I figured so, the majority of our generation was. Which is what makes the consistent infantilization stick in my craw. Expect us to care for ourselves and others independently from grade school, refuse to acknowledge our capability and forced early maturity, typecast us as nihilistic due to our resulting lack of faith…

It’s not just her, though.
The Right and the GOP are totally fine with shouting “But I’m a mom!!” while reducing funding for programs that help parents and children.

I’m sick of her throwing “being a mom” out there like it’s a job qualification.

This probably makes me sound like a horrible feminist, but I really don’t give a flying fart that you had kids and also worked, considering you have enough money to pay for good childcare and health insurance without having to worry about paying your rent.  I’m sick of her throwing “being a mom” out there like it’s a…

sarah believes being a woman trumps being a monster.

Bring back the 90 minute movie! I have a bad attention span for movies and almost never watch them nowadays because they’re all so damn long.

Way to prove you’re above Trumpian twitter pettiness, Marianne. Now, actualize yourself out of the race.

I’m confused. Is this a review of the film or the book?

At least the book was just as huge in scope. If we arent venturing to space with talking animals I’m not taking almost 3 hours of my life to watch your movie.

2 HOURS AND 50 MINUTES?
Sweet Christ on a cracker.
If the movie people are going to keep on doing this, we need to bring back the intermission.

Indeed. I didn’t necessarily want to inject class into the larger discussion of gender, but I find it absolutely telling what the priority of Mike Lee is, when Mr. Capitalism’s response to falling birth rates is to hector women to have more babies. When I want to attract more talent to my (hypothetical) business, you…

here we go

I was just going to say that it can’t be a recent photo. No plastic surgeon is that good

What a fricking nightmare of a week. A week ago Wednesday, my kids and I were vacationing at a cabin on a lake about 5 hours from home. Our doggie got away from the dogsitter (a piece of wood in the fence had gotten loose and I hadn’t noticed). We drove back home, abandoning the vacation, and spent the ENTIRE NEXT…

Shelter Cat Update!

I hope Bobby Finger will return to review the movie here as he is the most qualified to report on the accuracy of Charlize Theron playing Megyn Kelly.

It kind of irritates me that these horrible women get to have their stories told in a major movie and have themselves played by Oscar-winning actresses, after they spent years suppressing and denying the sexism and harassment in their field.....until it happened to them. THEN, suddenly it matters and someone needs to…

She’s such a phenomenal character actress. And she apparently manages to do it without becoming a Method Asshole like Bale or Leto.
