It's depressing how well Futurama nailed this shit back in 2000.

Still from Futurama that depicts a bunch of nerdy dudes, one of whom is proudly screaming "Bring on the hot chicks, 'cause I'm a hot stud."

Still from Futurama that depicts Leela proudly saying "I'm a woman if that's what you mean."

still from Futurama that depicts holograms of a bunch of nerdy guys shrinking away in fear.

I wrote about a new Nazi party that seeks to criminalize all human virtue, and how that means that human virtue is the greatest weapon against the new Nazi project.

The Crime of Human Virtue

Sometimes it really is as simple as good vs. evil. This is one of those times. Human virtue is our great crime against the fascist project; it's also our great weapon against it.

I've had issues with her for a while. Chief among them being her bowing out of a local ComicCon and blaming reshoots on Arrow... despite Stephen Amell, John Barrowman and David Ramsey being at the same con.

She also later posted pictures of herself on the beach in California that weekend.

Didn't know about Katie Cassidy but that doesn't surprise me. Her first action after Arrow ended was to sell NFTs of her nudes.

Don't make me tap the Robert Pattinson quote, Leto.

“I always say about people who do method acting, you only ever see people do the method when they’re playing an assholes,” Pattinson said in an interiew with Variety in November. “You never see someone being lovely to everyone while they’re really deep in character.”
