I’m so sad about it. Like, was it really that hard to just postpone the production until after the vaccine? It sounded like all of the actors really loved this show and would have given it priority when scheduling.

I hear the Attorneys General of New California and New Nevada are very interested in this case.
I remember hating a lot of the stuff in my American lit and British/Euro lit classes because I just couldn’t relate to any of it. Just because a teenager can comprehend a novel doesn’t mean it’s appropriate. (Looking at you, Madame Bovery, which I should probably re-read now that I’m 40.)
A significant part of the Secondary English education community has been pushing to retire the old white canon for literally decades, and it’s funny, the only pushback I got when I was a high school English teacher was from parents because I wasn’t assigning enough of the “right” books. I took a middle road of mixing…
I’m surprised he hadn’t contracted it already—I thought he had.
You know anything coming from “palace sources” is so far up the royals’ butts that it’s hard to take seriously. The hangers-on have made their whole lives conforming to and sustaining that institution they must be terrified that it could conceivably end in their lifetime because what will they do then?
The page turner is just :chef’s kiss:
I was like five or six when they got married, so of course I thought her wedding ensemble was perfect.
I hate them all, but it would be delicious if he never got to be king.
I’d ask if he rather his special needs children died rather than be special needs, but I’d be afraid of the answer. Ableism is a hell of a drug.
I agree with most of what you said, but the Gates Foundation isn’t perfect. Just because they’re big doesn’t mean they’re infallible. They’re big because they’re rich AF, not because they’re particularly effective. They’ve done a lot of good work in the health sphere, but their work in public education in this…
1. While this shouldn’t matter, she looks f’ng gorgeous in that video still from the new Disney+ movie. It’s nice to see old women being allowed to look their age and smokin’ at the same time. For such a long time, it seemed like they only let Helen Mirren do that. She’s conventionally pretty to begin with, but it’s…
On one hand, yes. Back when I was teaching full time, I dated a bartender for a bit who worked three nights a week downtown and took home more than me, most of it no tax. We both had to deal with a lot of messy humanity, and although his job didn’t require a masters degree, I didn’t have to deal with as much vomit.
Just came back from grocery shopping in my city which has been back in the red for months and there are still EMPLOYEES doing this. I feel so bad for grocery workers during this thing, but it also bothers the hell out of me so many of the employees at my supermarket don’t mask properly, ignore their own one-way…
How do you know that “spend it all on her kids” didn’t also include things like dental care and savings accounts for them? With a windfall like that, you can have a bigger Christmas splurge while also being “responsible.” A splurge for them might mean that her kids could get a game console and a couple of games which…
I thought of this, too! But I only know of it because it was a challenge one season on GBBO.
I love this and I love your appreciation for Dinty Moore Beef Stew. My mom made a meat pie using this as the filling some nights for an easy dinner, so it holds a soft spot in my heart. (Oddly, she makes the pie crust from scratch, but she grew up in the 40's and 50's in a household that always had pie for dessert,…
#BINGATE! It’s still the most scandalous thing to happen on the GBBO, in my opinion. There was one other instance, I think?, in a different series, of a similar ambiguous sabotage/mix-up, but #Bingate taught contestants to never throw your final bake away because the judges will still taste it and you might be saved.
Box wine is great for this, and if you’re a single like me, Celestial Seasonings Bengal Spice makes it very easy to do a lazy-mulled-one-for-one. Throw a slice of citrus in a mug with the wine and a tea bag, and nuke at 30 sec. intervals (or whatever makes sense for your microwave). You want to warm up the wine and…
I think the schools have names as well as numbers. At the least the high schools do. I get hanging out on the stoop (not everyone’s as anti-social as I am), but what *I* don’t get is there are places that have hyphenated addresses (like 11-42 Whatever Street, with the next building being 11-44 Whatever St, etc.)—I saw…
