Lowly.
Makes me glad I'm married and not having to put up with any of this dating shit. Ok, I'll have to amend that. Glad I'm married and loyal. I've never experienced dogged pursuit myself but my sister has had the experience of clearly telling guys I'm gay and in a relationship and there's no interest but we can work on…
I think that dynamic probably explains a lot of men with problems. While men as a whole have it better in this society, men as individuals might not be feeling the privilege. Most men don't have the George Clooney experience with women throwing themselves at them. Men have to initiate. You take biological desire and…
I would want to say outreach for any advocacy group is important if you don't want to just be preaching to the choir but that's a harder argument to make after a story like this.
why not? Solid state, no mechanicals to wear out. Computers become obsolete, they don't break unless there's environmental stress involved.
Ok, I think we may be hitting upon the key factor here, who gets to publicize the outrage. Because I'm thinking of the long history of... well, moral panic seems excessively negative. In the 20's we had the media going nuts over jazz cigarettes, the two great red scares. We had scandals like Fatty Arbuckle killing a…
Here's a question. That Leena Dunham person put skeevy, sister-rape stuff in her book and everyone pitched a fit. The Spanish Fly excerpt above might not have raised eyebrows in the era but it seems to fly in the face of his family guy image. Did people just not read books? I know we didn't freshly invent outrage in…
I had heard of spanish fly as a child and was equally repulsed only on account of thinking it was an actual bug. Dear God, I was right!
I'm remembering Ed Harris as the big, bad German sniper.
I couldn't stand Enemy at the Gates because it felt like they substituted a boring sniper v. sniper story with Americans playing foreigners in place of the already fascinating horror of Stalingrad. It felt like a variant of "hey, here's black people going through something but we need a white actor as the lead to feel…
The people you cover are doing marginally more harm to our country.
Then you must be blessed. Same thing happens to the wife's headphones, too.

Fuck those tips. I hate earbuds with tips. They always fall off, either in the pocket or, worse, in my ear. Terrible, terrible design. And pretty much all of them are coming this way now.

x-wing Alliance was amazing. It was as much an evolution on tie fighter as that was over x-wing.
And yet we still don't have an official release date. 2015 they say but no promises.
I haven't seen the show, hadn't heard of it until now, but am happy that they're doing the Brit thing of keeping the seasons short. 12 episodes so far. You have a bit more breathing room than in a conventional movie but aren't suffering with a bunch of padding. I hear Person of Interest is worth watching but that's 68…
Warriors and conquerors = psychos and killers. Most readers got that.
Admiring fat fucks beats admiring killers and psychopaths.
Your head canon is not bad. Really, given that tech is pretty static, the changes should be in fashion, not tech. a top line fighter a hundred years ago, maintained, should still be a contender. The tech was maxed out thousands of years ago more or less. It is like lord of the rings tech stasis.
