If they had admitted to him being on the spectrum and, you know, actually talked about ASD and life with ASD, the show could have made an actual difference. Like, throw in some information and explanations as to why Sheldon acts the way he does and how he sees things. But NOPE!

If he was admittedly on the spectrum they could’ve done something with it. Instead they made his behaviour the most difficult behavioural issues associated with ASD but on steroids and then just removed anything that could be ASD entirely, just making him someone who seems to enjoy fucking with people.

The only thing “wrong” with Sheldon is that he’s on the spectrum and he’s never had a single person in his life acknowledge that fact and help him to understand how he can relate to the world successfully. Once you know and care about someone with ASD, the show becomes absolutely unwatchable for how they (the show…

Yeah, and I’m kind of done with shows that implicitly (or explicitly) make fun of/harass people who are smart. Like, not every good scientist or smart person is a condescending elitist asshole, a savant, and/or completely socially inept. WE GET IT, YOU LOVE TO MAKE FUN OF NERDS. This is not what’s going to help the…

I have a small wager with a Trump voting coworker. If Trump is reelected he wins, anything else, I win. I reminded him of the wager on the phone this morning. He pulled the birther card and that was pretty much the end of the conversation.

Ditto. Remember that psychological study last year that found when some people are faced with blatant proof of how incorrect their political convictions are, they just double down on them? Exactly.

Yep. I’ve noticed all of my trump voter friends on facebook have fallen silent the past week or so. You can FEEL their shame. It’s lovely.

This is good Kinja.

IMHO, the movie-version Harley’s appeal comes from the fact that it’s relatively easy and cheap for women to play slutty-Harley for Hallowe’en (basically temp hair dye, short shorts, a tiny crop t-shirt, high boots and a baseball bat).

This just proves that is the worst possible response.

right, the hand flat on the bicep is the key, her hand is up and is rolling up her sleeve.

This is a fun fact about DC merchandizing that always fascinates me. In terms of who moves the most branded product for the company, Harley’s WAY up there just below Bats and Supes, but way above Wonder Woman.

I can tell you exactly why he looks different.

As I fan of the artist and Harley, I’m so glad you brought this to my attention. So good.

For a great take on Harley, I suggest you look up Sjtepan Sejic warm-up sketch comic about her. You can find the full thing here:

“I don’t see race” people are the worst racists. I mean, other than people who commit hate crimes.

I particularly like his repeatedly referring to her as “Texting Floozy.” I’m guessing we’re about a day away from seeing the “Nice Guys Can’t Get a Date Cuz Bitches Only Date Jerks and Won’t Blow Me on Command” manifesto he posted on an MRA subreddit.

I also bet he blames his inability to get dates on feminism.

Because for all of their hot fucking race takes, assholes like Schilling are too afraid to actually say what they mean. So they pussyfoot around it by claiming to care about racial injustice while questioning every instance they hear of. We have a very significant portion of our population that thinks this is a…

It’s a situation where something that can be legitimately helpful for those with anxiety, ADHD, or other mental illnesses has been usurped by the ‘cool kids’ and made into something far more obnoxious. Instead of the two or three kids in a schoolroom that used them to help focus on that quiz, it’s now used by half…
