How is it possible that LiLo looks as if she was taking over Mickey Rourke’s role in the sequel to “The Wrestler”, yet looks fantastic in the 2nd picture? Is it the new haircut? What’s happening here?

Who keeps hiring her to do things?

This feud would be a no brainer if Taylor Swift wasn’t so fake. Both these women suck.

I’ve used this technique myself. The physiology of it is very interesting. Apparently, itchiness receptors and heat receptors in your skin operate very similarly. They send chemical signals through your nervous system that tell your brain when you skin is hot or itchy. If you take a super-hot (though not scalding)…

I admire your self-sacrifice, but isn’t there some much-less-sentient animal that you could stick in there with them?

I’m an entomologist and I work with that beautiful specimen you have pictured, Ae. aegypti. To maintain a colony in the lab, I will sometimes have to feed them by sticking my arm into a cage and letting them go to town. My best advice to avoid getting a reaction is to NOT SCRATCH no matter how much they itch. Once you…

He’s using contemporary Republican tactics to stir the discourse into utter meaninglessness, in an effort to undermine the proceedings. Drive it all into a swampy bog, before anyone is able to clearly discern the shape and definition of the controversy. Makes me wonder if he’s more than complicit.

I don’t like the ageism in some of the speculation about McCain’s terrible question. Let’s remember his was the last question at the end of a very long hearing. I was tired and frazzled too (and still in my PJs, looking like absolute shit). I think what’s important here is less how capable McCain’s mind is, but how…

I doubt a middle age woman would share her insecurities with her twelfth-grader paramour. She’d probably be too busy using him to feel amazing and desirable, a goddess.

“Then I realized that Wonder Woman 2 is its own great movie. I made Wonder Woman. Now I want to make Wonder Woman 2.

Also there’s a pretty consistent pattern in that team-up movies sell more tickets than the solo hero movies, for whatever reason.

Sequel was already approved.

They will absolutely make a sequel given that this is the first critical and commercial success DC/WB has had in a while. Wonder Woman will be in next year’s Justice League movie, so we’ll be seeing her sooner than later. The trailer looked pretty good and funny, so maybe DC will stay off their grimdark path for the…

...huh?

You THINK you were the pursuer, but hun, it’s called “grooming”, and you were a child while she was a grown woman. And to compare these sort of power imbalances with homosexuality is really fucking problematic.

Speaking as a woman, I’ll have to take your word for it. But I don’t know, the power imbalances in those relationships are stunning and it’s hard to believe that’s not even a little bit of the appeal.

“Because her father didn’t want her to be humiliated. To feel shame, embarrassment that he had seen other women go through when they went to the police at that time,”

I wonder if they aren’t also all afraid of growing older, too. And perhaps there’s an element of control?

Just a few thoughts from somebody who hasn’t thought much about this: what seems common to these women and other teachers who have been apprehended having sex with students is that they are all pretty-ish and all young-looking for their age. I wonder if they aren’t also all afraid of growing older, too. And perhaps…

This is a very interesting read and I won’t pretend to be able to relate to what this person went thru, but...
