Yeah, she really needs to get together with Ben Carson and Allen West. They could have their own show of idiots.

I agree. The only reason why I even SAT through that fricking movie was to watch Adam Beach. He was amazing.

Either that, or her neighborhood just burned down.

Apparently she had fairly decent grandparents. Not available in this case, unfortunately.

But at least we weren't subjected to a photo of him doing a yoga pose on his fucking countertop. #notallbaldwins

Well, all my traditional "famous people" meet and greets (and there have been many), from movie stars to rock stars and poets, have been depressingly conventional, but I have an incredibly embarrassing story from the time I met Alison Bechdel at a women's music festival in the 1990s:

Thank you for reminding me about Tinkerbell! I loved that shit when I was a little kid.

YES! Everyone in my junior high had them in the 70s; we wore the big ones around our necks. What flavor you picked sort of defined your popularity level.

Well, that is good news indeed!

Yeah, isn't she the one who went on the "Jesus and Santa are both white!" shit?

Yes, and I find that exact phenomenon that you are describing to be endemic to conservatives and Republicans (and Libertarians). They are only empathic and progressive on a specific issue if it affects them or their immediate family personally (I call it "Dick Cheney/Rob Portman Syndrome"). Like the politician who…

But I thought the number one Google search for the Southern states was "free gay porn"?

Hopefully A LOT less creepy?

I agree with you 100%, and think our sadly white-controlled NY school district handles it in a predictably pathetic pro-forma way, but I figure it's better than nothing. I grew up in Montana in the 7os and 80s and there was NOTHING from anyone in any class that wasn't white and Western. Knowing that they're at least…

Yeah, I agree, because I visited a lot of friends on their respective college campuses all over the country, but Dartmouth was the scariest for me to spend time at as a freshman female. It was my college's spring break, the week before Dartmouth's spring break, and every woman there was warning me against setting a…

I love Gina Torres (I've seen her a bit in, I think, "Firefly"?), but just watching the advertisements/trailers/commercials for this leave me with mixed feelings. Her character looks so awesome, but the plots and drama seem so stupid. So the guy didn't go to Harvard Law; just can him already? How much longer can…

I got so, so, furious just looking at the screen crawl for this news; if I had to read one more dude put up the Facebook comment "So Joel Grey is gay, who gives a shit?", I was seriously going to punch my laptop screen.

I keep thinking that the FANS should be allowed to put the time down as community service; that shit has to be TOUGH to get through.

I remember BAngieB!! Yes, she was ferocious abut defending La Lohan.

Well written, well researched piece, so thanks. I went to college in the mid-80s, and did tons of research to ensure that I was attending a college that had zero frats and sororities, because that culture did not appeal to me at all.
