Had forgotten what a hatchet job The Golden Compass was until you mentioned it :(

Well its kinda the plot of Juno. Perhaps they thought that was a documentary?

How did you somehow get the point and miss it at the same time???

It is like no one in the comments actually read the article. I was looking forward to lurking on some discussions about how to hire more diverse actors for leading roles, but its just endless “he was great in Two Guys a Girl and a Pizza Place!” and willful ignorance down here. Incredibly frustrating.

Not what the article was about. Did you read it?

That is not even a little bit what this article is about.

HACK THE PLANET

This is what happens: http://thinkprogress.org/politics/2016/…

Grew up in NY, every school had a nurse as far as I know. This seems like a basic thing to have just for like, liability reasons. What if there was a kid with epilepsy or something?

np :) you already braved the admittedly ferocious gawker commentariat, that has to count for something haha

Yes! Not that we always need to be validated by someone else, but just having some no-nonsense backup is so so appreciated. Those are the times I remember most as White Folks Who Get It. Your husband seems like a mensch :)

can’t seem to edit my post. kinjaaaaaa-breath-aaaaaaa

Hi! Black person here (insert Nick Jr’s Face dot gif) Here’s my two cents:

That is some real good internet sleuthing, and DAMN. The resemblance must end at his voice or something, because I still basically think that is Bradley Cooper and I know its not.

Even 3/5ths of them! Which....wow i really wish someone more intelligent than i would do a ‘modest proposal’ remix with this idea

Chiming in with more 69 love (already pre-blushing for the TMI ahead, but): Wow. wowowow. Also used to not be into it, (or getting oral in general) but it turns out that’s because none of my partners were as enthusiastic/responsive as mr. culpa, because that shit is the best.

Yep. And/or those slobbing on the knobs of the Founding Fathers/the consitution

Agreed. Androgyny shouldn’t just mean “more like a [stereotypical] dude”

Ugh, this is my life. I try actively to never be pushy, or lord it over anyone when a few minutes later a guy says a slightly different version of what I just said and they are right.

So it looks like a few of the original portraits were done by a German photog named Mario Gerth. You can see more of them here, all super stunning:
