I actually think Dickinson’s poetry is often very funny, but I’m not sure it’s the kind of humor that will translate to a 21st Century movie. Maybe if Ingmar Bergman (also much funnier than people tend to acknowledge) returned from the grave to direct.

This reminds of a story a friend told me. She went to a small college and they had a series of attacks by a rapist. The city floated the idea of a curfew for all women after dark. The women responded that they thought it would be a good idea that all the MEN stay home after dark instead. Why is the default always that…

I listened to daytime right-wing talk radio for a few years in the early to mid ‘90s. Boortz, Limbaugh, Hannity, etc. 1) I >needed< to slow down as I was getting WAY too many tickets cause I tend to speed when listening to rock 2) sorta a know your enemy thing. Hannity is slime-and other, worse, things. But, someone…

It’s a sex reveal, not a gender reveal. However all of these insufferable expecting parents probably think “sex reveal party” sounds too saucy. I’m really over these reveals and they make me cranky. I think I’m now officially an Old.

Well if this is all true, and even if it isn’t, I expect an article detailing some aspect of this issue for the next 500 days. Also, I would expect that Fox is going to have this on every fucking show, every fucking day, from now until eternity, since email security is an issue so near and dear to them. Also, when…

I maintain that the fact that Anthony Weiner is still alive to go to prison proves that Hillary Clinton is not the murderer the Pizzagate crazies make her out to be, because if she had cause to murder anyone ever it was Anthony Fucking Weiner.

She also has no idea what words like ‘otherwise’ mean

as a person from the south, i grew up on chick-fil-a - it was a staple. but once they started funneling money into prop 8, i noped right the f out - i hadn’t had it since.

If we’re throwing all context out the window, well then removing a child from the only home and parents they’ve ever known is also a crime, called “kidnapping.” But how about we acknowledge the complexities of real life that the woman in fact acknowledges in her story, that all at the same time there exist some…
