Carrie adaptations will never have a fat actress cause producers/directors are convinced that people won’t sympathize with a fat female character so viewership will drop and considering our current rejection of body positivity and our celebs becoming skeletal it’s unsurprising.
My father never accepted Yoshi's addition to the Mario series only ever referring to him as "The Serpent". "The Serpent is at best a tool not a character", he'd say. One Christmas I asked for Yoshi's Story and instead received a bible. "The Serpent's story is in there", he said
Rewatching Pacific Rim (best film ever made) and I think we’re all seriously overlooking “Stacker Pentecost” as one of the hardest names to ever be conceived.
Note the extremely precise language here. “I spoke *to* McConnell”…”I told him xyz”…no replies. The man is clearly braindead and only clinically ‘alive’ (if that), hence Jennings can claim to have ‘spoken with’ him without technically lying. This whole farce is shameful.
I spoke to my old friend Mitch McConnell this morning, the senior Senator from Kentucky. He’s still recovering in the hospital. We talked for just shy of 20 minutes … about IRAN, UKRAINE, the unfolding situation in MAINE, my visit to the TR Presidential Library, and even a little bit of Senate history. I told him we want to see him back at work as soon as possible.
