It actually kinda pisses me off that every time there’s an adaptation of some classic work coming out, there are takes like “maybe we should not judge the adaptation compared to the original”… I think if the creator doesn’t want their work to be compared and judged on comparison, they can make literally any other type of piece. I’m not arguing for a word for word adaptation - I think those are impossible, first of all, and just not fun to strive for. But slapping a recognisable title, names and plots into your work, and then turning around and asking people not to compare your work to the original is simply absurd lol

A+ weird little dude, but I'm equally fascinated by the choice of music.

Not that I think all marriages are doomed but when deciding who to marry you should ask yourself “is this someone I’d want to divorce?” As in, is this someone I believe would be mature and fair, even when they’re upset and don’t particularly like me at the moment. Is this someone I could continue to trust while going through an adversarial process? And if the answer is no, don’t marry them.

they really don't respect the time of disabled people. your application can take up to 12 weeks. the specialist waitlist is 3 years. your assessment will be any time within the next 6 months. let us know if you cannot attend this appointment you waited 7 weeks for and we'll reschedule next year. we've decided to assess you at this time and day and you have to be available or any support you dared to apply for is not going to happen. and in between these long bouts of waiting you have to survive the everyday

Y'all need to look up what this dude did. He was too tired to drive on his way to a match so he let a black hitchiker drive for him, then when he got to the arena walked in with his arm around him to the boos of the crowd, which he decided to embrace and make worse by kissing the guy on the cheek. He then went whole hog into the persona hanging out in black neighborhoods, going to black bars, and getting arrested on petty charges then going to court after hiring a black lawyer paying his fine and then doing it all over again. Wrestling was not as popular and the viewing was segregated but the promoters were only selling about half capacity for the white section while the black section was sold out and people were still clamoring in to see him but they couldn’t because of segregated arenas. The owners of the arenas and the promoters eventually decided that business is business and started slowly desegregating their theatres and every time this guy showed up they were selling out all their seats, to the point where this guy and one other held the record for attendance that held until the late 80’s/early90’s.
