Sadler as Barlow and Euron as Straker makes more sense than Euron as Barlow in my opinion.

The best I can figure is that at some point King’s publishers stopped editing him. In the ‘70s he was still a midlist author who’d had unexpected success writing horror novels. But his books still clocked in at around 400 pages or so. By the ‘80s he was a massive superstar and everything he wrote went directly to #1…

My brother’s weight loss is from brain cancer and my weight loss is because I forget to eat when I’m depressed.

THIS. Choosing to be childless is still considered a huge aberration by many people, even non-religious folks. It explains why doctors are so hesitant to administer tubal ligation in young women who express no desire to have children. 

The ripple effects of this mindset go so far. Like, this is probably why my mom had to be told to stop ‘checking in’ with me about my decision not to have children. She said she only does it because she wants to make sure I don’t regret anything in my life. And that drives me nuts, because it says she doesn’t see me…

Cool. Now put Bill Cosby back in jail.

I didn’t used to be this person but war changes people and I do consider us to be at war with these people.

The New Republican Party: We Survived!

I gotta figure this is the GOPs way out of the Faustian deal they made with Trump. Go all in on anti vax and hope enough of the Trumpers die that they’re then free to reinvent themselves?

This law is such a mess, who the hell knows?  The whole purpose of the practice was to outlaw abortion in a way that the Supreme Court couldn’t overturn. It’s no wonder the law is vague and ill defined.

All the information is out there if they cared to look. Randomly I saw a a screen shot of a comment where some conservative was saying conservatives can’t win rhetorical arguments because all the data was on the side of liberals. So it’s not like they don’t know they can’t win with facts and logic, they just don’t…

He seems like such a healthy, centered man. I love interviews with him because he’s just so sane and really witty on top of it. We are all better off that he decided not to go into the priesthood.

Can only one individual sue a provider? Or are there loopholes/gaps in the Texas law that allow multiple people to sue and jack up the fines for the provider? Could that be what strikes down the law?

When I was younger and way more naive, I used to think: “If only these people understood how desperate some women can be, and how terrible the lengths they’ll go to, they wouldn’t be so against abortion.” Now, of course, I know that they genuinely don’t give a shit. But thank you, hero doctor, both for continuing to…

Lol. “Sanctity of life” they say. And yet we know God’s worst representatives on earth would never allow a minor thing like ideological coherence get in the way of violent christian fascism.

To offer it to him now would be an insult. LeVar Burton is not an also-ran, he deserved the job to begin with. 

Sounds like my parents, but my mom was always unhappy and couldn’t/wouldn’t leave. My dad couldn’t hold down a job and the only reason he didn’t end up on the streets and had healthcare is because of my mom. He only existed in my life to yell, scream, bully, and belittle me, so his parenting contributions were…

I loved that number. 

I cry through “Me and the Sky” every time. 

Saw this in 2017 when I was still dazed from Election 2016. The song where the woman pilot sings “first woman pilot for a legacy airline” (something like that) hit me HARD. My father was a career legacy pilot (for Delta)—until I saw that musical I had no idea women were flying for legacy liners. For twenty years I…
