C’mon, Liz, it’s the 90s!

You are welcome.

I volunteered at a con she was at once. She looked at us, decided we weren’t sparkly enough, and proceeded to sprinkle glitter on each of us. She just had a bag of glitter in her purse! “Now you guys are ready for showbiz!” she said.

Help me, Liz Lemon! You’re my only hope!

I found this interview completely delightful, but I worry about how the hosts seem to introduce the clip and react to her like she’s some kook, instead of a whip-smart intellect. She’s more than wacky—she’s making a deliberate choice to turn her high intelligence and highly tuned BS-meter into humor instead of despair…

I loved her guest spot on 30 Rock- “Never go with a hippie to a second location”

Carrie Fisher is the shit. “Gary’s bored as hell.” BEST INTERVIEW EVER.

I never thought I would say I want to see this movie. In fact I would have put money on the fact that I would never go see a Star Wars movie.

I went to Comic-Con, and waited in line to take a picture with her, and she had this pup with her then too! She was just so kind and sweet, she held my hand! and when she thought the photo didn’t turn out well, she asked the picture people to take a second one, and she was right, the first photo I had my eyes closed.…

“We,” democrats and republicans, have been doing just the opposite for so long I don’t see why you believe that’s even a remote possibility. Saudi Arabia has been promoting reaction Islam and persecuting moderate and progressive Islam since before anyone else, with full US complicity.

Hmmm. Y’know, I think if anyone’s having a ‘rough fucking week’, it’s the people who died, and those close to them.

Yes! People see my opinion of “no guns for anyone” as “extreme” but I work in public health and I have no idea why people think that something that has 0 advantage as owning a gun and lots of risks for the gun owner and his household members and even friends is seen as anything but a public health threat. I’m willing…

Mass shootings just this year. Just. This. Year. Interactive map at the link. I don’t know, maybe it’s time to do something about the proliferation of military hardware in this country?

I can’t understand a woman that has been brain washed by religion into leaving her infant son to go commit murder. I can’t even start making sense of it.

Quite seriously if I had a family member who had *allegedly* raped a 12 year old? They can sit in jail and rot. But then I don’t like most of my family .

It’s absolutely tragic what happened to the child, but I know survivors of rape who go on to lead fulfilling lives. That’s all I’m hoping for the kid. Obviously with a ton of love, therapy and family support.

Much like The Rolling Stone piece, I continue to be frustrated by how a widespread problem can only be talked about on a case-by-case basis by the obtuse. People get so into picking apart the individual instances that they can’t see the forest for the trees. It’s exactly what’s happening with the undue use of police…

ETA: my following rant doesn't mean in any way that I don't respect women who act in porn. I just find the industry to be extremely problematic.

I think LaBeau makes a good point that we haven’t heard from the others yet, namely that it’s not just Deen, but others, too. There should be some kind of industry-wide shakeup to make sure things like this don’t happen any more. If we’re not careful, we might think kicking Deen out of the business is enough, when…
