So she risked her life caring for a highly contagious patient and took measures to make sure her travel was approved by the CDC. What else can we ask of her?

Ooh, ooh, I love the genderize-random-objects-and-concepts game! Let's play!

I already had this book on my to-read list, but after reading the author's response letter, it's been bumped way up the list.

And with some people who sit outside the gender binary taking "they" are their own preferred personal pronoun, we may be seeing an increasing acceptance (or rather re-acceptance) of "they" as a singular pronoun.

Well, if you continue to use "My parents don't let me take calls from strangers" in response to unwanted advances, I'm pretty sure it would get them to back off quick.

Starred for the Sparks snark.

I'm a fan of the "Oh, sorry, I'm actually really sick and don't want to give it to you" as an excuse to back away. If they persist, you can always cough in their face and freak them out.

Both my grandmothers have received these scam calls. Luckily neither of them fell for this grandchild-on-vacation-and-in-trouble premise because they generally are very up-to-date on their grandkids' lives.

This GIF... my body is PREST.

But everyone knows women are only allowed to live their lives in 12-minute intervals before checking on the immediate needs of strange men!!

Damn, and I thought I was picky for wanting a non-smoker with a job who isn't allergic to my cat.

You can CAN two sodas a day if you open your own low-efficiency soda factory!

Yeah, between this interview and the segment a week or so ago about catcalling with Jessica Williams, they are KILLING IT.

As other commenters have already pointed out, Black Jack Randall is not gay. He's a violent sadist and rapist who targets men, women, and children without any real preference (though he does seem to have a fixation on Jamie, but I think that has much more to do with the fact that Jamie defied/escaped him than…
