Such a great album. Oddly, I first heard about it in Newsweek when she was still touring small clubs. I was so into it that I bought 4 tickets for the show at the Khyber in Philly thinking they would sell out really quickly. I couldn’t convince any of my friends to go so I ended up selling two tickets at the door.…

I loved how she sang about things like ghosting (“Fuck & Run”) back when there wasn’t even a term for it, it wasn’t really represented in art, yet was part of so many women’s experiences.

Being a black girl in the school system (anywhere really) is a double whammy- black and female. But these dress codes are also classsist as hell- if you add low income on top of all that? Forced to wear your sisters old clothes who is shorter than you so maybe the clothes aren’t such a great fit but it’s all you have?…

Ideally, if she can prove that she is more than just a flash in the pan it could be a good investment. But this is pretty much how a lot of musicians go bankrupt really fast. I do hope she is the one signing the checks and not a money manager.

There’s still some serious mojo to holding something that predates most of the civilizations on earth.

I didn’t say that duration alone and above all else is the sole indicator of relationship success, however, the type of successful relationship that I strive for takes longer than nine years to build.

The Nancy Reagan book looks like another stop on the scrubbing of national memory about how awful the Reagans were for so many people in the country and around the world. So Nancy danced with a lesbian writer at a large public event? I don’t give a shit. She facilitated and enabled one of the worst US presidents…

Teigen’s like that about everything though. Not just her marriage.

This is all quite personal, isn’t it? It’s true that I’m using my own definition. I want to know someone completely and be known completely. I want to speak without speaking and know without being told. I want the comfort of a well worn leather glove. I’m lucky that I found someone who I fit together with like jigsaw…

I see why you would name Bell and Shepherd, but I also agree with Wonder Woman. They talk about going to counselling together. They don’t make it seem like roses all the time. Though sometimes they will be extra lovey dovey and share crazy romantic moments.

KBell and her man at least talk about how shitty things are sometimes - I like hearing about them fighting the entire way on a motorcycle ride across country when they were first dating. I can do without declarations of love. Bring on the stories about fighting from LA to Detroit on a motorcycle.

Speaking of Corey Feldman, here’s something awesome he’s been up to:

I mean - he did just get stabbed.

Animals always outrank people in my book. Always.

My only trip-up was Pro Hairstylists vs 70 Degree Days. I got some difficult hair.

Or read the Quincy Jones interview.

I’m guessing the Pence’s have never seen Last Tango in Paris.

Or, ya know, get ya a Bundo bunny boy who likes other bunny boys:

The more that we learn about them, the more it seems that these are just more human beings that we like to nominate as being “other.”

Have you met the Duggars yet?
