A few things.

1. SHOOTING A CHILD OVER THIS IS NOT OKAY. It would be better to stop him, explain that we shouldn't be just carrying this around, and explain to his parents why this could be an issue.

I assumed it was a German Shepherd when I read the headline. I will use this an excuse to post a picture of my beast. She would definitely protect me like Noah did, which is heartbreaking to even think about.

I love his character on Brooklyn 9-9 precisely because he's the mix between huge buff strong guy and sweet gentle dad. Nobody on the show damns him from being a loving, dedicated father, either— they help him balance the roles as best as they can (given their own failures as people. )

So, let me get this straight: Missori cops want to punish black men for putting their hands up and saying "Don't shoot." Hrm.

I really REALLY dislike him, but there are a few songs of his (or he is featured on) that I love. And I am just like if you werent such a god awful person, with some seriously god awful views I could appreciate these songs so much more. But then he throws some bullshit rape threat at Iggy Azelia and I am just like…

Well, my slacktivisim is already satisfied... I don't shop Black Friday anyway.

Yes, I hated the epilogue to Mockingjay, and really thought that Katniss should have found some other person who wasn't mentioned anywhere in the book to be with, because both Peeta and Gale were tainted for me. Peeta was boring as shit, and Gale was quite possibly responsible for the worst event in Katniss's already…

I'm firmly Team No One for Katniss (let the girl have some peace) and EXTRA FIRMLY* Team (Book) Gale for me.

I think this is a good thing. Calorie counts on menus do affect my choices. Example: Sorry, Starbucks, but I can no longer enjoy peppermint mocha lattes now that I know they're 500 calories for a venti.

*side eye to everyone using females instead of women in the comments*

In real life, there's a lot of shrugging and "well, what if"-ing.

It doesn't even bother me that the place would charge for bread, but for fuck's sake, TELL people and don't try to sneak extra shit on there.

Do I need the wedding? Can't I just rent a llama to watch TV together?

and jake gyllenhaal as the prince of persia (persia being iran, should really have been played by an iranian, or at least someone of middle eastern descent)

Thank you so much for the good words! I was reading an e-mail from my writer friend Jane Lindskold, who mentioned she was reading "the article on i09", which confused me utterly, because I didn't know of such an article. I whipped right over here, and am utterly delighted and flattered. Just so you know, I'm…

You know who else deserves a Hollywood deal? Megan Whalen Turner and her Thief series. Another ready-made fantasy series that is not cliches and tropes. Done well it could be of LOTR epicness.

I love Discworld a lot, but so much of its brilliance is Terry Pratchett's wordplay, which may not translate nearly as well. Although, I do rather like the Sky One adaptations.

she doesnt have to walk on it
