Acid attacks are just so fucking gruesome and heartbreaking and one of those things that is almost exclusively carried out by men to disfigure women. Brava to Reshma for fighting back in a way that works for her.

Grace Jones resorting to Shade would be like Neil deGrasse Tyson showing up for a lecture with a styrofoam model of the Solar System.

I feel like the least we could do for those two glorious women is to not pit them against each other over Drake. That is one whiny dude. He’s not worthy of Queen Serena or Queen Nicki.

His performance was brilliant. He was “doing” Tallulah Bankhead throughout the film - except when scared and would”slip out of character” into a regular voice. (worth a revisit).

Maybe I’m just not a romantic, but there’s no time period I’d rather live in than this one. Or maybe the future. But right now we have disposable tampons, birth control, antibiotics, air conditioning, divorce laws, safe abortions (where available) and surviveable c-sections. I’m a cynic and I bitch a lot about what…

With the wedding/cousin situation, the bride really needs to decide what she wants her relationship with her cousin to be. This is not about her fiance’s feelings about the cousin, this is about if the bride wants to forgive the cousin for having a moment of (too real) real talk, and resume their formerly superclose…

It was firing missiles. You’d see, if they’d stayed in formation, it would not at all have been phallic. Not terribly clever, but definitely not offensive. This fine is f**king stupid.

See now, Kim Davis? This is persecution!

I would love to see an exhibit of her dresses.

God, this makes me sad for a whole number of reasons. Mostly the insistence of somehow equating scientific, accurate terms with sex or or sexiness sexuality.

In the meantime, Henrietta Lacks’ author Rebecca Skloot responded to the controversy on Facebook, saying that Sims has “confused gynecology with pornography.”

Faking it? I’ve always figured it’s like Mr Weasley’s fascination with Muggle life- it seems exotic to her because “mundane things” aren’t a part of her life.

I would like to use this as an opportunity to promote Peaky Blinders on Netflix because it is awesome as fuck. Hardy plays a the head of London’s early 20th century Jewish gangs. I am giddy with excitement every time he is on the screen because he rocks the shit out of the role.

This.

It’s blatant truth that criminals look for weak/incapable targets, like people wearing headphones or someone with shoes that make it hard to run. This still doesn’t make it right to yell at the victim that it’s their fault.

Really stunned that this was ever considered a suicide attempt.

I know she is an iconic figure, but seriously, she’s right - since when did she become an authority on rape? I don’t know why we expect our entertainers to be paragons of virtue and sages when they’re famous for being entertainers. Let’s worry when actual “authorities on rape” spout nonsense, not when aging rock stars…

I’m not defending these kids, but if their order got messed up and they’d been having a bad day, I can see how they’d be mad. Like, maybe their fries were too crispy and one of them is allergic to crunchy? I don’t think everyone needs to be jumping down their throats just because they made a mistake once. I once…

Given the statement that it was because of an “argument on social media” I wonder if it might have had nothing to do with her working the drive through except the attacker knowing that she’d be there. We’ve had a couple of fights break out in or in front of my library this summer simply because two (or more) people…

I know but they introduced her in such an awesome way after foreshadowing her for a long time before. I hate when shows bring in New characters outta nowhere but Buffy did it right. Implanting her into everyone’s memory as if she was really buffys sister. She was just the key in human form. Sorry, geeking out here.
