The problem is that there’s a clashing of two very serious realities.

I, too, am a Capulet.

I was really, really hoping she’d be on Star Trek (TV, 2017), but this is okay with me.

The show thus far largely takes place in Scotland in the 1740s. This isn’t an instance of racially based casting, it’s a case officially biased history.

It’s been my purely anecdotal experience that soft towels require the most rewashings unon being brought home to get rid of all that excess fuzz.

I’m hoping this will dominate the news about Kesha for the next few days instead of that tidbit of context-free information that’s been floating around about her being unwilling to say under oath that she was raped back in 2011. The cartwheels some people on the internet are willing to do to make it seem that every…

Their job is to save innocent people, but in the proposed hypothetical they kill an innocent person. That’s unquestionably and absolutely a contradiction.

Losing someone in a tragedy earns you sympathy, not expertise. That’s why when someone talks about what a family member who lost someone in some tragedy like 9/11 or Columbine speaks about their wishes, their opinions on the matter shouldn’t get special attention, even if you happen to agree with them. I was glad to…

I really wish we could get a landscape view in Apple Music and for whatever you call the default screen that shows the application icons. My iPhone is also my GPS and turn by turn, and having Music as the alternate screen while my phone is in its holder would be nice.

I recall quite un-fondly the tidal wave of “YOU CAN’T SAY THAT!!!” every time I openly disagreed with or questioned Pope Benedict’s conservative, un-Christlike (compassionless, selfish, intolerant, elitist, etc.) positions from Catholics and Protestants alike during Benedict’s embarrassingly short tenure. He was the…

No worries! Knowing intervals in and of itself is no small thing when it comes to musical analysis, and you did remember the basic idea from one lecture in class however many years ago. That’s nothing to sneeze at.

Open fifths*.

I never complain when a video has Mila Kunis or Jennifer Lawrence, so I can’t say a thing when a video has Chris Hemsworth. Attractive people are attractive.

If people want change, they need to be shouting this from the rooftops, posting pictures and videos of dogs which have been poisoned as a result of criminal negligence. They deserve to be in prison, but it seems like public outrage is weirdly low despite the fact that an entire town was poisoned for months.

Not to be picky, but premeditated murder and grand larceny are the kind of drama that I think can be toxic to a relationship, particularly a new one. I try not to be too judgmental when I’m seeing someone new, but I think a line has to be drawn somewhere. People are entitled to their own value systems, but so am I and…

I think I could forgive them making Mulder a bit out of touch if the episode was even remotely watchable. I know The X-Files is famous for being inconsistent, but they’ve had a lot of time to prepare for a limit run of episodes and the show has been little more than a chore.

When I was growing up, I had a friend named Lolita. Her parents immigrated from another country and culture in which there wasn’t really this other meaning to the name. She had to face this kind of treatment by ignorant people who didn’t seem to understand that making associations of this kind with a name real people…

Legalistic nonsense? Words have meanings and I don’t need to get my j.d. or pass the bar to know that calling one particular body type normal implies something about other body types, even if that wasn’t necessarily the intent of the author. Jeez.

Accused rapists, yes, it would seem.
