Since he got a Marvel Studios contract. :p

But he was never unattractive, dern it!

Guys... Did I miss the boat? When did Andy Dwyer become such a sizzling hot babe?

Well, I could just binge watch Chris Pratt all damn day.

Yeah - all day long: Hit the public pool in the morning. Swing by the library a check out a book or two. Lay in wait for the snow cone truck. Join in a pick-up football game in the empty lot full of broken glass, concrete chunks, and rebar. Catch frogs in the polluted, snake-infested, ditch until dark... then get…

Exactly what I was thinking... how can a child learn independence if they have to be supervised every time they leave their house? A nearby park should be perfectly safe for a NINE YEAR OLD to play at without Mommy watching, and if it's not, then maybe the cops should be focusing their energy on fixing it.

Exactly. And it's gross.

The fact that I, as a white woman, get lauded for staying at home with my kids and not working is the biggest wake-up call to my privilege. If my skin had any other tint I'd get called all kinds of names.

My son is now 11 and is allowed to stay home by himself when I go to run a quick errand or two. I understand the urge to hover over your child, but I've decided I want him to take baby steps toward independence rather than just turning him loose with no experience later on.

Ten and 11 is when we started letting our kids be at home by themselves for a couple of hours during the day. 12 and 13, we'd leave them alone at night, but not overnight. Opened up a whole new world for us. Date night!

I walked to school every day starting with kindergarten. My mother walked me the first day and that was it. After that I managed to get to school, library, public pool, park, and friends' homes all by myself on my own two legs. Not a goddamn thing ever happened. Not once! But now it would be considered "neglect".

I started babysitting at 11. I would do stuff by myself all the time. No 11 yo needs a babysitter unless they are special needs.

If this mother stayed home with her child, she'd be blasted for not having a job.

At the age of eight, I rode the city bus - by myself - to school every morning and then was trusted to walk to the public library after school where I would (usually) go, finish my homework and then read for pleasure. Occasionally , if I had cobbled together a dollar or so, I would walk to Graziano's Pizza, eat a…

I don't understand. I was walking to school or going to the park by myself - or anywhere else I wanted to go - from the time I was 5. At 9(?!?) the kid is old enough to have a job mowing yards or delivering newspapers to save up and buy her own bike - so she can go even more places. What's different now? Other than…

Lock your kids inside the house so they can sit on their asses and get diabeetus.

Abandoned buildings are fascinating. It's amazing how much stuff gets left behind. Tools in warehouses, medical files in hospitals, film equipment in theaters.

The most disappointing thing about this article was the lack of clues about the Yellow King.

Hopefully those viewpoints were part of closeted and confused Frank and will change with Kellie's new honest and open life. If not, I hope she gets called out for it.

Oh my stars! *fans self* I'm currently watching a BBC series from 2004 called "Long Way Round" in which Ewan and his best friend motorcycle around the world. He seems so lovely in "real life," and now I'm even more in love.
