Her breakdown was due to untreated bipolar disorder. Lots of people with untreated mental illness abuse alcohol and drugs as a coping mechanism. It doesn’t mean they’re lifelong addicts who can’t learn to moderate consumption once they’re well. I mean - controversial opinion, but I don’t buy that addiction is a…

Huh. My instinct, when it comes to honoring Dr. King’s speech, is to recite the speech. I’m so un-with it.

Britney is going to look pretty damn good on the carpet:

Hope isn’t being suspended or released because of the Sweden comment. Rather, she’s being released because she’s been given slaps on the wrist over and over again because, up to this point, she was valuable to U.S. Soccer. But she is no longer the goalie she once was.

I love Leandra! “Is this a video?” made me sob laughing.

I have so many questions! Namely, why are we just hearing about this now? Didn’t Kesha’s lawyers know about this? Why wasn’t it more widely publicized? And, finally, why did E! have to “dig up” the fact that married people share an address?

Legal Jezzies should a judge immediately recuse themselves when a case involves the company their SO works for? It seems sketchy AF that this judge heard a case involving Sony...

look, they’ve got a point. following athletes requires an intimate knowledge of their athletic event. you might think he’s a complex human with a life and personality separate from football, you might even think you know the national anthem, but unless you can contextualize those things within your expert knowledge of…

I love how this thread is turning into “You don’t follow football, do you?”

Damn, Rihanna’s best friend has a great cackle

I have been getting boxes of all sizes from my office. Bankers boxes and the printer paper boxes have been a lifesaver for heavy stuff. Plus I haven’t had to buy any yet!! :)

She’s someone who doesn’t think tired “pearl necklace” jokes are so clever they need to be repeated.

I remember some commenters praising the judge and saying that all the non-lawyer proles didn’t understand the case. I wonder if they can explain away this bit of information as well.

The next time somebody whines about “political correctness” to you ask them how the hand wringing about Colin Kaepernick is any different.

Dear people on my Facebook feed: If you are boycotting Walmart because of how it treated one police officer and not how it treats millions of employees; if you are boycotting the NFL because it tacitly supports not standing for the anthem and not because it tacitly supports rape, domestic violence and traumatic brain…

It’s not fair to say you know she doesn’t feel bad. Of course she feels bad. And it’s a testament to your relationship that she just came out and told you, of her volition. Try to understand what she must be going through, how stressed she must feel to have gotten to that point. You know she never wanted to get to…

When I was in my twenties, a really good friend of mine just basically worshipped his parent’s marriage, and would always bring it up in conjunction with what he was looking for, in a partner. Finally, one night when it was just me and him at the bar, I said, “Ok. Tell me what was so great about your parent’s…

I spent most of the day packing and still feel like I got nowhere. I’m moving into my apartment in a month. Every time I fill a box, I look around and just see more stuff. I’ve already gotten rid of a ton of books and clothes, but I also had to acquire, too, since it’s my first place. STRESS.

Anyone else pregnant? How far along are you? How is your pregnancy going?

Clearly you don’t live in Houston.
