My take was the the RV door was not locked and that the Wolves came in from outside and attacked Rick. I took it that Rick recognized the baby food as being from Alexandria; recall that he made tied-up Aaron eat some of it last season when they met. So I think that was Rick realizing that these people came out of…

Then you quit and work to change the law you find morally repugnant. This isn’t that hard. If your job is to apply the law, and you don’t like the law, you cannot do your job. DA’s and police officers have left their jobs in the public sector to work for drug law reform because they find the current drug laws bad. It…

I flirted with libertarianism back before I knew better. There are some good ideas in there, but the philosophy is based on the idea that all people are equally-positioned. It doesn’t take into account structural oppression and how it provides natural advantages to certain groups (of which Rand happens to belong to).

Forbidden Island and Forbidden Desert immediately spring to mind, as does Pandemic.

Faith in Humanity: Restored.

America’s GOP is gonna gobble this up, though. They too feel like soldiers by association, wealthy by virtue of their allegiances, and free by comparison to the people whose freedoms they limit. They are a party of cultural appropriations, fantasizing about an authoritarian status quo that might just rub off on them.

Hulu vs. Netflix, huh? Okay. I think I’ll watch... Bob’s Burgers. Which service should I use? Let’s see what Netflix has... okay, they have all the episodes in the first four seasons with no ads. Let’s see what Hulu has... 21 episodes. With ads. Or I can pay $4 more than what Netflix charges and get no ads.

I think it’s fantastic that “The Perfect Polo for Every Body Type” doesn’t include any fat - or even slightly overweight - guys. That’s just great. Well done, Wirecutter.

If the Duggar sisters will be in it I have NO faith that it will be a good program. They will probably say it is no big deal, and keep defending their brother.

Sorry, I don’t buy that teenage girls- in an era when rape wasn’t as clearly defined as it is now- would’ve beat up an older man in a position of power who was capable of destroying their careers and reputations (not to mention capable of sexually assaulting them, too). A more realistic scenario is that they saw what…

Guarantee that Rousey double shank legs Coerria right off of a rear choke helix. If Coerria lasts through all of that, I’d be surprised if Rousey doesn’t immediately force a Janckman’s Plexus on her and shatter her buttonhook. Coerria’s only shot is a quick, accurate Miranda’s Reversal into a hog-nosed bat tap. Once…

God, WHY WHY! I am screaming just like the kid “TURN YOUR PHOOOOOOONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! STOP FILMING IN POTRAIIIIIIT!”

The problem is that a) “the street” or “a neighborhood” are not private spaces, so your analogies don’t work, and b) 99.9% of the time when someone is being asked to modify dress/behavior for the sake of “modesty,” it’s women being asked to do the work/altering for the sake of men who are so entitled that they can’t…

I’m not an atheist either. I’m agnostic but if I’m honest with myself I think I’m a believer who just has a real problem with the people who use their religion as a whip. I also can’t stand the people who judge, condemn, subjugate but then when they inevitably fuck up its “let he who is without sin...”. I have a real…

Ha! As a book reader, I feel like this season is moving the plot at hyperspeed.

Me too. I love Charlie always asking “does the girl twin still live with you?”

Vaginas need regulation, not corporations or guns or the military.

I think most are. There are rare cases where a woman does not find out she is pregnant until after 20 weeks, and there is a concern about the damage done before knowing. I knew a girl in college who didn’t find out she was pregnant until 21 weeks. She had been having light monthly periods, and had only gained about 10…

Small government, wooooo!

“how is it that this Muslim employee could refuse service to customers based on his religious beliefs, but Christians are being forced to participate in specific events contrary to their religious beliefs?”
