Then skip it, friend. If you’re not in a good place to waste some brain on flighty gossip that’s ok; avoid it. For some, flighty gossip roundups are an important piece of maintaining equilibrium in trying circumstances.

You’d think a businessman would know this, but then again he has gone bankrupt a few times.

Walking Dead spoiler!!

That episode is infuriating. Can you imagine if Maggie had maybe been an OB/GYN before the zombie apocalypse and helped Lori find actual abortion pills? Can you imagine if Rick had supported Lori the whole way, and held her hand and stroked her hair while she aborted the pregnancy? If Rick had told Carl, “This isn’t…

The worst thing about that Walking Dead storyline for me was the INSANE levels of guilt she gets from everyone she speaks to. Maggie throws the pills at her while yelling, Glenn is only half-heartedly supportive, and boy oh boy does Rick lay it on thick. “How could you make this decision without me?!” etc.

Lori goes…

I didn’t watch the Walking Dead so I don’t know the details, but it’s dumb that it could have been a good moment to show misconceptions about birth control. Have her take a ton of EC and still be pregnant and then have a realization, another character explain or whatever, that doesn’t work. Like I think it’s fine to…

Fuck you Nazi punk.

On the one hand, I sympathize with folks who might have been able to avoid Roseanne in the intervening time, and so would be surprised by her turn to Trumpism and various bigotries. On the other, if you’re trans or Muslim or care about things like the Sandy Hook shooting, you’ve known Roseanne was a trash monster for…

“our country needed a huge change and it wouldn’t happen if Hillary was elected or something to that effect.”

When you call the cops, they have to follow the minimum protocol. The cops did not follow this girl around or randomly pull her aside for her ID. They were CALLED to the scene.

To be fair, Yale university police did follow protocol and checked ID. Given our current environment with shootings, that is justified.

Isn’t it in the same state where another Becky McWhitetears basically tried to kill her roommate with biohazards and only got a slap on the wrist and nothing on her permanent record?

All other issues aside (and there are a LOT), why do 68% of DC schools ban hair wraps and head scarves? Of all the dumb, arbitrary dress code rules, that seems like the dumbest and most arbitrary.

I should add that any black male carrying any object in his hand appears to fall into the “extremely threatening” category, even though it’s white men who kill police at a rate grossly disproportionate to the rate with which they have police encounters.

This is yet another place where the inability to make larger purchases at once extra screws over those close (or under) the poverty line. All diapers are expensive. But the cost per diaper varies widely based on the size pack you’re able to buy.

Probably will watch. Since I love Neil Gaiman. I like to listen to the audiobook versions of his books, because he reads them, and his voice is very soothing.

There it is, just for you: “Lesbian identities have always been sidelined...we’ve always slid under the radar,” Julia Applegate says. “I don’t think people are as interested in what women do, period. I don’t think we’re as interesting to people because we’re not as valued.” 

I think the error here is in believing “critics” come to a film from an objective place. Art is subjective and this was my subjective, incredible experience watching the film and I can’t wait to do it again and bring some kids with me. Perhaps the film’s implications made other critics uncomfortable whereas those…

As someone who both bakes from scratch AND sometimes cheats and uses a box mix, it’s not a mystery to me at all how box mixes became popular. If you have a disorganized kitchen, pulling all of the necessary ingredients out of your pantry and measuring them out can be a messy ordeal. A boxed cake mix only requires me…

Is there any not giantly douchey way to address a friend's bad breath? I'm talking chronic, constant, hanging out with them is less appealing because the odor is so intense bad breath, not they ate too much garlic at lunch once bad breath.
