So many people in the comments complaining about the Supergirl origin story that we see glimpses of in this first look trailer. People already predicting the failure of the show and that this will be the end of female super hero movies.

So I read this great joke on Tumblr. In involves Coulson finally calling up Tony Stark and saying, “Oh hey, I’m alive. Also, I need a hand.”

I would have liked to see a bit more development regarding Skye, Cal, and Jiaying as a family throughout this season (or the rather, the drama and issues that perhaps have prevented them from being a family as Cal wants them to be ), as well as showing more of the effect Hydra’s experiments had on Jiaying other than…

My guess is it’s left over from the Soviet era, which had amazing maternity leave. My mom took 6 paid months, maybe longer, then a year unpaid, at which point you could get your unpaid leave extended if you wanted to. My mom chose to go back to work part time for another couple years.

And she gets slammed whenever she actually does something with her agenda. Make school lunches healthier- our kids aren’t eating this healthy food, which is totally your fault (I just saw the new options in my old high school under these reforms- WAAAY better than the shit they served when I was there). Let’s Move-…

Oh my God!!! Batman and Robin may actually be in for it this time!!! There’s no way they can get out of this!!!

It still seems low. I’m a ‘80 baby and even growing up in the deep south I would have bet more of my peers were ok with pre-marital sex than against it. I wonder how many of people answered what they think they are supposed to answer?

What a fucking world when a con artist spawns a sociopathic torturer and claims to be the harbinger of a return to ‘family values.’

That would involve inheriting boatloads of that sweet environment raping cash. The only thing Huckabee’s kids are likely to inherit is diabetes.

Most of these questions could be answered in one simple way; the show is crime noir and that’s how the genre works. In crime noir, you don’t sneak back into the city by cab or sensible rental car. You sneak in through the docks like how Fish did. The good guys always do horrible things in the name of justice and…

Make it so number.......ooops, wrong show. But omg that would be awesome. I could definitely use some Kate Stewart being badass every week.

I said this very thing the instant Kate Stewart showed up in Power of Three. And for the exact same reasons.

I hear where you’re coming from. It’s important to remember though, that violent crime really was terrifyingly high in those days. I used to work with a guy who grew up in South L.A. who told me that back in the ‘90s, if you saw some guys driving slowly down the street in a convertible, you ran for your life. If you…

I’m old. Yes your recollection is completely correct. This had enormous bipartisan support at the time. We thought it would be good. It’s much like No Child Left Behind was signed into law by Bush but with Ted Kennedy and other Dems beaming behind him. In 2001 it seemed like a really good thing.

I don’t know, but the woman has a lot of odd, baseless negativity thrown her way, and little of it seems to be actually connected to anything she actively did or her capability for the future. I mean, the GOP candidates shift their opinions with the wind, but somehow it’s a scandal that she used to have opinions that…

To be fair it was 1992 and no damn liberal was getting elected president without supporting that tough on crime nonsense. It’s not like there was another option that didn’t involve expanding the police state. Heck they only actually got in there because Perot split the conservative ticket.

You know quite well there’s nothing “puzzling” about the move. She wants to appeal to the current issues and the current political climate. If you want politicians to continue to do so, you should offer them praise when they take the stances we’ve been asking them to take, not immediately go on righteous rants about…

Not real sure how Hillary also gets credit/blame for Bill, but okay. Anyway, this is from yesterday:

I tip at Chipotle. It makes me feel a little better about the sheer amount of food I’m about to put into my body.

At the risk of sounding like a Clinton defender, weren’t a lot of people on board with the whole “three strikes and you’re out” policy in the mid-1990s? Everyone knows now that it’s a fucking awful policy that exacerbates inequalities in the judicial system but I seem to remember that it had bipartisan support back in…
