That doesn't even make any sense. He says it doesn't cost "that much [money] for a girl to live at home with her parents." Sure, if that's all she does. Are her parents also supporting her, paying her medical bills, paying for her car and its associated costs, paying for whatever recreational activities she decides…

Oh don't worry, he covers the issue of your husband dying in his post. ALL OF THAT SHOULD BE TAKEN CARE OF THROUGH LIFE INSURANCE POLICIES. (Abandonment and abuse: still dismissed with "well pick your husband better.")

And if you are a proper submissive woman who doesn't go to college and just lives with her parents waiting to get married and be a housewife, and then your husband leaves you or beats you, that's also your fault for not being careful enough in choosing your partner. You know, because homeschooled virgins who have…

There are! We sort of keep our advertising to the arts districts and like places so that we only draw our own kind. There are two local troupes, The Dust Bowl Dolls and TNT. The Dolls do various bars and have a little bit more of a rockabilly neo-burlesque thing happening; TNT has quarterly shows at The Boom, which is…

Wow. "We're in our twenties, you should have EXPECTED damage to be done!" Great argument, there.

I definitely agree that your first book, especially, should stand alone. I'm actually leery of first-of-a-trilogy/series books now because so often the whole thing is just buildup and you're expected to commit to the entire (often unfinished) series before you get any resolution or explanation for half the things that…

I actually read this because it was on one of io9's "books you can't miss" lists. I was underwhelmed. As soon as the main character was sold to the tall, golden-skinned, terrifying-but-also-beautiful alien I was like, "Oh, I know where this going." Like a lot of urban fantasy, it seems like the worldbuilding and plot…

I especially like that he follows up with this:

Derp, responded to myself.

"I have the genetic lineage of warriors, business owners, firefighters, blacksmiths, farmers, herders, poets, politicians, soldiers, artists and even chefs. Hard jobs that help build the world, thinking jobs that help build a culture, they’ve all been done by men in my bloodline. My ceiling for accomplishment is…

They need their pr0n man.

The books are kind of like the literary equivalent of eating gummy bears for dinner. I don't know if I could call them "good," the writing is pretty juvenile. But I found the first several to be light, quick, reasonably fun reads (the show is over the top in a bloody campy way, but the books are just as silly in their…

The only thing about this show I'll miss, honestly. Hopefully Deborah Ann Woll will move on to bigger and better things.

Wow, in addition to the fact that that's an obvious lie, she's previously said herself that she hired him to make the tape because she thought he was "a professional," or something like that. She was disparaging his professionalism at the time. I don't remember what he did to piss her off, but it was around the time…

"I had no idea that when I married my husband, and we gave a ton of television interviews playing up our age difference, and did a ton of public photo shoots with me dressed as a stripper while he grabbed my ass, and then we went on Couples Therapy talking about our age difference some more, that people would pay so…

I'm pretty sure the names of famous actors were dropped as "connected" to this film solely out of wishful thinking/a desire to drum up buzz. I loved that Emma Watson was just like "LOL no."

My volume wasn't that high, but I still cranked it way down asap so my neighbor didn't hear and think I was being assaulted or something.

They need hearts though.

I went "Hahah-AAGH!"

OMG Bub said "HAAAIIIIII"
