Such a sad story. But incredibly well documented. I just don’t know what to say. I wish peace for those she left behind.

Good points. I’ve never received a product in exchange for a review, and am not sure that I would even want to be involved in a deal like that. But I have tried to write a favorable review when a product works for me, and have even responded to a couple of “user questions” forwarded by Amazon. I will write a…

I use wireless headphones primarily during my commute to listen to podcasts. I like wireless because I can more easily keep my tablet or phone in my backpack. So what I want in wireless headphones is comfort, value, ease of use and long battery life.

But that’s just it, of course. It’s not about you, or what pisses you off, or even your ideas about what should comprise an educational curriculum (which oddly seems to omit parents).

You write as if kindness and decency is the easy default position of people. It’s not. And the point is NOT about whether “basic decency” from adult celebrity athletes is remarkable. Look at the picture. Look at how the other students are sitting easily in groups. And they are not necessarily being neglectful or cruel…

Sadly, political campaigns can be like a blood sport. And with Trump you get sexism, no extra charge. His supporters will defend him, no matter what. It’s like the most rabid sports fans with ultra violence.

I really wanted to love the new “Ghostbusters,” but it was just competently amusing, not hilariously funny. I was especially disappointed with Kate McKinnon, who mugged and posed more than she did any actual acting (granted, some of her mugging is often very entertaining). That said, it it better than a lot of this…

Thanks for the feedback. For now, I just need to charge a smartphone and a couple of tablets. But I may throw the new version on my Amazon wish list, in case I update my laptop.

I recently ordered the older, 40W model. Is the newer version really superior with respect to charging power?

The idea is to make early abortion difficult by putting impediments in a woman’s way, everything from mandatory ultrasounds and other unnecessary tests, phony counseling, and of course making it difficult to travel to a suitable clinic. Then, after delays have played out, an absolute prohibition after 19 weeks is a…

The writer is honest about the way in which many of us pick up our political beliefs, from our parents and family, from our peers, from our boyfriends and girlfriends. And there are people who do all kinds of intense activist stuff who never really think about what they are doing, or its consequences, and who could…

Lively’s statement may be “passively racist,” but making anything of it is actively stupid. In fact, it’s not even an insult to Oakland. But some people have apparently appointed themselves progressive commissars of racial purity, and constantly make fools of themselves in trying to police phony “racial community”…

Wait a minute. Robbie is not really a blonde? Doesn’t this require further investigation.

The problem with Osha’s storyline is that she has been away for so long and is done away with so quickly that I was almost numb to her fate. And it seemed unsatisfying to know that she tried so hard to protect Rickon, but was so spectacularly unsuccessful. And it also seems cheap that she would try to use such an…

RE: In this fictional world what would you have done if you were in Tyrion’s shoes?

Kinda much ado about nothing. Neither male nor female on-camera personalities can wear clothes that appear to be too informal. A male anchor who came to work wearing a t-shirt would never get on the air.

Nope. Hollywood is still largely run by white guys, and they come up with all kinds of rationalizations to support projects that appeal to themselves and their buddies. So, there is a weird hierarchy in which the most desirable money is young white male money, followed at some distance by young white woman money. Even…

That the remaining characters don’t interact definitely affects the show. But this is also why Tyrion and Dany getting together, sounding each other out, was so deliciously satisfying. And more dramatic reunions could be in store for us this season.

It’s not that others remained silent. It is that the “controversy” very quickly and wrongly devolved into “white Hollywood vs black actors” reductionism. From the beginning it should have been about all people of color.

I missed the post where you said that you were tired of Holocaust movies.
