I love the Oscars, but Ill allow nearly any critique of them.

Did they overlook your favorite performance?
They do that sometimes!
Is there still so much ground to be made up when it comes to representation?
Why do the most beautiful actors on earth always submit to such unsettling spray tans?
I just dont know.
The Oscars, these people argue, are just too long.
How Far is Hollywood From Achieving Equality?
Yes, the Oscars are long.
You know what else is long?

(TheJet Ski was cute,but come the fuck on.)
The Oscars are unwieldy, and they ought to stay that way.
The only thing that needs to be played off is your attitude.
