Good.

Are we snarking on Jamil’s project because she made it her brand in the last year? But not snarking on Shrill? I need a list of who the acceptable and unacceptable arbiters of body-positivity are around here, because I am confused.

I’m objecting to your notion that social influencer = dumb bimbo. More than that, I’m objecting to “dumb bimbo” in general. It’s condescending, patriarchal bullshit that equates “girl stuff” with low value and it’s boring and gross. 

If you call your daughter a dumb bimbo for choosing to do something that you don’t personally find valuable then supportive doesn’t mean what you think it means. 

These Jewelry experts have such widely different values for JLo’s ring I think they might have, could have , mostly probably, maybe ….. Been fooled by the rock that she got.

Private equity debt killed Payless, not the internet. The internet didn’t help, but the company would probably be on much firmer ground if it hadn’t been weighed down by a massive amount of debt. 

Okay but he went off with this one:

At the end of the final episode of W&G, Jack and Karen sing Unforgettable altogether. It’s very sweet and very real. And they are both slightly teary eyed as they bump bellies after it’s over.. It's wonderful and a perfect example of why they were the best part of the show.

Until something popped in my mouth. I kind of froze and then took the wet thing out of my mouth. Black head, white deflated body.

there was the time I consumed my own semen.

Speaking as a pasty Irish woman, when I was around 2, I found a bottle of what I guess I thought was water in the house (in Ireland). So I drank it. As you do when you are a toddler. Then ran a ridiculous fever and ended up in hospital. What was in the bottle? The water they washed my great grandmother’s dead body in…

I went to a super restrictive religious elementary school, which I guess made us bored and weird in return. Anyway, it was probably 3rd or 4th grade, definitely old enough to know better, and I remember walking around the baseball diamond with my friends during recess chanting, “God made dirt so dirt don’t hurt.” We…

...you know this is a series about rom-coms? So she is kind of writing the same article, or it just seems that way from the surface. Just like when the other person writes every article about a superhero movie.

My balls aren’t even that big...

Do what I plan to do: write your own and prepay an outlet to publish it. Say whatever you want.

Honestly the right message here is not “It won’t be the rest of your life!” its, “it could be the rest of your life, and that’s okay! you do you girl!”
