THere is an NPR episode about the producer, something Blum. His model is to produce a lot of very low budget movies per year, based on the idea that one or two will hit. Peele didn’t write a 5 million budget movie, he wrote more like a 20 million one. The fact that no one was willing to fund it meant it was available…

I got a message meant for you. You can see it down thread but I am attaching the text. I didn’t write this, I am just passing it on.

While I can’t contribute too much, I wanted to thank you for sharing your story here. I’m also a familial abuse survivor, and I suffer from nightmares too (had one last night, wee!). Just know, you are not alone and we are all getting better together. Feel free to message me if you ever wish you talk. Wishing you…

Thanks for saying that about Autism Speaks. the way people view autism is really skewed to how it actually is, and organizations like autism speaks take away attention to actual autistic people’s opinions by centering the narratives around caregivers and parents of autistic people.

OMG, I slept with a guy once who was 27 and swore to me he’d had a vasectomy, so he didn’t need a condom. Good try there, buddy. Who knows how many women he knocked up? Yeah, men are weird about this. I’m with you.

Honestly, I don’t have much hope for it in India or other “poor countries.” Women have a hard time getting birth control in many of those countries because the men don’t want them to...they’re certainly not going to get it for themselves. Especially if the marketing stresses its “sperm-zapping” qualities. 

The Greater Internet Fuckwad Theory.

I’m so happy to hear that you are having a good day. I understand what you were going through. Acouple of week ago I was folding laundry and making a list in my head of all my tasks. One of the tasks was to send emails to my cousins in California. No big deal. All of a sudden tears started shooting out from my eyes. I…

The guys on ‘Pod Save America’ say all the time “remember what used to be a scandal?” Obama got even the slightest actions picked over (“remember when Chavez gave him a book and he didn’t immediately throw it away?”), Trump just skates on by.

Good. He’s a piece of shit and must be held accountable for the sewage that oozes from his puckered anus-like pie hole. The gassy ass clown gets to play and live by an entirely different set of standards than the rest of the world does and it needs to stop. He might get a kick out of riling up his obnoxious drunken…

“I’m like a smart person” The 45th President of the United States.

Non-American here: Is this like a new precedent? To have a sitting president involved in multiple law suits?

The food will be goddamn amazing. I’m in.

Two things.

Burner and Hadji’s lack of humor are an enigma.

Fifty bucks says Mango Mussuolini and The Pence Robot think this genuine, honest man and his profound positive impact on millions and millions of people is an April Fool’s joke

You’d think the Japanese research whalers would have figured some of this out by now. That is, if it was actually research and not just a sham pretext for an active fishery.

I had a landlord once (in 1989) who said wouldn’t buy a Japanese car, “because of what they did to us at Pearl Harbor.”

Here’s the thing with minke’s though. We don’t know shit about them, nor do we have a really good grasp on what their actual global population is. I used to work up in Alaska for the feds and one of my jobs was to hang out on wildlife and glacier cruises to educate tourists about the ecosystem. In all my time spent…
