Can anyone explain the game theory or rationale behind him tying with his opponent in his first game? He was in the lead, they both answered correctly, she bet the farm and his wagered amount equalled hers rather than the expected one dollar more. I found it odd.

I don't feel so good.

Huh? What does that have to do with the "murder" in question being of a non-viable fetus, prosecuted and punished as though it were a living person, setting a precedent legally that could be deleterious to abortion rights?

Completely agreed. And now scared by the legal precedent. Fucking Florida.

That was my first thought as well. If there were any charges related to the "fetus as a person" this verdict would be seriously setting abortion rights back.

Brava. Completely co-signed. I used to adore this site beyond reason, thought it was finding important, feminist stories to bring to light. Not so much in the past year. Everything now is celebrity gossip and fashion and appearance/weight related. It's like my 7th grade all girls Catholic school class took over the…

Well-said. All part and parcel to the rampant hyperbole employed by Gawker media in its headlines and articles. Honestly, I am far less interested in this site over the past 6 months/year.... many fewer articles on important feminist topics, much more emphasis on celebs and fashion (with all the attendant overwrought…

I agree. I think they did an amazing job with the reunion and with acknowledging the wait and bowing to fans and reestablishing all these relationships and introducing Mary.... that the "case" felt really rushed and kinda beyond the point. But I cannot complain. It's still my favorite thing to watch of anything on TV…

Am I the only one who actively wants these asshats to keep saying this stuff and saying it far, loud and wide? GRAB THE SHOVEL AND KEEP DIGGING, GOP! HERE'S SOME LEMONADE, YOU MUST BE PARCHED. NOW BACK TO YOUR HOLE!

Oh man, I miss Moriarty. I LOVED LOVED LOVED the almost kiss, such a wink and nod to the fan fic audience.

EXCELLENT POINT AND GIF. Now I will go watch S3 E1 again for the 5th time. The first 30 minutes may be amongst the funniest and most poignant of the entire run thus far.

Missing Best Television Comedy: Brooklyn Nine Nine which.... Huh. Wish it had been Parks, Parks deserved it more any of the last 5+ years, but at least Michael Schur's genius is finally being recognized. And go Amy Poehler!

Oh I didn't take it as condescending (the winkie face helped not jump to the "sweetie"="I think you're a simple little woman" place ;). Appreciate the advice. Gonna do that this weekend and gorge myself on Sherlock. I have managed to not learn how he faked his death by avoiding most media outlets and Twitter, so the…

Where??? (I actually didn't go hunting because I was enjoying the anticipation, but I am getting exhausted avoiding spoilers....)

IS IT THE 19TH YET?

My big brown baby loves it soooo much!

My socks are wet....

Yes, I am clearly the right target for your anti-awesome vitriol, in that I clearly use words in colloquial and wrong ways. Fight the good fight, my friend!

I used it in its original, non-colloquialized intent: inspiring awe, which the English language does for me.... YMMV.
