Not surprising; the book is one giant reference for the other books almost to the point of absurdity. Remember The Hanging Tree? Don’t worry; there’s totally a connection between Snow hearing it throughout his life! Hey, remember that weird Tiger Lady in the Capitol? Don’t worry, she’s here too, and she has a…

Your doctor DOES get a “tip”- it’s called reimbursement from insurance companies for writing prescriptions, conducting tests, and using certain reimbursed medical equipment to conduct said tests. The very few US networks (like Mayo Clinic) that pay a set salary have on average the fewest number of tests run, because…

I’m pretty sure that despite what the DAILY MAIL has to say, a recording artist that is still extremely well liked, talented and successful, who doesn’t spend the entirety of his spare time posting unhinged to social media while calling it “freedom”, who clearly didn’t have a ghostwriter work OT to ensure it looks…

Oh sweetie, you're already behind. Emmer's bid has already been dropped.

When Meryl Streep and her children make entire careers out of excessively divulging their personal information in a desperate bid to obtain relevancy, and when her husband assaults another man on national television, then you’ll be free to make that argument.

Hey, "tacky prostitute" is a style, so not technically incorrect.

Your kid will always, always encounter other kids that don’t want to socialize with them- it’s one of the only elements where I think “modern parenting/ schools” for lack of a better phrase have done something counterintuitive. I’ve seen my Godchildren be forced to invite kids to their parties or play with kids they…

Not only that, but we're the MAJORITY by a country mile. In 2016, the AMA published the largest study ever conducted regarding abortions, with over 200k women participating. Over 98% of them did not regret their abortion. 98%. Those who regret fall into two categories: They were coerced or they were from religious…

Just like vetting a doctor, you have to vet your potential instructor. I practiced Kenpo for years and my sensei was a hardass who studied under Ed Parker. Everyone got hit the same; some of the most brutal hits I took were from 80 year old men, and I was expected to beat those men down regardless of what blood…

AOC only looks smart because the bar is on the floor. You don’t have to be a wonk to know that the GOP will always, ALWAYS resort to party lockstep if they have to- this was a scenario where they didn’t have to because the Democrats did the work for them. Now the rest of the house GOP can sit back and say “I tried”…

To be fair that’s a generalized reading of what they said. Roe was argued under the right to privacy, because despite organ and tissue donation being voluntary, there actually ISN’T a right to bodily autonomy in the Constitution. A conservative justice can easily pick apart the right to privacy argument on a federal…

I mean, “they” didn’t do jack squat regarding a player having a cardiac event. And, even if “they” orchestrated contact in what is billed to and understood by the players that make millions in it as a contact sport, then maybe don’t hang your entire career on a sport that carries more risk than reward? I wouldn’t…

Uh, you are aware that groping is considered sexual assault/ sexual harassment, right? So yes, Mary, it’s criminal.

My grandfather got married before being deployed in WWII. Unfortunately, his “wife” was actually seeking a widow’s pension and she divorced him when surprise! he returned (from surviving NORMANDY of all places).

Are we shocked? It’s been pretty clear from all of her appearances that her and her husband are still Evangelical- meaning they’re only moderately clearing the very low bar set by the IBLP, and their attitudes surrounding the abuse haven’t largely been that it was amoral, wrong or a crime- but that it should never…

A 22oz soda costs roughly $.48 (not including the cost of the cup/ lid). While the price of basic syrup has increased, maintenance and shipping are worse since bagpacks are often sold through corporate instead of regional bottlers.

All that’s left is getting traded to the Vikings, pulling statistically the best season of his career, and flaming out spectacularly the following season.

Listen sweaty, don’t be up in here virtue signaling about racial inequity to justify a convicted rapist and his shitty friends. There are ALSO many black and brown men in prison because they did the same as Masterson or far, far worse. Should they be exonerated because the poor adult brown man didn’t know that rape…

Dear Diary,

I’d argue the primary difference is that Islands of Adventure is heavily comic-based and stylized as such. The most you’ll get is updated costumes for character interactions. The pre shows and queues don’t feature and have never featured live actors from a specific filmset- even pre Disney acquisition. It’s timeless…
