The worst thing about Will’s death is in the months since the death aired, several off the record sources have told fans - at events and such - that Dena Higley the head writer pitched Will’s death as a way to lure back conservative viewers for the show’s 50th Anniversary. So, unlike all these straight writers who…

I was really surprised when I heard they killed off Will. I haven’t watched DOOL in years, but it was like it was written by James E. Reilly from the grave in how thoughtlessly it was done.

I have no opinion on The 100. But I hope people understand that no one is saying queer characters can’t die or should be given special treatment. But that this happens disproportionately with queer characters who are already underrepresented. And most of these shows aren’t ones where major characters are regularly…

Happens all the time on TV. This past October the daytime soap Days of Our Lives gruesomely killed off its gay legacy character, Will Horton, in a way that was a blatant and obvious pander to conservative viewers. There was so much hate messaging, a lot of people thought the show might be pulled from the air. It’s…

Your son sounds awesome. Mind if I asked how did you raise him? I hope my son is this awesome that he accidentally takes a pic with a celebrity.

My son, then 16, was in Europe with his history class 3 years ago. They were in Paris, just hanging, when someone approached them, saying in a sing-song voice, “I love Par-ee!” Aidan, who had no idea at the time who Richard Simmons was, thought this was just some homeless guy approaching them, so (because he fully…

I have ID channel on in the background and I’m pretty sure there were at least 3 versions of this story while I’ve been sitting here.

Okay. This guy is saying that Simmons’ maid is an evil witch holding him hostage in his house. Or Simmons has suffered from some breakdown and is cutting off contact from friends and family. Whatever is going on it doesn’t sound good. I hope he is okay and that he is just taking a break.

That is fucking frightening! You are strong. I don’t know if I could have stood so tall with a target like that on my back for almost 3 years!!!

Gee, I can't imagine why you're not having enjoyable sexual experiences with women. Maybe few of them have the patience or stamina to spend hours trying to placate a shrieking manbaby. It's hard to get creative in bed when you're exhausted, or constantly worrying that you didn't do something exactly right. If you…

I have invited Fivethirtyeight.com data journalist Reuben Fischer-Baum to discuss this spreadsheet and what it may indicate about the sexual prowess of the guy who made it.

Doesn't every team need a batboy?

As an early-retired (OK, parachuted-out) former executive of a company of s14B in annual sales, I am firmly of the belief that sociopaths have a huge advantage in American business these days. Aggressive behavior is mistaken for confidence, and confidence for competence. The next-quarter view of profits feeds this…

Yup. Seen that so many times. Most recently: One friend works in the wine industry - his boss is horrid + a pass-out-drunk-at-company-functions level of alcoholic...and they just pick her up and have someone take her home in a cab every time because "she does good work". At least encourage the woman to rehab for god's…

I'm a complete cynic but I really believe that if the company was doing ok financially, he'd still be employed. He has been a pervy ass from the beginning. I'm not complaining that he's been fired, I just am doubtful that it wasn't primarily financially motivated.

In his defense, it's probably not fair to single out his homophobia. I, for one, am willing to give him credit and say that Marshall Henderson probably has very dumb thoughts about a lot of other things, too.

It seems like the solution to all of this is to not give your 6 year old your Apple password. Just a thought.

As a Hattiesburg native, this kind of confirms the rumors that surrounded this that I've heard from people around town...

Dr. Who to the rescue! The adipose are taking over!

All you snarky Texas haters can shove it. 42% of the vote went to Obama (again). So please, get off my lawn about this stupid secession sideshow. If anything, you should be offering us more support. Texas Democrats have been on the front lines of crazy for years, while you sit back and sip your Maryjuana flavored…
