I completely agree with you, it sucks. One thing I read last night that is giving me the courage to tell my mom the holidays are cancelled is nurses sharing stories about the abject regret people who didn’t believe it was real are feeling on their deathbeds. A few months of freedom and partying only to die is just not…

1) when does a vaccine count as being early? Fauci and others have consistently said they were hopeful for a Q4/Q1 vaccine that would take time to distribute starting with frontline workers and the most vulnerable. Trump said it would happen by election day “or even earlier” in the debates. Election day is past! You…

I’d like to think of this as an additional entry in the JLo-Mariah Carey wars. Mariah says wait til after thanksgiving, Lopez coming from out of nowhere saying do it now, just like when she stole that song from Glitter. So petty, so great.

Gnomeo and Juliet soundtrack actually has several good, danceable tunes!

The fact that a lot of post-mortem chatter is AGAIN about winning white conservatives and not being too progressive is nauseating. Please can we for once look at the data and follow local organizers leads? Nevada is probably going to be called for Biden, but it’s really close and they enshrined same-sex marriage in…

I’ve had trouble locating my exact discomfort about the suburban mom trope, and this article does a really good job articulating it. Mostly I feel like white suburban women are not a voting bloc with homogenous desires and needs, but also we don’t deserve the attention? As you said “Unlike the majority of women, who…

I was six weeks out from delivering baby #2, with a 3-year-old as well. We were really trying to work on the 3-yo staying in her own bed, and I remember waddling over to my husband in the middle of the night from the toddler’s room and saying “who cares about sleep, the world is burning” and then crying a lot. Now I…

I think the defense is they only act this way to a certain kind of woman. Clearly they can’t hate women - they have wives and daughters they love! They go to church probably! It must be something this particular woman did or a way she behaved that caused that action/reaction in them! Everyone knows if we women just…

This was so good, flawless execution. My only disappointment is that the still of the video makes it look to my brain like she’s playing the flute so before I watched the video I was thinking there would be insults AND fluting. Alas.

Guys I have an idea - a channel that lets artists do short form content to stream on mobile devices. Could be huge for things like this that don’t make a natural leap to longform entertainment. Call it Quippy.

I, admittedly, love My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. But even at the time it felt unfair that he could tell his story on this massive album and Amber Rose was marginalized without nearly the same platform. It’s even grosser that it hasn’t stopped. Learning more and more about Kanye over the past ten years has been a…

ahhh, this is my problem. Anxiety makes me not respond, which gives me more anxiety. A vicious, shitty cycle.

I have a very early memory of my mom drinking Tab all the time. She later switched to Diet Coke, which I helplessly mainline every day. Just think, in an alternate universe she sticks with Tab, I become addicted to Tab instead, and this news hits a lot harder.

“People hear terms like Handmaid or head of the household or the language of religion, and in many ways it’s a reminder if we’re outsiders observing a world that we don’t understand the language can be offputting or scary,” Dr. Bruce says.

I think you mean October 13 and not November 13? Sure wish tomorrow was already November 13 though!

I know this parental dynamic deep in my bones. Everything Fuck-Up says is true but wow is it hard to take that deep breath and say it out loud, even if you have a good relationship with them, even if it’s a better and healthier relationship than you may have had in the past with them, and you know they love you.... it…

The faces she made were giving me life, I literally fist pumped a few times, but the anxiety of how other people would surely hold it against her was killing me at the same time. Overall, I thought she performed almost as well as she possibly could have. She’s definitely ready to meet this moment.

Another Dirty Sexy Money fan! Bless

I thought her post was touching and brave and helpful to normalize terrible events like this happening. I can also see how it might shock some people, but no one is asking you to make the same choice. Pregnancy and delivery complications are so so common but so isolating. Especially if you aren’t particularly…

The part where Allison Mack meets him during a volleyball game and you can see within moments she’s completely taken by him and in tears was WILD. Cannot imagine seeing this doof Keith play volleyball and simultaneously seeing my future unfold before me (a future of more Keith and volleyball plus starvation and weird…
