I'm not saying Beyonce is not important. But, you know, Oprah IS still alive.

I have a theory of Jay and Bey's relationship (even though I have never met them and have no actual knowledge of their relationship. Frankly, though, I would love to be in Bey's circle of girlfriends. That being said

This whale is totally comfortable not going to Hakkasan for her bachelorette party.

I have never understood the appeal of Vegas. From where I'm sitting, you saved a bunch of money and protected your liver.

Someone in Las Vegas was acting in this manner...?

In the US, paternity leave is not required by any measure at all - it's just company policy-based (although I don't know if you are in the US). I know someone who went to work two hours after his kid was born. It's so... SO terrible for the whole family not to give both parents leave.

How long do employees stay with your company? If you are hiring an employee to be with you for five years, 12 weeks of extra cost doesn't seem an outrageous expense to get a better employee (and comply with the law). If you expect your employees to move on after 6 months or a year, fit and competency are less…

Honestly as a parent of a teen girl, who's been the victim of mild teasing and bullying for the past 2 years, I have come to the conclusion that there's no amount of "education" or "awareness" that's going to stop bullying. It's not that these little shits don't KNOW any better - they know, believe me. It's that…

I think you've stated something here that is sadly true. But the unfortunate fact is that the internet and bullying are a toxic combo that produce a super-strength, mutant version of old school, pre-internet bullying. And I think that parenting hasn't caught up with technology.

I can easily see both sides of that coin.

I am so thankful to have gotten the fuck out of high school before phones/cameras/social media became ubiquitous.

This is so damn heartbreaking it's killing me. My boy is not yet 3 and I am weeping for these parents and my future self and my kid's future and the pain this boy was in. Just... Aaaaahhhh.

I think the idea that this is either-or is so misleading. It's fine to give a kid some choices. Giving them some choices that are age-appropriate and no big deal is not going to create a monster.

She's never said a damn thing about anything other than her tits, ass and pot. What's your point? She can't start anywhere unless she starts where you think she should?

When you say "kids today," may I ask what you're basing that on? I'm not arguing that kids can be little shits, but honestly, in my experience most kids have their shitty moments because toddlers are tiny sociopaths. I'm kind of wondering if we aren't collectively forgetting that small children have always been kind…

Maybe they're trying to position her as the next spokesperson for SodaStream? (DON'T DO IT, RIRI.)

Yeah. I'm sure they're behind it. Odd that a pop star can literally can be naked and smoking drugs but not have an opinion on the oppression of a group of people.

That's unfortunate. Support for Palestine is the first smart thing I've heard from Rihanna but, apparently, that's the line she's unwilling to cross.

Honestly, it's just more nuanced than a good headline makes. Kids should be given leave within reason to make choices and express themselves. My daughter has been picking her own clothes out since she was a year old (my sons, who are 2 and 4 years older, incidentally, still don't really care what they wear) - this…

In the 60's, we also had Sophia Loren, Jane Fonda (who's thighs definitely touched as seen in Barbarella), Claudia Cardinale, and Barbra Streisand - all played desirable women in films and none were Twiggy types. I think each decade has a pretty good mix of body types representing "beauty" because in film, looks can't…
