When some Catholics complain that the HHS Mandate and discussion of the word “God” in the allegiance and the phrase “In God we trust” is putting them one step closer on the path to being martyred.

Oh man, there’s someone on the westeros forums claiming that Jaime doesn’t love Brienne because ‘he sees her as a sister’.

I want a movie about a little girl, aged like 11-12, going through the stuggles of prepubescent girl life, with her entire inner monologue is narrated by Samuel L. Jackson.

Shot of disgruntled adorable little girl.

Gollum from Lord Of The Rings covers Taylor Swift’s “I Knew You Were Trouble.”

It’s also kind of tough to ignore the shitty parts - the racism, slavery and mysoginy. Jefferson’s mammoth cheese block party sounds like it kicked ass, though!

I was pretty solidly taught throughout school that all those shitty parts were ‘an unfortunate circumstance’ of the era they lived in, so it took a long time—for me, at least—to separate and realise that and be able to have a disucssion that didn’t put the founding fathers on a predestal.

Nonetheless, cheese parties must be a blast.

They really do. It’s nice to hear small bits of trivia that humanise them when there’s this sort of infallibility that’s been put upon them.
