In regards to this whole twerking thing, I can’t believe people STILL have problems with sexy dancing nowadays.

What other types of sexy dance can any fictional characters do without the internet whining about it?

I mean, what else would Eda Clawthorne do INSTEAD OF BLOODY SHAKING ASS!?

@Hollowfox The Worst
being cool.

@phoenixacezero
She already is.

But in all seriousness, I find it weird people are still against sexy dancing in media since 2016.

I saw someone complaining about the twerking because children watched these shows.
We’ve seen worse In terms of sexual content on Disney plus

@Hollowfox The Worst
Less about the dance and more about morale grandstand. Which funny when the same people get caught doing it.
For example that one priest who was against gays getting caught an gay orgy, the director of Cutie who had no problem doing the same stuff she said she was fighting against.

@phoenixacezero
What does people find twerking cringe (especially for having modern dances) have anything to do with morale grandstand?

I just don’t like twerking.

Minus the act itself it was a decent moment if denouement towards the subplot of a Light Elf stealing Megan Thee Stallion’s identity and a moment of “victory” for Jen to get to hang out with one of her celebrities after a hard fought case/mugging attempt.

@Hollowfox The Worst
Because some grandstand on opposing the concept of sex appeal, but use sexy stuff anyway.
@Dustcan
I don’t like the word and depending on when it done.

confusing reality with fiction.

Several Nickelodeon actors/actresses and staff members have came out recently detailing more about Dan Schnider and Nick’s unsafe work environment.

Some of the things of note:

-Dan said that women writers could never be funny and would try his hardest to not allow any woman writers on any of his shows

-Tried to get one of the Amanda Show stars (a teenage girl) to constantly give him massages even though she said she was uncomfortable with it

-Humiliating the same actress by make her bring up embarrassing high school events while telling her to simulate “being sodomized”

-Several cast and crew members of Victorious complained about how a lot of the clothes Dan made them wear for the show came of as being too over sexualised for teenagers and several scenes being very sexual and making them uncomfortable. They brought these complaints up to the Nick higher ups and they did nothing.

-One of Dan’s friends was also the writer for the theme song on Victorious, who groomed one of the actresses and started dating her while she was in her late teens and he was in his late 30s/40s

-Constant verbal (and some times physical) abuse towards cast members of his shows along with other inappropriate behaviour, to the point where Jennette McCurdy and Ariana Grande had to get the higher ups at Nick to get Dan off the set of Sam & Cat

The more i hear about Dan, the more horrible he becomes

@Beth
I actually feel legitamately sorry for clowns in America. It probably used to be loved until the 20th century.

If I ever write a story, I’ll make the clown a good guy. I might even make him the voice of reason.

“This amused Kosuke Yabuki, who felt that he ‘learned a weakness of Americans’ after the exchange.”

Ah shit. Pearl Harbor 2.0 will not be fought with suicide bombers sent by the emperor, but by clowns sent by a video game designer ain’t it?

@Cosmas-the-Explorer
I blame Stephen King

Here’s how Stranger Things 4 should have ended:

Joyce, Jim, Will, El, Mike, Nancy, Jonathan, and Murray look over Hawkins being consumed by the cracks
Murray: Well… stranger things have happened.
Laugh track and freeze frame as “Running Up That Hill” plays one more time

You forget the part where they all jump up and then the camera freeze frames.

Imagine being a chef working at the castle where this guy who never shuts up about food lives:

So apparently Jameela Jamil, the actress who plays Titania in She Hulk, is close friends with Megan Thee Stallion. And Jameela used that connection to get Megan to star in She Hulk. Meanwhile Tatiana Maslany, who play Jen Walters, is a big fan of Megan. So CGI aside, She Hulk fangirling over Megan in the ep 3 credits were genuine.

That’s neat.

I can’t unsee Max being the creepy/weird/crazy distant uncle of Elinor:

I ponder if Elinor wonders why Uncle Max doesn’t visit at all…

I locked myself out of my house with the oven on. Firefighters had to drill my deadbolt open. Somehow my mom isn’t mad, but it’s my birthday tommorow, and now instead of having fun I got to replace the deadbolt. Maybe i’ll have a little fun, the cat is safe now atleast.

Edit: The firefighters broke 3 fucking drillbits getting my door open, while i was at the neighbors house taking shots. I’m just happy i didn’t get arrested for negligence.

@Beth
Now I want to see that police scaring Patrick meme with this as the base. Just put Kosuke Yabuki’s face or “Japanese” label on the police with “Americans” label on Patrick while the wanted poster is a clown.

@Dustcan
This kind of makes me like the scene more. I’m all for actors just having fun.

@Beth
don’t fear the clussy.

@icicle wicicle 1517
Isn’t it always known Dan Schneider has always been doing disgusting things to young actors/actresses and should basically go to jail? Are we only outing him now?

So apparently, there has been tons of names floating around regarding new Marvel Cinematic Universe hires and they’re expected to be announced at D23 next week.

Rumored names include Denzel Washington (an eye-opener for sure), John Boyega, John Krasinski (kind of a given), Giancarlo Esposito (he had noted a while ago he had been talking to them about a role), Jodie Comer, Daisy Edgar-Jones and Henry Cavill.

The implications of Cavill’s possible hiring are the most far-reaching. WB under Zaslav has been trying to get him to come back to the DCEU for that long-shelved Man of Steel sequel, and a defection of one of the DCEU’s current main players would suggest Cavill has little interest in reprising his role as Superman. I can’t imagine the Snyder bots will take such a defection well, either.

@SleepySteve
I would love to see Cavill in the MCU. The rivalry thing between two comic book companies is stupid anyway and actors can be in both if they have the chance. Don’t know why people would be so worked up over which one the actors play in as if they’re actually picking a side or even care.
