yeah, I moved in with a random roommate I met on craigslist after university. I was in my mid-twenties and my roommate was around 30, so we weren't far off in age from this gang. Five years later and we're happily married. Life takes you weird places.

perhaps we're not really referring to the same thing as I've never conceptualized apartheid as institutional racism so much as legalized racism.

If you look at the devastating effects of poverty on mental and physical health and the ways in which a lack of opportunities and education prevent upward mobility in any context other than through criminal means, and then consider how institutions in the US are consistently slanted against African Americans so that…

Completely. I've had fleeting moments of pure recognition in Adam Braverman before, but in that scene, I had this sudden feeling like my dad IS Adam Braverman. Kudos to Peter Krause.

I don't know that there are a ton of better option for LGB teen couples, but most of Emily's romantic storylines on Pretty Little Liars have been kind of great. Particularly what they did this last season with her and Paige. That show started out as a guilty pleasure I was mostly embarrassed…

I remember passing through SLC with my family as a pre-teen and while watching tv in the hotel, an intense viewer warning started up that got me really wondering what they were about to show during primetime on basic cable that warranted the intro.

I love the word queer, and happily identify as such. Even the word gay, long before it just meant happy, had connotations of debauchery. It's pretty hard, in my experience, to escape the horrors of etymological origins when it comes to "sensitive" language, but at least my modern understanding of the word queer is as…

I've never actually seen an episode of 'the honeymooners' either (though I did get free passes to the terrible movie remake with Cedric the Entertainer and couldn't even sit through it in spite of the relief a movie theater provided in a massive heatwave) but that sketch was still hilarious.

hey, I never said I wasn't being one…

I never had an opinion on Killam until I saw the clip of him recreating the video to Robyn's 'call your girlfriend' during a late night writing sketches. Now I think he's amazing.

I don't want to be an over-PC party-pooper, but the midget jokes are really starting to make me uncomfortable. I used to love Stefon, but his jokes are feeling more mean-spirited. Earlier on, it was just like a bizarre glimpse into this nonsensical Party Monster gay underworld, and I get that the midget jokes are a…

the way I understood it was that the NAACP hired a videography company who had the footage. But you make a fair point that he was not personally responsible for her resignation, even if what he released was the catalyst.

As a Canadian, I had to go look up Brietbart to know what the hell was causing all this, and good lord what an awful man. The fact that he's dead doesn't change that and his tirade against Kennedy only confirms that he couldn't possibly have expected his opponents to show any kind of tact when faced with his passing.

I definitely would have appreciated 90 mins for this finale. Maybe I was just in a bad mood when I watched this, but I really felt like the story lines were cramped. I mean, the penultimate episode set up a lot of these threads, but we still managed to go from Crosby and Jasmine being with completely other people to…
