Gah! For reasons unbeknownst to me, I was a huge history buff for major ship sinkings in elementary school (why yes, I was indeed a social pariah, why do you ask?) and the Titanic and Lusitania absolutely fascinated me (the Lusitania also kickstarted my WWI obsession, so it’s always held a deep place in my heart...to…

I brought the VHS to college with me, and went thusly: Tape 1 if I wanted historical fiction and/or costume porn, Tape 2 if I needed a good cry. Tape 1 was usually the winner, because omg Edwardian fashion and architecture!

Great job on the furrowed brows, everyone! It’s so artfully done - having a look of concern, confusion, perplexity, while still keeping your brows beautiful, is no small feat. My brow powder salutes you!

I feel like they’ll get desperate enough in the (near) future to use him as the token “bridge between the GOP and brown people” establishment pick, à la Rubio. because they can relate to him by virtue of...being brown.

Look what happened to Theon Greyjoy when he was taken as a ward by the Starks! Don’t be a Theon, George P.!

Ah, yes - the Woody Allen approach. Works every time!

I think the poster is trying to get at the fact that this is very likely a codependent relationship between two addicts, which lends itself to an abusive situation.

Ha - I do have a soft spot for Love It or List It, but each episode is so formulaic now that I can predict each episode’s trajectory from memory, despite no longer having cable:

Pardon my French, but fuck open shelving. Why do you want to see all the crap in my cabinets? That’s the whole point of the doors: hiding my poorly-organized, mismatching Tupperware so that none but I can know my shame.

“Why aren’t you taking us seeeeeeeriously???”

The Streisand Effect, but Yelp-ified...

I bought one for my Kirstin doll, because fuck historical accuracy! I was going through a Little House on the Prairie phase so Kirstin was the obvious choice, but I had to have that awesome dress - swappable “stomachers” ftw!

Maybe that’s the aforementioned charity donations?

I actively lol’d at “His bark is also quite melodious” - who actually says stuff like that?!

It’s funny you mention that, because her album/tour with Tony Bennett seemed to be the point where people started turning back onto her because her voice is just so good...and that’s probably because Tony asked her what she’d rather be known for: her voice or her shenanigans.

Username checks out.

The dream I didn’t know I had...until now.

The number of letters in each word...my ex was a huge fan of using it (who was almost 30..........................sigh)
