Oh, she made good turkey stock, despite having cleaned up the fat, whatever was on the neck, and probably a bit of gristle and bone marrow. My grandma was a resourceful lady.

See, as far as I know, “golddigger” used to refer to a rarefied type of young woman married to, or trying to marry, a very, very rich man old enough to be her father or grandfather so that she can inherit his money when he kicks the bucket (and live in style while she awaits his imminent demise). The Donald’s…

“there are different levels of misbehavior”

Negative public opinion =/= “vigilante and [/or] mob justice.” Christ, the fact that I even have to say this....

Edit: my comment about barfing up lunch is redundant.

I was about to cite a sexist double standard for this, and then I remembered it was ok for Bristol Palin too. IOKIYAR :|

That’s another piece of evidence for what I’ve always suspected: that when push truly comes to shove, a lot of fundies don’t care about “family values,” they don’t care about god, they don’t even really care about abortion. What they like is authoritarianism. The sound of praying is there to cover up the sound of …

Look, I’ve been seeing quite a few people say “let’s focus on his policies,” and they are not wrong...But seriously, I still wish someone would explain to me how he repeatedly gets away with shit that would send most politicians’ careers into a flaming nose dive. The man could spend his days at Mar-a-Lago having sex…

“What sort of white trash motherfucker takes Tupperware to a restaurant in the expectation of using it for leftovers?”

Lisa’s evolution has been weird.

So I think Trump’s tweet about the Humbolt team bus accident demonstrates something. While I seriously doubt President Sociopath has genuine feelings about it, still...I actually think expressing condolences is almost never wrong. It’s a case where the gesture has a bit of value as an act of civility even if the…

That’s amazing about the tea. I didn’t know that.

A local coffee shop where I used to live had “masala spice” tea. Haha. I never tried it; I’m guessing it was similar to chai.

It really reminds me of a commonly cited pattern in abusers: projecting their own behaviour onto other people. I think it’s the same mentality.

Weird! Whenever I see a comment that poses an innocent, fun question, I read stuff into it that’s not there and then write a sarcastic response that’s only vaguely related to what they actually said.

Canadian here too, and I was about to say the same thing. Shoes off is the default unless someone says “don’t bother with your shoes, I need to clean the floor anyway.”

This is a tangent, but doesn’t “chai” mean tea? I know “chai” or “cha” is tea in a lot of languages. If it does, isn’t saying “chai tea” like saying “pasta noodles? Or does “chai” in India specifically refer to the black tea/spice concoction?

Oh my god. Can you maybe not assert as if it’s objective fact that the violence in I, Tonya was intentionally played for laughs when the woman who played Harding made it very clear that as far as she was concerned it wasn’t? And can you maybe not privilege another Jezebel article as a citation over an interview with…

Don’t you get it? They’re victims of their own privilege. Check your less-privileged-than-them privilege.

I saw Fat Girl. It was brutal, but I definitely read it as a feminist film. Yes, it’s basically a catalogue of the various violences done to women. But I think it puts facets of misogyny under the microscope that aren’t usually seen on film. In particular, the relationship between the sisters is complicated. It’s…
