You are an ass.

Doesn't this like, traumatize the fish? What if it rattles their tiny brains and breaks something? What if they can't reproduce? What if the bear at the end of the tunnel cannot catch his fish? What if?

Don't you just love how no matter how many hours or years you put in, no matter the quality of your work, and no matter how many hours or years you'll put in after your leave, the only thing that matters to some people is three measly months of inconvenience while your body recovers and you sustain the life of the…

How would you know she had a warped perspective if you're not even in the field?

I'm the one with warped perspective? You're the one who read my post as "blah blah blah white dudes blah blah blah blah." It's the only part you read. It's like you're literally unable to consider anything or any point that isn't about white dudes. It's a weird blind spot, man.

think of it this way: it is very likely, in a woman's life, that she'll need maternity leave at some point if she (and usually a partner) want to start a family. It's just pretty inevitable and can't be scheduled like a backpacking trip. Employers, if they want to attract all top talent (including women) will…

wow, thanks so much for the hearty mansplanation of maternity leave! You're right, taking time off to shove a watermelon out of my cooter IS just a delicious, wonderful choice I'm making - just like a man wanting to backpack through Europe! In fact, I really planned badly by not having my husband do the whole…

Correct me if I am wrong, but this is the essential difference between first (1970s) and second wave (2000s) feminism.

Because she realizes she can do whatever the hell she wants to do with her body while the rest if the world (read: you) goes about their pearl clutching accordingly?

Watch out: the men defense force will preemptively jump to defend their sexual fantasies before anyone points anything out.

That is really not the impression I got of it at all. Oh well. We've all got different background experiences that we bring to viewing our media.

Well, now you don't have to, since he's no longer working on the show, and the series will continue without him.

I tend to marathon shows at work, so I get that message at least once a week. You know what, Netflix? I fucking do want to watch 7 straight hours of Supernatural. You don't know my life!

Partridge and others have stated that there's still a great team behind Clarence and no one should be boycotting the show over this.

I think that being bipolar, being in a manic state with psychotic symptoms, and having reality testing issues does diminish your capacity to some extent. It doesn't make what he did any less serious, any less despicable, or any less of a crime. The question of whether he did it as a result of suffering from a mental…

oh bull shit- the higher ups CHOSE not to deal with it appropriately because that was easier. it wasn't ignorance or helplessness, it was calculated profit. hard stop.

If taking Page's mental illness into account means focusing more on effective treatment and rehabilitation, then yes, let's take it into account. Ideally we'd focus on rehabilitation for everyone, but if we can only do it if someone has a diagnosed mental disorder, I'll take it.

Grad school, winter break I go to visit a friend from college. We end up crashing at her boyfriend's place one evening. Her boyfriend's roommate was a Marine, had just gotten back to the states after being deployed for over a year.... Yada, yada, yada, the sex was good but having a man eat out your pussy after he's…
