As much as I do agree Britney is victim to some unfair judicial treatment in not allowing her own agency to make her own choices in life... it seems like maybe it has worked out well for her? Her residency in Vegas was a huge success, she still has a massive following, and she is still pretty relevant. Most…

Agreed. For some people conservatorship is a godsend, and at least from out here, to me, it seems to be what saved Britney. Not that you’re making this point—I don’t want to put words in your mouth...but I’ve always found he #FreeBritney movement to be absolutely silly. Does anyone remember Britney in 2007? The poor…

Look, mental health is impossible to assess from the outside, and there’s no way anyone not part of Spears’ inner circle can really know what’s going on there. That said, if I kept my 38-year-old pop star daughter locked away “for her own good,” I’d probably deny it, too!

I feel this way about Zoe Kravitz’s tattoos (even though they are mostly quite small).

In Detroit we had Hudson’s and it was glorious, they still had elevator ladies in little hats until the day they closed. (mid 80's)

My Mom saved her charge card from Bonwit Teller. I think she also still has a few pages remaining in a Bonwit notepad. Both with the violets, of course!

My mother still bemoans the end of Bonwit Teller. I remember that bag from my early childhood.

Tell me more! I remember the name, but I don’t know anything about it. Where was it?

Genuinely curious about who can travel outside the US right now. I thought there were travel restrictions??? How does one circumvent them? 

I have not seen the show but I have seen Zac Efron’s chest, arms, and abs.  Must-see TV!

But honestly? Just starting on good faith repair would do so, so much for my outlook. Just knowing competent, non sociopathic people are in charge, knowing that every last statement isn’t a lie as insulting to my intelligence as it is outrageous, just seeing our country try to regain some non-embarrassing footage on…

I KNOW! Kathy misstepped, apologized, and withdrew for a little while, but people have just refused to forgive her. Other stars have done far worse. I’ve never heard anything about her abusing anyone - sexually, emotionally, physically - she honored and supported her parents, is loyal to her friends and assistants,…

I was thinking that perhaps Jezebel could wrap all the reality ‘star’ news into one daily post -Real Wives, Kardashians etc and then I could just pass on by

Do they have any kind of access b/c of Dad?  I wasn’t clear on that.  But, yeah.  My boyfriend is European, but we got travel vouchers for our scheduled trip this July. :( Waiting it out. 

So yeah, with the exit of Oprah as the queen of daytime, she was bestowed the honor by the Big O, herself.  Ellen is a pretty fuckin’ big deal in daytime TV world.  She could most definitely end careers.

So much this. She’s fake as hell. Remember she banned Kathy Griffin who is always authentic and she proves this every day with the way she speaks out about pressing issues of the day.

I also think part of it may have simply been the fact that Ellen is a woman, and a lesbian, and her whole coming out/achievement in this field thing has been presented as a feminist triumph for so long. Nearly thirty years at this point! It was hard for people to believe that someone who was a heroine to so many could…

In my experience, everyone is still doing coke now? 

It is definitely not the last person you’d imagine; the best I can do for you is to suggest, merely suggest, that it was 35-40 years ago, and I don’t want to Google her. I was trying to think what I was doing at that time in my life, and I think that’s about right. But my husband and I always laugh about how we think…

This makes me sad, because I really would like some Non-Assholes to be in politics and other positions of power in our country.
