I think that Charles probably expected this but Diana was young and very much so infatuated with him. He never gave her a lay of the land. He was incapable of even humoring her need for romance or attention. She was also pretty well traumatized from her childhood and really, really love starved. He low-key loathed she…

Naw, Camilla really wanted Andrew Parker-Bowles. Charles initially was her bit of fun to make him jealous and then it seems like she and her husband had an open marriage but she still wanted to be with her husband. Charles developed the feels and Andrew got into hot water with his philandering by fathering a child out…

He’s also overcoming being a real looker to embody such a sniveling character. Charles is definitely nowhere near as handsome as that actor. He and Adam Driver have that gangly but secretly ripped to shreds body type that is very appealing. Like giant trees. 

I’ve read somewhere that Charles took back up with Camilla shortly after Diana gave birth to Harry. So, there’s definitely competing timelines depending on who is talking about all of this and certainly he and Camilla were in an emotional affair his entire marriage. Honestly, Charles was in his early 30’s when he took…

Maybe fill manicotti with the squash purée (I would suggest also mixing it with brown butter with some sage and nutmeg cooked in). Topping that with a little bit of Alfredo or more of the squash purée, ricotta with some sage and thyme and a yummy melting cheese like mozzarella and add some pecorino for funk too. Maybe…

According to Alton Brown, butternut squash makes better pie than pumpkin.

It was so interesting to see how little the hatred for Thatcher was highlighted and her genius (I don’t like her politics, but she was a brilliant woman) sort of not given it’s due. The reason for the troubles was also glossed over a bit. There’s no understanding for the wrongs the British committed against Ireland. I…

As a Californian who has not voted for her twice, I hoped for that too. 

She hasn’t been blonde since she was about 10. Her hair darkened at that time to a sandy brown. 

And what is deeply sad about that is Ivanka had the opportunity to build a very successful business venture much like Jessica Simpson. Her line was just fine and she could have built on that, but she wanted to follow her fuck up father. Got greedy and failed to see the writing on the wall. 

There are very few problems that pie does not solve or at least make somewhat better.

He is somehow married and I believe his wife is pregnant.

I always have some things that I like to get that are nicer that his family can get me every year

It was actually after Kerry lost. I turned to my friends who were in my college apartment and said, “Barack Obama will be the next president.” They laughed at me, but I had seen him speak in Chicago when he was just an Illinois state senator and I saw him at the DNC and just knew. I knew in my bones. It taught me I…

It doesn’t have to be that Jamie is paying off the judges, it can be very difficult to end a conservatorship or even get it changed. John Oliver did a great piece on for-profit conservatorship and how difficult it was to get scofflaws who took over old people’s lives without informing their families or the old people…

Maybe it’s just the control aspect? Some parents really enjoy being in control or being able to exert control over their children. I know best and you will obey me! It just seems like if he’s her conservator and a huge part of her life is her kiddos and he can’t be around them, he probably shouldn’t be the…

He at the very least seems like a not a total good dude because he currently has a restraining order out on him by one of his grandsons. That in and of itself should be grounds for someone else stepping in as conservator. I’ve read she suggests her sister Jamie Lynn.

Honestly, she sounds like she’s going to have serious vocal chord issues very soon. She’s done a lot of damage to her voice.

I wholly disagree that Republican lies kept this from being a blue wave. There was a blue wave, but there also was a huge turn out machine in the Republican Party that outpaced Democrats due to Covid. Trying to adjust our message thinking Republicans will be nice for once has never worked for us. 

My neighbors have bougainvillea so I’m always cleaning those leaves/blossoms. I live in the Bay Area and fall is by far the best season. It’s SF summertime!
