This new Nate Bargatze movie looks like a law enforcement honeypot for divorced dads.

I don't know how to make memes and don't care to learn but I'm picturing myself as the guy in distracted boyfriend, looking at Hollander and Rozanov while Belly and Conrad are in the background aghast

This is because the left treats feminism—and particularly feminist critiques of sexuality and sexual exploitation—with contempt, not as a serious and necessary intervention but ad a bourgeois affectation at best and as a betrayal at worst. But you’re not ready for that conversation!!!
Well, there's a photo I never expected to see in my life. Noam Chomsky palling around with Steve Bannon.

Raising the always fun question: What are your most memorable theater-going experiences?

Mine also include The Matrix, Blair Witch, and being way too stoned in Belgium when Fellowship of the Ring was sold out so we sat in the back row for Mulholland Drive instead.
It was hands-down one of the most memorable theater-going experiences I can remember, a collective 30-minute butt-clench/armrest-grab for the final climb. And we knew he lived! Wild.

Leaving the theater after The Pianist and someone was like “Oh, man, can’t believe I have to walk back to my car in the rain.”

My day job is with a large, well-known company in the coatings/building materials industry (not a flex just a setup). In the next office suite over from mine are a team of folks who answer customers' product questions via a hotline. To a man, they all look like the cast of Ask This Old House ...
