I upvoted this because I agree, but on the other hand, as a Canadian, I still prefer the US hegemony to almost any other that might appear. I mean, if Sweden decides it wants to rule the world, I'm on board, but otherwise I'd like for the US not to go up in flames.

Right? In this age of Everything Should be Available at Any Time and Also Free of Charge, people seem to have a problem with the idea that the original cast recording is how most of us have gotten to enjoy Broadway musicals since forever. I guarantee LMM did not become the Broadway fan that he is by catching every…

What's weird is that the article says AMC is buying out Odeon. Cineplex, which bought AMC a couple years back, used to be Cineplex/Odeon. I doubt this will affect the Cineplex prices, but still… mergers are weird. (That's about all the brain power I can summon up right now.)

That's really good advice, actually. (It's amazing the number of actors who went on to be quite successful who say they joined the drama club because there were girls there.)

I had the misfortune of reading more of this thread while being logged out yesterday, and noted that he was cheering for people who couldn't really afford it, taking out memberships in the ACLU because they can't depend on their government to protect their civil liberties anymore. Sacrifice is for other people,…

It was lovely, actually - smooth (naturally) and sweet. I don't know how many times you could use it before the sweetness disappeared, though.

The white supremacists do want to have a million kids, or, more accurately, they think birth control blocks the increase of the white race. It's not far off from the thinking of those Quiverfull people: women exist to give birth to an army.

Thank you.

Call your Representatives. I believe it was idiotking who has worked in a district office before, and said that they pay basically no attention to Twitter and FB notices, and not much more to emails. But if you call in person, that gets attention. I personally would also recommend calling for positive reinforcement as…

Saw this on Tumblr today:

That was about the articles, not the comments.

I actually know a couple that got married who met because one of them was selling a couch.

Agreed on the leading - it's the only thing that sticks out to me as being ever-so-slightly off.

Let's think positively, and hope that in 2018 a) there will still be a recognizable government, and b) the Democrats take back the Senate. And also do whatever they have to do to fix the House gerrymandering in 2020. So, only 2 vomit-y years!

Excellent user name/comment synergy.

Small town (small city?) Ontario. Probably less than 100,000 people at that point. And there were definitely places like you're describing - my dentist was in a commercial building that also had an X-ray clinic and a pharmacy in it. But the doctor's place was on a residential street about 4 blocks from my house.

That's interesting. My first doctor had her office in one half of a semi-detached (or maybe it was a duplex, not sure) and lived in the other half. Clinics where multiple doctors had practices were unknown to me until my teens. But her office was not in a basement.

Someone tell Gingrich, please?

I like it better than the font they were briefly using for the Newswire section on the 'front page' at least. That was always blurry.

They aren't always ads for products or services, though. Sometimes they're just ads for other AVC content. They make the site damn near unreadable for me at work. If they could just not be auto-play, even that would be an improvement.
