The great thing about Marg in Big Love is she married Barb as much as she married Bill. Perhaps more so for Barb than Bill.

Big Love was not a perfect show, but, damn, did it have some powerhouse acting in it.

Obligatory

The one word response from Merriam Webster is pretty funny.

They could fill time with realistic wait times for cabs and elevators.

I find it consistently weird that there are rape allegations (NOTE: I have no idea if they are true, however the woman who has made them has maintained for years now on her blog and Twitter that it happened, and has posted photos suggested they knew each other when they were young) against Tyson and no one ever talks…

Neil deGrasse Tyson, Elon Musk, and Ben Carson each embody the problems of having only a science background with no wider knowledge of the liberal arts as well as the fallacy of being smart in one thing gives your opinion and views weight in all topics.

I’ve lost almost all of my tolerance for the sort of lazy contrivances screenwriters resort to when they haven’t figured out a way to maintain conflict and drama in the story without denying the characters all the information they need to act in their own self-interest. I hate it when all a character has to do is use…

Then writers need to try harder. Seriously, romance does happen in real life and it doesn’t take 2 mins.

It’s like the person’s head cracked open and their jumble of thoughts was imprinted on an email and sent as-is.

This was a total must-see from the moment I read about blast beats over bucolic landscapes to the headbanging saints.

That’s not a cry for help, it’s basically SWATting a woman who pissed him off, from a man with a bit of history of this shit. No excuses.

This was excellent. Both actresses are clearly gifted at comedy, but this is heavier material. I’m really looking forward to next week.

For I, Tonya... ““We wanted to emphasize that this is a cycle and this is so routine for her, because it’s happened her whole life.”—> this came across 100%. I definitely think whomever reviewed it for Jez must have had a weird audience or whatever bc my experience was nervous laughter and then mostly silence as the…

Really great article. One of the things that I noticed is that this is something that feminist critics of some of the forms of media that I’m really familiar with have been saying this for a while. Jezebel has touched on them as well.

Who told you women’s stories have to be peaceful and loving?

I think they might all be Eleanor picks, it was a Rihanna concert that she ditched the house sitting gig to see, sexy postman was her fantasy, Steve Austin came up a number of times, shrimp of course, not sure about the others but I bet it’s in there somewhere.

BORTLES!!

On the other hand, he might have to learn the lesson that guy I knew learned. That is, you shouldn’t do anything to your partner in bed that you’re not ready for them to enjoy. If you’d be prone to think less of a person who got off on anal, or on being grabbed by the neck and slapped during sex, or whatever, then…

There is no such thing as a sick day or PTO when you’re working on your PhD. You’re not an employee but somehow more than a student. You probably get paid a stipend and maybe even get health insurance, but pay no payroll tax, and are expected to work an arbitrary number of hours to meet your TAing/RAing supervisors’…
