You tease, you! I haven't watched this season of Downton Abbey because, well, last season sucked donkey balls, and for a second I thought you were serious about Edith moving to Berlin and I suddenly thought maybe I was missing something. But she's not, huh? Still just everybody moping around the house being…
Someone gave me the first three books as a gift, and I read the first one and was like, Okay, that was kind of fun. Kind of goofy, but I guess I see why people like it. Not in any hurry to read read the second one. A couple of years later I was bored and had nothing to read, so I started the second one and I am…
That day is coming, and fast. Falconboy and I are pretty solidly middle class—we make very close to national median income. He works a blue collar job and I'm (mostly) a stay at home mom. Despite the fact that he doesn't need to, Falconboy relishes spending time with our daughter. She's almost 2 and they have a…
If I remember correctly (and, yes, I'm embarrassed that this is taking up space in my brain), they had an altercation in a hotel room and someone in a nearby room called the police. The police arrived and observed his injuries and made the arrest based on that. So, I don't think that filing a false report would…
You underestimate how profoundly selfish some parents can be. A friend's husband refused to wait until their toddler went to bed on the day the new Grand Theft Auto came out before popping it in to the Playstation on the only TV in the house. Because waiting three hours would have sucked. I'd bet money this guy…
I... cannot un-see that.
I went to college with the CEO's daughter and know the family a little. Not that they're not nice enough people in person, but I wouldn't hold out much hope for any kind of sea change regardless of which family member is running the place.
I feel like that cat probably always pretty much has that expression, but the sweater is awesome nonetheless.
That gif is hypnotic.
I just heard that song for the first time today and saw R. Kelly's name on the display and though, What the actual fuck?? For a second, I thought I might be having a fever dream or something.
Now this Sesame Street sketch is just going to bum me out.
Stupid concept, but I would wear most of those shoes. Or, a cooler version of me would wear most of those shoes.
Even that's not quite enough. When something like this happens, the safest course of action is to terminate the pregnancy, even if there is still a heartbeat. After all, Savita Halapanavar was in the hospital being monitored by doctors, but she still became septic and died, all because the doctors were waiting for…
I kind of want one of those med alert bracelets that list allergies or medical conditions should a person have to be attended by EMTs or other medical professionals while incapacitated and unable to give the information. I want it to say Do not bring this patient to any medical facility run by the Catholic church or…
Babies also get photoshopped for birth announcements.
^^^^^^THIS. The idea of him doing that movie was such a bummer. The Business podcast from KCRW a couple weeks ago discussed him leaving and pretty much said he left because EL James was demanding (and getting) absurd things changed in the script to keep it close to the book. As much as I like Jamie Dornan (is that…
I love it. This whole thing is such a train wreck so far. Is it wrong that I hope it continues and we wind up with a truly epic episode of the How Did This Get Made podcast?
I love everything about that Entertainment Weekly, starting with the fact that the title of the article is Dakota Johnson on "Fifty Shades": "I really understand it". How passive aggressive was the editor who pulled that quote out and smacked it on the top of the page. Then, there's the rest of the quote mentioned…
I love this show so much. I just discovered it a couple weeks ago and I was so bummed to finish the entire first season. Seriously, the clothes are amazing! If nothing else, watch it because the clothes are amazing.
