Nicholas Brendon sounds like he has had a really rough go of it as a human. I really hope things turn out better for him.

The issue wasn’t actually the administration. It seems like this was one rogue teacher. Although the summary above says the school didn’t comment, other media tells a different story.

The problem is that we expect our government to do shady things. Maybe we shouldn’t, but we do.

Right, the result would be exactly the same if the situation were reversed, and she wanted to use the embryos and he didn’t. The contract would control.

Are we really seriously entertaining the notion that this guy is super-invested in these embryos (whose existence he didn’t care enough about not to sign away contractual control over them)?

Buh-buh-buh-buh-BUH, motherfucker.

Why would that change things? If he’s old enough to work, he’s old enough to go to juvenile delinquency court.

It’s too bad about her signature role being in a racist bit of Confederate apologia too.

That’s a pretty bizarre position, that giving an animal an SSRI is less kind than euthanasia. If you a) have an animal that is not releasable and b) the animal shows few or no signs of distress when medicated, why would you hold that opinion? Plenty of people take SSRIs and clearly prefer medication to death.

Because Arkansas was admitted as a state 16 years after Missouri.

Oh, cool, we’re still debating the Domino Theory in 2015.

Among other things, having explosives detonating in the waters outside your hull messes with your ability to listen to whatever you’re trying to listen to.

Literally dozens? Even a rudimentary awareness of the world around you would tell you that the ratio of punches thrown to people thrown so hard to the floor that they break teeth is not 1:1.

I thoroughly enjoy Scarlett’s Black Widow character. I enjoy her outwitting Loki in the Avengers. I like that she keeps up with the Avengers and holds her own as someone not equipped with superpowers or an exoskeleton.

I thought it was at least in part a pretty senseless point. I agree Bruce got to do a bunch of things he wouldn’t have been able to do living as a woman (although whether he would’ve been allowed to participate as a woman in the heptathelon—the nearest decathelon equivalent—in the 70’s seems doubtful).

Someone throwing a punch at you can’t be the last straw for you if your job is law enforcement. Police officers can be expected to react rationally, appropriately, and professionally when someone throws a punch. I’ve seen them do it.

A little quick googling would’ve saved you a rant.

I am very pleased that the only two likable characters in this whole mess of a show ended up together.

Depends on what orbits they’re in.
