Nice video! (And the white bro is cute.)

“Frog-faced Avenger"? So we're allowed to critique people's physical appearance on Jez now? Good to know.

Okay. Everyone here - and in other places - has talked about how great the book is. I’d never even heard of the book until the movie. And I don’t really have an interest in the book or the movie. Maybe because I'm not really interested in space, science, or books/movies about some lone person trying to survive…

I wanted to hear what the captain's 8-point plan was. (And, damn, I hate the phrase "cuffing season." Who is to blame for all these stupid phrases for things?)

I didn't really get a "feminist" vibe from this description, so maybe I'll have to watch the first ep to see what makes it feminist. (Not that it matters to me; I just thought that was an interesting word choice.)

I think I'd feel worse saying that I wasn't comfortable, since that's not really true. It's not that I'm uncomfortable, I'm just usually not that interested. I don't need to gaze into their stroller or crib, and I don't particularly feel the urge to hold them.

The mother probably would have just laughed and handed me the baby anyway!

I think I might have been angry, making an excuse or a joke. Why can't I just say "No"? (That's not directed at you, Tupiniquim.) Why should I feel guilty or awkward?

Oh shoot. I guess I could have mentioned how cute he is. Ugh.

Sorry this isn’t answering your question, but I don’t understand hate-watching things. I love or like shows, and when I start hating them - or soon after, when I've given up - I quit. Why waste your time watching things you hate? Sometimes I think that "hate-watching" is just a way to justify liking something you - or…

Has anyone ever said “No” when you’re asked if you want to hold someone’s baby? I was at a party a few weeks ago and when asked - not by the person whose baby it was but someone standing next to the parent - and I said “No.” I don’t hate babies - and didn’t have food in my hands :) - but I’m sort of like Elaine Benes,…

Just for mentioning the pie I’d get you out of the grays if I could!

But saying “She gave a fantastic speech” doesn’t really speak to the delivery, only the content. (And “She fantastically gave the speech” doesn’t sound the same as “She was articulate.”) I’m well aware of the implications of the word “articulate” when it’s in reference to a person of color, but -as awards shows,…

Oh for God’s sake. You have no idea what they were responding to, or if this was actually an “eye roll.” I’m sure that if anyone took a picture of you at any specific moment, your facial expression could be interpreted as anything people wanted to interpret it as.

God yes. And that’s as true for Taraji as it is for Viola.

No one’s going to see this since I’m in the grays, but it sucks that so many SNS posts are grey. It’s not very “social,” and there are so many “gray people” posting who need help and advice. :(

I don’t really expect people to have an answer, and certainly not to speak for all trans people, but I’ll ask anyway.....Is there a sense that trans actors/actresses want to, or would prefer to, play trans people in movies/TV/theatre? Or do they just want to play whatever gender they present themselves as? Or do they…

If you’re a child - under 18 - you’re calling me Ms. LauraHoltSteele until I tell/let you otherwise. I think it is a sign of a lack of respect. We’re not peers or equals.

I see what you’re saying, but I don’t think that anyone who saw that tweet seriously thought that the President had invited someone to the WH who had made a bomb, either because that would just make no sense, or because, as you said, the fuller story was already news.

I didn’t see what was wrong with the post either.
