I know, early voting yada yada, but this country and its voters just fill me with despair and disgust.

Agreed. Never understood the hype. (I was just going to sit here and think it, but your courage inspired me to join you against the inevitable comment backlash!)

I’ve never understood the super-long nails either. Why do you want to make your own life more difficult?

Only one comment: I do not understand the attraction of nails of that length.

I do not doubt that in the least. I grew up in an abusive home where the scenario you describe was my life.

In Canada, a 1990 Supreme Court decision set a precedent for the use of what was called “battered woman syndrome” as a legal defence to the killing of an abusive spouse. It removed the need for the threat to be immediate (as it would need to be for a standard self-defence claim). The court found that abused spouses…

Christianity?

You may be joking but I never mentioned religion, that was your assumption. Anyway, no real followers of Islam were involved in this. If anything it’s those that twist the teachings into a complex pretzel of misguided falsehoods.

It takes a very special type of coward to volunteer to blow up kids. I cannot even imagine the beyond fucked up mindsets that did this. Fuck them, fuck all of them that were involved.

Never seen so many assholes show up on twitter so fast. If you are gonna go on Twitter be ready to get slapped by a SERIOUS wave of racism and xenophobia. Be ready, be strong, conserve your energy, pick your battles and then those who go way too far - fucking let them have it. 

Wait...wait...so you’re saying he’s a pleasant human being...different than the negative snap judgments the internet makes about everyone around Swift? This... is blowing... my mind.

I (somewhat) know Joe Alwyn (worked on a movie together). He’s exceptionally sweet and very adorable. Don’t think they met through their agents as they’re repped at different places, but I’m perfectly okay with them dating as he was an unwaveringly lovely person to be around when we were working together.

I used to smoke and I miss it. Frankly the reason why I quit is because it’s been deemed un-cool and you take a ton of shit for it. I don’t think anyone is pro-smoking anymore because of social norms, when I saw this story a few weeks ago I immediately thought these celebs were going to take a popularity hit because…

How can someone be so thirsty with so much water around?

I posted this is in the initial AHCA post, but there were 600+ comments so I’m sure it got lost. I just wanted to share my experience today in DC because it was so utterly sickening:

I am literally shaking with fear and rage. My bipolar disorder will cause any premium I pay to increase by 208%. I ALREADY can’t afford the premiums.

This is just all too typical of Hollywood movie-making. You can’t “just” adapt something, you have to put your unique spin on it.

Poirot wore bow-ties, not neckties, and even had he worn a necktie, probably wouldn’t have been so sloppy when tying a Half-Windsor. Also, given that the Windsor knot would have been fairly new at the time, Poirot would not have worn it. He was still wearing pince-nez in the 1930s.

No, worries, mademoiselle, the oldest hipster in Brooklyn is on the case.

Looks like they blew the special effects budget on a Snapchat mustache filter.
