And this is why Actors on Actors shouldn’t rely solely on reunions because who would’ve thought we would ever get this conversation from Keke Palmer and Sharon Stone
This is how serious NY is taking this Finals. Elmo had to retract his statement cause the city was like you a New Yorker this ain't the time for neutral shit
One of my favorite couples welcomed a son they named Knyx. And I’m sorry he is in fact the cutest baby, the baby shower was so fun and perfectly decorated, and now I really think us all coming together in Knicks regalia last August was good juju. KNICKS IN FOUR!
My son’s teacher just called and said I might have to pick him up from school today because he started a loud “KNICKS IN 4 !” chant followed by a “LETS GO KNICKS!” chant during class.
I’m not sure if I should discipline him or be proud that he’s showing leadership qualities.
the woke orientalism going on here is really interesting. Iranians can not be their own people with their own hopes, desires, and struggles. Instead, they must serve the interests of their nation, and failing to do so is abberant.
this week the woman in charge of the makeup department for obsession finally got justice in a case against her ex boyfriend/abuser, who stabbed her over 30 times in her sleep and ended up sentenced to 32 years for attempted murder, burglary, and rape
notice how leftists hate both malala yousafzai and marjane satrapi. it's almost like they hate brown women who stand up for women's rights because their loyalty lies with reactionary men as long as they're seen as anti-west
over 20% of Lebanon is under Israeli occupation. A genocide is still happening in Gaza. Sudan is enduring the world’s largest humanitarian and displacement crisis. Over millions of people have been displaced in Congo. Do not stop talking about countries that are suffering.
-born into a family of marxists
-protested against the shah and disliked him heavily
-uncle killed for being leftist
-strong against foreign intervention
-still dunked on by tankies and campist
You can’t win with these people
C'est un peu comme se plaindre de la représentation des miliciens ou des agents de la Gestapo dans les films sur la Seconde Guerre Mondiale, ici, elle dépeint littéralement la police des mœurs iranienne avec ses yeux d'enfant.
Si ça vous choque, questionnez vous !
I’m very uncomfortable with the implication that an Iranian artist criticising her government is automatically manufacturing consent for war even when that criticism is loaded with nuance. At no point did she call for the US to bomb her country
The Marjane Satrapi conversation completely strips out the nuance of her work. Persepolis was not pro monarchist and I’ve been confused by all the people claiming it was? It was explicitly critical of the Shah and showed him as a tyrant
