Yeah, but they’re using it in the same sense that black people call each other the N-word; they’re “taking it back.” The term was meant to be derogatory.

“Yeah, when are Christians finally gonna get accepted in America?”

That has nothing to do with anything, its either disrespectful or its not, end of story.

Of course Christians aren’t persecuted in the U.S., but there’s also the “don’t be a dick” creed that more of us should live by. I like headlines that are witty, not designed to be shitty. 

I’m not even a Christian and that headline still irks me. Mocking someone’s religion isn’t a great look. 

It should be noted in this article that Chris Thile was also a performer here, and is an incredible mandolinist. Also, Punch Brothers are SO GOOD.

So fucking weird that we have to add into our evaluations of celebrities whether or not we would vote for them. I wouldn’t vote for him because he’s not a politician, but he seems like an alright guy to me. I could never kill anything, but I like shooting guns too. (There are plenty of us who aren’t nut jobs, fwiw.)…

I say this as a lifelong liberal Democrat, but if politics is so stained that we need EVERYONE we like to be just like us, it’s far worse than I ever imagined. I’m old enough to remember when you weren’t automatically a lunatic if you leaned a bit conservative. If Chris Pratt was the worst kind of conservative in the…

FFS, that’s their JOB to act flirty during a press tour. That’s what the world wants to see. Maybe he banged her, maybe he didn’t, but to label him as a douche over baseless horseshit like that is some National Enquirer-level dipshittery.

Everything she says has been aged in oak barrels.

Good news for fans of science fiction’s greatest f-bomber, Chrisjen Avasarala.

Prime Lorca died from a rare disease. So his father crossed over to the mirror universe and stole Mirror Lorca as a baby. This imbalance has caused the problems with the mycelium network and many freakish or “fringe” events are occurring in both universes. Lorca’s dad also did experiments on Michael Burnham and Paul…

It’s hard to have Faith in humanity with people like him alive.
