And Essie Davis is a goddess.

A second recommendation for Miss Fisher’s. Tons of costume porn, and for a crime procedural, it spends a good bit of time focusing on the social issues of the time.

It’s not the Fitzgeralds, but try Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries? 1920's Melbourne that, admittedly, is about crime, but very few (if any?) gangster plotlines.

Yeah, I’ve lived here all my life and was 18 when Jacob was abducted, you’re spot on. I was at work when the news broke that his remains had been found and there were people running from floor to floor making sure everyone knew. Granted I work at a library, but still.

We left Minnesota when I was a child before the Jacob went missing and I came back as a young adult years after. There was a noticeable difference. Before that all the horrible stories of missing dead kids where from other places. (Not that things didn’t happen, but nothing that grabbed the media like this.)

I’m from the MN and was in preschool when Jacob was abducted. We still left a light on for him, and us kids would caution each other about being out at night by just saying his name. The Wetterling family’s tragedy is definitely part of the MN psyche.

I want to take a moment for those who live outside of Minnesota to try and express How Very Seriously And Deeply the people here take the Wetterling case. I moved here in 2000, and it was mere weeks before it was explained to me that one left one’s porch light on for Jacob, and how his disappearance was a loss of…

for myself it was partly due to endometriosis (all sex hurt to some extent) and also due to girth mainly, although I beg to differ with the idiots (non vagina havers) who claim we have no nerves in/on our cervix, cuz getting tagged there during intercourse hurts, and so does dilating/ menstruating.

I have a real life acquaintance who has basically done this to herself. Circular boobs are very unattractive (imo) as they are so OBVIOUSLY fake.

I think it’s terror of the old “there, but for the grace of god, go I.” that is “thank god I’m not sick.”

Counterpoint: a dinner party where I have an expert set of helping hands, don’t have to clean my place beforehand, and no dishes afterward? Sign me up!

A Mighty Wind and Best in Show are my personal favorites... They are two older movies of this Guest genre, if you will, but, if its a feeling down day, a cold rainy day, or I’m sick, they are guaranteed to cheer me up (along with Maid in Manhattan because Ralph Finnes in this movie reminds me so much of Bing Crosby,…

A medal rack, Katie? Bryce doesn’t even own A medal, let alone many medals that would necessitate an entire rack. What is Bryce gonna do with a medal rack?

Now, if we could only offer free birth control- along with mandatory sex education- we might begin to make a serious dent in national poverty.

I have always found issues of diet have always been an upper-middle class obsession. Everything from Atkins to this gluten-free vegan craze is usually the product of people who worry less about the money needed to purchase than the origin of their leafy green or their eggs. I grew up around mostly poor people and I…

Granted, I've only been once with some friends that are regulars and, as usual with new things, pretty awkward. I'm not sure if it is my thing or if I'll go back to one, but I think introverts could get used to it.

Some of us choose to go to sex clubs.

It's like Liz Lemon in the office supply store
