I think that this is just a really poorly written sentence, trying to say that he studied under Madeleine Albright AND the former US Ambassador to Israel, who also happens to be a professor at Georgetown's School of Foreign Service…

I get the point you're trying to make, and it still stands, but actually Luxembourg is much larger than Liechtenstein. Probably not an important distinction in the larger picture, but Luxembourg is about the size of the U.S. state of Rhode Island, while Liechtenstein is actually so tiny you can't see it on the map.

Liechtenstein is not a member state of the European Union, just so you know

I went to see 'Grand Budapest Hotel' when it first opened in theaters, at E St. Cinema in DC, and Jeff Goldblum was there, by himself, watching his own movie. It was totally unexpected, but somehow seemed so right…

Yeah, no argument here. I'm from Greenville, which is fine in itself, but the rest of the region is pretty much ground zero of right wing fundamentalism. Lindsey actually seems moderate compared to most of our politicians.

And as a former resident of Upstate SC (who interned for Sen. Graham's state office for a semester in college while trying to hide from his staff that I was a godless liberal), I'd like to point out that he was born in Pickens County, in the upstate

It definitely is! And it doesn't help that I'm watching it on my shitty TV now which has terrible sound, also I missed the first few minutes (where Clarke was drawing Lexa lol) because I couldn't remember what channel the CW was, also I'm watching with my roommate who never remembers anything that happened in past…

I think you're right and I'm probably being unnecessarily impatient…season 3 is the first I've watched in "real time" and I binged through season 2 so quickly that I probably glossed over any weaknesses in the first half of that season. But also it was easy to see Clarke's motivation from the beginning of Season 2: to…

I was also annoyed at this, but I was also so sure that he was going to killed off that I'm retroactively less annoyed.

Is anyone else starting to get slightly bored of Lexa and Clarke's storyline as of the past few episodes? It seems like there's a LOT of meaningful glances and pauses and portentous speeches and it's all just kind of over serious and repetitive? Maybe it's just me, but I would love to see both of them interacting with…

I was making tea with the TV out of sight, heard him say that, and almost scalded myself

Ehh, I'm from South Carolina, and while their weren't any riots following the shooting of Walter Scott in North Charleston, it shows that the same pattern of police violence against black men happens in the South. Plus, maybe it's just because I'm less familiar with Northern/Midwestern forms of racism, but I find the…

I was in kindergarten in 1995, so the gap between me and the scary and cool 5th graders who always sat in the back was even bigger. I remember there was this kid who did the most amazing Michael Jackson impression…he was like a bus celebrity

I'm having the opposite problem in that I find him so attractive that I am so busy lusting that I'm unable to think objectively about how terrible some of the plot lines around him are and how not that great of an actor he is…I don't know what's wrong with me, it's so embarrassing!

and speaking of Virgil, Dante's Inferno is basically self-insert Bible fanfiction where Dante gets to hang out with his favorite dead author and as a bonus, see all the people he hates in hell!

Really late to the comment game here, but I just caught up on the episode and was wondering if the poison Bible was a shout out to the part in Queen Margot by Alexandre Dumas where Catherine de Medicis accidentally poisons her son Charles IX to death with the pages of a hunting book?

considering one of her sons (Henri III) was probably gay, it's even historically accurate!
