I keep looking for Sam Kinison and Tawny Kitaen to show up.

Holy wow. This looks so awkward, I though tit was a badly 'shopped pic.

I only just learned that he has some pretty severe disorders and has been on and off anti-psychotics for years. Apparently, when's he's up, he is the most charismatic and charming man out there. When he's unmedicated, well, that doesn't salvage that night for you but I'm guessing that's probably a factor in what you…

Hey! That poster, Kim, gave you no reason to doubt she has worked very hard to destroy those families and seek that attention omg.

Preach. I used 'serious' to indicate that I gave a largely long-distance relationship a go for a little short of two years. I suspect that if I had actually wanted something that better approximated a 'serious' relationship, I might have opted for someone I saw more than twice in that second year. I loved being…

Although I've flinged here and there, my last actual relationship ended in 1995. That's right. I am on my way to hitting the twenty-year mark without being in any sort of serious dating relationship. (ETA if you're worried/nosy about such things, I was twenty-two when that relationship ended.) I feel like…

You know what's really fucking depressing about this? He got a harsher sentence than he would have received if he had raped a living victim.

I'm sorry getting the procedure done was such a hassle for you. Probably my age (I was 36 or 37, IIR) helped shut down protests from doctors about having the procedure as did my family medical history. I was taken aback to discover some women have to additionally have meet with a psychiatrist to get an all-clear on…

I opted to be childless — the tubal-ligation-to-avoid-pregnancy, non-murdering-a-toddler kind of childless — and I can't imagine how he could do what he did. I see so many people sneering at everyone who initially believed this guy didn't intentionally kill his child, but they seem to miss the part where most people…

I have a couple of degrees in chemistry as well as some dear friends who are firmly invested in woo-woo crap, so I have been exposed to a great deal of actual research and articles that are based on how the author feels something should work. I'll just stick with the disclaimer provided by the howdoeshomeopathywork…

Yes. That evidence is called the placebo effect. It's brilliantly effective in its way.

I think it might actually be even better than http://www.howdoeshomeopathywork.com/ and that site has been a favourite of mine for years.

When it comes to being hit with some sort of personal news, the bigger the personal emotional impact the news has, the quieter I get and the deeper into my head I go. Before I learned to manage my PTSD, I would even dissociate and have fugues. I haven't had problems with those blackouts in years (yay!), but they for…

My resolve has been eroding. Some of it has been due to national news here in the States, but I think my breakdown regarding troll avoidance started when the shootings at UCSB happened and all of the assholes rose up in the good name of their beloved misogyny while also concurrently insisting so what if the murderer…

Another atheist, non-fan of the Catholic church (or any others) who likes this pope well enough, too. I would so love to see him (Francis, btw, Benedict was the last guy) lead with progressive, liberal, intersectional feminist action and for the Vatican to follow his leadership. However, that one time the Pope…

Minnelli didn't send it. The gentleman who sent it is her publicist, but he didn't send it for her.

Oh, there's certainly reason to suspect Carroll. I'm not arguing that. And, yes, I do know there was an abrupt chill between Carroll and the Liddells when Alice was eleven. There's all sorts of circumstantial evidence suggesting he shared the fictional Humbert Humbert's predilections. That's my only point: it IS…

It's unknown whether Carroll molested any children. http://www.smithsonianmag.com/arts-culture/l…

Whether Carroll was a child molester remains unknown. I grabbed just one of the myriad articles on the subject from a reliably neutral source, The Smithsonian. http://www.smithsonianmag.com/arts-culture/l…

And, no, I will not watch anything by Polanski or Allen and I do not listen to anything by Jackson. The…

Very pissy. He's insisting he totally WOULD TOO ask a dudeful CEO the EXACT THING. As for why he has never done so? I'm guessing 'Because SHUT UP is why' would be his response. http://brooklyn.news12.com/news/matt-laue…

If you have access to FB and are interested, here's his entire response, straight from the…
