Britney and Justin pulled the matching look off way better. (Okay, half kidding.)

I think "She was like the Goldilocks of tweets" is going to be my favorite sentence of 2013.

I'm sorry you had to deal with all of that, but it feels good to write it down! And you have a right to be pissed. And I'm still keeping my eyes/ears open for anything that comes along.

Seeing their Purple Heart t-shirt design was a little shocking. How did they ever think that was okay?

He's probably too busy counting the number of comments on his blog to respond.

I never knew the number of blog comments was a good gauge of community support. How about when you have zero followers on Twitter while 8Asians has over 3K? What does that mean?

How is that movie revisionist? It's about two children trying to survive and stay together during the war.

So what's the difference between a night market and a food truck gathering?

Yay, another DWJ fan! I'm a Chrestomanci fangirl myself.

Tina, you're killing me with this post. Diana Wynne Jones is one of my all-time favorite writers (RIP) and this book is one of my favorites. I also love Miyazaki and while I thought the movie version was good, I believe it doesn't do the book justice. He definitely added a lot of his own anti-war stance into the plot and I feel like Jones' book went so much deeper than that--like her fascination with parallel universes, how she wove John Donne's poem throughout the story, the realistic magic (which she does a great job with in all of her books), the humor, etc. I think Miyazaki really nailed Sophie's character down (and the soundtrack is great!) but I'll take the book (and the two sequels) any day.

I did read that Miyazaki was a huge fan of her writing, as well! So he must have great taste. ;)

(And Sophie did have magical powers all along. It's why she was so good at hat making; she brought them to life, which would grant people's wishes. She just never applied to herself.)

I feel awful but I kind of hated the trailer. It's like one long romantic comedy starring Kelly from The Office looking for the perfect boyfriend.

You're right. A mascot based on derogatory stereotypes about a culture, complete with slanty eyes and "ching chong" copy isn't racist.
