Guess I’m weird, cause the first thing I do when I check in (folks, I’m not staying in four star view of the Eiffel Towel type joints, just your regular run of the mill Marriotts with a view of the parking lot, grassy knoll) is close the blinds.

I love this so much. I have so many girlfriends I worry about bc they are sooo into wellness that I believe it’s covering up disordered eating.

And meanwhile, Senator Mazie Hirono (D-HI) is being treated for kidney cancer and she shows up and votes with compassion and conscience. But yeah, let’s keep showering praise on an undeserving old white man.

As a veteran of the US Military, I don’t get it either.

Honestly, I don’t really understand it even as an American.

That whole “he served his country” thing is so American, it’s utterly foreign to me when you guys use it as a way to excuse someone doing shitty things. I’m not criticising, I’m just noticing that this concept of veteran worship is something that I will never truly understand as a German. Soldiers here are seen far…

McCain’s recent antics make me so happy that W won the GOP nomination in 2000 and Obama waxed him in 2008. His true disingenuousness is mind blowing.

I’d like to live as long as my body and mind are functioning. And no matter how old that is, I hope that I still wear red lipstick. She looks pretty fab if that’s a recent pic!

Geez, this thread is getting more interesting than some actual bachelorette parties I’ve attended ;)

Honey, it’s ok that you feel the need to be condescending and obnoxious on the comments page of a little blog. Some of us don’t need to apply womyn’s studies 101 to every single element of every single day. I never really understand it when people post comments getting high and mighty without irony or humor. I mean...…

Exactly! It was so strange to me how my bachelorette party (like all things wedding) was supposed to be A Statement About Something Larger Than Myself. My sister planned a chill night with live music, and it was awesome. But the strong reactions I got almost ruined the whole thing:

I don’t understand why your bridesmaids would plan something you wouldn’t enjoy. That makes no sense to me.

Every party has a pooper, so it might as well be her

yea the reason author couldn’t enjoy bachelorette party is because she’s the type of person to write an article like this.

I had to stop reading halfway through. Why do we have to fucking dissect everything? Some people want to go have a crazy weekend, others want quiet and fun, others want nothing at all. Who cares? NOT EVERYTHING IS A MAJOR FEMINIST ISSUE.

It is still pretty patronising. I’d be insulted if I was a young Harry Styles fan and got one of those dms.

Cate Blanchett looks amazing in this. I mean, she looks amazing in anything, but doubly so while chewing the scenery in the best way possible, taking full advantage of her incredible presence, and looking ridiculously sexy in her supervillain getup.

It’s like when they offered Galadriel the Ring she gave the same…

I don’t see Fassbender being in the same category as him and Cumberbatch? Fassbender can ACT.

Hey, while we are on the subject of Cate Blanchett taking over Tom Hiddleston’s spotlight in things, let’s get Cate Blanchett cast as Bond, y/y?

I cannot WAIT for someone to do her (Cate B.) eye makeup tutorial. I’m going to rock that look to work - look out engineering!
