Shut up, nerd! *dumps your books, shoves you in a locker*

I would be willing to give so much more in my tax dollars to launch her into space as part of an immersion learning course.

Couple reasons. For one, Ned and Catelyn barely knew each other. She’d originally been betrothed to his older brother, who was killed by Aerys. Ned agreed to marry her in his stead, and they grew to care for one another, but they were essentially strangers when he brought Jon home. How would he know if she was…

Interview with the Vampire is a perfectly cromulent movie. Queen of the Damned, on the other hand, is a huge pile of garbage.

I feel like everyone has skipped it. Even EW (where I go for actual recaps. I come here for the commentary). Wolf was shot and threw himself on a zombie and yelled “GO!” To Denise. Carol sees this and feels conflicted. Did no one else but you and I see this?

So are we just gonna skip the whole thing of Morgan being right about the wolf?

Good.

Depressingly I just realised the “prove that kilgrave exists” plot is a metaphor for people not believing rape survivors.

Oh god your comment is insufferable and I am 0% surprised to find you’re an attorney.

Jesus. To live in a country where you even have to have that policy...

I was raped by a stranger in 2001. I (literally) couldn’t have picked him out of a lineup. He was convicted of a totally unrelated felony 9 years later 5 states away when his DNA was entered into CODIS (the federal database) where his DNA was perpetually run against old rape kits. It matched my rape kit, which,…

I had to include my most favorite gif of all time.

The idea that we had a war on drugs while a single piece of rape evidence sat on a shelf somewhere. It’s sick.

No fucks given.

What if she was diabetic and off her meds, would that be okay to talk about? Maybe we need to quit thinking about mental illness as a dirty little secret that needs to be hidden?

Yeah, you don’t wanna go Full Monty.

I remember a girl the year above me getting pregnant in middle school. I remember people saying that she’d been having an affair with an older guy. I think it might’ve been her babysitter? There were all sorts of whispers around school, and she ended up leaving school partway through the year. She couldn’t have been…

I have a very clear memory, from when I was about 12, of my mother angrily telling me about a family we knew from church, and how their horrible daughter, who was a few years years older than me, had “ruined her family” by reporting that her stepfather had molested her. It didn’t even occur to my mother, or anyone…

Thank you for writing about this. I remember in the 7th grade that there was an 8th girl, kind of popular and already developing, who was rumored to be “having an affair” with the PE teacher/football coach. I remember at that time that we blamed her - that we thought she was a “slut,” that we though she had enough…

This a million times. People forget that your bridal party is doing YOU a favor. I cannot believe the expectations people are ok placing on people because it’s your wedding. I remember having this conversation with a recently engaged girl I know:
