@enright_mi88699 @smh11_01 @J2daJones Sure, I agree that casting could be better. But that’s a separate issue than someone refusing to adjust to the way the game is happening around him and how it’s been for the last 10 years.

@LiveFromKevin @smh11_01 @J2daJones The casting SUCKS! I don't want all superfans. Give us a true diverse cast.
English
I can’t believe I am writing this … are yall tired of dragging Joe & Johnathan yet lol. #Survivor50
English
@enright_mi88699 @smh11_01 @J2daJones Yeah. So unless he finds a time machine, he doesn’t know how to play survivor
English
@smh11_01 @J2daJones Joe just plays an old school game and casting fills the game with all super fans. If casting was like it was 15 years ago he have a legit shot to win.
English
@kevinnosaurus @BeigeFrequency OR those are the very character traits that he shares with Trump.
English
@BeigeFrequency The trump allegory/mockery is just and addition in the later season , his true core character been consistent since season one till the end which he's a narcissistic spoiled little kid who throws tantrum whenever he didn't get anything he wants.
English
I want one of you guys to articulate how homelander was a parody of trump and why you feel that way.
Jaeger Media@jaegermedia1
All politics aside I truly hope Anthony Starr gets a better role for his next gig, he’s an extremely talented actor. Until the show went full TDS and made him a parody of Trump he was absolutely killing it as Homelander. In the first season he was the best villain I’ve seen in years. His acting deserves better than the clown show that Kripke turned The Boys into.

Nobody. Nobody says this. It would be an incredibly stupid thing to say.

Who says Survivor doesn’t cast hot people? 🔥🔥🔥 #Survivor #Survivor50

@CeoOfSurvivor47 @SurvivorRef Well one of the 7 left has to win, so surely comparing them to each other would be more informative if none of them are reaching this winner edit benchmark.
English
@SurvivorRef Yes that’s an important note, there are like 6 extra players to account for in this format, but it does still seem like an odd underedit for Aubry if she did win because her legacy and story is so rich and exploitable
English
With the increasing speculation over Aubry’s “winner edit” on survivor 50, I did the math on how her confessional total matches up to recent winners. In the next 2 episodes Aubry would need
52 to match Savannah
60 for Kyle
54 for Rachel
43 for Kenzie
31 for Dee
#Survivor50
English
@CeoOfSurvivor47 Yeah plus the 24 are returning favorites, fans are going to want confessionals from Colby, Ozzy, Cirie, Christian, etc. More competition for screen time.
English
Important note somebody did bring up, there are 6 extra people on this cast, so it’s understandable that a winner could be underedited. However, it’s Aubry. She has a legacy and story that seems like an easy in for screen time especially if she was the winner
English
@igorenka @CalvinBuzzy Yeah they were so close Tiff dropped her at the merge and went straight to Cirie. I think that was more of a good move for Tiff, keeping good terms with the person at bottom in case of shenanigans and to have options.
English
@CalvinBuzzy This is not true. 2 examples on how bad her edit is: not showing her real relationship with Tiff; not showing how she really influences players such as Jonathan and Devens. I could go on and and on about her and other female players this season.
English
"I don't like Aubry" = "Her edit sucks"
"Aubry's game is bad" = "Her edit sucks"
Her EDIT is good, you just don't like her and she has a pretty objectively bad winning game. That means nothing about how they're editing her. The edit is giving her WAY too much credit, actually
English
@eclecticstan @StarBase48 Like I think most of the jury is happy to make this a Lifetime Achievement Award. Good news for Cirie (who deserves it) and Aubry (probably less so). If Joe was named Andrew Savage and Rizzo was named Cochran (and each played the exact same), Aubrey’s win equity goes way down.
English
@eclecticstan @StarBase48 I don’t disagree, per se. but With this jury, i feel like the only reason she beats the names you mentioned are bc they’re new era and the jury isn’t. She hasn’t been shown to have impressed or had great bonds with most of them.
English
she has a good edit and you can tell it’s a good edit because her game sucks. She very clearly is making at LEAST final 4 due to how she has played so badly yet gets a confessional every episode and has a clear storyline where they give her credit for multiple moves #Survivor
Calv@CalvinBuzzy
"I don't like Aubry" = "Her edit sucks" "Aubry's game is bad" = "Her edit sucks" Her EDIT is good, you just don't like her and she has a pretty objectively bad winning game. That means nothing about how they're editing her. The edit is giving her WAY too much credit, actually

