Yeah, I’m getting my first tattoo in two weeks and I’m kind of dreading everyone secretly linemouthing at it. But... it’ll be small, it’ll be easily covered, and I spent about 2 months stalking the artist and obsessing with her work. So I don’t feel like I’m walking off the street and asking for a flaming skull…

I’ve been researching tattoos like crazy recently, and I think part of the problem is that it’s a style that’s out of date by at least 10 years. Right now it’s all about minimalist blackwork, stick-and-poke, geometric, and watercolor splash. All of these will probably look dated in another 10 years or so, but the fact…

TIL that Jennifer Lopez and I agree that blackwork is best.

Maybe they’re all the Judases.

I kind of hope they have a few more Frank flash-forwards this season. Partly because I really like Tobias Menzies and prefer him when he’s not a horrific rapist with bad hair.

I get that. It’s a fairly stupid/fun show, but you aren’t really missing that much.

Isn’t Starz American?

Maybe the books are, but the show plays fast and loose with history, and the pacing is all over the place.

Yeah, DaVinci would like a word.

Who watches this show/reads this series and is bothered by describing it as smutty? What else could you possibly be watching/reading it for?

I mean, they’re all basically just re-dos of The Last Supper.

I dare you to get through more than 30 seconds of one of her YouTube videos. They are deliciously smug:

He looks like a cheesier Tyler Hoechlin. Which is to say — not my type, but I get it.

For sure. But I think a lot of the time people seem to put too much weight on the person their partner cheated with. And when there’s a major power dynamic at play between an older, richer man employing a younger woman, I’m always skeptical when the woman is painted as some kind of temptress — especially by the wife.

Man, this comment really came back to haunt me. I can’t believe he turned out to be such a douche.

The blog becomes the entryway into the “brand,” which essentially means selling cashmere blanket scarves and essential oils for ridiculous amounts of money.

Ask Tom Hanks.

When she was a teenager, Brooklyn definitely wasn’t the hipster borough it is now. But that doesn’t mean that she actually experienced the grittiness of Brooklyn from her parents’ million-dollar home and her expensive education.
