Goooorgeous. I was turned off by all the fur at the beginning but once the 40s powersuits/victoriana started, I was more into it. Then those fantastic moss and green dresses showed up at around 7-8 minutes and I was wowed. Also the burgundy dresses at 12:55 and 15:00 OMG OMG. But yeah, no fur. Especially dyed orange…

This is the exact same scam that was used by Roma women at the beginning of the century to scare mostly housewives into handing over savings. I read about this in Joseph Mitchell’s beautiful work about New York called Up In the Old Hotel. Mitchell was a journalist who wrote about the poorer neighbourhoods and its…

(your mom is really inspiring)

I beg to differ :-) My most lovely, decent and fair manager has been a man and my most hated, jerkoff, stomach-ache-inducing manager has been a woman (lawyer though- maybe that explains it?). This is by far not the worst of her offences but when it was someone’s birthday, she’d make the person read their work birthday…

I tend to think that this might be a true situation. Perhaps she was a temp for part of her 6 years there and others on the team were permanent? Also in a work environment that is very unionized, you can be the best employee all you want, if others have seniority, that counts for a lot more. A lot, lot more. I just…

I wonder what kind of deficiency you must have for your conscience to allow you to pick up a person with a disability and literally stick him in a trash can. What the fuck.
I went to grad school with a guy who had cerebral palsy. He was confined to a wheelchair and had trouble communicating. A few months after…

ARGHH!

I’ll do exactly that, you’re right. I’ll go into his office and try to be succint and chill about it. I think the hardest thing will be not to cry...

I’ve been offered and accepted a new job even though I’m scared shitless about leaving my current cocoon! I should be happy about stepping up the career ladder to a more prestigious, better-paid position but OY VEY the anxiety is poop-inducing, seriously.

Does anyone have advice about letting your employer know that you’ve accepted a new job and are giving in your notice? I’ve been working at the same place for 4.5 years and have great affection for my coworkers but I’ve outgrown my job. I’m so nervous about Monday when I’m going to have to let everyone know about my…

There is no humanity in how people are treated at the airport. How badly this young woman and her family were handled is unspeakable. Are these TSA assholes trained to demonstate no fucking common sense or shred of sympathy? Fuck! Like it’s not already hard enough to get into an aluminum tin full of fuel to be jetted…

If you look at what she actually said, it’s more along the lines of «if my husband cheated, I would take it very, very badly. I could even get to the point of doing something extreme like cutting his throat etc.» While it’s still a violent a weird statement, it makes slightly more sense in the right context (though…

It's hilarious because they're SO different and the basic real one is.. well, ya know... :-/

I’m SUCH a fan of this wonderful podcast! <3
As others have mentionned oohh the Manson murders season was creepy and also so addictive! I think Karina mentioned maybe a Misfits-themed season- that sounds really good. You Must Remember This nursed me through flying again after many years and much anxiety- Karina’s calm…

The article ends with farts. What more can I ask for? Nothing.

I’m from Québec so grew up with Céline being an omnipotent being but I didn’t listen to her as a kid or anything (which doesn’t mean I didn't repeatedly hear all her singles from a very early age). Anyway these days I often have to have Céline documentary binges. They comfort me and make me cry (so shameful). The…

Ewan MUST ALWAYS be Ewan

I hope the little guy didn’t hear or see too much of this... although I’m afraid he probably witnessed most of it. I also hope Selma is ok. Could flying anxiety plus just one chill pill and a drink have caused this reaction? I like to think that she wasn’t popping a whole bunch of pills and drinking heavily with her…

Jarvis was right!

mmm Don
