US foreign policy doesn’t give a shit about women. It’s not why we invaded 20 years ago. Women’s rights were used beatify the argument, but invasion would have happened anyway.

It’s weird how in some corners, Islam gets in the mix and some left sides tune completely changes. Because of the interaction, there is no group I probably have more problems with than Evangelicals but they have a point in that if a there is a christian group or person that even mentions the bible in something and he…

“This is a true love story. Compassion, servitude, and resignation wrapped up together beautifully.”

But that’s the problem with conservatorships: they’re self-reinforcing.

Maybe she’ll fuck up. Maybe she’ll be a mess after coming to terms with the fact that her family has abused her and used her as a piggy bank for decades. Maybe she will spend her money on Funkos and fast food.

but that’s one of the issues - people, including those with disabilities have to be allowed to live but also fail on their own terms. Its not up to you or me or anyone else to decide what “doing well” looks like especially when that’s (1) different for everyone and (2) not the legal standard for most folks including…

“Famous Women are Expected to be Conventionally Attractive and Famous Men Dont Have to Be” would be a better headline. 

A Gen-X friend of mine and I were talking about how this is almost the terrible logical endpoint of what her career has been. The musical superstars of my friend’s generation came from the grunge scene, they were sometimes messy adults who had their own desires and goals that didn’t always line up with what the music…

““What if they let her out of her conservatorship and the paparazzi starts chasing her again, only this time to say nice things about her?” I ask.”

I hope Daisy lives a good long time.

Wild comments-section speculation time. Charles gives off strong “no kids” vibes. It’s sad that his position required him to have children, because he’s clearly a very self-centered person. Observe any casual interaction/interview. He’s incredibly incurious about other people, and remarking upon the world beyond…

it's 2021, he can have inappropriate relationships with boys AND girls!

Remember the good ol’ days when Republicans just cruised men’s room? Pepperidge Farm remembers...

It’s standard most places in Asia.

As I understand it, wearing a mask when you feel under the weather but can’t avoid being out in public is the standard thing to do in Japan. The rest of the world really ought to emulate it. I know I will be from here on out.

It was probably bought with the intention of watching porn, and then they just ended up watching the Office reruns. 

Sir Patrick Stewart is the Sexiest Bald Man Emeritus. The trophy William got is a framed picture of Sir Patrick Stewart in a toga from the 70s. Not from a movie, just him hanging out in a toga on a random Thursday.

Honestly as soon as the dude was on my radar I just assumed he was some kind of sexual predator. The genuine surprise for me would be that it was a closet case; I have never seen a greater embodiment of entitled agro frat bro (not that they can’t be closet cases either). I guess if you told me he had either a dead…

I wish I had more stars to offer.

“Who cares what Prince Charles thinks right now.”
