I think the “this particular movie is telling a story about a group that fits a very specific demographic” argument is more legitimate than a lot of other arguments. But it gets kind of silly when you think about how adept Hollywood is at shoehorning white people into every fucking movie. When Hollywood wants to tell…

Funny how “We were just reflecting reality” is a defense for not casting PoC but when they’re telling the story of real life PoC like with 21 it’s expecting too much to have those Asian-Americans be played by Asian actors.

Obviously Wall Street is not filled with handsome movie stars, and yet, the men in this story are portrayed by them.

So it’s okay to alter the real-life character in order for him to be played by someone who is very good-looking, but not okay to alter the character to be played by a woman, or even by a man with a…

That doesn’t make any damn sense. You’d have to be born before 1960 to qualify to be president in 1995. Back then, sonograms we’re well known, let alone the genetic testing we have today. So most if not all parents didn’t know whether the baby was a girl or boy until it was born. Which means no sex-selective…

Hey, your grandma has good advice.

Well, in fairness “we” includes the speaker. I know not everyone uses it correctly, but when he says “we need to be better at this,” that pronoun indicates he’s also talking about himself, so it’s not like he’s claiming innocence. It’s hypocritical to not practice what you preach, but it’s perfectly fine (laudable,…

Except the other stuff is arithmetic. Basic elementary school arthimetic. I think balancing a checkbook or doing a basic tax form is a good object lesson. But that’s not a class. It’s a way to write off kids as no worth teaching anything else.

To those saying, “Well, they aren’t paying as much as the rich tenants are!”

The high hook up rate must be because they’ll take anyone who doesn’t roll their eyes when they start telling them about their love of cross-fit.

The skinny mirror! I was like GTFO of here with that shit right now. PLEASE.

Yeah cause god forbid we have comprehensive policies like universal daycare, parental leave, social and community support systems ect. to try to bridge this gap on a societal level. That would just be craaaaazy!

I moved close enough to my new job that I can walk, and it was a wonderful decision. I know I'm lucky, though. I'd rather have a long commute than a roommate lol but if it doesn't bother you that much, it's an option.

I have a ridiculously self-indulgent gift comment to make: Mr.TARDIS surprised me with a reasonably priced sports car. Oh, my stars, I didn’t see that coming. My old car, which actually looks like a TARDIS (little Scion box, dark blue), is almost 10 years old and has 150K miles on it. 2015 has been a fuck-all of a…

That’s how I feel about the Kardashians, Real Housewives of Who Gives a Fuck Wherever, Miley Cyrus, any and all 20-something pop stars, all professional and collegiate sports but especially football, and a whole lot of other things : inescapable garbage bullshit that I’m tired of hearing about. But Star Wars? Bring it…

Is there a YMCA in your area? Because that’s always my go-to. It’s not as intimidating as a gym, and they have a great pool and most importantly: a hot tub. Here’s what I do twice a week:

Yeah, my brother in law once got my sister the big TV he’d been wanting for her birthday...

I didn’t have body images but instead made up stories for my Barbies’ to act out.

I dunno, I think it started out that way but there have been some storylines that made the female characters more interesting. Penny finding a kickass job and then getting an audition for a big movie and Leonard freaking out about the possibility of her success, Howard wanting kids and Bernadette refusing to give up…

I would say no but just got back from a vacation and my husband was all about some vacation sex and while vibratorless sex has its place, by day 3 I was missing the handy dandy vibrator. In fact, I plan on buying a smaller “travel sized” one for this purpose. Well, that and the one I currently have has a huge,…

Guess I cannot validate for the entire country. Any house I’ve visited in past 8 years has been no shoe household.
