Once you’re in…
Why? Why are the stupid little ideological battlegrounds of the cultural wars important to anyone? Why does it matter if someone says that a born-with-a-penis man can trump biology simply by saying he’s a woman, and the only acceptable response is to acknowledge that poor person’s “reality” and behave as if the demonstrably false were…
Movies Seen Recently: Lost Soul, The Kingdom, Kahaani
