Hahaha so would I!!! Although I do love BBC America for giving me all the Graham Norton.

I pirate UK shows that wouldn’t even be available for purchase in the States....like Downton Abbey when the episodes on PBS were delayed a year, the British Bake-Off, and Skins way back in the day.

Same. And hoping the comparison shots to the Women’s March will be epic!

Costume Assistant: “Here, Barney’s lent us these necklaces for you to wear in the scene. Dainty is the trend right now”

Dakota: “hmm the chain is thin and this amethyst is so small, indicative of the sacrifice my character makes as a working mom of two”

Privilege is in the eye of the beholder then, isn’t it? One women’s privilege, trading her looks to stay at home and simply be a wife on her husband’s dime is another woman’s shallow life of unpaid emotional labor and looming divorce.

Then at least half of white female voters don’t feel they’re disadvantaged as women. I’d bet more than a few think the benefits of their whiteness are slipping...

White women have benefitted by ticking off more boxes on the conventionally attractive list prescribed by our patriarchal society, and thus, are more likely to be hired, more likely to get married, and to someone that earns 100% of their dollar. Also, in situations where a white woman is the victim of a gendered…

May I recommend you get into a good book? Start now, so when you see them... you can take your mind into the world of your book and the challenges/frustrations of the character you’re reading. I find it helps me to be outwardly chill when I’m inwardly raging. It even works when I’m reading a book on intense themes…

Seconding Lisa Eldridge! Two life-changing techniques I picked up from her: 1) you can cover many blemishes with the tiniest amount of concealer and look like you have great skin! 2) Match the color and tone of your lipstick to your blush. I’m mildly embarrassed how long I went through life not knowing this one, ha!

We’re in the same region! Welcome!!

That was the smart move, trust

Armed to the teeth in gift cards and cold hard cash, Tiffany’s was the first stop on my post-Bat-Mitzvah shopping spree. I don’t think I have ever or will ever be able to spend like that again in my life! Thanks for the memories, Joanna! I’d memorize twenty haftorah for half that amount in savings bonds today....

I’m talking quite a ways back... two centuries ago sounds like a long time but it’s only 10 generations when thinking about gender norms in advertising

Consider also, there was a time when it wasn’t socially acceptable for women to even buy hygiene products in public, or for stores to carry them. We only had what the catalogues sold us... lies and radium skin cream!

If you begin dating “the whole age of computer” to ENIAC, it began the same year Herr Orange was born. If you date it back to WWII or Babbage, well, I’m even less sure what the hell he means.

Then I hope they get stiffed.

Actually the writing of it was pretty damn good. A little asteroid chunk lodges itself in the core of the reactor whatever of the spaceship, causing all the malfunctions that started with Jim’s pod and progressively get worse. After they think they’ve fixed the computer, they hear sounds in the distance, look out the…

In the leaked script, the ship’s computers go into meltdown mode, they find a way to “reboot” but once they do, the ship thinks it’s back in port and starts ejecting the pods full of hibernating people. So the original plot gives Jim an “out” and she realizes if he hadn’t woken her, she would’ve been ejected into…
