Because of what everyone else said, and also because he looks kinda like Mike Fleiss, creator of the Bachelor.

I found Shia's actions to be so much more reprehensible than anything Rachel has done; even though her ethics are hazy, I can't see her swapping out bipolar meds with probiotics.

Oh shit, I just put 2 and 2 together and realized she was in Birds of Prey as the Huntress. Now I know why she looks so familiar to me.

Concurred. I started it last night and wasn't sure how long I would last, but his producer (Brandon?) was really engaging, and it was interesting to find out how long the plan had been in the works, as well as the details of how it went down. I loved Maron's cackle as the producer made fun of his conniption fit over…

My picks:
-Brandon Flowers, The Desired Effect
-Elle King, Love Stuff
-The aforementioned Pageant Material

I'm going to the doctor this afternoon…I can't even sip water without feeling like I'm going to barf.

…Yes I have, actually. And I live in New England, home of Lyme Disease. Fuck.

Big Little Lies is a ton of fun.

IT'S SO GOOD. Seriously. One of those books that will stay with you for a long time after you're done reading.

I'm a bit more than halfway through Going Clear…to say it's unsettling is putting it mildly. A very engaging and haunting read, though.

How about community journalism? We can trade…I'll go to Chicago and write about politics, and you can come out to New England and write about new businesses opening, municipal government happenings, etc.

It was 86 in my apartment yesterday. The AC got it down to 80. Woof.

I haven't had sex since December, so if I am pregnant, call the Pope!

I did just eat a bagel and egg sandwich, with no ill effects, so maybe things are looking up. If I'm still feeling shitty by tomorrow evening, then I'll give my doctor a call.

Ugh, do I empathize with that.

I've been nauseous since Friday morning - no vomiting, only minor butt problems at the beginning - and can't eat anything but bread, bananas, applesauce and oatmeal without my stomach freaking the fuck out. I'm also lightheaded and so tired it's hard to keep my eyes open/sit upright at my desk.

I've made a very conscious effort to watch what I eat and follow portion sizes; in 35 days, I've lost 11 pounds. I try to get to the gym 4 times a week for classes, but that doesn't always happen thanks to my work schedule.

Kacey Musgraves' new album "Pageant Material." I've only listened to it a couple of times, but it doesn't seem as good as her debut, but still a solid record with some great potential singles.

Crowds at country concerts are the worst. See the debacle at Kenny Chesney's recent Lambeau Field concert for proof. It's hordes of bros who have been drinking for at least 6 hours contained in a stadium to wreak havoc on everyone else.
