Bruno Mars says he had a lot of fun watching the Super Bowl last night (no mention of JT, oops), but he's already looking ahead to next year. After hearing that next year's game will take place in Atlanta, he's offered a suggestion to the NFL.
Yo is it true that the next Super Bowl is in Atlanta?

Taylor Swift might be secretly building a giant luxury building in New York City?
Taylor Swift has allegedly bought another luxury apartment and may combine it with two others to form one giant super-penthouse/townhouse.
She owns an 8,300-square foot penthouse in TriBeca that she combined from two individual 4,000-square foot units. She also bought also bought the three-story townhouse next door to her building.
Now, she has apparently bought a third huge unit in her building... or has she? And does she have an ulterior motive? Put on your detective hats and break out your LaToya gifs, ONTD.
An LLC purchased the apartment, which should be worth about $5 million, for nearly twice the price at $9.75 million. It's the same LLC that Swift used to purchase the next-door townhouse. The notary and attorney used in this transaction is the same notary/attorney who notarized the deed for Taylor's penthouse and her other units. The notary has not been used in other buyers' or sellers' real estate transactions for this building.
It is possible that Taylor (if she is indeed the buyer) wishes to break through the buildings' walls and connect the three units + adjacent townhouse into a giant, two-building luxury penthouse/townhouse. This seems super unlikely to be permitted, but rich, powerful people have have been able to get away with ridiculous real estate permits before. Another possibility is that she would use the next-door building's indoor garage to come and go without paparazzi detection. (I choose to believe the first option, because it seems more likely from La Diabla.)

Fans Spot Gay Couple in the Solo: A Story Wars Story Teaser Trailer
– Twi'leks are one of the most popular alien races in the SW universe, particularly in the old and new EU, extending from Mission Vao in Knights of the Old Republic to Jedi Master Aayla Secura in The Clone Wars all the way to Star Wars: Rebels with Hera Syndulla. They're also sexualized among fanboys, have often appeared as dancers and/or strippers, slaves, and in Return of the Jedi featured the first black woman in a SW film (Femi Tayor) who died a gruesome death (in facepaint). Think the Asari in Mass Effect.
– Fans continue to push Lucasfilm to have LGBT characters in their films, especially considering every recent director (aside from Ron Howard) has talked about it but no one has actually done anything.

Celebrities React to Paul Ryan Praising $1.50 Increase in Salary Due to GOP Tax Bill
Speaker Paul Ryan was criticized after he pointed to a secretary’s $1.50 weekly increase in take-home pay as a sign of the GOP tax plan’s success https://t.co/DZmVrzvfNX
— The New York Times (@nytimes) February 4, 2018
– Rep. Paul Ryan tweeted out an Associated Press article, pointing to a high school secretary's $1.50 increase in salary as a sign of the GOP's tax plan working. “A secretary at a public high school in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, said she was pleasantly surprised her pay went up $1.50 a week ... she said [that] will more than cover her Costco membership for the year,”
– Critics dug into Ryan's comments being out of touch, especially considering the conservative billionare Koch family donated $500,000 to Ryan after the tax bill passed in November.
– Democratic Opponent Randy Bryce made $150,000 in 24 hours off of Ryan's deleted tweet and aims to take him out of office this November.
.@SpeakerRyan Remember "unmasking"? That went great too. How much longer are you going to let @RepDevinNunes make a mockery of his important chairmanship and by implication make you & House GOP leadership look like a weak feckless failure?
— Andy Richter (@AndyRichter) February 3, 2018

Anna Biller (filmmaker behind The Love Witch) explains why we should stop calling movies feminist
- in the past few years everyone and their dog started calling movies "feminist", hoping it would give them some sort of stamp of approvalNew Blog Post: Let's Stop Calling Movies Feminist https://t.co/SnhKVdQWoUpic.twitter.com/8VLLjCtnaw
— Anna Biller (@missannabiller) February 5, 2018
- very few films are actually feminist, it's just that the bar is set pretty low (a movie treats a woman as a human being, especially if the director is a man -> feminist)
- compares films from before & after the lifting of the censorship codes in the 60s
- pre-code films often had bold female protagonists & forced men to get inside the fantasies of women, as well as identifying with & admiring them
- post-code films were all about male fantasy and expression, so films aimed at a female audience became lowbrow
- rejects the idea that exploitation films can be feminist
- "By using the word feminism so often and indiscriminately, we are erasing feminist discourse. The over-use of the word feminism has rendered it entirely meaningless as a serious political topic, making it easier and easier for everyone to think of it as just a trendy subject or a buzzword rather than the very fabric of women’s lives. This is an effective way to kill a political movement, andit’s working."
