While I really did love the movie itself, I'll be honest: there's only one person I really care about seeing in the second movie's credits, and that person is Trent Reznor.

Jessica Chastain is gorgeous, but I'm reminded of advice I was given as a small red-headed child: redheads should never wear red. Is that wrong? Or outdated, or something?
I knoooow. I'm actually just starting season 5 (late bloomer, I am), and Prop Joe has been a favorite for a long time. This is so sad.
Heeeyyyy cool I can't figure out how to edit my post, so I guess I'll put this in another reply where people will hopefully see it.
I'm sorry, I didn't word the question well. I wasn't asking WHY we have more unplanned pregnancies, but how those three statistics interact numerically. It was a pure math question, unrelated to the content.
Ah haaa. Okay, thanks. I think you got my question better than some other people who replied, but that's really my fault — I don't think I worded it well. I wasn't questioning why poor women have more unplanned pregnancies, but how those three statistics interacted, if that makes sense. Wish I'd done more math in…
Cripes. And to forestall anything else, I just wanna say that I am vehemently pro-choice. I can see some anti-choice people questioning the numbers as some kind of attack on the content, and that's not what this is. I'm just really puzzled.
So... stupid math question. I'm really befuddled. How can poor women have 5x the unintended pregnancy rate, 5x the abortion rate, AND 6x the unplanned birth rate? I understand that some of the abortions probably come from planned pregnancies (for various reasons, like birth defects or partners leaving or etc), but…
Replying because I love this a lot. Smashing!
She pretty much always wins the internet, because GWS is the bestest webcomic. <3
Sayid >= Sawyer >>> Boone > all the other dudes. And Ben has a special space reserved in my heart, away from all this silly shallow judging*, because he will always be my Bug-Eyed Ben.
Oz is a dreamboat. Hubba hubba!
Do you have any advice for friends of extremely anxious people on how to encourage them to get (better) help? One of my best friends gets eaten alive by her anxiety on a daily basis; I see it negatively affect every aspect of her life. She has a therapist, but I honestly haven't seen much in the way of improvement.
And I was all excited, too. Sadface.
The high recidivism rate tells me we need to find better therapy and solutions. It's one of the things I hope to study, if I ever manage to get back into school. My opinion — and I know it's not a popular one — is that Megan's Law and pedophile panic compound the existing problems faced by people who actually want…
That was exactly my reaction. I'm glad to see other people thinking the same.
Rewatching as well, with my housemate who's never seen it! Juliet is fantastic, and Sayid is always right. Except for that one time when he wasn't. Those two characters break my heart.
Your family history sounds very similar to mine, and you're right to be aware and concerned. You absolutely should be worried about yourself. What worked for me, and YMMV, is setting strict rules for myself regarding drinking. No drinking two nights in a row, no drinking late on a work night, etc. Basic ground…
The "going to work late and still drunk and stinky" bit stands out, to me. Huge red flag. You can't make them stop, though; they have to do that themselves. Trite but true. You CAN remove yourself from that situation so you don't get pulled down by it.
Absolutely. Quiet alcoholism can be no less devastating, and I think it's a lot harder for such a person to internalize that it's a problem. Recognizing that takes a lot of self-awareness and strength.
