jessicavalenti:
In case you didn’t see this gem, media and politics blog FishbowlDC thinks that female journalists should stop being so damn sexy in their Twitter avatars. They even provide some examples of these scandalously whorish women with a couple of happy looking ladyreporters, and ask readers to send in…

It’s so depressing when women are misogynists. Especially when you used to watch them on an online video series and thought they maybe seemed kind of nice.

YES! Exactly. If we only accept gay people because they were “born this way” (i.e. “it’s not their fault” — a supposedly tolerant person actually said this to me once) then it’s not...

FOX boasts that Jeremiah Franco and Carin Shreve wrapped up 86 hours and 37 minutes of “Simpsons” watching early Sunday morning, setting a record for longest continuous television viewing, topping the previously held mark of 86 hours, 6 minutes and 41 seconds.

Bradley Whitford to Guest Star on Parks &... →
Though Schur hadn’t seen the finished episode yet, he said there were several small “West Wing” homages in it, and he told the director if there was room for a “West Wing”-style walk-and-talk with Amy Poehler and Bradley Whitford, he “wouldn’t complain.” But don’t look for a mini-“West Wing” reunion in Pawnee: Rob Lowe, who played Seaborn, did not share a scene with his “West Wing” castmate...

If I have signed my name in an e-mail and you respond with it spelled totally differently you are the worst. I mean it. I know it’s a somewhat unusual spelling. I know! But that’s only an excuse if I haven’t already signed my name in the e-mail. Seriously.

Dianne and Diana concur.
