It's true what they say about scents and emotions...

PLEASE LET DOLLY PARTON GUEST-STAR; the world can end afterward, completed.

Netflix, you sly fox. How can we love you more?

This episode needs more Mellie.

There are three female television actors from the last 20-25 years that I think have proven themselves head and shoulders above the rest through both talent and prolific presence:
Julianna Marguiles, who probably only beats out Edie Falco because I have more nostalgia for ER than The Sopranos.
Allison Janney, who does…

Honestly, her resentment—feigned or real—made me chuckle. She put it to amusing use.

For the record, when I assigned this to Lindy she made ZERO mention of having not seen the show. Had she told me, I never would've put her in this position. I feel terrible. (And I'm only on Episode 2 myself.)

Serious question... have you masturbated? Have you learned your own body, what makes it feel good, which spots like to be touched? Nothing at all wrong with you if you haven't! For many women that takes time. But I'd start there, if I were you. Read some erotica, watch some steamy movies, touch yourself, see what you…

The show is a romantic comedy. It was pitched as a romantic comedy, is shot as a romantic comedy, and has always been marketed and described as a romantic comedy. It is really good at being a romantic comedy. I don't understand why people criticizing it for doing the thing it has always claimed to want to do.

When I worked there my older brother was going through a divorce because his wife had cheated on him with like 5 guys. For some reason she came through the drive through. I took her order and walked to the grill. I knew the guy making her food had a crush on me so I told him to make that one extra special. To this day…

When I worked at McDonald's, I only messed with a customer's food once. I'm not terribly proud of it, but I did do it Our manager on duty was gone from the store, so it was me (the "grill cook") and a 16-year-old (the cashier) who wasn't supposed to be scheduled that night and was pretty new.

Okay. I'm going to address this particular complaint because it came up multiple times during the making of this chart, but...yes, RuPaul's Drag Race was included in the data analysis. Just not in the top 25 shows overall (it was #178 according to IMDb). You can check the spreadsheet linked in the post just below the…

She has a point. That's exactly how other entertainment industries works. The Seahawks all retired when they won the Super Bowl, Beyoncé will never make another album since she broke all those records, and tom hanks hasn't been in a movie since "Big."

Actually, (s)he picked a great example. Working dog breeders and show breeders breed for wildly different traits (trainability and longevity of life vs conformation to breed standards), and so get different dogs. Hip dysplasia is not the same issue in working GSD's as show ones because they weren't bred to have the…

THIS. My super conservative republican brother in law was reading I Am America (And So Can You) a few years ago and I commented that I liked Stephen Colbert too - I am always looking for things we have in common, since we are ideologically pretty distinct. He was befuddled, saying "I didn't think you would like…

Conservatives. They all think that Colbert is REALLY an ultra-O'Reilly type, when he's actually a parody of the same. It's been like that for years - he got invited to speak at the White House Correspondent's Dinner during the Bush years. The real lefty Colbert showed up for that one and verbally burned the whole room…

Don't worry guys, I got this!

I feel like I immediately went there because to me, the face of "victimhood" is a white woman. A ton of Lifetime movies and news coverage of missing white women probably doesn't help. It's pretty fucked that factually black women have a higher ratio of violent crime against them, but I don't really think of us as…

It's a big misconception that "open relationship" is synonymous with "anything goes". Open relationships depend just as much, if not more, on trust than a typical monogamous relationship. It bums me out when I hear people saying things like, "she probably wanted to be the cool wife". It really minimizes the fact that…

As a woman in STEM, here are the things from my childhood that got me interested in science:
