My favorite was the one where Caylee Anthony was murdered by anti-vaxxers. I love the ones where they take multiple real life cases and smoosh them together into a nonsensical mega case.

They do not have sex when she’s menstruating and they don’t have sex for 80 days after the birth of a girl and 45 days after the birth of a boy. That’s old testament shit they follow. Other than that, yes, she always says yes to her husband. No word on whether she ever gets horny and asks him.

Sometimes they go a little off the rails though. Like the episode where they had Cybill Shepherd play Paula Deen as a racist southern TV chef who then took it to the next level and shot an unarmed black teenager in a hoodie. Or the Chris Brown/Rihanna episode where Rihanna took Chris Brown back and then he murdered…

SVU is the most insane show on television. I never miss an episode.

I’ve never seen a photo of Michelle where she doesn’t look hypnotized and/or on drugs. I think Dad Duggar might have her under an Imperious spell...

I already hate myself for this, but I know I’m going to wind up watching this episode.

My favourite (as in most bullshit) of the “changes to the script” was the scene in which Angelina takes off her panties and puts them over the security camera in the interrogation room - yes, this is an actual scene which exists in the fucking movie.

For real, people! Get with the now.

Now to see whether or not those “changes to the script” include something insulting like having her fail to save her husband (whereas the male lead was written as saving his wife) as in Salt because the director felt that having a woman rescue a man would be too “emasculating” for the audience. Ugh.

Just got married myself this Saturday in Chicago! The marathon was nuts as always, and probably gave some of our guests issues getting home. The Southwest Airlines site was bonked all day Sunday and my brand new in-laws had their flight delayed by a day.

Also the Amish. And Hasids. Good to keep all of this in mind when someone claims atheists have nothing to keep them on the ethical straight-and-narrow.

I’m a lawyer and I know this to be true, and I still could never understand it. Why does someone participating in a religious activity enjoy a privilege against giving evidence? Because it makes them feel better about telling someone that they’re a horrid criminal?

“I’m genuinely going to miss him. He knew how to push everyone’s buttons, had no patience for the rigorous blandness of the perfectly calibrated reality program he found himself amongst, and clashed fabulously with Kris.”

I don’t. He received child porn while she created and distributed it. Still shitty and still deserves severe punishment. But the creator should in my opinion be more criminally culpable as they abused the trust they had from the victim (or the victims guardians) to create it and then found someone to sell it to.

I would also like to note that the LDS church has worked hard to push back against its leadership becoming mandated reporters, arguing that it interferes with the repentance process. They mess up with stuff relating to sexuality and sex crimes frequently. http://www.feministmormonhousewives.org/2014/05/yeseve…

To be absolutely clear: I’m not defending this sentient piece of dogshit, and I totally agree with you that she shouldn’t be within a million miles of any kid (or, frankly, any adult. Or animal. Or tree. Or bacterial microbe).

That face when it smashes is pure gold. Hearing Mellie’s rant on Scandal this week I find myself excited to see what Michelle decides to do with her post-WH freedom. What a treat to think that the Obamas will probably be around for decades to delight us and do good work in the world.

Poor Bristol. She’s always the babymama, never the bride.

Yeah, yeah. Here’s my response to that: my dad is part of the older generation. He’s almost 70 years old. He’s also very liberal, enjoys spending his retirement watching MSNBC all day while also reading the paper and various news sites on his iPad, and ... oh yeah, he’s gay and married his partner last year.

Whenever my dad complains about how my generation is the worst (apparently snow days are for suckers and he can’t say gay or retarded anymore, and it’s all because our elementary school teachers weren’t allowed to punch us or something?), I’ve started saying, “well, we’re just living in the world your generation…
