deserve

Yes, that's a good way to put it. He basically thinks he deserves an award, and the many people who vote for them do not. They could be wrong, they could be biased, there could have been a lot of performances that just barely surpassed him that year, etc etc. But he's not entitled to an award, no one is! And again, I would argue he has been recognized for his work in many ways.

If you disagree, that's fine, but you shouldn't use straw-man arguments. I had several points in my comment and "he shouldn't want to be recognized" was not one of them.

I love SLJ, but what a (public) temper-tantrum. I realize actors often have unique personalities and that he's earned a lot of his success... But he's also operating at some of the highest levels of privilege, wealth, fame, and adoration. And that's not enough for him...?

A lot of actors think they have been snubbed by the Academy (some rightly so). But to publicly blame your directors and editors comes across as very whiney and is unprofessional. If he wants control over how something turns out, he should direct something, but currently that's not his job.

Somewhere to watch this other than Twitter?

That's a sad keyboard! Whatever caused @cloffwrangler pain can't actually contain madness! Thanks, that's quite puzzling...

It's old... But is it really a meme, though?

Hell, no! Federated content is on the cutting edge of social progress... You're a trendsetter!

I'd say you're too late... but then people started posting memes from decades ago, so what to fuck do I know?? 🤷‍♂️

Sounds like a good reason to delete all your content that they profit off of and stop using it...

So... It's sounding like she was lured out of her vehicle... with a toddler?? And family members heard a scream as she was talking to them on the phone!?

Glad she's alive, but I hope justice is done in this wild story...

I'm certainly not an expert either, but logically an immobile escalator disconnected from power is (to borrow the Mitch Hedberg bit) simply stairs! They don't block off stairways in buildings and force everyone to use the elevator...
