But... But.... Why? I believe it, but I don't understand the reasoning.

I was thinking Ruth Wilson, but maybe that’s because she played a murderess (who also killed her parents) on Luther:

Rufio is the best and not enough people cosplay as him.

A movie which is sorely underrated.

Yeah, me too. Once nothing happened after Sandy Hook, I just don’t know what else we’re supposed to wait for. This is my home, but I hate what a sorry excuse for apologists it has become in some ways, and I don’t know how to fix it.

Yeah, I feel sad because excited, costumed fans are a part of the fun. But in a country where we can’t bring ourselves to regulate guns, I guess we have to regulate everyone else. It’s an understandable policy, but I’m disappointed in the society we live in, not the theater for trying to keep people safe despite it.

She’s been a favorite punching bag from various angles since the 90’s, so I’m not surprised.

It’s okay. My first pregnancy was not fun, pretty much the entire time (don’t worry, most people feel better after the first trimester). I was glad to be having a child, and I love being a mother. But when it came time to have another, even though I really wanted another child, the thought of pregnancy again was more…

I decided that it was in the best interest of my mental and physical health to work as a banquet server/ bartender.

D’s don’t get you into Harvard or Yale Law schools.

I also wonder if the tech industry working culture and expectations of women in social realms has an effect, too. Women are more likely to be caretakers of children and the elderly, and so may seek out jobs and fields which allow that kind of flexibility. From what I understand from my tech friends, the amount of…

I think they have succeeded to their base, but in the grand scheme of politics, they failed miserably. Conservatives who already hated Clinton would never vote for her anyway. In a presidential election their opinion of Clinton count for exactly zero lost votes. But to liberals and moderates, I think they made her…

I appreciate (ha!) your point that praise is often gendered. I think you are correct that certain things that are expected of women, like housework and childcare, gets extra attention when a man does it. I think of the very sweet viral video of the single dad who learned to style hair for his young daughter. He ended…

I would really like a GIF of this now, by some talented artist.

I loved the Ewoks because for once, Leia got to do something on her own without sitting in the background or getting rescued by someone else. By the time she’s found, she’s already handled the situation while the boys get themselves nearly roasted to death.

Sure, but this study comes out of the University of Georgia and presumably is assessing most people in a relationship in the U.S. Barring certain U.S. subcultures and immigrant populations with different traditions, generally saying “thank you” as a matter of course is the standard. It’s possible that GiGimpeach’s…

I don’t really understand that attitude. Thank you is not just for going above and beyond, it is for recognizing someone else doing what they are supposed to be doing, as well. It’s called common courtesy for a reason, basic appreciation is never superfluous.

“I will hold you close in a thankful heart!”

I’m gonna file this one under “uh, yeah. duuuuh.”

Make Jesus famous? I didn’t think he was really that unknown.
