He wasn’t even that good in The Night Manager. The rest of the cast blew me away, they were so good. He brought down the whole production, I didn’t buy him as a night manager and certainly not as a suddenly psycho super spy. And I found his gait super annoying! Walk like a normal person, ffs!

And on television, as in life, it is almost never the ones you’d want to see.

How a guy reacts to the concept of my having a period has turned out to be a fantastic litmus test for whether I want him in my life.

You mean cockroaches and rats, Yes?

What gives people the idea that scientists are the richest? There are literally billionaire oil tycoons telling us this, and you believe them? No. The “ivory towers” are occupied by the anti-science folks like Trump. Tell us how your dumb myth is so persistent.

So... We’re calling Angela Merkel a liberal now? Because that really feels weird to us europeans.

No. My worst week was loosing my unborn child through ‘god’s will’ as my lovely aunt put it so nicely, then almost loosing my wife, THEN finding out that was our only shot at kids.... then being told her hospital stay wasn’t covered under insurance because it wasn’t technically a room since we were in an outpatient…

You mean he couldn’t even identify Gowron as the leader of the Klingon High Council? 

I’ve never understood people’s obsession with the Olympics. It’s basically a bunch of people who’ve already won the genetic/financial lottery competing in pointless activities to see who is the most special. If they ever decide to do a publicized wold competition between a bunch of science nerds trying to cure cancer,…

in which one of the USA’s olympic rowers asks y’all to stop talking about this aspect of the Rio games:

That dress has a great cut.

What better nickname is there for the right’s favorite imaginary friend?

Right, zoos are just the main groups actively involved in animal conservation. But what do you really care about that? Oh right, you don’t care.

I never thought I’d say this - go Leo. Check ingredients. There’s no need to keep using palm oil as ubiquitously as corn syrup. Harvesting it destroys so much habitat.

I’d be more inclined to praise Turkey if they weren’t also attempting to suppress the Kurds (both in their country and in Syria).

This is not a “new trend”; this was part of a study. Do you need it? No, because it’s not SOP and babies are surviving, but it’s A STUDY to see if it’s possible to mimic the beneficial exposure to the flora of a mother’s birth canal in babies delivered via C-section.
