Panton told Jezebel in an emailed statement. “Ted and I had many mutual friends who would usually stop by to watch movies, play video games, or even engage in long, fun discussions about politics, philosophy, and life.”

Agreed, but Logan wasn't much better.

J-Law is (currently) the Sketchers to G-Un’s Prada backpack.

I’m trying really really hard to think of a joke involving prada backpacks and I CAN’T DO IT. brain, come on!

Isn’t it lovely that the rights of women are so inconsequential that it’s okay to threaten them as a “courtesy” to a departing colleague?

Update regarding Claire’s prospective jury dury:

Well as most cows are conservative, I don’t think it’s a major ideological blind spot at all.

As a child I grew up watching my mother work every day for women’s rights. She was there every weekend, standing in front of the only office that provided abortions in our state. During the week she worked the local abuse hotline, a program she helped start in our city. My father and her often put women up in a local…

Jesus. What a f*cking mess. I'm so sorry you are going through this, it must be horrifying for your, your family, and neighbors. What can we do to help you? Anything?

My mom started reading them to me when I was seven because my older sister loved them so much. By the time I was eight, we were halfway through the second book and I decided she wasn’t reading it to me fast enough, so she handed it over to me to read on my own. By the time the fourth book came out, we had to buy two…

Yeah, but did you ever see what happens when they let the people vote? You get the People’s Choice Awards. Have you looked at the past winners of the People’s Choice Awards? Adam Sandler has 9 all after 2000. He’s a fucking dynasty when you let the people vote.

Count me among those who will grow old filled with bitterness and anger, and a stomach full of vodka infused fruit loops. Seriously, what lies we tell ourselves, and what empty pablum we use to conceal the truth of what we all know: growing old is terrible, scary, and comes with the promise of more. Would I rather be…
