“At this point in my life in addition to writing about movies, I may write about what it’s like to cope with health challenges and the limitations they can force upon you. It really stinks that the cancer has returned and that I have spent too many days in the hospital. So on bad days I may write about the vulnerability that accompanies illness. On good days, I may wax ecstatic about a movie so good it transports me beyond illness.”

Whenever I see someone use that specific slur, I wonder how old could they possibly be.

“Good Mercian movie.” Mitt Romney gives it two thumbs up.

(P.S. The villains in the movie are North Korean.)

There are a ton of these “now I hate all Asians” tweets on Twitter now…

image

…but that above tweet specifically led to this amazing conversation:

image

“Typical Asians.”

At least she knows what she is, I guess?

He is rightfully suspicious of Internet-centric utopias, but now might be a time to go beyond suspicion, and to engage in what media scholar Henry Jenkins calls a “critical utopianism.” In the void left by the defeated solutionist vision, we need new stories to tell about the future of technology in society. What remains to be seen is who will step up to tell them.
