Was anyone else surprised that dress wasn’t in the Smithsonian or the Pop Culture museum? I only remember Ripley’s as the group who made a TV show about human oddities.

By his logic then a gay actor shouldn’t be able to play a straight role. Or am I missing something?

I think the thing is, in the 90s, they probably didn’t even consider casting a gay actor, nor were there many openly gay actors in Hollywood. Thirty years later, in a (moderately) more accepting society, there are gay performers who can play that role, studios more willing to hire them for it, and a public less likely…

I don’t think the scene where the general pulls the plug on Gump’s speech where he talks about how much the war sucks while the protesters cheer is very conservative.

I don’t know what we can really learn from just pointing to single individuals and deeming them good or bad. I think with Holmes it really is a weird dualism between what she did was terrible vs how she gained power by aligning herself with misogynist values points more to a really terrible society. So to me…

You may want to read The Five by Hallie Rubenhold if you haven’t already. It’s a great examination into the lives of the victims that goes in depth into the topics you’re mentioning.

I wish it was that simple, but the GOP will get extremely creative to write laws that effectively decrease black gun ownership while increasing white gun ownership. They don’t have any principles at all.

anyone that skiplags with checked baggage deserves the inevitable consequences.   surely a sign of a malfunctioning prefrontal cortex.

Plus once they realize you’re not in your seat, they sell your seat to someone else, essentially letting them get paid twice for a single seat.

If the seat is being paid for, why do the airlines care if there’s a person in it? Also, if paying for an extra flight is cheaper than paying for just the first one, that feels like a business model failure.

Children get slaughtered in school? Sorry, can’t do anything to protect them, would be a violation of our very important rights. Some young adult women lost some swimming races to another young adult woman who may have had a mild unearned advantage? Have to protect the children from this outcome at all costs, by…

What a great way to discourage girls from participating in sport.

The horrific Photoshop was far worse than the outfit.

On the flip side, though, they almost never get rabies and are highly-efficient tick and mosquito-killers. Also, they may talk a good game with their hissing and fangs and what not, but they’re pretty docile and don’t really wanna tango (source: my mother’s a wildlife rehabber and we grew up with a number of these…

I seriously doubt that any surgeon would deliberately do a half-assed job that leaves a patient in pain. I expect the bigger issue is that most are interested in the case and performing the surgery itself, successfully, and then move on to the next patient.  Surgeons are sort of mechanics in that way.

We’d all like that.

I mean it’s possible the surgeon did screw up or he didn’t get PT or he was prescribed Tylenol when he needed something stronger. Or he was actually drug seeking or chose not to go to PT. But either way the fact he could buy an AR-15 the same day and walk in and shoot people where he could have maybe thrown a punch…

Having been through a series of shockingly painful surgeries that took over 6 months to heal, I will say that there isn’t enough post surgery follow up on patients.  I’m not suggesting that is the reasons this dude decided to murder, I’m just pointing similarities with my own experience.  Murder is never the answer…

Taking bets on whether this article actually gets updated with new information, since the new information that has already been out for hours makes your linking the riot anniversary to this look opportunistic and sleazy.

as a resident of Tulsa Oklahoma, I’m having a very difficult time understanding why you are looping in the race riots to this story. The fact that this occurred has absolutely nothing to do with the race riots whatsoever and the fact that it happened just hours after Biden spoke of the anniversary is a mere…
