I’m always shocked at just how small actors are in person. I’ve worked SXSW Film Conference for years, and the actresses especially are super thin, generally not tall, and their heads look gigantic on their tiny bodies. It’s crazy how seeing them on screen (with other actor-size people next to them) vs in person…

“Julia Stiles will always be my hero for her perfectly tempestuous performance as Kat Stratford in 10 Things I hate About You.”

It’s like those Fox News polls a while back, where they had a bunch of statistics like “97% of poor people have refrigerators.” Uh no, they don’t own refrigerators. They have refrigerators because those are basic appliances that come with most rental properties.

Talk about comparing apples to oranges. LA County’s population is 10 times larger than Bergen County. How is that even a remotely comparable problem? If we’re adding random examples that have nothing to do with the conversation, I hear Switzerland doesn’t have homeless people, either. (Not directed at you, but at Ben…

Yes, my undergrad was at a school heavily focused on engineering, and people always scoffed at my liberal arts majors, mocking it for being “too easy” and that it wasn’t marketable. I’ve found that liberal arts degrees, while less focused, do provide an ample and varied skillset that can make you a fit at a variety of…

Stacey Abrams went to my alma mater! So excited for her!

Nah. This theater is always having special screenings of some kind (they have running series like Tough Guy Cinema, Afternoon Tea, Girlie Night, Sing-alongs, Weird Wednesday, etc etc), so they just capitalized on a big moment. It’s very in line with their typical programming.

Thank you for adding that. I was about to. “Their Austin location,” indeed. The screening was at the Ritz (the smallest theater they have) on a Tuesday night. Not exactly prime movie-watching time.

LOL her discomfort is so palpable in that last gif!

The books kill it so badly. How many Quentyn Martell chapters did I have to read until he accidentally set himself on fire via teasing an angry dragon?! Such wasted book real estate. Martin desperately needs an editor.

I. AM. HERE. FOR. IT.

Ivanka is married, though?

Maybe it’s the smile that makes a difference? It doesn’t seem quite so telenovela when Michelle did it.

These days, it’s pretty common for students who are in honors/AP classes to be on a 5.0 grade point scale. Basically they add 10 percentage points (or the equivalent grade points) to whatever grade they earn in the honors class, because of how much more rigorous it is than the on-level classes, which means a lot of…

And it creates this odd forced intimacy that neither party may be ready for. Do you hold hands? Do you share food? Are they going to be judging the way you react to certain jokes? It’s a date for once you’re a little more established as a couple. Honestly, though, I doubt there’s any date with this guy that isn’t weak…

This video is amazing.

I don’t disagree, just poking a little fun. I did like Merlin for the most part, though it got wackier and wackier during its run.
