15 years seems...low.

Yes, I agree in theory but what about the concept of imperfect allies? Think about how far music has come in the short amount of time from Taylor Swift, Katy Perry et al using the word gay as an insult. And I am talking recently! In Taylor Swift’s “Picture to Burn” she has a lyric in there about getting revenge on an…
Also, does he not have anyone currently in his life to tell him to trim his nose hairs?
I got like a week’s worth of schadenfreude from this. I was grinning so hard when I heard this on the news this morning that my son asked my “what? what’s so funny?” and I really didn’t want to answer “I am thoroughly enjoying another man’s pain and embarrassment.” Not the life lesson I’m trying to teach him.
And David Bowie and Leonard Cohen... sigh. John Oliver was right when he said “fuck 2016".
Didn’t Rita Ora have relationships with other women? I would think that its up to her to decide whether or not a song is inviting “the male gaze”. We should be encouraging more LGBT-positive songs, not discouraging them because they’re not perfect. I thought Katy Perry’s “I Kissed A Girl” was more offensive than…
What’s wrong with Chrissy?
Starred for River Song. I will ALWAYS star River Song.
I try to give my son a sense of age-appropriate boundaries and feelings of negativity towards false entitlement. I’m always so conscious of the world that I am raising him in. As an example of age-appropriate boundaries, I have a daughter who is 2 and a half. My 9-yr old loves her so much and she worships him, follows…
You know its bad when you get to the end of Dan Brown’s Inferno and you find out what the villain’s evil plot was and your 1st thought is: That’s... actually not a bad idea... I mean, can we do this now?
Needful Things stuck in my brain for long after I read it. It is such an underrated King novel! I also read them way to young. I remember my dad trying awkwardly to tell me that I shouldn’t be reading those at my age, but of course I didn’t listen and of course I had nightmares. Live and learn.
Try his Richard Bachman books, if you haven’t already. The Running Man, The Long Walk... His Bachman books are some of my favorites.
So, I had to read it in 10th grade which was.... nearly 19 years ago. Wow. I have no clue if they’re still making people read that. I sincerely hope not. Even back then I thought it was drivel.
Ignore the haters. That was funny.
Exactly. How could they not see how deeply unhappy he was, even when he seemed to have everything he ever wanted? Its a definite commentary on that era.
Oh, Ginsberg. You were out of your league all along.
I have watched every episode twice. You realize how much you missed the first time around. Its worth it!
I’ve never heard of that. It sounds really interesting! I’ll check it out.
Very true. Its like when it comes out that ONE person lied about being raped to get attention, which causes my mother (A staunch rape-apologist of the “what was she wearing” variety) to say “see! see! All these sluts just like to lie about being raped” It sets the cause back.
So old. Every time I hear that a news story happened 5 years ago, or something, I’m always shocked. Like, really?? 5 years? I thought that happened 6 months ago! Did you know that the whole “what color is that dress” thing happened in 2015?? That feels shocking.
