I agree that the French model is pretty much the ideal balance, but NHS is so much better than here in the US. Until you've lived here a few years without insurance you simply can't appreciate European health systems. Even WITH insurance, it's often an unbearable slog to deal with the medical complex. I'm not…

Yeah. It's depressing to hear the very helpful suggestions from everyone here about how to talk to your doc, work with the ER, payment plans, etc. because these are all demoralizing, demeaning runarounds that are completely unnecessary. All this paperwork, all these exceptions, all these programs amount to a huge…

And the life expectancy and infant mortality numbers? Yawowza, whatta pair!

"The evolution of economic inequality allowed societies to grow and diversify to the point where tribal hierarchy and the enslaving demands of scarcity could be abolished."

This makes sense to me, and what I got from this is essentially that globalization will have to be more or less complete before we can once again start treating each other decently on a macro scale. My logic is as follows:

"malingering & vague fortune-cookie like symptoms has more to do with drug usage than actually chemical imbalances within the brain."

"The US is the only developed country where the government does not negotiate or control drug prices"

I agree. It's got to be tough call whether to soften up reception to official photos with leaks or vice versa. In any case, I hope Nolan isn't bothering about this kind of crap.

That will be happening, too, but this is kind of like Greedo shooting first. they're fucking up characters that people love and are doing so in a particularly regressive and easily avoidable manner.

I agree with you, and with DC that parents should monitor their kids' media. One of my best friend's son is eagerly awaiting his 9th birthday, becuase then his dad has said he can watch the sequel to his favorite movie- Star Wars!

It's not about the costume, which has always been tarty, and in Starfire's case kind of adorably so IMHO. It's about her randomly fucking whoever's lying around and not remembering their names, and how this was done. It was entirely "for the guys" with no motivation or even real interest from the character herself,…

Shannon is the only thing I've heard or seen so far that screams of awesomeness, and it does so from high rooftops.

I dearly hope it won't be long until this editorial team leaves or gets the boot from WB or whatever.

From what I've heard, it's almost all in major keys, and I think you've got something with the elliptical patterns. We enjoy the sensation of something swinging back on us, and those musical patterns are rewarding to me in the same way that a swingset is when you're on your way back down from the highest point- where…

I would trade the next two IOS updates and whatever comes with them for a 160GB iPhone.

You just had little else to add? I never let that stop me.

These are stunning, and make me want to see the film again.

About the size of what?

She's good at that.

Yes, something like this would have been vastly preferable to simply applying CG to the '80's cartoon designs and concepts, and might even still have made the crazy bank. Maybe it would have even done BETTER business because they're just as cute, but much less annoying!
