...If your partner mentions that they idolize any of these characters the only appropriate response is running away quickly. But maybe leave a book behind on how to critically consume media? 

You’re doing great things, and rashguards are a good suggestion.
But literally if I walk the dog at 9 in the morning while wearing long sleeves and pants...the tops of my feet will still burn. the backs of my ears burn.
If you are a ginger...everything burns.
That doesn’t mean I don’t love the beach or shouldn’t be…

Yay! I just bought a ton of the Alba stuff because it was at Costco for like...next to nothing. Excited for inexpensive spf 50 options!

Yeah, it’s a pretty normal question in light-hearted settings. It’s weird, because anything out of context gets that ‘wtf’ness to it, but people will bring it up at bridal showers...girls nights...kings questions...and on and on.

People are going to feel this different ways about this and that’s their right as well. I was also a virgin before raped. I didn’t think of myself as one after, and it wasn’t helpful or healing to think that way. I actually got really annoyed with people who tried to press on me that I was still a virgin. It was an…

I have so many questions.
First, there seems to be no consistency amongst hiring managers on this point. I’ve heard some say that if an applicant doesn’t list their GPA they assume they have something to hide, while others (like yourself) believe that it looks amateur. Is this something that you all talk about amongst…

We voted, and totally support this endeavor.
Sometimes a good clock cleaning is good for the soul.

The romance is what creates a lot of the ethical dilemmas and the driving force of A’s need to figure out if there is a way to ‘fix’ their condition and settle in a body permanently in order to have a lasting relationship. Prior to meeting Rhiannon, A pretty much tried to make sure that each body they inhabited was…

Meredith Grey is the worst protagonist ever, but I’m kinda starting to fall in love with Ellen Pompeo.

Have you ever had to debate whether or not you should be allowed to exist while simultaneously struggling with depression while keeping your emotions totally in check because ‘this is supposed to be an academic environment where we can discuss anything.’?
I have.
Thank christ there was a safe space I could go…

I actually felt the same way, but I ended up watching the Netflix show and really enjoying it. I especially appreciated how rarely Castle actually uses a gun and how nuanced the gun control conversation ends up being thanks to characters like Karen Page (who carries a gun, but has also been almost murdered a whole…

Well, it turns out sexual assault is also not that uncommon. So.

So, a literal safe space for racists who can’t handle being around people who aren’t white.
In my experience, that just means they’ll get into a pissing match over who’s the most white and discriminate against the Irish or the Scottish or Italians. England in the 1400s was about as homogenous as is possible and there…

Yeah. I mean, I can’t believe women picked someone other than him to date. That’s definitely bullying and is caused by the fact that he’s a gamer and not that he’s clearly full of toxic misogyny.

My parents explained it as ‘Santa is the spirit of giving’ which is why we can do secret santas and why some presents come from Santa. Made it easy for them to not straight lie but also help us not traumatize our classmates.

My grandmother broke her hip when I was six (I remember vividly because I was supposed to go to her house after school and when she couldn’t come to the door I had to break in and figure out how to call 911).
She passed away when I was 28. She was 93.
It can definitely be really tough to recover from a broken hip, but…

Yep. Discovering this changed my view on a lot of things because I realized how much we’d all been duped into rooting for a billion dollar hamburger chain instead of an elderly woman who just didn’t feel like she should have to go bankrupt because McDonalds wanted to serve their coffee at the temperature of the sun.

Actually either way would make them a predator. Showing someone your naked body when they haven’t asked is sexual harassment. Begging to see someone’s naked body when they’re obviously uncomfortable is sexual harassment.
I should be upset about how few dudes here seem to get that, but tragically in gaming communities…

I don’t know. Very few dick pics are consensual and ‘begging for nudes’ sounds like sexual harassment, not just a natural flirting escalation.

Anyone know how I can buy that bear a drink?
