Another 100 years for the abortion debate might be on the optimistic side.

Nope. She just doesn't do it for me.

Hmm. I just can't get myself to like Noomi Rapace, no matter what the film or role.

Precisely. It's a royal penis. You don't just encounter those every day.

This one is such a winner, he couldn't even figure out how exactly his district here in IL is mapped. He actually rented in office in my wee little suburb and had half set up shop before he figured out that we weren't part of it and then he bailed.

- Lindy, I already loved you a lot, but your bolded "God" is just too priceless.

The Arrested Development anticipation is KILLING ME.

Indeed, she should speak for herself.

Precisely. This article originally made the comparison actually: http://www.npr.org/blogs/therecord/2012/08/21/159559500/taylor-swift-princess-of-punk Kelly just... owned it better.

Why thank you.

Truth! I still love Say My Name like nobody's business.

Imma let you finish, but "Since You've Been Gone" was one of the best pop break-up songs of all time. (That's actually how I feel, but I also just couldn't resist.)

Well, I myself wouldn't be shocked since I had very much the same experience clinic escorting all through college. Same group of protestors every Saturday for four years - horrible, horrible people.

That's really the perfect way of putting it.

I like how it concluded with the word "compassion." The sheer level of cognitive dissonance in cases like this astounds me. You think forcing a rape victim to carry a resulting pregnancy to term is compassion? And shaming gays is the epitome of compassionate.

I hadn't noticed that one - which is the only one that would effect me, funnily enough.

I understand that it's debatable if strip clubs contribute to rape culture. But we also pay "sin taxes" in IL on just about everything else that has a stigma attached to it, including soda, candy, and a recent $1 per pack hike on cigarettes to keep Medicaid solvent. Those kinds of links are implied with every other…

I shall have to investigate this; it's not already in my library.

How did I manage to banish Ted Leo from my brain until just now?! I used to worship that dude!

Melissa Leo has always struck me as a little loopy. I think she tends to run off at the mouth sometimes. I may have that turn of phrase totally wrong too. (The past 5 hours of nonstop database work ate away at my language skills.)
