More Gloria, yeah! Don't care much about Poussey and Taystee (yeah yeah I know it's blasphemy apparently) but I want to know more about Gloria's backstory. And Alex's there for like 2 seconds? Disappointing. Still, can't wait.

Well there's Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore. That was in 1974. There's also The Age of Innocence, in 1993. As far as I can tell, that's about it. I don't think Scorses find female characters to be that interesting (at least recently), not in comparison to straight white male characters anyway.
I'm not sure that the best way to show how awful traders and the financial world are is to build a 3 hour long monument about Jordan Belfor, who is being played by Hollywood superstar Leonardo DiCaprio. Because Scorcese is clearly fascinated by the crazy lifestyle Jordan Belfort and all the traders live in? Why would…
Yes, it's hard to "read" her tone in the interview but she sounds pissed off about both the show and the book even though the show creators have made it abundantly clear that they took liberties with the book because that's what fiction and telling a story are all about. As for the book, as you said, nothing she said…
So the American government lied therefore all governments lie all the time, is that your point? And yes I call people paranoid because that's what they are. You're American and you have it in your DNA to apparently distrust your government (cultural and historical reasons, etcetera) I get it. I'm European and I don't…
Because countries are complex and full of contradictions? Because countries are inhabited by people who are complex and full of contradictions? I don't know a single country that's perfect on every single issue.
The French authorities have said that all the DNA tests will be destroyed afterwards (except the one of the eventual rapist of course) so there'll be no biometric data left after the investigation is closed. And no, I don't think they're lying but I do think a lot of people have read 1984 way too many times and are…
Godwin point reached! You must be so proud.
I read too fast. Still. His other comments stand. And I've apparently offended Jared Leto's fan club. Yes, Leto has done tons of stuff: hanging out with Terry Richardson, making stupid comments about transgendered people, what a wonderful guy, as opposed to me who does nothing with my life of course. He's truly an…
This. Before the Oscars, he claimed that he knew what transgendered people experience just because he spoke to some of them in order to prepare for his role. Recently he said that some of his straight friends had started to call themselves "queer" and that he didn't mind being called "queer" because he identifies with…
I was disappointed by Mad Men premiere but thank god for Veep. The show always delivers and always assumes its audience is smart and able to get the references.
"What amazes me is that the general public is continually amazed when people who get paid theminimum legally allowed wage aren't the smartest, politest, most professional people around".
Jesus, nobody is saying that having "big mama" written on your order is nice but suing Subway because of it?? You know the saying "only in America"? This, right there, would only happen in America, you can be sure of it. In other countries, people would just shrug it off and go on with their lives because they're not…
You're right. I like your perspective on this: "The others are with you for a time and a reason, and that's okay". I'm going to look forward to the new doors opening, the new experiences. Still, change is always stressful.
Me too. I'm 27 and none of my friends have kids. But they want to and I don't. Once they become parents, I'm guessing they'll have less time to hang out, travel the world or just stay up until 3am eating pizza while watching tv. There'll be a shift in their priorities and inevitably I'm afraid we'll have less and less…
I know there are differences but it's mainly due to the accent (and yes some expressions that are unlikely to show up in the lyrics of the song), something you can't hear when people sing. Also, it's the same singer who sings boh versions and frankly it's not like Québéquois wouldn't be able to understand the French…
Yep, a French AND a French Canadian versions? Like, what's the difference, seriously? And it's the same fucking singer in both versions. That's just silly.
French, English, Portuguese are lingua franca in a lot of African countries where, in a single country, there may be dozens of languages spoken. I'm more suprised to see there's no Arabic version. Middle East/North Africa is a huge market so that's strange. Maybe they didn't include it in the video?
Is it that bad to have preferences about the race of the kid you want to adopt though? I'm asking because if I were to adopt (unlikely since I'm pretty sure I don't want kids), well, I'd prefer to adopt a kid who looks like me and that means white. The same way, if a black/asian family wanted to only adopt a…
