One can't help but wonder how Whoopi and Rosie are faring with each other off camera. Rosie seemed to be Beverly Johnson's lone voice of support here.

I don't think we can ever underestimate the number of white people who don't know that white privilege is a thing. For those of us who run around in fairly liberal circles, it's such an obvious given, but there's a whole population out there who honestly think that all of black peoples' problems went away when Lincoln…

Ridiculous. Barbara Bowman made it very clear that she has never received any money from Bill Cosby (i.e., she didn't receive any cash from that settlement) and never will, since the statute of limitations has run out on her case (she claims to have been raped when she was 17). FYI, I'm pretty sure that's Bowman on…

Who played the hot Russian gangster Mooney tied up tonight? He looks so familiar, but I couldn't find him on the IMDB.

This little girl is amazing. Now can we find some better songs for her to dance to? (Sorry, but ... hm.)

Hate this movie. Always hated it. Always thought that Forrest was a passive zero who elicited admiration because he didn't have the capability to think while the rest of us are overthinking EVERYTHING because THOUGHT is somehow BAD, and how all liberals are supposed to realize that the non-thinkers were right all…

Who is Rob Delaney and where do I sign up to have all his babies?

If true, this account is really sad, but .... NOT THE KID'S FAULT. And given the realities of poverty, I can't even find too much ire for her family in all of this. I can only hope that they're being smart with the money they're making while it lasts.

Dick Cheney no longer has any authority. But when he was calling the shots, he was absolutely fighting the war overseas; he was just doing it from his desk in the US. Are you really under the impression that a soldier in Iraq or Afghanistan could look a Commanding Officer in the face and say, "My personal values don't…

Let's not conflate the actions of our soldiers with the motivations of our politicians. Like it or not, our nation needs a military force willing to risk their lives on command. It all works great if we only strike when legitimately threatened, but when it's not working, it's the fault of those who issue the commands,…

Were Fig's motivations ever spelled out like that? It's possible that in 13 hours of the show, I missed it - but what I saw was a woman who hated her job and had no regard for the women in her care (note her response when the B-dorm started overflowing with human feces).

I thought it was going to go that way, but I agree with Sarah J - the Fig storyline allowed the writers to introduce you to someone who SHOULD be behind bars but won't be; she's too connected.

Does Figueroa have a "saving grace," or did Karma just serve her up her just desserts? I totally expected Fig to be an INMATE next season the way things were going, and yet (yes) she technically lost her job, but in essence "got away" with all of that stuff - yet another comment on privilege and how there are a lot of…

OMG I would do a thousand dishes if someone managed my kitty litter for me.

OMG I CAN SEE HER SHOULDER. MUST RAPE SOMETHING NOW.

And, as at least a dozen have said before me ... all these things you point out that the test fails to do? No one but you ever suggested that the test do any of them. It's a measure - one among many - of the double standard that exists in popular culture's stories and storytelling, and it reveals something - not…

You rock. And you're far more patient than me.

You know what? You don't like it. You don't get it. Fine. Some of us think it's useful to note these things. We're not going to convince you. That's fine, too.

"Here's the thing: It's really hard to be outraged about these men going to great lengths to bulk up and lean down, even while reading about the dangerous health risks and blatant exploitation and objectification, because I LOVE IT. I LOVE IT SO MUCH."

I'm not saying that the only thing that keeps me from running around and raping people is because I don't like the "rapist" label. And while I'm not a social scientist, I believe that very few of us cast ourselves as the villain in our story. I believe that most rapists rape because they believe that their victims a)…
