  Opinions on new Star Wars comic are messy in a feminist me too sort of way (there were people saying in the comics  on saying "why didn't you complain about Harley Quinn" and another. "We did! no one wanted to listen to us when we screamed that it rings to true to things that have really happened to us" and at that point, if it's too real, I don't see how it's offensively anti-feminist. If anything it's a cautionary tale)

Geekly Weekly TV Rankings (➤ for new) ( I live tweet shows on twitter, but try  to keep those spoiler-lite @AndrewGeczy)
  1. American Gods ***
    I'm not quite sure what I just watched. It didn't seem like a season finale, and though it had some good moments and some good performances, the police disappearing made no sense, all in all the episode was a middling experience that didn't really lead anywhere. Just sorta jumbled up its pieces and walked away. What a mediocre second season of a once great show. It's not so bad now that it's not worth watching, but I suppose that is an choice everyone will have to make for themselves.
