I realize this is sacrilege to some people but: there are so many other authors out there whose work could/should be adapted for the screen before one more fucking Stephen King adaptation gets greenlit.

During the last moments of last night's episode, a thought I had I my head was Miles in Across the Spiderverse:"Nah, imma do my own thing". If that becomes the new response whenever Black Excellence is asked of us, it'll be truly world changing

Waxed poetic about that Lanterns show and how its lowest-rated episode had the most to say about a bullshit aspirational platitude.

Black excellence is a term coined, lamentably, during the Barack Obama presidency. It’s meant to celebrate the Herculean efforts Black people make to succeed despite systemic and social barriers like racism, bigotry, and all manner of invisible tripwires that make success harder. Become a billionaire like Beyoncé and Jay-Z? Black excellence. Become president? Black excellence. Become a Lantern? Honey, you just might be a Black Hal Jordan in the making. But every time I hear the phrase, my teeth itch. To me, “Black excellence” lives in the same area code as white people calling a Black man “King” as a compliment—well-intentioned, maybe, but pandering as hell.

My issue isn’t the term itself but the mindset behind it. The idea that Black people must be excellent to be worthy of celebration, status, or privilege. That mediocrity is unacceptable. That you must be exceptional on whatever sliding scale the moment demands, doing twice the work for half the validation. Black excellence is almost never self‑defined—it’s projected onto you, shaped by other people’s expectations rather than your own. It's a prison where your only solace is toxic gratitude for platitudes over self-affirmation. Having John reject that fool’s errand plight as the main hero of a primetime DC Studios series means more to me than any roadmap superhero timeline.

your response to “I was raped” should not be “I was right”

4 panel comic

Panel 1:
A Purple Woman looks distraught, on the verge of breaking down. She says “that man raped me”
Orange Guy standing next to her is absent-mindedly checking his nails. He says “Wellll, I’ve always disliked him and his work.”

Panel 2:
Purple Woman begins to cry. Orange Guy adopts an incredibly smug expression and says “Guess I must just be a good judge of character”

Panel 3:
Purple Woman dissolves into sobs. Orange Guy notices, puts his hand on her shoulder and says “Aw”

Panel 4:
Purple Woman crumples to the floor. Orange Guy, looking bemused, asks “Are you crying because you’re jealous of how smart I am?”

English Teacher here. I never have gotten into following pro sports. I just am not hooked because for me, there isnt a story. There are just things that happen. But Wrestling can really get me, because it is a story. Wrestling isn't real, but, it can be true. Tell people you love them while you can.

I am somewhat discouraged that the response to this on this website has been "hell yeah women can do anything, make all the tests gender-neutral". Because female Marines are a very self-selected group, and when we tried a gender-neutral test Army-wide... a lot of women were going to get kicked out.

As a new Harry Potter trailer makes the rounds, it bears repeating that there’s no way to watch this show without supporting J.K. Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on the trans community.

There is no ethical consumption of HBO’s Harry Potter series

You can’t without supporting Rowling’s transphobic bigotry.

Jewish people using the Star of David as part of thousands of years of religious tradition is not in fact comparable to the Nazis appropriating a symbol from Asian religious traditions for their own purposes of spreading white supremacy. You're being an antisemitic piece of shit.
