...and I wonder how much of this non-student-athletes get to use (my guess: none). Tell me again why these sports franchises are associated with institutions of learning?

Yup. Although I’m not sure you mean Aspect Ratio. But yeah, a 12" TV screen all up in my face, that I can personally control, is going to be *way* fucking better than an apartment-sized TV playing old game clips in a place most people can’t see it. 

““It’s pretty straightforward. If you believe a crime has been committed against you, you report it,” Carlson said. “Go to the police. It’s not always easy, obviously, but it’s still your obligation as a citizen, not least to protect the rest of us from whomever you believe did it.””

YES! This really can’t be repeated enough. He’s not being put on trial for his crimes; he’s being considered for a promotion. VERY different things. 

Wouldn’t weed *help* you get through that, though?

Not gonna get TOO far into specifics, but my daughter seems to like about one song from each non-kid genre. Like, she heard a clip of “Chapel of Love” the other day and just jumped up and started dancing and will consistently do so, but no other Motown hits grab her. Same with metal, hip hop, latin, etc. Exactly one…

I have a 2.5 year old, so MOST of the time, my brain is playing “Consider the COCO-NUT! (the what?) CONSIDER THE TREE!” in the background. Still don’t hate it, so that’s a pretty good mark of approval from me.

Gotta say, it’s a LOT more fun to read these when they’re written by (a) writers who know how to make things interesting, and (b) people who aren’t just looking for PR. 

First: Fuck “Brown Bear.” I think I hate it more than the treacly “No I love YOU more!” books, because of all the repetition, when you’re already stuck reading the same book over and over. I’m pretty sure it was designed to drive adults insane. Source: I have a two-year-old. I refuse to read each thing more than once; …

Have you done the Akata series yet? 

After a brief quality issue last year, they’re back to being THE BEST, although I’m free from wipes as of last summer (potty training high-fives all ‘round!)

That show had some fucking GOLD sketches. Schumer herself seems exhausting, but at least she knows to make fun of that? Until that gets too exhausting, too...

Yup. I like Maisel fine, but The Good Place was fucking INCREDIBLE this season. They took what might have been a narrative dead-end (or at least very boring) and just went at breakneck speed without losing any of the relationships- in fact, it deepened them considerably. 

They recently re-worked their diapers, so maybe they’re softer now. My kid potty trained right before they did it, so I don’t know if they’re better. They worked really well for her tiny butt, and I liked the combo of patterns, subscription service (with THE BEST WIPES), and the fact that they didn’t fall apart, like,…

No. This was DEFINITELY a reaction to the fact that the Honest Company has made serious inroads into their customer base, largely by selling cute diaper patterns and having an easy subscription system.

In the defense of the Sesame Street people, Kermit and Miss Piggy are from a very different show, despite the fact that both shows have muppets. Grover, Elmo, Big Bird, Oscar, etc are not shown as having sexuality either.

You realize those charges are likely a lie to excuse “disappearing” her, right? There is *nothing* admirable in this, from any angle, even a little bit. 

She *very specifically* doesn’t say how the bruise happened. My bet’s on her husband being the one who caused it, but it’s Arnold’s fault for provoking him. /s

HOLY SHIT ME TOO. Even though it has a super old-school stupid origin story! I have seriously considered paying way too much money for a single-use face mask, which isn’t THAT terrible all on its own.
