I was just thinking earlier today, this is the part in the movie where the hero, with another load of odds added to those already against her, actually plays her antagonists’ game and in doing so one-ups them.

...Right? Please?

I’e long wanted to see a coach fired at halftime, but I suppose this is the next best thing.

Now I’m also wondering if any of these new ships will be incorporated into the X-Wing tabletop game....

If this show does indeed echo the old school X-Wing series (as well as Wing Commander, for that matter), then I’ll be stupidly giddy and will probably irrationally defend whatever shortcomings it may have.

Uh... welcome to Chicago, Khalil Mack?

Not American, but maybe Colm Toibin?

Serena is the best goddamn athlete in the world, straight up.

Mattis: “Come on now, you aren’t a whore. An idiot, maybe. A whorediot.”

And they promote such horrendous habits like Italian immigrants tearing down flags. Horrible....

As a heterosexual male, I feel no qualms whatsoever about calling Oscar Isaac one fine specimen of man. If he ever wanted to have his way with me, I’d probably just say, “Thank you.”

Stevie Nicks is a true witch. (I mean this as a compliment, as calling her a goddess in this context just didn’t seem appropriate....)

Rwanda seems like a source of universal regret among the world leaders during that time. Fast forward nearly a quarter of a century, and... world leaders are still making the same mistakes, only it’s doubtful they’ll ever express regret later on.

Not only is Superman an immigrant, he’s also a refugee. I’ve always loved this fan rendition:

One one hand, it’s certainly a step up from sacrificing yourself on the horse races track to draw attention to your cause before the King of England. On the other, I suppose it is a bit depressing that this is one of the primary mediums in which this battle has to be fought now.

“Murphy Brown” was one of the few adult TV shows my mom would let me watch when I was around 7 years old, and as I’ve rewatched a few episodes in adulthood I completely understand why. Even though I couldn’t understand everything (okay, most of the things) that were happening, the messages sunk in on my budding brain. …

As a youth care worker myself (for abused kids in the foster system, not immigrant hostages), I can’t even describe how much this enrages me. When you take this job, you make it your mission to protect those who haven’t been protected and show them that, no matter what they do, they’ll never be abused in return. It’s…

SOLIDARITY, my brothers and sisters!

Massachusetts passed the Negating Archaic Statutes Targeting Young Women Act, aka the NASTY Women Act, a bill that will repeal a super old state law banning abortion. Gov. Charlie Baker is expected to sign the bill.

To Iranian President Rouhani: DO YOU KNOW HOW TO FIX MY BROKEN CAPS LOCK? SERIOUSLY, I CAN’T FIGURE THIS OUT AND IT’S BOTHERING ME. YOU SEEM LIKE A SMART GUY; PLEASE HELP.
