It is shitty, and I’m over it. The article was trash, and trying to excuse it or paper over it by gaysplaining to the rest of us that degrading “reading” is inherently part of gay culture is shitty.

So it wasn’t homophobic, it was gate-keeping using in-group language and descriptions that most people wouldn’t recognize in context. That isn’t much better.

Homo here, and holy hell, am I beyond sick of Media Gays and their screeds about who is or is not Gaying the Right Way.

“Plus, the “what if he just wants to fuck around in office” is WAY too close to “a woman will be too moody on her period1!!” to me.”

Yeah, the whole “he’s a gay man, of course he’s going to be a messy slut in the white house!” angle is extremely homophobic.

Agreed. I like looking out the window. I like having the light. I pick a window seat specifically for that reason. If you hate it so much, then you pick the window seat, and close the shade.

Joyless monsters, all of you. First, it was don’t recline seats that recline and go upright and now it is don’t open blinds meant to be opened and closed?

So he didn’t... climb a ladder and look into the facility? Him climbing the ladder isn’t going to bring more attention to this issue (especially when all the other candidates are doing it). And I don’t know that looking in is going to change his mind if he already believes that what’s being done is wrong and that he…

So they’re all using these kids as political props, but Pete gets shit for it because he didn’t do it from 3 feet off the ground.

You can’t be mad that Repub’s played by the same rules set in place by the Dem’s in the past.  The pack the court proposal is stupid. When Dem’s are in control they’ll pack the court to get a majority. Once the Repub’s regain control don’t you expect them to do the same thing? Don’t touch that aspect of the court.…

What if they just decided to pack the court now? I don’t think you’d be too happy about that. Just be careful what you wish for. Changing rules because you can’t win is never the best strategy.

Suppose Trump and McConnell announce today they are going to add 10 more justices of their choosing to the court. What’s the logical argument from the pro-pack crowd that they shouldn’t be able to? I mean, I get it from Paul Blest, who by his own admission has been a terrible student throughout his life, but how do…

Atwood isn’t writing it herself, but she’s overseeing the writing and still has total control over the story.

When the camera turns after the June/Serena shouting match, and we see hundreds of Handmaids, guards and Fred, I laughed. This is the “jump the shark” moment of this show. This moment is something comedies do as a joke punchline, not something that has to be on a show pretending to be super-dramatic and serious.

He heard she was Lebanese. 

No, they haven’t.

Say what you want about Stephanopoulus, but he knows how to handle a dissembling blowhard. He did it everyday for years with Clinton. The difference here is that Clinton is actually intelligent. Trump is a complete syphilitic dullard who has to be fed a steady diet of Adderall and nootropics to keep him awake let…

She won’t get fired, she’ll be re-assigned to his campaign staff, and there will be NO CONSEQUENCES for her.

Shark Week made me hyper aware of other sharks, and I find myself constantly comparing myself to them. As a result, I just swim and swim all day long to keep fit. I feel like if I stop swimming I’ll die.

Not everyone is naturally a perfect hammerhead shape.
