If you're not sure the devil exists look into your own heart
|
If you're not sure the devil exists look into your own heart My grandpappy said that . He was a real hardcase in some ways . It's hard to tell if people of that generation got everything they ever wanted or if they were completely unfulfilled and empty due to lack of choices . Sometimes constructing a blog idea in my brain and I think "you can't say that it's going to upset people !" but then I remember that hardly anyone reads this and it doesn't matter what I say . It's very liberating . Having a blog on here is kind of silly , it being a fucksite and all , but it's nice to literally be able to say whatever you want and it doesn't matter a stich . Olivia Munn has been in the news lately because in the upcoming box office bomb Predator there was supposed to be a scene with her and a dude who was a sex offender and she got him kicked off the picture . The coverage has basically come in three waves . Wave 1 - Olivia Munn is a hero , time's up , feminism , etc. Wave 2 - When she reporting this the studio wasn't happy and tried to cover the whole thing up , boo corporations , boo capitalism , money is evil , boo , etc. Wave 3 - Accusations that after she did this the rest of the "stars" in said film , all dudes , were freezing her out . Somehow at this point it seemed like even though this story was basically pro-Munn it was starting to cast her in a unspecified bad light . Possibly just because people were over the whole thing . My first thought is that the fact that the company didn't want to deal with it isn't really news - that's just how it is . Every corporations wants things to go smooth - they don't want problems or publicity or anything - they want you to keep your mouth shut about anything and everything . We all know this . HR isn't there to protect you , it's there to protect the company - unless you in a union no one is looking out for you , and even that is shaky sometimes . My second thought is much more icky . Because it seems like some form of victim blaming . Or adjacent to it somehow . I mean it's good that she went after this guy BUT it was clearly a calculated move . Because you know who else is in this movie ? Arnold Schwarzenegger . I feel like due to the Trump Effect people have kind of forgotten the roughly 7,777 women that came forward to say that Terminator groped them , cornered them and rubbed his junk on them , was sexually aggressive towards them and whatnot . And you know my theory - if that's what gets out there's probably a couple legit (banned topic) in there too . But Olivia Munn didn't have any issue with that because that's not a fight she can win right ? If she goes up against the Terminator she's not going to win , she's the one who's going to be off the movie . So that's a practical move but you know it just kind of makes the whole thing ring hollow to me you know ? Maybe this is what women have to deal with though , picking their battles - who I am to say ? also curious if the dudes in the cast gave her the cold shoulder after this incident or if that was going on all along - because it seems likely that's just what happens when you're the only woman on the callsheet . Dudes are kind of like that right ? Even though it's not really related at all it makes me think of the current flap over Guardians of the Galaxy 3 . I don't know exactly what happened but after Gunn attacked Trump some Trump people said "hey look at these old tweets where Gunn was joking about various sexual things" so Disney fired him . The main cast all came out in support of him but former terrible wrestler Dave Bautista has been really making a stink about it . The other people know to leave well enough alone but "The Animal" Dave Bautista isn't from the Hollywood world so he doesn't get that you need to swallow your pride if you want to work . In the world he came from it's not only totally fine to talk shit about other people in the biz it's encouraged . I mean we all know that wrestling is "fake" but it's always good for a ratings bump when dudes have legit heat with one another . Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels famously hated each other IRL , as did Edge and Matt Hardy - and countless others . Which is yet another way in which wrestling is bizarre . Image that someone ruins a multi-million dollar contract for you , or sleeps with your spouse , or slaps your , or snitches on you to the cops (all real examples) and then not only do you still have to work with that person your "work" is making it look like you're beating the shit out of them without really doing it . AND if you did "accidentally" drop them on their head and break their neck you 100% would get away with it . And yet they never do . It's hard to comprehend what goes on in that world . The X-Men films have been a pretty mixed bag - setting aside Logan (which was awesome) there's X2 which wasn't bad and Days of Future Past which was "meh" . The biggest disappointment for me was Age of Apocalypse because it was weak ass and Apocalypse is one of my favorite comic books characters . It was also a bummer because they made a big deal about Psylocke (played by Oliva Munn) being in it and her character was completely superfluous . People who don't read comics probably don't realize how insane things get over time - because characters are around forever . It's kind of like a soap opera - things just get more and more out there but the difference is they never go away , there's no actor to age out of the project and/or pursue more meaningful work - more and more storylines just get piled on them . Here's a brief look at Psylocke's history . She was a fancy British lady with psychic powers - her twin brother also had powers but he was just your standard Superman type . Then she was kidnapped by a yellow fatman from another dimension , brainwashed and given cybernetic eyes to star in a TV show . After her brother and the New Mutants rescued her she decided to go live in the X-Mansion seemingly for no reason but actually because Roma , Guardian of the Galaxy (aka God) needed here there to defeat Sabertooth . Later in Dallas she along with many other X-Men died fighting Adversary (aka the Devil) but Roma (God) thought it was pretty cool that they defeated the devil so she decided to resurrect them - BUT for laughs she decided to resurrect them as random new people . Psylocke was reborn was a sexy Asian ninja (obs) . The ninja leader though this would be a good time to ask the yellow fatman from another dimension's six armed magical bodyguard to bring his lady love out of a coma - which she did but she also switched her mind with Psylocke's . For . . . . reasons . . . . So now there's two sexy lady psychic ninjas in a Freak Friday scenario . So Psylocke (in a different