@ClaireMax @ilaninglis Well to be fair, one of them happens almost daily for everyone, the other happens to a subset of the population a few days a month.
But yeah, I can’t think of any examples in female-written fantasy, either. Might be in Broken Earth?
English
@ilaninglis It’s mentioned but heavily glossed over
English
Why do fantasy worlds never discuss how the women in them deal with their periods? Like we can have multiple fucking scenes of men pissing and shitting in A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms but no the concept of a period is too gross to even be mentioned in any fantasy universe
English
@MrBeerseeks @PhillyBadTakes @mattyglesias @davidsirota Not the voters, it’s the candidates, electeds, and pundits.
English
@PhillyBadTakes @mattyglesias @davidsirota But the idea that “centrist” voters take their political cues from corporations is so observably false that all you’re really arguing here is that Sirota has nonsense conspiratorial takes. It doesn’t support your initial argument that this is all obvious and MattY is being obtuse
English
It’s interesting that the corporate Democratic/country club Republican faction that has fought such a vicious factional war inside the Dem Party for so long is suddenly calling for a factional ceasefire now that Dem voters are so intensely rejecting their corporate centrism.
Sarah Longwell@SarahLongwell25
The factional fight between progressives and centrists *on here* is mostly divorced from how Dem voters actually think about candidates at the moment. Broadly when I listen to Dem voters they want candidates who are going to fight Trump and R’s hard and win their elections.

@brawnvivant @LingoUnbound They didn’t stop being weird, there’s no shortage of material.
English
@LingoUnbound I don't think he stopped calling them weird. The thing about this, which Trump understands, is you have to keep doing different shit to get attention. Repeating the same line for weeks doesn't get attention. Walz needed to keep hitting them but with some new material.
English
Every now and then I remember Tim Walz’s “they’re weird” campaign and how close the dems were to actually shifting the way people perceive the right in a very real way and then they just…stopped
English
@zendaimyo @offbeatorbit 90% of the scenes were their apartments, hallways, or the coffee shop (which always had extras). Wouldn’t expect more people at their homes. They usually had extras in public spaces, Same for Seinfeld and other shows of the era.
English
@offbeatorbit This was always an issue with tv. There’s like a handful of times in friends when you see anyone other than main cast / guest stars, usually just the coffee shop
English
I honestly feel like this is a bigger problem in TV these days than anything.
Daniel Brown@ohhellodan
What I miss most about old movies is extras. People on the streets, in the background, all around. So many films now feel like the characters exist in an almost empty world. Like this scene in Body Heat— I couldn’t think of the last film I saw that felt so casually alive.

Comic book YouTuber Comics Explained says he will not cover anything Eric July or Rippaverse related:
“I’m not going to cover the Rippaverse. That’s not going to happen.”
Is there a soft blacklist going on from people tangential to the industry? Why is this?

@ashlaystarstar @SarahLongwell25 Yes, was going to say exactly this.
English
@SarahLongwell25 Do you think your conclusion is swayed by your focus group demos, i.e., primarily people who voted Trump at least once?
I understand why you focus on center-swingy voters.
But as a result it often seems your conclusions and suggestions are over indexed on that group.
English
One of the funny things about kicking the DSA hornets nest is how much I’ve learned about my own role in formulating the game plan for Kamala’s 24 campaign. Apparently I was in charge! I organized the Cheney event! Dude, there’s hours of tape on this, go back to 2024 and it’s
Sean@demsocsean
My main takeaway from this was the revelation that Sarah has a book coming out on how to defeat MAGA when Kamala lost following her exact game plan (down to campaigning with Liz Cheney). Tim Miller is only Never Trumper who has actually truly thought about what happened in 24.
