Though I have never been so utterly gutted by a television show in my life, it did help me make this realization....

But things ARE changing- people are buying more and more guns every day.

He’s making a really big mistake here. The American people, generally, have very short memories. Spending this bullet in May means that by the time the summer rolls around it’s going to sound like old news and he’s going to sound like a lunatic if he keeps repeating it - it’s a one-note attack, it feels vaguely sexist…

That cover is trash. Dispose of it properly.

It's called a Boulevardier. Also try the same with sturdy Jamaican rum—called a Kingston Negroni. Cheers!

This might sound weird but kudos to the officer for proceeding correctly and with respect to the gentleman singing. After all the killings of mentally ill people by cops, this guy should be training his fellow officers.

Very nice, very nice. These Friday articles are great.

I agree with you about this law, but a fixed, immutable identity is clearly not a necessary attribute for a class to be protected by hate crimes legislation. The obvious example is religion, which is universally enumerated in such legislation. Nor should being “born this way” be required for sexual orientation, gender…

“Hi, I’m Peter Dinklage” :D

I think we’ve all realized that Taylor Swift is the real life Regina George.

A friend of mine is on the list of winners! Yay! She rocks and deserves all the awards!

I think the larger issues that make “recoloring” black actors more problematic is that there are relatively none or few in these films to whom such does not happen, while there are plenty of white actors who aren’t “recolored” in the same films. There’s Quill and many other white characters in Guardians; there are…

“it seems like the same idea as serial killers, like they can’t keep their exploits quiet and that’s how they get caught.”

Jesus, Bobby. That WebMD link. Gold on a Monday.

I get the sense we got to keep that character far longer than originally intended because the actress did such a great job with the part. I was impressed with how they managed to keep her in the story (in an interesting way) for so long. And, yeah, that was heartbreaking.

Not lying, I yelled at my TV after what happened on the Americans. It probably needed to happen for the plot, there was no way to extricate her from the situation she was in, but god damn if they didn’t make that as heartbreaking as possible. That actress should be in way, way more things.
