When I make my own, much better adaptation of A Song of Ice and Fire for tv it will of course not have any props. All real weapons, all real armies. No prop violence; every decapitation, amputation, and stabbing will be real. The actress for Catelyn Tully will literally be killed and then brought back to life with…

His expression is one of such, ahem, otter delight.
It would be horribly tragic if my ability to protect myself or my family were to be taken away, but that’s exactly what Democrats are determined to do by banning semi-automatic handguns.
Except I am white with a big ole butt, from Oakland and was the appropriate age when the song came out. That song changed my attitude towards my butt, at least when it came on the radio or in the club. I was totally ashamed that I did not have a little butt that fit into waist 27 Levis, but this made me feel…

The staccato couplets in Manic Depression are as brilliantly sung as anything done in the last generation.
That was also my main takeaway from this.
Funnily enough, the current Reddit Consensus (tm) about Pao is that she was basically the fall-guy (gal?) CEO. They bring her in, she makes a whole bunch of changes, user shit-storm happens, they fire her, bring back the old CEO, users rejoice, and in their giddy joy, they conveniently fail to notice that the new…
From someone who knows, because this is what I do:
I keep thinking, if you don’t understand why this is important, you’ve never been one of two women in your PhD class of 15. Or one of three women in your cohort at work. Or though, maybe I’d want to do this in my career, and then remembered that 90% of people in that position are men. I cried the whole train ride home…
Best piece you’ve written in a while
I hope she uses her writing skills to keep speaking out against him and rape culture. Her voice is compelling, and even if this judge couldn’t bother to listen, others will.
