Just because something is funny/silly/farcical, does that make it immersion-breaking? I’m coming from the perspective of someone familiar with the Marvel movies and the Norse myths, but not the comics in between, and I feel like Ragnorak really got the vibe of the mythology right. Thor’s character—the ancient…

It’s a good name!

There are other reasons, actually — when I wrote ‘I’m a designer’ I meant I’m a brand designer for the wine/spirits/beer industries with over a decade of experience doing things like selecting bottle closures — but yes, those are the main reasons.

I like flip-flops. On myself. On anyone. I like them ideally to be nice — leather is good, canvas is good, but even crappy Old Navy ones are okay, peeking out from beneath jeans. They add a nice, casual vibe.

You’d probably do well drinking that bottle in the next year or so, even though depending on your tastes, it could hold on longer. It’s not a super ageable Cab, but it’s probably very good right now.

Personally, I like corks for design reasons — I’m a designer — but just so you know, cork vs. screwcap doesn’t indicate wine quality, or even change packaging costs (depending on a wide variety of factors) for the winery. In fact, cork taint is a real thing that can happen only to wines using natural corks, so in some…

Heads up, your link is set up incorrectly.

I’ll let you in on something everyone else is instinctually getting but you’re not: you don’t know who Janelle Monae is, or why she’s famous, because you are a racist who only pays attention to white performers.

Did you actually watch 13 Hours? Which part, do you think, was Fuck yeah America? Because honestly, I avoided that movie due to statements like the one you’re making, and then when I finally saw it I felt like... that vibe just wasn’t there.

The joke, I assume, is that Keanu’s character is an asshole. The trope of a woman falling for an ass despite himself in the romance genre is strong... goes all the way back to Brontë. (Though this movie tries to make Winona an asshole too, sounds like?)

This is one of many huge oversights of our “justice” system in the U.S.

Not the venue itself in this case, obviously. Aretha Franklin wasn’t Catholic, the funeral wasn’t at the Vatican, and you are seriously reaching because...?

“It’s not appropriate to wear upper thigh length dresses to church.”

Compression socks and such are real, not pseudoscience. There’s a reason that people are made to wear compression garments after some surgeries, while pregnant, etc.

I meant his persona on the show. Personally, I think there’s no way anyone whose life is based on showbiz, like RuPaul’s — not talking about just drag here — can just be themselves on camera on a regular basis. At least, not their whole self. People create personas for public consumption, and that’s healthy and…

Is that having cake and eating it too, though? RuPaul’s persona is a character, and that character has evolved to include a motherly role on a show where it makes sense.

When I was in college I had a contact lens break in half on my eye while I was wearing it. I felt something go wrong—like I had sand in my eye, almost—and then half a contact lens came out into my hand. The pain was insane and I couldn’t find the other half.

How delicate do you have to be to perceive a criticism of establishment activity as an attack on “centrist Democrats”? That the comparison of policy approach to a saltine cracker feels like an insult?

While I understand the “Vaping is better, I guess” point, I don’t think that’s the majority audience for vaping. We’re talking mostly about new users that haven’t smoked a cigarette.

Teachers without basic empathy for their students are jackasses.
