Well said.

When it's closing all but 5 clinics in the entire state, yes...it is basically banning abortion. When it requires that the abortion doctor has admitting privileges., yes...it is basically banning abortion. When it makes the cut off week earlier based on debunked science, yes, again...it is basically banning abortion.…

Uh. Hey, most of us are outraged.

Gerrymandering. The urban areas are split up so their votes don't really count.

I agree with your edited-in last comment whole-heartedly.... sad, but true.

Right, but white dudes are way worse at writing believable women character when they try and make them all woman-y. We can smell it a mile away, and it sucks, and we hate it. So maybe it would be better if you just gave up, and wrote a dude, and switched the role to a woman. It would probably feel more authentic to me.

Any way you slice it, I love my Bowie cheekbones! #humblebrag #firsthashtagiveeverusedinmylife

Wait... what if my jaw says, "marry me" while my cheekbones just say, "climb on"? Does my nose become the deciding factor? My eyebrows?

Two words: Katee Sackhoff.

A superhero movie,

What tropes do you want to see avoided?

I'm going to be less charitable and guess that Doug hasn't seen it.

Creepfest Broadway musical? How the F is Into the Woods a creepfest? Geez.

I don't understand how they can not cast Bernadette Peters: she IS "Into the Woods".

No. There is literally nothing on earth more obnoxious than undergraduate philosophy majors. The most pompous, puffed up, full of themselves annoying bastards on a college campus. French lit majors wish they could achieve the level of mental masturbatory discourse as the philosophy major. We had hella fun parties…

If that "common interest" is manipulating people into sex, then they deserve to be generalized. And mocked. But this guy didn't even get to the mocking. He stopped with the generalizing. That's no reason to punch someone in the eyeball.

Oh, PUAs. You little, little fools. I've encountered many of you over the years, but my favorite by far is still the man I'll call Barney (for obvious reasons, and most you probably aren't dating a Barney, and I do not want to associate your lovely partners with this terrible person by using the same name).

In college, a guy I took a GRE prep class with was being all flirty and I was all "meh", but then he put his hand on the middle of my thigh. HELL TO THE NO! Unless I say we're dating, the most you will get to do is touch my fucking knee. It was brief "kino" and I was completely freaked out by his forwardness that I…

My college flatmate read The Game and over the course of a weekend became a PUA. A sickening, terrible PUA. Classics included "your nose is a bit too big for your face," and "you smell like a hamster I had as a kid".

I cannot stress this enough: READ THE BOOKS. I know, I know— ain't nobody got time for that, but if you do give these books a good 20 minute scan, you are armed for all kinds of hilarity later that night when you label their tactics with the same jargon they were taught with, for example, "OH! Nice neg! Am I the first…
