I really appreciate how in the cartoon, nerdy Spengler was a ladies man. There was something aspirationally cool about him and all his science knowledge, as though he were a cartoon version of MacGyver. Venkman, on the other hand, was a bit of a pest and served as the comic relief. Women wouldn’t give him the time of…

I never saw this show, but somehow I owned an old Shirt Tales 45. (For those of you too old or too young to remember, kids’ cartoons of the ‘80s didn’t just sell action figures. The merchandise folks also put out stories about the cartoon characters on 7" vinyl with accompanying books. I had several Strawberry…

I don’t think it’s fair to rag on any of the Buffy or Angel actors for insufficiently supporting CC.

How many people in Hollywood feel able to speak freely about bad bosses? Harvey Weinstein was able to break careers (e.g. Mira Sorvino). Joss Whedon wasn’t Weinstein levels of powerful, but he was a kingmaker in the sense that David Boreanaz and Nathan Fillion owe their careers to him (Yes, they’re both talented and…

Any number of things might have been going on:

It kills me how feminist Polanski’s work is (Rosemary’s Baby, of course, but also Knife in the Water, and, I hear, Repulsion). Why is it that the men who treat women the worst seem to be so good at understanding and depicting the hardest parts of life as a woman?

I can sympathize with Spears’ desire to have someone other than family be in charge. I have no idea if Spears’ father has her best interests at heart or not, but even if he does, a family-led conservatorship could so easily lead to fighting. Also, whatever your mental health issues may be, it has to be really dispiriti…

It was pretty gross how Timberlake became The Guy Who Took Britney Spears’ Virginity *high five*.

I have no idea how anyone even contemplates sticking something in their orifices that their parent(s) has already used in their orifices. I could understand a teenager buying the same toy that he found in his parents’ room or even shoplifting it, but using your parents’ used sex toys? No thanks.

I mean, Reznor actually did get sober. To the best of my knowledge, Manson hasn’t.

It’s worth saying here that it is always bad to pressure a rape victim to report their assault. Yes, reporting may help prevent other rapes in the future, but reporting must be the victim’s free choice for two reasons:

Also, half of those crappy Sublime covers would have been better than the original.

Same difference, right? The commission “investigated,” but it was never going to find anything, so setting it up, pretending that it was actually doing work, and killing it quietly after no one remembered it existed allowed Trump to claim fraud without having to acknowledge the complete absence of proof for that claim.

That anti-masker political statement is definitely part of it, but no sunglasses? Zorro masks (for the eyes, not the nose/mouth)? Nothing? These guys are more interested in getting good shots for their Insta accounts and the cover of Fascism Weekly than they are in avoiding legal consequences.

It will be interesting to see how sentences shake out. Most of these people are maskless and should be fairly easy for law enforcement to identify.

Ah, yes, forgive me. You’re right that he did claim that he would have won the popular vote if the 2016 election hadn’t been “rigged.” That being said, he really only harped on the issue for a week or two. There was no broad investigation into the “fraud” at the time; it was enough just to plant the suggestion and…

I’d like to take this opportunity to remind these jagoffs that Trump wouldn’t shut up about how the 2016 election was “rigged” until he won, at which point any and all interest he had in “election fraud” went straight out the window . . . until it was time for the 2020 elections.

On one hand, CABIN FEVER seems to have a legitimate problem. On the other hand, they’ve spent the past year living with someone they supposedly love and with whom they are able to have at least somewhat enjoyable sex and they have the nerve to complain about it. On balance, it seems fair to send an angry, masked mob…

The terminology may not be to your liking, but I think some people do need to hear that no potential partner is perfect. There are people out there who seem to think that they can—or at least should be able to—have a partner made practically to order, like life is Weird Science. (What is incel philosophy except an…

Agreed. I don’t want to dictate how an adoptee feels about their biological relatives. There’s nothing wrong with not feeling inherently sisterly to your bio siblings. That being said, this LW sounds like she’s trying to deny the sibling connection because it makes the incest she was involved in feel icky rather than…
