One of my big issues with Bernie is that he’s talking about a political revolution and all the things that need to happen, and it’s not just that he doesn’t seem to have a viable plan from the White House level, he’s not even helping to get other progressives elected in order to get this done. The president is the…

And you can switch your registration- my mom did to vote for Bernie because she’s a Republican but thinks all the Republican candidates are insane and she likes his “shake it up” plans.

ahhh. I have only seen the series.

yeah..... but I’d like to pretend that didn’t happen.

I think this is a situation where doing research and delving into the life of Nina Simone would have revealed that they were terribly unqualified to make this film and should probably pass off the job of writing/directing/casting to someone who knew what they were talking about.

Honestly, I only watched one episode Ghost in the Shell because I spent literally the entire time going “Why is she wearing a bathing suit? Does she know she’s not appropriately dressed for police work? There’s no way a bikini bottom cut that high is not wedgying itself directly into her vagina.”

My boyfriend and I were talking about this last night- just because the characters look white, doesn’t mean they’re meant to be white.

^^THIS.

I listened to the first couple of episodes and then was like “meh.”

I told the bride that I wouldn’t be able to make most of the events, but all individually (out of town that day, we have a Professional Development, grandmother’s birthday, whatever).

yep. You buy the bride a bunch of trashy/sexy lingerie and then drink wine and (at at least one that I went to) watch her try it on.

Also- that picture with him- her eyes look dead inside.

Kevin Bacon starred in Crazy, Stupid, Love with Julianne Moore, who had a recurring role on 30 Rock, which also featured Kim Kardashian as a guest star.

I also don’t love Grant Morrison.

I don’t know that white people can’t necessarily tell the stories of people of color, just as I know talented men can tell women’s stories and get it right.

My boyfriend and I have talked about getting married, and I want to marry him, but the wedding just seems.... exhausting. I kind of want to elope but I know my mother (and his) would never forgive us, and he wants a traditional tux/dress/nice venue wedding.

I”m picturing a bearded fat man covered in animal furs gesturing to his betrothed daughter and shouting to the assembled townsfolk: “Look upon our gold and jewels! Feast upon the fatted calves!”

Yep. I’m not married/engaged, but I’m the girlfriend of a best man this summer.

My brother got married about 6 years ago. He and his wife had a small, slightly rushed because of law school schedules ceremony at her mother’s church, a potluck reception provided by her family (no drinking because Baptists) and then a small after-party with our family at the small, but nice, hotel bar where they…

Oh man, the new Dear Prudence is THE SHIT.
