So disgusting. Intellectual porn — of the bad kind, even. And so many consequential and inspiring and worrying and beautiful things going on at the same time.
@tripu The sad thing is that other oscar winners get completely overshadowed by this incident... It's all talk about the slap and nothing else. That's kinda a slap in the face of those others too.
That too, I guess.
Although the Oscars themselves are only slightly more interesting to me than the stupid Will Smith thing.
(The #Oscars are a cheesy event where a specific organisation gives awards to a very homogeneous handful of rich people; the whole thing is horribly US-centric, the merits of the winning films are dubious at best, and it works as an hours-long commercial wrapped in glitter.)
