I've never liked Ethan Hawke, he always plays some sad sack douche. He cemented it for me when I was watching a documentary on actors' approaches to Shakespeare, and he was talking about Macbeth, and his interpretation of Macbeth was just flat out WRONG. And, he didn't mention Lady Macbeth pretty much the entire time.…

Be my Valentine?

No joke, someone once told me I deserved to be paid less because I was more likely to take time off to care for my children. I don't have kids. I am not married. I'm not even in a relationship. Yet my future has been decided for me apparently, and pay inequity justified, simply because that is the norm. I don't want…

Trigger warning, please, for Christ's sake.

I imitate it as much as possible...preferably in public

NOPE! Though, a lot of people say I look like I was born a century late...so maybe?

...I...I love you...

Yeaaah, I don't think RP much cares for logic so long as his soundbytes sound appropriately bootstrapping/personal responiblity-compatible.

I reread that recently as a trip down nostalgia lane - LOATHED the main character. She was officially terrible.

Bahahahahah omg. Wow. I like the brunette's heavy eye makeup.

I wonder, since Palin and now this woman like to trot out their children as evidence of how wonderful they are for not aborting them (an, ahem, personal choice they made), are there any statistics on women/families opting for abortions after finding out they will have a child with DS or other disabilities? I feel like…

I encourage you to read up on this and educate yourself a bit:

It's sickening, honestly, to watch the repeated utter refusal to absorb what WOMEN are telling him about their personal experiences and those of the women they know, and telling them they are wrong and somehow outside of the norm.

Holy shit, you are so obtuse it is painful.

Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow dude. You so severely do not understand rape. It's a murky subject with many, but holy shit this answer scares the hell out of me. Getting verbal consent is simply responsible and considerate, and it's a bit baffling to me that you would think it's ridiculous to get…

Aha! That's where it's from. I read it recently and loved it, and clearly that quote stuck with me and I couldn't place it.

HA! Oh don't even ATTEMPT that line of reasoning with me. It's been pretty well documented that men are most often killed by men, and women are most often killed by men. I know you'll shrug that off with "where's the proof???" but a simple search for statistics as documented by the UN and a variety of other sources…
