I posted a similar comment on the Lorne Michaels story yesterday. FOUR WOMEN OUT OF TWENTY THREE AND ZERO BLACK WOMEN. No wonder SNL isn't funny.

This. If we're going to have a conversation about a lack of deversity at SNL, the focus needs to stop being solely on casting. Right now SNL has 23 staff writers. Of those 23, four are women. Of those women, zero are black. So it's not just about the cast, and it's no wonder the writers don't know how to write for…

A sad waste of Jay Pharoah ( who is super talented) and Kerry Washington (ditto, also super beautiful). The only redeeming moment was the face made by Kate McKinnon (also love her-she's really taking over this season).

Ha ha. School really IS for everyone.

"Most importantly my son had no choice in who his mother was just like many other celebrity kids do not."

So...some kids DO chose to have celebrity mothers. How does that work then?

This makes me so angry. I had a shit time in middle and elementary school and, like a lot of kids, was bullied the entire time. I can't even imagine how it would feel to be bullied ON THE INTERNET BY SUPPOSED ADULTS WHO RUN A POPULAR WEBSITE. RAGE.

To be fair, Wilford Brimley has always been an old man. I am convinced he was born with his mustache and spectacles and wealth of diabeetus knowledge.

Do we know if this is a permanent thing or a temporary thing? Because I've really enjoyed the posts this weekend.

Burt, if you do not use your bully pulpit as a Jez writer to lobby for 50 Shades of Burt and Dolly I will never forgive you.

Ugh, Tan Mom.

Totally agree. Made a similar point somewhere else but want to say high-five for this:

I'm so glad you replaced Doug this weekend!

No, I know exactly what you mean. Not only is there a "pride" component, but it can also be totally confusing. She lives across the country from me but I've tried to send her as much info as I can about different aid programs in her state. From this thread I'm encouraged that there has to be some stuff out there…

What a lovely skirt! Good luck with the guy and let us know how it goes.

tonight was my grandmother's 85th birthday party. during dinner, my schizophrenic uncle asked me loudly in front of a room of 60 people "when did you get so fat?" and grabbed my hand. my eyes started to well up and i had to excuse myself. i used to be a ballet dancer in college and now that i'm not and not ballet…

I'm always amazed when other white people think that just because I'm white, I must be racist. Like we're in some secret club together. I do, however, enjoy the look on their face when they start to realize that I'm not in the club.

I'm an extremely high-functioning alcoholic. I guess when I say "high-functioning," I mean that I have a very successful career and I wake up and go to work on time every day, and no one would ever dream that I go home every night and drink until I pass out. I've pushed away all of my friends because when I spend time…

Oh Jezzies. What a weird day. Dropped my mister off at the airport early this am. He'll be working in Milan for the next 5 weeks. I was totally fine about it ("it'll be so good for us!" "It'll be such a. Good growing experience!" Blah blah blah) until last night. Started crying during snuggle time once it hit me that…

I was going to make a post about how my kids drove me insane today and I am counting the minutes until they go to bed (18 at the moment). That's when my almost 2 year old came up, sat by me with a blanket and said "night!" looking all angelic. It's like she knew I was going to post about her hellish behavior of…
