This is really rude and unnecessary. The books were absolutely critical reading and literacy tools in the lives of millions of children, many of whom might not have picked up/had access to a book otherwise. They’re also, well, really good fantasy books for children. Your snideness here is misplaced, regardless of…

If I might make an attempt at nuance here, the idea that many psychiatrists are too quick to throw pills at something and call it a day is both true and a big problem. I speak from personal experience - I struggled for years futilely against clinical depression with a series of RXs that never much helped until I…

In case anyone here was still under the impression that JK Rowling isn’t a transphobe, she recently unfollowed Stephen King and deleted her tweets supporting him after he came out saying trans women are women.

Oh 100%. My husband and I have been joking about how this show knows 1 plot trick (sexual violence/threat of sexual violence) since I started watching in Season 1. I mean, not only does every man try to rape Claire - but then Jaimie gets raped and Claire has to... rape him to heal him? You have to admit it was…

I think it’s a reasonable assumption that Diana Gabaldon has a rape fetish.

While it certainly looks cleaner, I gotta say it does seem like the characters end up losing a lot of personality

Better?  Eh, yeah, I guess, but it also looks like every other generic Japanese Anime game.  Like that last image: why not let a girl have an ugly scowl on her face?  No, no, gotta make her look cute and wistful instead.

That’s kind of disappointing. The shift to anime-style kind of makes the characters lose... uh, character? Just generic in general. I always did like the original designs because it reminded me of Vagrant Story’s style. Oh well.

Oh God, I hate this one. First of all King is right if you don’t like it don’t take part. The protesters of this book are honestly Kissin cousins of those loons against Drag Queen Story Time in libraries. If you don’t want your kids to be read to by a Drag Queen don’t bring them.

Given the first choice (Garrus) was already taken I’ll have to go with the character that probably started my interest in snarky, cynical, self-assured, intelligent, raven-haired women that has been the basis of what I look for in a potential partner ever since.

I liked DBZ:A WAAAY better than the original. I wouldn’t have finished it if not for wanting to see the joke context.

Yeah I think it’s gonna be a very divisive experience but I would tend to agree with Garlador. The manga is pretty good too, but the anime itself is very bad to me :/

Dragon Ball Z Abridged as always the superior Dragon Ball experience.

If Trump actually had the Death Note, he’d probably write his name on the first page to let everyone know it’s his book.

JASON YOU MUST BE STOPPED.

So, what you’re saying is that if it isn’t Sanders or Warren, you’re voting for Trump. Gotcha. 

Or... You could just let people enjoy things. Sounds like you're the boorish douchebag who lords their opinion on everyone else.

“It looked uncannily human, perhaps because it was shaped like most humans.”

My first and lasting reaction is … “Well. Running out of ideas, are we?”

“I am not quite moved by a still of Pelosi simply doing her job. I am also not moved by this photo of Jackie Robinson simply doing his job, I mean, he’s supposed to be a baseball player, isn’t that what he’s paid for?”
