I’ve always liked Rosie myself and found her quite funny. I think the fact that she speaks her mind, is loud, is gay and is perhaps not conventionally attractive makes her a lightning rod for misogynist hatred.

Kinja is terrible so I’m replacing stars with gifs.

I’d pretty much just like to get inside my coffee mug for the entire duration of winter.

Medical debt gets a pass completely. I think the reason why I’m more forgiving of student debt is that most of the people I deal with irl have been to college and HAD to take on loans to do so. Whereas credit card debt (to me personally) might indicate crazy shopping habits which I’m wary of.

Yeah it depends on the type of debt. Student debts get a pass but if it’s something like a ginormous credit card debt, I’d want to know what’s going on.

You will. A Smash, SMASH Fucking Hit off-Broadway last season. Moved uptown as quickly as it could, deafening buzz, 25 million plus in advance sales, all very Chorus Line. Written by Lin-Manuel Miranda, who did In the Heights a few years back.

I’d love an ABC Family-ish show loosely based on the Obama family. I love how close they seem, and the girls just seem so smart and adorable and grounded.

Tatiana Maslany diserves all the emmy nominations. All of them.

Quack quack motherfucker.

I’m not sure about you, but as a woman, I am penalized for negotiating. That’s critical nuance you seem to be ignoring.

Yes. I do not even watch sports. I only watched the Women’s World Cup and I am planning on buying a jersey. Other than that I think sports in general are such a waste of time and money :P yes that is what I think bit me if you reply to this comment with: but baseball, but football blah.

I finished watching it a few hours ago and I’m still processing everything. It was hard to watch. And while the main argument for displeasure with it seems to be that a lot of it was unnecessary or gratuitous (and I totally get that though that isn’t my complete view)...my overall feeling is that...I’m glad that they…

I know, kind of a weird thing to say but one of the things I love about the books is that Jamie never forgets Wentworth . It’s never dropped from his characterization and even 30 years later it takes all but 5 words and it’s all back .

I stand corrected.

Despite that fact that Mosby has FIVE generations of police in her family, including bother her parents, her grandfather, uncle, etc. But you know, its not like she could hold the opinion that you can support police while still holding them accountable. Its really not the difficult.

“I can’t do anything with some frigid small town virgin!” I could imagine “Jonathan” saying this line.

I take it as a sign that the show is so good all anyone has to complain about is chunky knits.

You may be right through an historically accurate lens, and many of us would concede your point. But since the Outlander story is fictional from the first word of page one of book one, I’m willing to suspend any side-eye toward the fashion accuracy in lieu of enjoying the visual story the clothes tell.

@ellietown: Ha. Word. I really hate that there only seem to be two sides in the whole BDSM and feminism debate: all kink is healthy and organic vs. all kink is bad and a tool of the patriarchy. In reality, there's people like me, whose submissive sexuality was absolutely shaped by a patriarchal culture and personal…
