An important question to remember when considering this year's Oscars nominees: What is the white man mad about here, again?

vulture.com/2020/01/what-is-a-

In a year that saw a leap in the number of diverse, challenging films of quality, the fact that the nominees keep spotlighting "old Hollywood" is incredibly disappointing. In an era of increasing homogenization in media, the Academy could have been the champion of the new.

Looking at the Oscar nominations is kind of depressing, mostly because Hollywood keeps rewarding the same boring, terrible people. ScarJo nominated TWICE, but you can't find room for Lupita Nyong'o for US?

Tarantino gets the nod, but nothing for The Farewell?

I really hate dragging companies on social media for poor customer service, but it really is super effective. Just goes to prove that most corporations care more about their reputation than about actually doing right by their customers.

On top of THAT, my @blueapron@twitter.com shipments for the last two weeks have just not shown up. And their only response is "That sucks, here's a refund."

But I'd much rather have the dinners, you know? And no one will tell me why this is happening, except @AxleHire@twitter.com basically sucks ass.

It feels like I have spent half my life on hold with Dell Support by now. I just want them to stop asking me to return a laptop I already told them was stolen, why is this so hard

I’m getting my first progressive lenses today! So exciting to look even MORE distinguished

I never, ever get tired of watching proposals, they just make me so happy ;.;

This thread! I’m not knocking Bernie, but Warren has a clear, well thought out plan.

RT @GCForcina@twitter.com

Chatted with a Sanders supporter today and they said as a queer person, I should support Sanders over Warren. I asked why, and he responded by saying that Bernie has the best policies. So I decided to do a direct comparison of Warren and Sanders’ proposals. A thread