body) becomes queen ninja and they send her to kill Wolverine - but seeing his hairy belly makes her remember that she's actually a posh British lady ! But then the other sexy lady psychic ninja showed up and goes "no , the real posh British lady trapped in a sexy Asian ninja body !" and not even Professor X could figure out who was who so they just kept them both . In a short period of time one or both sexy Asian ninja psychic ladies try to get it on with most of the male X-Men . But then the other sexy Asian lady psychic ninja got sick so she committed seppuku which reversed the Freaky Friday and put Psylocke back in her original-non-original body - who then started banging Angel . Then Sabertooth killed her but some different ninjas brought her back to life - which gave her more powers and also made her kind of a bitch to Angel . They decided to quit being X-Men to focus on their relationship . But then the Shadow King killed her . Jean Grey brought her back to life but oh no another Freaky Friday ! Jean and Psylocke switch bodies . Since she had a new body she kicked Angel to the curb and when heroing again - only to be killed by some no-name to save Rogue and Beast who quit the X-Men every other month . She was dead for a while this time but then was back alive again without explanation . Her brother thought this was weird at first but when the Scarlet Witch first changed reality to make mutants in charge and then changed it again to get rid of most of the mutants everyone decided that it was fine . Then she found out that the Shadow King had created a team of Shadow X-Men and when she looked into that she found out that the Shadow King had Freaky Fridayed Professor X himself ! She was then killed . But Roma (God) came back on the scene and deciding that bringing people back to life was played out brought in a Psylocke from another dimension . But this new Psylocke got all fucked up because dead Psylocke was a ghost and was trying to get into her body . So she was like "fuck it" and let her in which resulted in TWO Psylockes in one body - which is like Freaky Friday only different . This also make her twice as psychic of course . Then she started banging Sabertooth because hey , so what if your BF killed you once right ? Then she was killed by the Shadow King - man that guy is a jerk ! But a third clan of ninjas took her body and the body of the other sexy Asian ninja lady and brought them both back to life - you guessed it , switching their bodies Freaky Friday style . Why ? Who cares . She was brainwashed again and tried to kill the X-Men but Dazzler (of all people) knocked some sense back into her and she was back on the team . So then she tried to get back into her original body but BAM the original ninja clan showed up and killed her yet again . going to stop now but this is only like a third of her backstory . Putting first by putting employees first, immediately after prioritizing fiscal responsibilities and leveraging profitability towards exceeding by empowering our employees to put (and themselves) first, in a diverse and respectful environment of only those that come first, first. |

I never realized before how much the writers of X-Men love Freaky Friday Putting clients first by putting employees first, immediately after prioritizing fiscal responsibilities and leveraging profitability towards exceeding by empowering our employees to put clients (and themselves) first, in a diverse and respectful environment of only those that come first, first.

she got him kicked off the picture . .... But is that fair? The actor was charged for developing an online sexual relationship with his 14 year old female relative. [Okay, now get all you gasps and spit up taken care of]..... he served a court appointed term of 6 months. We don't know the details of the court case. He then , by law, had to register as a sex offender. ....mmm a thought.... does a burglar have to register as a "Property offender" after he or she does their court appointed time? ...No. anyway... Wave 1 - Olivia Munn is a hero , time's up , feminism , etc. .... But is she really? What happened to , "Do the time, allowed a second chance in society"? This country is suppose to have a "3 strikes" law.... basically an offender is given 3 chances to behave within society. So why is Munn allowed to fuck up his chance. Wave 2 - When she reporting this the studio wasn't happy and tried to cover the whole thing up .... No... a "Cover up" did not happen. The studio was not aware of his criminal record. When the Studio became aware, they fired the actor. Wave 3 - Accusations that after she did this the rest of the "stars" in said film , all dudes [gave her a cold shoulder] ,.... Not all dudes. There are other actresses in the movie. I mean it's good that she went after this guy ... Is t good? If you did something 10 years ago, served your time....would you want people interfering with your second chance by getting you fired from your job? I feel like due to the Trump Effect people have kind of forgotten the roughly 7,777 women that came forward to say that Terminator groped them ,... "Allegations"! But it's true, when you were crawling around in diapers, Arnold was fucking and eating women in his actors trailer on studio lots, or involved in gang bangs at the gym , one time comes to mind..he was with a hot black woman who came out of the dressing room naked. She knew what she wanted. Grown ass women are not completely blameless, throughout history. And Trump did say, they gave consent, when he said, "They let you..". People always leave that out. Back to your Munn Op-Ed; curious if the dudes in the cast gave her the cold shoulder after this incident or if that was going on all along .... Good question. In 2004 Munn made allegations about being sexually harassed by Director Brett Ratner. He disputed her allegations. So now she blows the whistle on this Steve, who was tried, and served his time. .... So maybe they thought what she did to the actor was low. With the metoo movement taking out men, I could understand why these guys would ice her out. ...My feeling is this kind of adversarial tension, is going to make , women getting hired for roles, a whole lot more difficult. Especially a woman who has a history of making allegations. because it seems likely that's just what happens when you're the only woman on the callsheet . ...... Well not quite... Yvonne Strahovski , not too bad looking for a 36 yo woman, was also in the cast. Dudes are kind of like that right ? ...No. Dudes are not. If something is legitimately wrong "Dudes" will stand with a victim. But Munn is not a victim. Nothing happened to her. She just decided to take some information, she was told, and make it public to the Studio, causing a man to lose his 5 minute part in the movie.
