Look, she has made herself part of this story. She wants to stay married to him? Fine, I really don't give a fuck. But she's using her own popularity (again, that's fine) to continue to try to get him elected. Also fine. But if she wants to get in front of a camera and tell people to vote Weiner, then she has to put…

Yeah, but that "behavior unbecoming" will get ya every time.*

That's not W.

My first ever "author is participating" star! I think I'm maybe too proud of that.

I dunno, KB's clearly still wearing some baby weight. FUCK I AM A BAD PERSON.

I'm all about not slut-shaming people, but none of your male examples make a career out of being a serial dater. Her exes are basically the sole source of her fame; once she writes a song about them, her relationships are fair game.

This article is pretty old, but it's excellent background on pro-choice advocates and why they haven't been pushing back against the outrageous limits put in place over the last few years. I strongly recommend it.

It would be appalling if a country with a history of violent riots and police suppression got the Olympics.

Oh, fuck me. Can my semi-sarcastic and ironic point stand anyway?

Ummmm. Excuse me. Viola Davis won an OSCAR. Look how far we've come.

She is about to be in so many adaptations of young adult books that I love (. . .I'm not ashamed), and it's pissing me off. Divergent AND The Fault in our Stars?! Are you fucking kidding me?!

I AM an idiot for not watching it in 2004! I keep kicking myself because now I feel just slightly too old for it to be okay that I like this show so much.

I JUST started watching it for the first time, like, last week and my heaaarrrrrttttt wwwhhhhyyyyyyyyyy.

There is so much grossness happening on twitter over this. Jesus Christ, people, you don't know either of them, so stop acting like you were waiting for an invite to their made-up wedding. It's creepy. And weird. Yech.

You are displaying a breathtaking amount of naïveté when it comes to your assessment of Hollywood and the gay community. Why don't they just make a new superhero who's out of the closet? she asks, as though gay actors everywhere are just overwhelmed with job offers like this.

Yeah, this is complete bullshit. There are things that are essential to the Peter Parker/Spiderman character, namely: a spider, his parents' absence, the death of Uncle Ben. Liking girls? Being white? Not essential.

When I was a child growing up in Virginia, it seemed like the Commonwealth would be forever doomed to right wing radicalism and backwardness. I won't tell you that it's now a model of progressiveness, but liberals staying and fighting for what they believe in has resulted in two blue presidential elections and two…

I hate Scandal, Olivia Pope, and the entire universe in which the two exist so much that it clouds my opinion of Kerry Washington. And that makes me sad.
