Christopher Lee really did have the perfect voice for Death. Especially Pratchett’s Death. He required absolutely no modulation or audio enhancement. He pronounced, and it properly came out the perfect audio equivalent ALL CAPS STATEMENTS WITH ALL THE SOLIDITY OF A LEAD SARCOPHAGUS

In the absence of Christopher Lee and Iain Richardson, I approve this casting.

I remember being a bit disappointed in the original series. I was interested in it but it felt a little bit like Gender studies 101 applied to video games. They didn’t really say any thing that was that shocking or new.

Lovely Jezzies—I dedicate this story to you.

I just switched to LA Fitness this year, and I’ve been so amazed by the women in the locker room. There seems to be this multi-generational group (I’d guess mid-20s to 60s), white and POC, that are on the same AM gym schedule, and the times I’ve been there I’ve heard them talking about a) the best non-profits…

The big-budget movie star version of “’You can’t say anything these days’, says man who consistently says whatever he wants.”

he’s consistently been working in massive, big budget movies the entire time.

My greatest victory is all due to being in recovery after years of off and on addiction. About nine months after I got clean, I took a temp job as an admin assistant. I worked really hard, was honest and transparent and they quickly hired me as Administrative Manager. It was honestly the most fun job I’d ever had. I…

I used to go to an LA Fitness. Nice gym and all, now I have a home treadmill.

In Jackson MS, about 4 years ago, I was at a popular bar during an open mic night. I was sitting in the back chatting up some random new acquaintances. On the stage a mostly-drunk/completely-joyus woman had wandered up to an empty drum set. She banged on the drums for 10 minutes. Every second of her performance was…

It was a small thing, but I got to quit a job in righteous indignation, and that was really satisfying.

I used to be a barmaid in a remote Australian town that had a large Aboriginal population and was so, so racist. The pub had two bars in separate rooms, connected by an opening behind the bar so the bar staff could move easily between them.

Some little shithead was hitting my six-year-old kid at recess. We talked to the teacher and the principal multiple times to no avail. (We don’t know who is doing it, your child only mentions it after-the-fact, etc)

I used to work in a government subsidy program that paid for child care for needy families. I had an 86 year old client who was caring for her 3 grandchildren ages 5-10 in my caseload. She missed an appointment and I had to initiate a termination of her case. She didn’t get in contact until the day after her case…

This morning I made the jack-off motion and laughed at a man road-raging against me and got him so upset that he threw his water bottle at my car before zooming off.

I consider that a triumph.

I went to graduate school for a degree in a male-dominated STEM field. The culture in the department and university was terrible. Women were routinely sexually harassed and silenced through the department. I built up a group of women in the department and fought for two hard years alongside them and other amazing…

I get really frustrated by it! Literally, the only thing my partner and I fight about is when he gets extra slack and relies on my ‘mental list’ of where everything is at instead of thinking for himself. Hell, he asks me what the weather will be (I now just stare at him until he goes ‘right, not the weatherman, I’ll…

This is silly, especially because the (very cute) sneakerhead/imminent dad featured on the 7th episode of Marie Kondo’s Netflix show was led* to an ideal solution to this very problem: He stopped wearing boring sneakers and finally started to wear and enjoy the Jordans, etc., that he’d been collecting for years. He…

Counterpoint: if you need someone on Netflix to tell you how to clean your house, the problem might be you
