Trying to shame her for these things is ludicrous.

Because for 98% or so of the population it provides a good way to help narrow down someone’s identity.

I’ve been on Ravelry for ten years. Their discussion boards are huge. The boards on the main page are yarn-related, but that’s maybe only half the content. They have huge groups about pretty much any topic imaginable. (I haven’t been to the boards in a while, but I used to be in groups for favorite novels, Stacey…

I dislike him for the same reason I dislike Beto O’Rourke. He’s just some dude with no qualifications, no notable successes, and no big policy idea, just like, I’m young white and goodlooking for a politician, I could be president, right?

Very agree on Amy Adams. The only name on the list that made me go...: AMY ADAMS???

Really annoying that people keep including good and correct activist with the acting range of a plank of wood Emma Watson.

Minor protests department: Michael B Jordan is a good character actor cursed with leading man looks. Angelina…

Goddamn Amy Adams busted her backside with dinner theater in Boulder.  She can act, she can sign, she shouldn’t be on the list but problem is she’s been in too much so definitely some stinkers in her archive but overall she’s solid

AGREED. Even early in her career. Her performance in Junebug still haunts me. There was plenty of shitty acting in that movie, but she captured the hope and tragedy of Ashley brilliantly.

Amy Adams should not be on this list and she should have won an Oscar for Enchanted!

Not true. The death toll noted in Into Thin Air was due to a combination of factors but an actual hostile mountain was one of them, as were some trail issues. Some of those folks would have died even without the backlog.

He died doing what he loved: experiencing hypothermia and pulmonary edema, confused, unable to breathe, feeling his pulse plummeting, and falling down in a place where his body may never be recovered. But on the other hand, he did put a lot of other people’s lives at risk in the process. So there’s that. 

It turns out people spending more time in “the death zone” is leading to more deaths. No one could have seen this coming...

I imagine part of the allure of climbing Everest was not just it being the highest point on Earth yet the now antiquated belief that so few people could actually do it.

I attended Sarah Lawrence from 2006-2010. There was definitely a problem with non-students hanging around campus all the time and/or straight up living in the dorms. My freshmen year roommate had her non-student boyfriend live in our small dorm room with us for about half of the school year, and she wasn’t the only…

I went to a small community college and I wouldn’t have known all my classmates. I’ve run into people who were there at the same time as me and even in actual classes with me and we didn’t know each other.

“By leaving out Marcus’s relationship to Sarah Lawrence, Marcus and his co-author, James Walsh make an omission that makes a complicated story difficult to fully understand.”

New York disclosed the co-author’s affiliation in a press release

I don’t get it, Sarah Lawrence. An ex-con who is not a student living ON CAMPUS in a dorm with young men and women, and campus officials didn’t see the potential huge problems with that? How could the Dean not know or care about the obvious safety issues? How did the Dean think the students felt about having to…

I used to manage a salon three blocks from here, and this is legit a WEIRD part of the UWS, a mix of working and middle class people who’ve been there since the late 60's/early 70s, heavy on the fixed income, Birkenstock, granola-crunchy vibe, mixed with the OBSCENELY WEALTHY. For the most part, they peacefully…

A white supremacist with yellow fever. He’s clearly had an Asian fetish for a long time. I’m guessing he found a nice Filipino mail order bride and moved to the Philippines to avoid having to interact with annoying white women who want to have things like opinions and rights.

“I am obviously not a white supremacist. I go for days without seeing another white face,” he told me. “I put up with racial problems similar to that of colored people in the 1960s, the black people of the 1970s, the African Americans of the 1980s, the people of color of the 1990s, and I am not sure what the…
