Burned house suggested to me that Todd had burned them all alive after Melissa left him/he thought Melissa had left him.

It's not the quantity of your sexual relations that counts. It's the
quality. On the other hand if the quantity drops below once every eight months, I would definitely look into it.

Apparently "Chelsea Kane," who voiced the catgirl, is a Disney Channel actress/pop singer. I looked over her Twitter and she amusingly did nothing to promote her appearance on this show.

I could absolutely be wrong because people said after Matt Smith that no one would ever play the Doctor except a fuckable 20something that tweens want to bone and that turned out to be wrong but I think Doctor Who may be so popular now that it's past the point where the Doctor can be played by some rando British…

In current continuity, it has never even been mentioned, not even a hand waving reference to "boy, I was crazy then!" Anything to that effect is just a fan theory. The idea that the Doctor was half human and the first Time Lord is at least hinted at in The Silver Nemesis. It's also explicitly stated in the books,…

You could read that scene a couple of ways (even discounting the issue of whether it was entirely a ploy or not). Was he happy because the Doctor now has what he has with the Daleks or was he he happy because the Doctor now has what he lost with the Kaleds? I thought we were supposed to interpret the whole thing as…

Danny deserved to die and I hope he burns in hell.

I would say this episode was more concerned with shit that happened in the late 2000s than with stuff that happened in the 70s. There were lots of references to the Russel T. Davies era: The Shadow Proclamation, the Ood, the Vortex manipulator, and finally Davros, who played a big part in The Stolen Earth. It's…

I don't know. I cringed the whole time watching this. I'm trying to figure out why. It was even dumber in the early seasons but back then it was less self conscious. You would think more self consciousness would be a good thing but the opposite has happened here. Now everything is very winky and tryhard, every moment…

If you read the Entertainment Weekly article posted in the review, she was originally was going to say "I love you" right when he was clipping her nails but they changed it to "let's have sex" at the last minute.

I think they wrote themselves into a corner by naming the show "Catastrophe". They probably felt obligated to insert some drama. The way the narrative had been progressing though, it didn't really make any sense. Their relationship had actually been going pretty fucking great. Every complicated had been due to forces…

I personally agree that being privileged should not disqualify you from caring about other groups. I judge arguments based on merit, not based on how oppressed the person making the argument is. Ironically though, the people who disparage others for being privileged are themselves usually privileged. That's the joke,…

Even Black Lives Matter is mostly made up of relatively privileged African Americans who are assimilated into the largely White world of private liberal arts schools. I don't actually have a problem with this, because I'm not obsessed with privilege checking, but it certainly has a surface level irony given that the…

True but to me the atmosphere on the left is more troubling because the impulse to call everyone fascists is coming from academia, traditionally a segment of society that valued intellectual discourse. If college students don't want to consider opposing view points, what hope is there for anyone else?

The joke is partially that the modern social justice movement in America, or whatever you want to call it, is mostly middle class White people.

Conservatives are free to say anti-PC shit on Fox News, liberals are free to say PC on MSNBC. I guess you can call that debate. There's no honest interaction between the two except for the occasional Crossfire style exchange of talking points, most of which you can predict about 5 exchanges in advance. People only…

"read between the lines" in other words, put words in their mouth that they didn't say, ie construct a straw man. Exactly.

I think that's a straw man and I don't think many people want to do that. Certainly no one in this thread has given the impression that's what they want to do.

No one in this thread has claimed the most rape victims are lying. 4-8% of them lying though, as even most well read feminists will concede, is reason enough not to establish a presumption of guilt.

Non-consensual sex is different from killing because there is such a thing as consensual sex and not such a thing as consensual killing. Or at least, consensual killing is much more rare, usually still considered a crime, and almost always heavily documented by both the killer and killee.
