A friend who does a lot of cosplay posted a link to this article about the history of blackface yesterday. A discussion developed in the comments because a couple of white guys thought that we should be over this and not give into the racists and what-about-whiteface, etc. Also, "What if race is one of the defining…

I like that margin! Plus: Yay!

I'd take a fat ass transplant. I could use some ballast to counter my belly.

If Jesse Williams' hotter brother was interested in me, I'd be too busy having sex with him in the bathroom to know how he treated the wait staff.

Then my judgmental self stands corrected. :)

Was the other 'no' to Django?

This seems to imply that either my future SO will have to be someone who is already part of my friend network, or that he will have to blend with my friends quickly to get in under that two month limit. My friends had better step up the matchmaking!

Very much like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, it is a teen drama that transcends its premise. It has a strong female lead, fun dialog, and great plots. I watched a couple of episodes expecting to hate it, and I fell into the trap of watching the entire series.

That's called "frumunda" cheese.

I have given birth and did not fall in love with my baby instantly the way everyone says. It's probably because I was all, "Where are they taking my placenta?! I nurtured that organ in my body for months and now I want to carry it around in a bag until it starts to rot!" So then I couldn't bond with my baby properly.

I can see leaving it connected for an extra few minutes. Even a half an hour. But after that, it's just an additional burden. Or a way to make yourself think that you are doing motherhood perfectly, unlike everyone else in the world. A bit of both probably.

Disproportionate incarceration is exactly why I voted for legalization in Colorado. I don't smoke, so legalization doesn't change my day to day life. But even the district attorney who came to talk to my freshman government class 23 years ago (Norm Early) said that the biggest factor in our local prisons being…

When I was four and my brother Bill was two, he had an imaginary friend. At the time we lived in Langhorne, Pennsylvania on the main floor of a big green house on the edge of a small wood. Bill came into the house from playing one day and said that he had a new friend named Charlie Spieback. "He was in the tree…

I confess, it's because he's in a secret relationship with me. But seriously, I let out an involuntary gasp when he did a little happy dance in the episode I watched this morning. I didn't even realize until that moment how attracted I am to him.

This is going to be my house soon! I have a year old cat and we're getting a little kitten as soon as the shelter gets around to neutering him. I can't wait!

Somewhere in my wicked, miserable past, I must have done something good.

Not when you have half of the government (half of the population, really) dedicated to the status quo, and demanding that every aspect of education be quantifiable to control spending and budgeting. There will always be a huge contingent of people (mainly white, upper- and middle-class people) who say, "It has worked…

So... MORE babies for the people who are too dumb to take care of themselves? THAT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE.

I agree with you. Masturbation is no substitute for a warm kiss, body, unrehearsed motions, and giggling with a partner. It's fine and I do it plenty, but sometimes I just need the human component.

Is that a sexual euphemism? Or are you just really into horns?
