Exactly. I’m not even a Taylor Swift fan, but the crap and criticism she receives is getting ridiculous. I’m sure, with legal fees, that $250,000 must be VERY helpful right now.

It’s a weird, weird world we live in. I’m sure it’s a well-meant gift and one much needed for legal bills. However, it is so odd to me that we are at the point where press releases about goodwill gestures and gifts have to be issued or else the public and peers will accuse you of being a false friend or bad feminist

that key change in the theme song still gives me chills

I think Britney is now a corporation/brand run by her father and a business manager. She’ll likely never get off of conservatorship and she probably gets an allowance, but can’t touch the bulk of her money.

I dunno if we’ve gone past the heyday of this type of navel gazing produced by men whose own heydays were in the 70's, or the shits just not any good.

You know the conversation Grant is having with the guy in the background is lifted right out of “Song Remains the Same”. It was an actual conversation that happened in real life! ...and it was interesting! with 300 lb, like 6'5 Grant ripping the hell out of that guy.

That drove me crazy. It’s like Scorsese has a clause in his contract where he has to shoehorn a murder into every plot whether it makes sense or not. Too bad he had to pick the most potentially interesting character to off in the pilot.

I love rock. The 60s and 70s had the best music, IMO. But I couldn’t make it through this show. The pilot was terrible. Almost every single character was completely unlikable. I didn’t give a fuck what happened to anyone. When it seemed like the main character might have died, I was like “Oh, that would be a nice

Totally. I also think there’s this idea that a sexual experience that makes a girl feel bad later on in life necessarily means she was victimized. Sometimes when we are young we make bad decisions, but they aren’t the result of any improper behavior by someone else.

When I was 17 my boyfriend was 22. I was definitely having sex with him, and I was definitely the more mature one in the relationship. This was in the mid-90s and literally no one thought it was strange. I met him because he was the friend of one of my friend’s boyfriend, who was 21. My mom thought it was better to

I get that, but I also think it’s problematic in some of the more unforgiving statutory rape laws to criminalize purely consensual sex between people who are almost the same age simply because one is “legally” an adult. The term “adult” and “teenager” isn’t really helpful in your explanation, because an 18 year old is

Very well said and a necessary reminder

This actually made me cry and I am happy you said it.

This. I also am on a high protein diet and have been for a few years. I don't like meat. My diet mainly consist of protein shakes and vegetables.

DUDE. She just told you cheap fur comes from mammals SKINNED ALIVE and your response is “*what’s the point/I drive a prius”? You can’t fix everything, but that doesn’t mean all conscientious decisions are futile. Maybe you aren’t in a position to stop buying cheap meat, I get that. But I don’t see how that would

The fact that people actually buy meat and fur when they know that the animals are tortured makes me sick. And their rationalizations are beyond inexcusable.

As a counterpoint to this experience, last summer I was filmed for the Antiques Roadshow, and my god, I’ve never had so much fun standing in line for five hours. You’re surrounded by people who’ve all got interesting items, and everyone is just swapping stories with one another and showing off their goods and it’s a

is that why kanye acts crazy? because he wants to be seen as a genius?

Kanye "asked his wife for her blessings" to... call Taylor Swift a bitch?
