers again" scene.
Assassin's Creed Origins- took me 10 months, but I finished it. It's one of the stronger entries but it still feels a bit rough around the edges in regards to controls. Mission design is better with none of that "follow and listen" bullshit they had in the older games.
Star is Born- man, it's really obvious which segments of the movie Lady Gaga suggested

so what other media have you digested?
-Marvel's Spider-Man- what a game. Sure the side content was a bit lacking in terms of quality, but its just too damn fun swinging around and sticking guys to walls.
Vertigo's Border Town- probably the first Vertigo comic in awhile that has me interested. It feels like something that could come out if Karen Berger was still running the show
Cosmic Ghost Rider- this is one of the stupidest things marvel has published and i'm loving every moment of it.

So what other media have you digested this week?
Blood Meridian- Two chapters in and I can tell this book will be burned into my brain by the time I reach the ending.
Marvel's Spider-Man- funny how having a different sense of motion can make a genre that's getting increasingly stagnant feel fresh.
The Good Place- Simone is the cutest character ever created

Telefone is among my favorite projects of all time and so far Room 25 seems to lives up to its predecessors quality.
We'll see if I feel the same about R25 in a year.

I honestly forgot all about the details in regards to the allegations and the wording in the article gave me the impression Ryan wasn't 100% sure who made them and were just theorizing who made them.
My bad.
maybe don't mention potential victims names unless they basically go "its me NAME, BLANKBLANK assaulted me", especially when the accused is famous

Telefone was basically a perfect debut.
2016 was one of the greatest years for music, and I believe that the project was the best of the year

I only knew them beforehand because I have a Gov Ball 2017 poster in my room with their name on it with a slightly more piggish Trump image representing them.
A rapist bigot being their icon is pretty fitting.

Having listened to the new Eminem album entirely, I can say its ok, which for an album this late in his career is a miracle, but he really needs to evolve. I don't know about everyone else, but last thing I need to hear is a straight boy saying f@ggot, especially when its directed at a real queer person.

Not my all time favorite, but this one from Prey. It sets the mood perfectly, having an almost nostalgic sound to it to match how old the game feels that eventually gets quiet and slightly uncomfortable.
If you haven't tried Prey, I would do so. Its incredibly frustrating, but its one of the most interesting games I've played this generation

I don't think any other publication reported this, not even Pitchfork that raved him and Zomby before.
But it's not surprising, its not like the industry has ever given the slightest shit about WOC.

yeah, its kind of disgusting hearing people praise "classic" artists like David Bowie or Jimmy Page or newer ones like Miguel or Kool A.D. when they have allegations against them. but because their music is good, people just don't give a fuck..
that being said, Orwells can eat shit and deserve to be trashed and so do the listed people above

he didn't even show remorse or has shown any hint of trying to fix the careers he destroyed, so i think its safe to say he isn't even close to redemption

I just read the google doc that describes a good chunk of their sins, and holy shit straight white boys get away with so much. I know shouldn't be surprised at this point but jesus.
