I was in utter disbelief when I saw this come up on my twitter feed. Sophie was truly a star. Her productions and her songs are always in my rotation. No one will ever come close to what she’s put out. I will forever blast Immaterial in her honor. May she RIP.

When I was a kid, teachers would send me the dictionary for the spelling of words. But. Since I was attention deficit disorder I would end up reading the dictionary. I don’t think teachers actually understand humans. I actually needed to be taught how to spell. Dictionaries don’t actually teach you how to spell. I…

Also:

Not even my first job, but an internship at a small but respected industry magazine owned by Conde Nast (I think they owned much more in the early 2000s than they do now).

Doesn’t EP mean “Extended Play,” and refer to releases that contain more than a single, but less than a full album? Pretty sure release of 6 songs qualifies exactly as an EP. To be clear, this is still underhanded!

For me, ‘Never fuck someone who doesn’t own books’ is a shorthand, colloquial way of saying ‘Never fuck someone who lacks curiosity about the world’. But I also feel discombobulated when I’m at someone’s house and they have no books.

Really? I like Goodreads. I like keeping track of the books I’ve read and seeing what my friends are reading. And I’ve gotten turned on to a lot of new authors/book that way. That said, I rarely read the reviews.

Aside from the disgusting way this violates patient/doctor confidentiality, why do I get the feeling that some of these Sheriff’s reports are going to list the person having the procedure as the criminal and the rapist as the victim for having the pregnancy terminated without their consent!?

Oh, right! Because we live…

Well, this just screams “Aimed to be challenged in court so it can get to the Supreme Court so certain recently installed judges in concert with certain other judges who’ve been there for longer can get up to some fuckery even if it’s not this specific fuckery exactly”.

What, no “Murder, She Wrote”/“Magnum P.I.”?

Sue me, but her mother- although ready and willing to start mom drama- never came off as a weird stage mom the way the other Dance Moms and many of the Abby’s UDC parents did. Kendall, Chloe and Nia’s moms came off jealous at best and petty and hypocritical at worst. I have no clue how Maddie and her sister seem to be…

One reason I love my new obsession with Midsomer Murders is they have no problems with showing “regular” looking, middle age people enjoying sex—hell, being crazed with filthy lust, bad desire, and murderous yens. I’ve seen a couple boobs on the show but only in the context of photos, like a Page 3 girl thing. Men,…

Lindt Truffles are so much better and are also available everywhere.

He has been through hell. He was in a plane crash that killed two people; he survived with 2/3 of his body severely burned. His friend DJ AM, who was also in the crash, died not long afterwards of an overdose.

I work in government. There were these two shitheads who had been working there since 1972. They were such assholes, and no one knows what they did beyond an annual report.

My favorite argument: “These minimum wage jobs aren’t the kind of work that is supposed to be a career. It’s the kind of job for teenagers to make spending money.”

Thanks. She didn’t like Lady Gaga either (I did!).

If you had told me there would be items on Garth Brooks and Jojo Sewa and one was about a hair line, I would have guessed wrong.

I was going to go with “settle down Beavis”, but yours is better.
