Point-blank admission that culture wars are a distraction from real issues. Stop letting right wingers use vulnerable people as a bludgeon and focus on policy.

Once again, our media ignores war, minors being assaulted in ICE custody, record debt, trade war w Canada... Because they can get salacious bigot-clicks fearmongering about girlpeen. Meghan Hall is just #trashy. As are the editors at USA Today who allowed space to be taken on this polyester hate.

Conspiracy theory that's going to turn out 100% correct in short time: The WNBA discourse about Sophie Cunningham is a culture war distraction for right wing bigots to avoid talking about Pussolini.

I love that social media is mad at this. As if anyone going to see this movie hasn't already seen the vast majority of the list to begin with. But that's life in the bullshit hot-take economy: Culture war tribalism that requires little critical thought.

The MCU's approach to Hulk annoys me: He learned to control the Hulk offscreen. He had a romantic arc begin and end with Black Widow offscreen. He became an alien gladiator offscreen. He became a professor offscreen. Can we actually SEE his major decisions for once? "Show, don't tell" etc?

I was bummed they announced Blade in the first place. It robbed us of any chance we'd see Ali play Cottonmouth on Luke Cage again. Marvel had one in the hand and went for two in the bush.

Doomsday looks like 'Last Days' with a lil 'AvX.' The multiverse (meh) is physically crashing together, and now it's the XMCU and the MCU finally crashing. Each planet's supers either problemsolve or try to destroy the other. Doom finds a solution: Merge them into Battleworld. Now, Secret Wars.

If you have a hot take on Avengers, it's probably best to look at the graveyard of commenters who thought The Odyssey would bomb. Internet communities are echo chambers.

The Odyssey was excellent. It more clearly connects hubris and war than the translation you might have read. It's also maybe the best action choreography of any Nolan film, and the plot didn't drag despite a 3-hour run time. Could've used a little more emotion during homecoming, but overall? 9/10.

People will complain about "inaccuracy" in The Odyssey, then happily watch Clash of the Titans... Featuring The Kraken from Norse mythology.

Hot (unimportant) Take: Making MMO games is why Bethesda declined so much as a developer. Elder Scrolls Online and Fallout '76 charge ~$15/mo, plus the game itself. There was no financial incentive left to make another single-player Fallout or Elder Scrolls. It all goes back to "Horse Armor."
