Meanwhile, people are starting to die after taking Trump’s advice about chloroquine.

My parents discovered I was gay at the end of my senior year of high school, right before graduation. My father beat me nearly unconscious and I literally ran out of the house with only the clothes I was wearing. I snuck back in twice to get some things, but it barely amounted to a suitcase’s worth of stuff.

I stayed…

Don’t forget Miss Fischer’s Murder mysteries. Its lots of fun and the lead actress just kills it in the role.

If anyone wants a really good documentary, covering rarely trod turf, I highly recommend “IMPOSSIBLE PEACE,” an 8-part, thoroughly global look at the years BETWEEN 1919 and 1939. If you study - or watch endless documentaries on - WWI or WWII, this deep dive explains so much more than what those offer. This is chock…

Elections are run by states, Trump has no power over them. Besides that, if there is no election, his term expires in January, along with every member of the House and a good chunk of GOP senators. We have Dem governors in enough states to put the GOP in the minority, and based on the line of succession, and assuming…

Dude, I know! But Christ on a cracker, with this mention of something like this.....in the Hollywood Lore, it makes perfect fucking sense.

Well, we’ll see what it’s worth, because the airlines are now coming for $50 billion in bailouts. They’ve been raking in profits for some time now (pretty much all of which went to stock buybacks), but now say they won’t make it to the end of the year without taxpayer assistance.

I chime in with a
“Haven’t you people ever heard of closing a goddamn store?”

So apparently Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson have just tested positive for coronavirus.

Yo, anybody remember the short story “The Masque of the Red Death”? Your health is only as secure as the least-cared-for member of your society.

“Allowing”? Sorry but this kind of gatekeeping wokeness isn’t helping the arts, on the contrary. And you read the interview, the filmmaker didn’t swoop in there with a massive budget and has struggled to get work. That’s how most documentary filmmakers, white or not, live and work. I have a friend who’s a filmmaker,…

The criminal justice system is utterly unconcerned with protecting or assisting victims. It is solely concerned with producing punishment for offenses against law and order. The end product the criminal justice system is designed to manufacture is convictions. Victims are just an input in that process, to be used and…

Same, I’ve been a vegetarian for over a decade now and it has never made sense to me to treat meat like I’m allergic to it. I’ve even picked it off things and I’m sure I’ve eaten sauces that contain animal broth in restaurants that don’t think about it (esp. back in the day). I understand that someone might not like…

Vegetarian here, 100% side with BK. IMHO it's up to the person to ensure food the food is meat-free/it's unrealistic to think veggie foods from any place that isn't strictly vegetarian has no "cross-contamination". 

If you do read her, start with her earliest ones — Where Are the Children? and A Stranger Is Watching. Granted, I haven’t read them since junior high (early 80s), but they were soooo good, I was hooked. Stayed up until the wee hours sweating with suspense. But then the last ten years or so, they started to get on my…

As a white person, I can never understand how important seeing yourself represented in smart shows like “Living Single“ was, but I’ve often thought about how weird it is that there was a period in the mid 90s where there were quite a few shows with all black or mostly black casts, and then 2000 hit and that shit just…

Dear Tennessee,

Because those who say things like that guy said secretly hope to keep having children when they get a new younger woman

I nominate Amber Ruffin to start hosting all the things.
