Ashley Tisdale voiced Candace on Phineas and Ferb! That’s huge for me, anyway! (But obviously lower-profile than being Zac Efron or his love interest.)

You are, of course, quite right.

The list of well-adjusted Disney alumni is pretty short. The Sprouse twins (“Suite Life of Zack and Cody”) seem to be OK so far, as well as Ashley Tisdale and, shockingly, the Jonas Brothers. Demi Lovato had a well-publicized breakdown but now seems not just pulled-together, but fucking awesome.

She called him the love of her life in “Truth or Dare,” which came out three years after their divorce, so this surprises me not so much. As far as I know he has never made a similar callback to their relationship. Madonna has always projected strength, except in this one area. :(

Strangely, my stomach now tolerates espresso but not coffee. I can’t explain this, but am grateful for my latte.

“Vitreous detachment” is something you get with normal aging, so...hmm.

Given that Italians elected a porn star to Parliament (Cicciolina, the former Mrs. Jeff Koons) 20 years ago without causing a domestic uproar, I’m surprised this is even an issue.

I follow him on Twitter — he doesn’t post much, but when he does, it’s always funny or uplifting and really human and damn, he seems to be enjoying life. Honest to god, he is a basketful of puppies in my feed, and I find my heart warming to him despite everything.

Some Raider fans are already calling for a boycott of Oakland because we haven’t bent over backwards to build their team a new stadium. Of course, we are still paying off the mortgage on Mount Davis, the monstrous offering to Al’s ego in what used to be the A’s center field.

How have I never considered a Ferdinand tattoo? Esthetic, nostalgic and compatible with my political leanings.

Do you really trust the legal system not to charge a woman with murder for shooting her abuser, as the system has done only approximately eleventy zillion times in the past 10 years?

There’s a whole subgenre of Civil War-era “good plantation owners and their black frien...er, slaves who have been freed but are still loyal to them” books. So, yeah. Not surprised.

Argentina: Also the Nazis’ favorite emigration destination.

My comment was about probable legal strategy, not the validity of her claim. As OP suggests, the lawyers are going to make her prove she was damaged in this precise way. Either she can’t prove it, in which case she doesn’t get damages or her claim is reduced, or she bails on the whole ugly mess, in which case the Uni…

The answer should be “dear god, why is virginity still an issue in a lawsuit over rape?” But yeah, I can see defense lawyers going after this like a dog with a chew toy.

Yeah, this case neatly illustrates why the law is an ass.

At least it’s only once a month. Unlike men.

Yeahno. Parent here, and no, little Suzy doesn't get to beg for jewelry. That kind of thing leads to becoming Ivana Trump.

“My boss is a fucking asshole who treats everyone like dirt. That’s what equality looks like!”

I am not a lawyer, but based on two years of paralegal experience, I’m going out on a limb and saying this is all kinds of unconstitutional.
