It's fascinating to date across class - but even more strange when you cross class lines visiting your own family. My father is decidedly upper class, I fit squarely in the middle with some trouble keeping things up, and my mom (who my dad divorced over 20 years ago) is definitely living below the poverty line. I used…

As a member of the LGBT tribe, I'm willing to call selfies gay if it deters Kid Rock from taking them.

I am the Patrick character, especially from this episode. Looking back at my 20-something behavior, I was definitely the Patrick of my group of friends, and I'm grateful that none of my friends have pointed it out, because I deserve it for how I acted at the time. The cringing I did at at Patrick's assholishness…

I might have been high on cold medicine at the time, but - weren't there two Legolas guys at the party? I had the impression that the Legolas that Patrick was introduced to (who he thought was Link) was different than the one he came back to talk to and try to kiss later in the episode. Like he was being so clueless…

I really hope that it doesn't take being trans to get trans issues right, or we're going to be marginalized forever. I know plenty of cis people who do get it right, so I strongly feel it's not too much to ask that people who are advocating for an issue do the work to understand what they're doing.

I thought so. :)

I'm not a fan because of his not-terribly-thoughtful discussion of trans issues around Dallas Buyer's Club. He was pretty ignorant of some serious trans issues and he made light of trans experiences.

You made those last two, up, right?

Really? That's surprising. I have a friend who trains service dogs and they are very strict about teaching the dog when they are "on duty" and when they are off and the dogs know and behave accordingly. I'm surprised the people who have service dogs would let them subvert the training. That's got to be super confusing…

Please. I can get kittens just by putting cat food on my porch. I don't need ISIS for that. They can keep the Nutella.

Like Erin says - "No one cares about your boner, guys."

It should be you on the Jumbotron with Taylor, Adultosaur. I'm sure you would be the bomb.

So, Fallon is Adultosaur?

I'll bet Naya could go over those questions better if she actually looked at them instead of the ceiling.

Possibly. We don't know. Those of us who are non-binary are really only finding one another and understanding different ways to talking about who we are outside of the rigid male/female structures in the last few years. She may have considered herself non-binary. It's really hard to know when we don't have her own…

I'm leaving explicit instructions for how to gender me if something happens to me. I would hate to have someone else control what my obituary said. Not that I'll actually have any say once I'm gone or even care but....

Rand Paul, you don't want to play this game. You will not like the pinterest board I make for you, douchecanoe.

The Times reviews both commercial and literary fiction. But they review a lot more men's commercial fiction than women's, and the men's gets grouped under "general fiction" and women get lumped under "chick lit."

I find that weird, though, because... I dunno. I hate that crime is so glamorized, when in real life it's fucked up and mundane and almost always driven by things that we don't usually see onscreen (except for like, The Wire) - drug desperation, complete sexism and controlling of women, racism...

She cares because:
