That was incredibly well-said. Bravo. I might borrow this word-for-word in future online “discussions” with right wing troglodytes.

Reasonable people can disagree on the rankings. There have been a LOT of great episodes of Sunny. But Charlie Work is absolutely correct at number one. That’s one of the best episodes of television ever produced.

The comments on this have been pure gold.

Look, I’d love for there to be some more punitive and long-term repercussions for assholes like him. But to your point, the people he’s answerable to share his opinions. We don’t have any realist way of striking back at him short of protesting, and watching our democratic leaders work the guy over. Does he care? Of…

Good. He will in all probability get confirmed, but let’s drag this fucker through the fire to get there. He absolutely needs to be held accountable for the egregious stances he has taken and things he’s said.

Gah, I’ve been meaning to do this forever. Thanks for reminding me! Just set it up. Planned Parenthood of Greater Texas will be getting some funds from me. Lord knows if anyone will need this it’s women in Texas.

I agree completely. Foy is incredible, and I love seeing Matt Smith is a non-Doctor role. Everyone is great, but I think Lithgow was amazing. That episode with him and the artist (Stannis!) talking about his daughter’s death and the goldfish pond, Jesus. That was a master class.

I just have zero idea how anyone could have a problem with Michelle Obama. She’s objectively brilliant and accomplished, that’s beyond dispute. Even if you disagree with her husband’s politics (I don’t, just stating a hypothetical), how could you look at her with anything but appreciation? Her platform as First Lady…

Very well put.

Fair enough. We still don’t see eye to eye on this, but you certainly don’t have to agree with someone to respect their position. There are certainly people out there who’s relationships with their pets goes deeper than mine, and it’s none of my business. And I appreciate that a discussion that could have turned…

I just clicked through and read the article, and although I absolutely agree with the author, I’m not him. However, I can see from the comments here and the ones on the nymag article that there are people that feel strongly on the other side of the issue, and that’s fine. It all boils down to semantics I suppose. At…

I have two cats and a dog, and they are treated very well. I love my pets and take very seriously the responsibility of caring for them. But I don’t love them like I love my kids, I just don’t. They are animals, and even with a great fondness for them I don’t view them as anything more than that. They will pass on…

I don’t look down on anyone for not having kids. I don’t give a shit if they do or don’t. I don’t feel superior for having children. I take issue with the fact that she’s somehow indicating owning a pet and raising a child are analogous. They are not. Sure, there are shitty parents out there. There are also shitty pet…

You clearly have a lot of emotional capital invested in this. You’re not a parent. You’re a pet owner. If you honestly don’t see the difference between those two things, it’s probably for the best you don’t have any children. Putting some meow mix in a bowl and scratching them behind the ears doesn’t really suffice…

I honestly have no idea what you’re talking about right here.

Sure, I understand that owning/caring for pets is a big responsibility. I have a dog and two cats myself. But I also have two young children, and there is a vast conceptual gulf between taking care of an animal’s food/shelter/medical/affection needs (varies wildly depending on the animal), and raising kids which…

ANIMAL PARENTING IS PARENTING, IDIOT

Amazing. All the stars.

I’m enjoying the game but feel like I spend a LOT of time sitting there while Ignis drives me someplace so I can complete a quest. It can be a little annoying how non-interactive the travel is. It wouldn’t be so bad if the “fast travel” was actually fast, but the load times are insane.

Not a villain. If someone wanted to kill my daughter to serve a greater good, they can get fucked along with everyone else in the world. I protect my own. Joel did the same thing. I’d kill an entire hospital’s worth of people to protect my kid. Joel was a multi-faceted character with his flaws, but he was absolutely…
