Cate Blanchett never left.

Just read this book - loved it. Was (perhaps foolishly on my part?) pleasantly surprised by its quite frank and progressive depiction of lesbian desire and romance, given the era in which it was written. In notes at the back, Patricia Highsmith said she was still getting letters from LGTB Americans decades later…

You know I love you, but I will fight you if you ever cast aspersions on ANYTHING done by HRH Gabourey Sidibe ever again.

Dick Wolf is furiously typing away on the next L&O script as we speak.

Wait... on the laundry room wall? They have to do their own laundry?? Surely not.

Yeah, I’m shocked that male teenagers who are sent to a school which costs more than the average salary in the United States think that they are entitled to sex from women. Can’t imagine where they get their sense of entitlement.

“moment of ‘divine inspiration’” caused him to stop.

This guy is amazingly scummy for 19.

they also kept a running tally on a laundry room wall to determine who had “scored” the most.
