My mom wanted to write me off a few years ago for bringing shame to the family with my out of wedlock pregnancy. I found out recently from my cousin that my aunt verbally slapped the crap out of her for that. My aunt passed away 2 years ago and now I'm disowned over something else. I guess my aunt really kept my mom…

I don't think he did totally shut down his daughter. His last line is " If you find your heart give us a call". He allying himself with his grandson but leaves the door open for her to have a change of heart. I think it's awesome.

I used to be all about discussion, but in the last few years, I've come to realize that there are some folks who simply can't be reasoned with— their hate and bigotry is so deeply rooted that they wouldn't dream of considering an alternative. In this instance, Mom's hate is so deep that she cut her own son from her…

This is really sweet, but... my first thought was "Man, how many batshit crazy people are going to read this, decide it's the most romantic thing ever, and then silently seethe with resentment and passive-aggressive hostility as each day passes and their clueless S.O. fails to throw them their dream Pinterest wedding…

Completely agreed. It's hands down the best of her movies.

Barbara Walters is a tad nutty.

Come to the table? The ACA passed and was signed into law years ago. There is nothing to compromise on. This isn't how compromise works. When one side loses and throws a temper tantrum because they want a do over that's called acting like a petulant child, not a call to "come to the table" to negotiate.

OH GOD THE SPIDER FEELING IS BACK GUYS.

I met Rodriguez when I worked in TV. I had a lady crush on her before that point, and afterward it only grew because she is the most gracious, amiable celebrity I'd met in awhile.

I feel like this is a symptom of the weirdly pervasive belief that women are primarily interested in money and power. This is often taken as a given these days, but I know almost no women for whom this is true. Yes, having enough money to be comfortable is certainly important to many women, but I know almost no…

"Do not speak! They will think you are simple. And then they will drown you."

After only just missing both her classmate Peter Parker's radioactive spider and Daredevil's radioactive waste, Jessica Jones finally stumbled on adequate powers of her own. If she'd been Spider-Man, she'd have her own damn show by now.

Thaddeus Venture had a head start and was heir to his father's company to be successful in fame and fortune under the Venture name and history but it was his tumor birthed twin brother Jonas who became the success in very little time.

OMG THIS IS A THING?!?!? I just thought my bum hated me and wanted to annoy me by making me have to deal with period blood and a messy bum at the same time. Ok. I'm not weird. Cool.

All I know is my gut says maybe.

I am Latino. My mother's side of the fam is mostly indigenous. My father's side is Iberian (Spain) & African. I'm just brown. Even my father's "white" genes are a mix of Visigoth/Roman/Moor & Arab/Sephardic Jew and who knows what else. I've been told that I could "pass" for a local in the Middle East & South Asia.…

And, as always, it's important to remember Hispanic is an ethnic identifier, not a racial one.

But, do you take it as offense that people are curious about it?

I agree. The only reason why people are recognizing race mixing in American is you can now check more than one mark on the census. On the flip side there are a lot of White people with Black, Asian, and Hispanic ancestry that don't know about it.
