I haven’t reviewed in two years (divorce, move, job change, etc...lots of things in the way), but prior to that, I reviewed for five year. Let me tell you, autowriters *overemphasize* the significance of an intuitive interface, because it’s just such a huge relief to get one.

Tree Trunks sounds exactly like my mother. My daughter watches the show just to hear her grandmother’s voice again, now that she’s gone. So your argument is invalid, and Jake will have some suggestions on where you can put it.

The article later says “Easter said he didn’t disclose the incident because he doesn’t consider himself to be a rape victim.”

Please revisit this headline.

Oh, come on. Just sing “The Neverending StoreeeeEEEEEEEE!” with the rest of us whenever Dany hops on Falc...er...Drogon.

“1. I knew Shireen was going to die as soon as Davos handed her that elk. Guarantee he comes back and finds it on the funeral pyre, and that’s how he knows what Stannis did.”

As a parent with a student currently applying to colleges — yes, yes, a thousand times yes. It’s astonishing to see the way that universities have become self-marketing machines who are no longer interested in being good at the thing they’re supposed to do.

There does seem to finally be a consensus emerging about us (I was born in ‘77). I never knew what generation I was a member of, but recently I’ve read several sources label us late gen X. I think it works. I’ve acquired a black leather jacket unironically, and explored some of that post-punk I ignored as a teenager,…

This was well-written. Especially the Dusty Springfield bit.

Good point. I suppose that, more specifically, I’m saying that college administrators arent public servants. They’re hired by boards of regents and paid to protect and improve the public image of the college. So they’re rewarded for making it hard to prove a rape has ever happened on their campus, and they’re not…

If you’re asking a factual question, then as I understand it, the legal basis comes from Title IX of the Civil Rights Act, which governs a lot of gender discrimination issues in schools that receive any federal funding. The Obama justice department has interpreted it to mean that schools have a legal responsibility to…

Thank you for writing this. There is so much misinformation, and there are so many people spinning every aspect of this situation, that it’s refreshing and powerful to read something from someone involved.

As I understand it, and only from media reports, she initially filed a complaint with the school, which did its internal investigation and found him “not responsible.” There are disputes about whether that investigation was adequate. She later filed a police report. He claims that the district attorney told him they…

If that’s where this actually goes, and I’m hoping it isn’t. Showing Theon’s reaction rather than the rape itself might simply have been a way to avoid having to act out an actual rape.

The game plan is fundraising. Nothing more.

Because racism exists.

Yep. That’s certainly how the actor read him. Someone complained on Twitter that BW had been turned into a love interest that needed saving, and Ruffalo replied “that’s weird. I thought he turned Banner into a love interest that needed saving.”

I like this reading.

I love this interpretation. It hadn’t even occurred to me in the theater. But yes, she handles Hulk alone, with nothing but her wits. And when she isn’t around, the biggest alpha male of the group effectively says “Oh, Nat’s not here? Ok, I’ll do it. But I’m gonna need a suit of armor around my suit of armor, and…

All that, and you forget that SHIELD was dismantled two movies ago, but Nick Fury somehow has a helicarrier (filled with some of the same SHIELD agents we saw lose their jobs two movies ago) available on short notice somewhere in eastern Europe.
