I could eat the Thai Lettuce Wraps every day.  So freaking delicious, and healthy-ish.

Right?! I scrolled past Missy’s, and was like, “WHAT?!?!?” Nomani’s was good, but Lizzo’s was life-giving.

I’ll agree and add that this 3-pack of “flavored” Nylabones has been a particular standout with my year-old Frenchie. We keep one in several key locations to keep her happy. She chews down one end until they look extremely phallic.

Catchy, fun song and great video! I’ve also been digging Tayla Parx (she’s young, has co-writing credits for Ariana and others).

Yeah, I also cringed at the Shrek reference. At that point, they cashed in (not that I can blame them), and lost their sound/got overly pop-y. Mr. Jones, Round Here, A Long December... I’m no music critic, but they had some solid music and a distinctive sound in the pre-Disney era. But I’ve always kind of known he was…

He looks like The Hound crossed with a Property Brother.

Unless you have a serious medical condition that prevents you from doing so, you are morally obligated to (at least try to) hold your fart when in a confined/enclosed space and escape is imminent (i.e. waiting in a modest line, in an elevator, etc.). 

Agreed. I know there are groups of friends for whom this might just be “fun and games” when done amongst each other, in a closed setting. (Personally, I am not a fan of pranks or other actions that are designed to expose (literally or figuratively) or embarrass someone.) But this definitely crosses the line for the…

I remembered it from that episode, and came here specifically to see how it ranked.  Well, and for all the other jacket glory.

Right, I agree with you-we are on the same page! Conservatives are acting as though parents are ready to throw in 100% with preschoolers who are experimenting with different identities. In reality, open-minded parents are just advocating for letting kids be kids without so much stigma or judgment. Like so many…

Well said. I think I’m a pretty good parent, but I’m so glad I’m not a full-time caregiver. It doesn’t match well to my skill set, which is better put to use providing for my family financially. (And fortunately, allows me to afford childcare, with little thanks to Uncle Sam.)

Yes, exactly. The implication of Ladyduh was that people are jumping into action to put preschoolers on blockers for hormones that are not yet present (at significant levels) in their systems. That would come ~6-7 years later, at which point the kid would be far more developed and have a much stronger sense of self…

Exactly this. I hate Trump with a burning fury, but (legality aside), I think she crossed a line,while feeding ALL the trolls.

The part about coparenting with her daughter’s stepmom really resonated with me. I’m stepmother to a 13-year-old boy. The relationship between his mom and my husband ended LONG before I came into the picture, but she still managed to harbor resentment toward me for a long time. I think we’ve been moving in a better…

Pretty much my exact thoughts when the news broke of his (probable) attempted suicide.  According to the Times, he didn’t do himself any lasting damage, so he needs to be monitored 24/7 ‘till this thing is seen through to the end.  I know better than to hope at this point, but I wouldn’t ask for anything for Christmas…

SUCH A CHAD.

I can’t get over that her life allows her to allocate up to ~8 hours per day to that nonsense.

She was also married to my high school crush, Ben Harper, so she’ll forever have a degree of my respect/envy.

She is also clearly really bad at rolling with it when someone seems familiar or like you should possibly know who they are. The “Hi—nice to see you.” And then pivot to complimenting their [shoes] or making a generic observation about the [traffic coming in to the premier].

Totally valid!  I wouldn’t want to share a therapist with a close friend.  But I’ve seen recommendations requested/shared in a very similar manner among people I know.  And in wealthy communities, there’s often a stamp of approval that comes in knowing that someone else from the same circle endorses someone.
