I'm having a really hard time seeing how "the show presents Piper as the only intelligent or sane person." I can think of many characters whose intelligence is highlighted. While there's certainly much to talk about in terms of the show's portrayal of race, class, and sexuality (both good and bad), part of the appeal…

Not to mention (if you didn't catch this as well) that trans folks of all genders are routinely put into solitary confinement "for their own protection." It's just infuriating on so many levels.

2) Sandra Gering, she's an art dealer. Apparently.

Probably not; her name is Sandra Gering and she's an art dealer (according to the credits in the original). And also clearly a charmingly confident coquette.

Nope. Nopenopenopenotaylorswiftnopenopenope.

My guess is that aaarrrgyle's response, subconsciously or not, is rooted in the cultural idea that fat/chubby women's more fleshy bodies are automatically considered more sexual (at the same time that we're also desexualized. humans are weird.). Like how if I wear a v-neck top, it's just automatically considered more…

Although, shit, I might resort to that, too, when spiders are involved. I can't handle spiders.

On the other hand, you said "nowt," so that's pretty rad.

Am I the only one who read the word "Jeffersonian" and immediately thought this was going to be about some sort of PR stunt for Bones?

WHY ARE THEY SO CUTE?!

It may not be your type of show, but I'll say this:
I watched a few episodes of the first season when it first came out and for whatever reason, I didn't like it. But a few months ago, my housemate convinced me to try it again and I am now head over heels for it.

Clearly. How else is one supposed to flag fisting top while wearing a bikini?

You can stream it all for free on couchtuner. If you're into that sort of thing.

You DO live under a rock! 'S okay though: we all have our rocks.

Yes! Retta in Seattle, since she'll have the condo paid off by then!

Right? I want to be her friend, and have nights where we drink highballs and paint our nails. And talk about sex. And then maybe have some.

Also, if the pics below aren't meant to be sexy, then I don't know what is. Hummina hummina, indeed.

A lot of traditional pinups were sweet and/or humorous, so I really don't think it's fair to say that "Hilda is played for laughs." In fact, I think that's part of the appeal that pinups in general have for contemporary audiences: the portrayal of beauty/sex appeal in a light-hearted way, as opposed to the vamp,…
