I don’t know, but it sounds like they need to be on multiple no-fly lists after this debacle.

I can see it. A lot of truly horrific people are superficially charming. Look at Ted Bundy.

Aethelred,Tostig, Ealdgyth. Anglo-Saxon names used to be so cool. Then the Conquest happened.

Come on, Catherine, we all know the time is ripe to bring back Aelfgifu.

Related: I had a guy come up to me while I was sitting on a bench grabbing a quick bite in between museums (art historian. I try to hit multiple museums when I get a free day to keep up on new shows. I digress).

The looks I gave every time some asked me at the candle store if we sold candles....I want to shake people who do this and yell "YOU ARE NEITHER FUNNY NOR ORIGINAL! GO SIT AND THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU'VE DONE!"

I lived in Washington for most of my adult life. 15-20% is the standard. I think outside of the service industry, most people are unaware about the differences between tipped-sub minimum wage and minimum wage. I honestly had no idea it was a thing until relatively recently. Even now, after I've learned of it's…

It's a shame the rest of it is so awful because "just bring me a pizza" is a message I feel that everyone—regardless of race, gender or creed—can get behind.

The wild animal trade and specifically the private ownership of big cats is one of those areas where it's 100% black and white. It's pretty damned unethical.

We aren't domesticating them. Full stop.

Signed. DST is stupid, it's dangerous, and, at time when fluorescent lighting exists and is basically everywhere, is completely pointless.

I had a bad reaction to a vaccine (encephalitis) and I get vaccinated against everything, with the exception of pertussis. I have 0 patience for people who chose not to vaccinate.

I suspect that you're right about that. He's never struck me as one who was super gung-ho about the military. Looking at his roles over the past few years, it seems like he is trying to take on meatier acting challenges, which I can't fault him for.

My favorite part of this is that those two are sitting together and their reaction is basically identical. I really hope they're friends outside of forced award show interactions because that would make me incredibly happy.

I've heard that it's not very good for cats. She only likes really crappy Friskies and the like. I suppose I should try and get her to eat better quality dry food. (You know, cat food with actual meat/protein in it that isn't 75% corn). She ate wet food at the shelter, so I'm sure she's had it. I've bought a number of…

I wonder what the fact that I can't get my devil cat to eat wet food (WHY OH WHY WON'T SHE EAT WET FOOD??!?!?) says about me. Nothing good, I suspect.

I am 29 and picking up a few courses I need for grad school at a local university. Being around 19-20 year olds is...a trial at times. I know I was this stupid when I was there age, but Christ. I can't fathom wanting to spend time around a 17 year old (I can only assume they're exponentially worse).

I think that is a wholly reasonable objection to GMOs, one that I think gets lost in the shitstorm. I think you bring up great points and would love to see further research into their effects on the ecosystem as well as the food system as a whole.

Yes! I did my masters paper on a medieval surgical manuscript, so I'm a little...sensative when it comes to people joking about medieval medical knowledge
