I often feel alone in my intense dislike of Jess. It's nice to know that I'm not alone. :)

Logan wasn't wrong. It was the wrong time. I know the popular opinion is that Rory should up with Jess, but as far as I'm concerned, IF Rory ended up with anyone from her past it would be Logan. I also entertain the idea that she met someone new and left her high school and college boyfriends in the past.

Thanks! And I'm sending no baby vibes your way, as well as warm thoughts and wishes as you go through this time with your father.

You are not horrible; those women in your mom group are the horrible ones for making you feel that way. You need to do what works for you. You know what's best for your son? A rested and happy mom. If that means putting him to sleep in his own room than that's what you need to do. He will be fine.

It's not likely that you're pregnant. The pregnancy hormone should be showing up by now. The same thing happened to me in June. I ended up being 5 days late but took about 4 pregnancy tests in those 5 days. You can always call your doctor for a blood test if you're concerned. Are you trying to get pregnant? Because…

When I was a tween (despite the fact that that word didn't even exist then), I hated Bop because they never had pictures of my One True Love, Fred Savage. Teen Beat was my source for all things Fred.

Hoda's expression is the best. She's delightful.

Permission granted. I think the difference is that with fomo, you feel like you have to go or you'll miss out, but momo you think everyone is having so much fun without you.

I had to look it up. It means "fear of missing out". I'll meet you at the bingo parlor. Us biddies have to stick together.

I can see the point he's trying to make, but do these men not have personal responsibility for their behavior? If women are marginalized too, do we get a pass for disrespecting other marginalized groups? Does a white women calling a minority male out on his catcalling marginalize him more, or do women end up more…

So his point was that women should just allow themselves to be marginalized even more because (some of) these guys are also marginalized?

I've always said that the decision to keep my name was 50% feminist principles and 50% laziness.

Wow. That guy loves Weird Al. Can't blame him, but I didn't expect him to fawn over Weird Al like that.

And then she'd jump to the next obstacle and was all "Oh, these rings? Poles? Giant wall I have to hop up? NBD."

I love American Ninja Warrior. It's such a perfect summer show. Watching Kacy both on the course and her sheer elation after completing the course was a joy to watch. I know the next stage of the course has yet to be completed by an American, but it will be great to watch Kacy compete.

Of course! We can combine holes to make for a faster escape.

I'm such a wimp. If I saw a snake on my patio I'd stay away from it for a week. Or just let the snake have the patio. Who needs to sit outside anyway?

How often does the average New Zealander run into those things? I know you mentioned they weren't poisonous, but I'm pretty sure I'd lose my shit if I saw that without warning.

Sold. Although I'd probably get kicked out due to too many Anne of Green Gables references.

I think it can work as two movies, too. There's a natural breaking point in the book that I hope they use as the end of the first movie and two movies will allow characters to be more fully developed. I just wish they wouldn't make it a year between the two. 6 months at the most would be better.
