Now that the world recognizes Nicole Kidman as one of our best actresses, I want to see that.

It's tax cuts for all rich Republicans, though to be fair they made this before he announced his tax plan today. And Ginsburg should have emerged victorious out of that pile of goons.
Everything of his I've read (nowhere near a complete list) doesn't make me think he's "super" or "very racist" or "a misogynist", but I can keep an open mind. He may be those things but I haven't seen it, maybe because of my own blind spots or because I haven't read those instances where he is. Edit: I don't remember…
His most recent defense was he read the The Bell Curve twice and didn't find the racist people were accusing Murray of being. I haven't read the book myself, but I'm willing to accept that Sullivan missed it if a lot more people saw it.
I also find his emotional pessimism entertaining.
He for years morally called out the GOP as hateful and nuts; his Christianity is something I can agree with; on his blog, he posted about more than politics, creating a good general interest blog; he's eloquent and has good arguments. All of that makes me overlook his stuff about how "identity politics" is evil. On…
He's been making good arguments for years; only on a few subjects is he the traditional Republican.
Great, now I have to read Andrew Sullivan talk about this for another week. Thanks, Berkeley. You gave a troll what she didn't expect—an angry, potentially violent reaction. That'll show her.
Off-topic, but Sean's staff profile pic is murkier than the others, as if this supposedly transparent journalist had something to hide. #LiberalMediaFakeNews!
Democrats want to gain power again? Go unreservedly after big business.
Thank you for sharing. I missed such sharing creating more empathy between parent and child. To think of our parents as human beings first is part of growing up.
Thank you for telling me that. I was thinking of the injustice of what happened to the person you loved angering you without you being able to do anything about it, but I can see how it would create greater empathy between mother and child.
I was not dealing with any issues, nor did I have anything in common with the movie's characters and story, but Rachel Getting Married is the only time after a movie where I felt this peace and serenity driving home. RIP.
To piggyback on what a quiet storm said, yeah, Gorp Guy has a fun, meaningful life while Deidre only has her boring job, so she is looking for any excitement. It actually was her not him (Phillip).
Haven't read his review, but I hate the "placeholder/table setting" critique of TV shows. This is a long form medium that doesn't behave like a movie, so they can go slow because they've built characters up longer and therefore even the placid episodes have emotional charges. If people want the fireworks factory…
—I was telling Elizabeth "Don't do it" right before she told Paige about her rape. That would be a horrible enraging thing for a kid to find about her mother, in my opinion; I'd be angry at the world. It could screw them up. Paige is getting training, so the next time Matthew grabs her, she could really hurt him. But…
I'm not attracted to men, but my first thought upon seeing him is that he's synthetic version of good looking, as if made in a plastics factory to be "handsome." He's got an oily face.
Well, public figures are fair game for fictional bios. We can't stop making them just because the real people disapprove. What would that do to art? I would advise her to be flattered—and because they didn't wait until after her death to make it—and to treat it as fiction, since it's not a documentary but a dramatic…
Oh, the Democrats will find a way to screw things up. You can't suddenly start making smart plays after decades of making bad ones. If the Democratic Party were a person, it would take a lot longer to get rid of his habits and change his personality.
Their viewers who don't believe in reality will just find another outlet. The problem is the pervasive anti-intellectualism and zealous partisanship that creates a dysfunctional country. I don't know how that is addressed, except that conservatives likely have to get better themselves. And any solution will have to…
