Not if you’re Bonnie, nothing good ever happens to her.

I think Elena and Damon were always perfect for each other because they were both so boringly “good.” I get that the show needs good characters to anchor everything, but Bonnie was always a good person and an interesting character with real struggles. I’m still bummed to see Elena go, though; I kind of grew to love…

Haha I was pretty shocked by the news even though I’m not up to date with the show. Dobrev is pretty great, and Kathryn was always fun. I think that’s part of what lost me on the show, the villainous love-to-hate-to-love-them characters got a bit too soft. It will be interesting to see what happens after she leaves.

My daughter was gang-raped at her school last year and I’ll take every opportunity to tell parents:

I’m sure if the Rolling Story hadn’t been discredited all these tools would completely believe in rape culture, right?

Goddammit, I want to edit this but it won't save. Here it is:

Because I know that someone in the comments will talk about how dangerous it is to be a police officer, just wanting to come home alive, etc.

It is more dangerous to be employed as a landscaper in America than it is to be employed as police officer. This is a fact that is true and is verifiable.

I have a feeling Deadspin won't be too broken up if you leave.

Seriously well done. “Dismemberment abortion? I mean, that sounds terrible! I hate dismemberment abortion! I’m voting for that one.”

Yeah, I understand how her way of talking about it would be really upsetting to people who are more in danger for any reason — my personal view on the issue is that however people manage their own shit, particularly when it comes to something like cancer, is good for them. If it’s good for her to be dismissive of…

Really? I would never have guessed...

I know hindsight is 20/20 and all that, but even before the Bill Cosby scandal blew up, I was never a fan of the Cosby Show. It was just way too unrealistically Leave it to Beaver hunky dory for my taste. But A Different World? This show resonated with me, especially in the months before I would be going off to…

Frankly, I have no idea how Kinja works. But, if there is any way to isolate everyone who stars this post I am banning all of you.

Can you do an open thread every once in a while where we can share travel photos? I'm not a great writer but I have some good photos from Mexico, the Shetland Islands, and various travels around the US.

Aaah, I'm so all about this! I just need to sit down and pen some adventure info. I love traveling (and lux but on the cheap) and would make a job of it if I could.

He must be the best uncle ever.

I know you might mean this in a rude way, but I actually think it’s really cool that Anna keeps writing about this story. She made a mistake, but she owned up to and and apologized, and her coverage of it has been very very good. I think it’s really brave of her, because she no doubt knows she’s going to keep getting…

Wait, so let me get this right:
