I Can’t Get Over This Star Wars Action Figure’s Hilariously Grumpy Face

At some point in our lives—when it’s Monday morning, when we’ve been rudely awakened from a good nap, when we’ve not had enough coffee, when we spot our arch-nemesis walking by—we have all felt the exact same way this Rogue One action figure does.

Wonder Woman Writer Says Haters Need to ‘Get Over It’ About Diana’s New Canon Bisexuality

The current Wonder Woman writer says that people who reject the new canonical interpretation that Diana has slept with women just don’t understand the character. “You just don’t,” Greg Rucka told me yesterday. “That’s like saying Superman is into justice and the American way, but doesn’t give a rat’s ass about truth. It’s like, ‘Really?’”…
