I’ve never been to New Orleans, but I’ve always been under the impression that it was, like, the Capital of Black American Gay Culture. I know it’s situated in the Deep South, but it’s also incredibly colorful and heavily populated by artists, no? And like you said, they’re famous for turning a Catholic tradition into…

Obligatory:

Okay, wolf boy. Good job, you made a pun. Points for enthusiasm, you gigantic dork. :P

~EXCA-UUUUSE ME,~ but I’ll have you know that the Hayley Mills (child goddess) original is the ONE and ONLY good (great) (amazing) (fabulous) (exceptional) (extraordinary) “version” of The Parent Trap, and anyone who even REMOTELY enjoys that Lindsay Lohan oreos-and-peanut-butter bullShit is a tasteless heathen, I…

Oh, well yeah, of course. I doubt she’s ever really thought about this stuff seriously except maybe as an exercise to try and figure out what the public perception is so she can play into it. I’m sure she left the White House not because she ever had some vastly-overdue epiphany about just how dangerous Trump is, but…

So... category B, then?

Yeah, I love it when people are like, “Look, I totally get that I’m the privileged one here, but like... who cares? It’s not that bad. Why do you have to make such a big fuss about it?”

I wish I could bump your response up to the top of this thread! It’s so simple and succinct.

THANK YOU

I agree about the poignancy of this piece; it clearly and truly comes from the soul, if you’ll excuse my on-the-nose word choice.

“Ivanka would not stop talking about being ribbed. Like her father, Ivanka was thin-skinned and could not seem to take a joke.”

I mean, that’s a little bit of an awkward comparison, given that old cliché about how much Hitler loved his dog...

Rich, this is a wonderful tribute; the sheer profusion of details makes it clear that you cared about doing her justice, and you probably did a better job than all the other media outlets out there.

“Glass! Under my feet!”

I suppose it’s possible that the numbers are particularly skewed by the fact that most of the relatively-reasonable men are coupled up after a certain age. Men-seeking-women in particular have a strong incentive to ~settle down~ because of cultural norms re: both household labor and emotional labor, while it’s just…

Maybe she could be termed a “post-comedian.” You know, like a post-impressionist or something, but for comedy. I think it works! It describes both where she’s at in her personal evolution as an artist and how she’s leading the stand-up comedy ~movement~ into a new era, plus it has that ring of an art-historian’s…

Ploy or not, this makes no sense to me. An actress commits tax fraud by pretending to make less money, so the government decides to put a cap on actors’ salaries? How does that prevent fraud, exactly? I’d think it would only give actors more incentive to try and hold on to whatever they’re paid. And if this particular…

Well, it’s her given name. ;)

That is very strange and I can’t even begin to imagine how it happened, especially since I’ve never had an Instagram account! Maybe try Reddit or Quora? Or just use whatever system Instagram has in place for customer support?

Yeah, whenever I hear about these ball pits, I can’t help but wonder what kind of hideous bacteria they might have crawling all over them.
