It would be nice to see the day when ALL positions for employment are actually based on the job candidate’s qualifications and merits. But that ain’t never gonna happen and we know it! So if you got skills, try to find out how to make it on your own.
As for the Oscars? Did something happen? I stopped watching that particular awards show years back. Long time ago, we might have argued about the “hint of racism” in these ceremonies. But that lady who played the maid in “Gone With the Wind” did got an Oscar, even though she couldn’t go to the celebration part afterwards because Negroes were not allowed. Sidney Potier got an Oscar for “Lilies of the Field”. Denzel Washington has more than one Oscar on his belt notch. Perhaps the person who started the Academy Awards actually did want to give recognition to outstanding actors, directors, etc. But these days, especially these days, we all know that the award shows are about money. And any little “controversy”? It’s probably about money too! That black and white stuff is just “window dressing”.

I feel you are seeing the same thing I am. It’s like having various flavours of ice cream and most people buying Rocky Road, (for example) and the store deciding this in unfair to strawberry so people have to buy strawberry.
When Avatar roped in more money than any other picture and didn’t get the award one wondered where the head of the Academy was?
I have no intention in seeing a movie about homosexuals. It doesn’t appeal to me. I will prob. watch la la land online because its a ‘feel good’ movie and sometimes… gee… people go to the movies to… um… be … I don’t know…? Entertained?
To my mind La La Land won… but it was more ‘politically correct’ to give it to Moonlight, so the envelopes were fudged…

I think helping animals and doing charity is something good she’s doing. So I’d definitely go with that. I don’t think though that all people can do this. If anyone is doing this then good for them.

It’s obvious that it is just being rewritten. She just chopped it into sections.
It can still be detected as plagiarized.
It was. I tried to warn the Mod, he ignored me. It brought the entire site down. There are many topics one will write and write about again because they get stuck in your mind. But one has to write from different angles.
On Wikinut I had written about the Bubonic Plague… and another writer had written about the Plague at virtually the Same Time!
I thought he Plagarised my work until I read his….
The joke was… the BBC had mentioned the Plague, I ran to do my research, he ran to do his. We both published at virtually the same time… two totally different items from different points of view.
