They did a film adaptation in 2011 of “Wuthering Heights” where Heathcliff was played by a black man. I though it was awesome.

I thought that too - but then realize that the party-goers were threatened with guns. I personally think anyone who uses a gun in such a way deserves a long sentence.

“I’m not saying there’s not battered men and I’m not saying that there aren’t men accused of rape that may have not done anything to anyone, BUT there are far more women who have been raped and are battered that are never able to get adequate support or justice for what happened to them.”

Buffy made me cry several times. The episode where her mom dies? The episode where she has to kill Angel? The episode when Tara dies? So many feels.

I don’t think that having a white actor play Michael Jackson was a good choice. I’m not sure what the choice should be, though.

I’m going to one in NYC.

Not that I’m intending to stick up for Gov. Cuomo, but I will - the bill he vetoed would have shifted the burden of paying for indigent defense services away from the counties and entirely onto the state. This, I believe, would mean the state would be paying for the indigent defense services of…

“I have no simple way to describe the slow, dull ache of separation from physical and emotional intimacy after years without it.”

This so much. I have two friends I hang out with sometimes - both have children, one is divorced, both are a little older than me by 8-10 years. I’m 35 years old, an attorney in NYC, have lived by myself for 7 years (and totally independent from my parents), have 2 cats, pay my bills, etc. Just because I never got…

I would never trust a prosecutor who thinks all defense attorneys are scumbags. Says something about the prosecutor.

“said Altman, of the firm 1-800-LAW-FIRM.”

This was very well said.

I’m pretty well versed in sex offender registration in NY, so my answer is based on NY law.

I feel like there has to be a constitutional right to literacy. One cannot enjoy many of the other constitutional rights guaranteed to Americans - without serious difficulties - if one cannot read.

Why is it news when someone pleads not guilty? Everyone pleads not guilty.

When my nephew was 8yo, one of his friends called him a lesbian (used in a pejorative way in this interaction among 8yo kids). So my nephew goes home and asks my sister what a lesbian is. My sister said - instead of a man and a woman loving each other and being together, it’s two women loving each other and being…

I don’t get the uproar about the Ghostbusters remake. They’re remaking everything now-a-days... and the original film had nothing to do with the characters’ “male-ness.” So why not re-make it with women?

I’ve watched all seven seasons of this show. I was okay with the finale, except for the slap by Diane. These two wonderful, powerful female characters are reduced to an act of physical violence (the slap) revolving around a man.

I’ve been a member of JustFab for a few years now. It’s really easy to skip a month - if you don’t see something you like or if you don’t have the money that month, you just skip and they don’t charge you a cent. This must be done in the first 5 days of the month, but I just set a reminder in my calendar.

They can't say shit or call someone a pussy... Yet other persons on Fox News can say the absolutely ridiculous right wing conservative bull that they do.
