the insta did not pass my sniff test

Same. Mine referenced his time in the military as well, (because one deployment and years in the Navy Reserve definitely qualifies you to command the entire thing), which frankly was a can of worms I chose not to open at that moment.

Maybe. There are a few similarities in personality and education between him and my older sister, so I’m chalking at least part of my mom’s fascination up to ‘he’s the exact same kind of special as I believe my daughter to be’ but YMMV.

IIRC there’s currently (or was in 2016) a Tiffany & Co location at the bottom of Trump tower in NYC.

Hahaha I was on the phone with my mom during the last CNN candidate special and she hung up on me because his interview/question time was coming on next.

I’m willing to bet he still managed to forget Tiffany’s birthday when he was still living above the store he named her after. Fully believe every birthday card Tiffany’s ever gotten from that side of the family is because someone’s receptionist manages to have a calendar reminder for it.

I know a lot of people like him (my mother included), but man am I gonna feel a bone-liquifying sense of relief/joy when Mayor Pete finally leaves the race. 

I’d like her more if this were true. Can’t wait for the next album, Too Witch 4 U, where she curses all ex boyfriends in exceedingly specific ways. 

Ariel Winter, 21, broke up with the 32-year-old man who began dating her when she was a teenager.

This is the first comment I’ve read here that was equivalent to a bomb dropping in my mind. That is absolutely insane.

Oh thank god, now I only have to hang on for about two hundred more years before I can join Star Fleet. (Will be pursuing Command track, obvs.)

There’s a take amongst fairy tale scholars that tales that fall in the same category as “Beauty and the Beast” aren’t really supposed to be about women/Belle (at least in the original purposes/tellings of the tale) so much as it’s supposed to be about the Beast’s transformation and the concept of acceptable…

Good to know! Hilariously self-identifying for them then.

I get so annoyed about the fact that the white power hand sign is evidently the same fucking thing the rest of us have been using for ages to say “okay”. Like, fuck off, make your own offensive hand gestures from scratch, that way the rest of us don’t have to un-learn a fantastically common way of communication. Not…

sadly I think Sean Kingston would make a better PM than Boris. 

I literally just said that about this show last night. I immediately paused as soon as the first talking head showed up and was like ‘THE FUCK IS THIS?” and have been meaning to read about the show since to try and figure out what the hell was happening.

tbh I can’t help but see Laura-Dern-as-Renata whenever she looks remotely like she’s yelling anymore. which, frankly, is probably what Bradley deserves lmao

can believe that he has worse spelling skills than a third grader circa 2003

Is that...Al-Qaeda written phonetically there at the top?

Hope Serena wins the tournament this year even more now; she’s too good of a person to do it, but it’d be very cathartic to see her take $10k of the prize money and throw that back in the All England Club’s face.
