Why does she need to say anything? Why do we immediately turn to the closest woman and burden her with the responsibility of answering for some shitty man’s actions? Why does it always bounce back on women?

I just didn’t think the straight guys made much of an effort. If the show had chosen men who were trying hard and just needed lessons/help, OK. But instead it focused on total schlubs who didn’t bother to do the basic adult things (clean the bathroom, have a grown-up apartment, etc) because they had had someone take…

Agreed. After all, wasn’t one of the things that made Roseanne stand out the fact that it more closely resembled a real family than what was normally shown on TV? So it was popular because people related to it and it wasn’t an escape from reality. Seems like complaining that the show is going to deal with real life is…

You know what, that seems legit though. Because Roseanne was always about working class people with huge familial divides, and Darlene was ALWAYS the sassy liberal arts kid. That Roseanne and Dan got conned into voting for a dude who said he’d “Make America Great Again” and bring back jobs and all that other bullshit…

Real talk: Is it surprising at all that a working class family on TV that was proudly portrayed as being white trash are being depicted by Hollywood people as Trump supporters?

Being that I literally live in the same geographic area that the “Roseanne” series is set in, I can attest that a white family with their financial demographic in this area voted Trump.

While possibly in the minority, I am a fan of WW. It works for me anyway.

You know what sucks? Besides the obvious. That even if trump gets kicked out of office and publicly ruined, all this shit has been put out there and exposed for the world to see. If the world was a neighborhood, we’re the family whose dad went outside jerked himself off and then took a huge dump on his next door…

I bet that cookie is poisoned.

Well, gosh. He couldn’t have just injured his wife. He could’ve also injured someone like a cop that would have actually gotten him sent to prison for life. I am at the end of my rope with DV cases. If men did what they did to their intimate female partners to strangers, they would face serious penalties- no question,…

I agree-ish, but I’d walk on eggshells around HR. Don’t forget that HR is there first and foremost for the company. If LW is in a temp position this could backfire and not get her in the running for a permanent position or just be let go. I think depression can be categorized as a disability (?) so it might be illegal…

To be fair, that’s probably the kind of thing she’d been told by a utility before. One month I got a water bill that was five times more than usual. (No, it wasn’t because of averaging.) I called and instead of first thinking there had been a mistake, the utility suggested I had maybe “done a little more laundry” that…

There aren’t even that many LBGTI movies full stop that are just...movies...and don’t strictly deal with ‘serious’/confronting LGBTI issues. It’s frustrating, because I don’t want to be ‘confronted’ in order to see non-heterosexual characters on screen.

They’re not remotely similar. I admire a sports star because of what they can do in a game. And I have fave actresses because I like their movies or shows. But a royal is less than a Kardashian. They say Kim K is famous for nothing. But she has a hit show and a perfume. The royals are famous for being born into a…

It’s frustrating that so often, many of the people who need it most—members of vulnerable populations who are having the shittiest year—don’t get access to it. They don’t get to see themselves in these stories.

Guys, you are claiming Sam Smith is dating Michael Flynn. Like “I’d be in jail” Michael Flynn.
He’s dating Brandon Flynn.

I have a unique enough name. If you did a Google image search for just my first name, I’m in the first row of results. If you type my first name in to Facebook, I’m the first to show up. I’ve already had guys I’ve rejected or ignored on OK Cupid stalk me by finding me on Facebook and then showing up to events they…

It’s not rewriting history. Gravity Falls isn’t real. The events depicted in it did not happen.

How is a bit role in a cartoon show “history”? This wasn’t some historical event between world leaders, this was a one-off joke for a kid’s show. There’s no grave importance here in keeping everything in tact, but this bit in a show for kid’s does seem really fucked up in retrospect, and the creator is totally within…

Jesus Christ, guys, nobody’s painting over the Mona Lisa here. They’re taking him out of a cartoon. We haven’t gone full Orwellian just yet.
