Against the Grain GF pizzas, Udi’s cookies, and pancakes made with Pamela’s GF flour have all surpassed their gluten-filled counterparts for taste, texture, etc. I’m the only celiac in my family but my family strongly prefers the above three items....

“While eating “gluten-free” has for some reason turned into the hip thing to do in recent years, for him it’s a serious health concern...”

I feel the same way about DB-9 connectors ( never forget . . . )

I’m: a) a man; b) heterosexual; c) an avid comics fan...

Even though they don’t seem to grasp how far away their pot-bellied, inconsiderate, misogynist selves are from the heroes they want to pretend they are.

To mangle a quote of Larry’s:

I watched the episode from the day of, in which he asks, “How was your day?” It honestly hit me pretty hard. It was a spectacular episode too. Both Larry Wilmore and the show’s writers have a lot of grace.

Well thank goodness it was your wallet, otherwise that’d be embarrassing to have to show a security guard.

Childcare!? In my day they just dropped you off at the bootstrap factory where you work your way up from the bottom. Coddling these children will not turn them into to the sociopathic corporate elites this country needs.

Considering the fact that roles of substance are few and far between, less than 40% of speaking roles on screen are women, movies rarely pass the Bechdel test, and actresses actually take pay cuts for the chance to play something other than a shitty foil for the male lead, there really is wage discrimination because

So a talented male actor is a rare and indispensable thing but all female actors are essentially interchangeable? Um, yeah. That’s definitely the problem.

I have no mixed feelings whatsoever. The disparity in pay between lead actors and lead actresses is huge. Huge. It is unfair. These women have every right to advocate for equitable compensation. The lowest paid actor on Forbes’ top 20 list (Matt Damon $25 million) would be third on the actresses’ list. Third. This

I totally see your point about how its off-putting to have people complain about equal pay when the difference is getting paid $5 million instead of $10 million per movie or whatever, but unfortunately they are much better placed to speak out about this than many other women for a few reasons. Salaries in Hollywood

Stories like this and factual observations like yours convince me that we are a doomed society.

I actually just said this to my dad the other day. Back when everyone was upset about the Patriot Act & listening in on our phone calls my dad routinely said “if they aren’t breaking the law, why do they care?”. Well he was bitching about how people record the police and now they’re scared to do their jobs my answer

Jesus Tapdancing Christ...

Nah because her kid would be like “OMG, this may be the only chance I’ll get to watch porn before moving out at 18 to escape this controlling bitch. Thanks for the game mom!”

Firstly: piss off.

What if they were coming off work, or at lunch, or any number of reasons that they didn’t have time to change? Believe it or not service men and women don’t just walk around in uniform because they feel like it or expect anything from it.

I am Mexican. I for random reasons have documents. But I have many relatives and friends who are EXACTLY like me in every possible measure but have no documents. I do not consider myself any different from an undocumented Mexican but I can and will vote and I will make sure that me and my kids NEVER forget this. For
