I haven’t been on Jezebel much this week because I’ve been glued to the hearings, so I was so disappointed to pull up Barf Bag and realize it hasn’t updated all week :( It was one of the few articles I could still look forward to reading every day. 

The opening credits are evidence that this show got lazy in its final season. Why is Haley not given a portrait with her husband and kids?!

He just did the 80s sitcom about his dad. This episode had Aidy Bryant’s song to her dog as her boyfriend. This one was good, but I can see why they went with Aidy’s skit.

Now playing

I scrolled through the page on Wednesday to see if there was a live blog and was so disheartened to see that it was still dirt bag and other random nonsense. Then the best we get is an afternoon post about the furniture. I’m loving the Crooked Media liveblog on youtube.

I made a concerted effort to start reading again last spring, so I reactivated my Good Reads app and found that at one point in time I’d joined the Jezebel Book Club. For a brief moment in time, Jezebel assigned a book, we read it, and then gathered to discuss. It was glorious, but I’m not sure it made it past the

I grew up drinking milk. My mom rarely had juices or soda, so it was either milk or water. I always had milk in the fridge when the kids were younger, so I would crave a glass here and there. I realized when this story came out a few days ago that I can’t remember the last time I had a glass. My teenager will ask me

I tried to sub out almond milk in my skinny peppermint mocha this morning. Huge mistake! That’s $4 down the drain because it is not an acceptable substitute. Sometimes you do need the full creaminess of milk. 

Someone can correct me if I’m wrong, but if you are in the greys, and someone who is ungreyed stars your post, then it is no longer grey. If you respond to someone, then they will get a notification and may be inclined to star your post. This opens it up for everyone to see. If you post an original, the only person

Cynical me thinks she’s trying to ensure a second season of The Hills, and that she stays on it, even though she’s no longer fake married to Brody Jenner. I also think she really could think that she was in love with Miley after promising her the world and then discarding her like an old bathing suit when the summer

I married too young and held on for 18 years. I’ve been in a relationship for 4 years. I’ve never felt “single” as an adult until I went to the outpatient surgery for an ablation a couple of weeks ago, and I had to pronounce to everyone that I was UNMARRIED, and that the person I brought with me was only a BOYFRIEND.

I’m looking forward to what Elizabeth and James will do for Kohls. I’m currently wearing my favorite Simply Vera dress. Almost all of her dresses have pockets. The hem has fallen out, and I don’t even care. I have a few LC items. I only shop the few brands I like, and it’s so hit and miss. I either spend $200 to buy

This is why I like a Hampton Inn continental breakfast. There’s at least a fruit selection, even if the rest is hit and miss. Hilton Honors, FTW. My boyfriend and I brunch nearly every Sunday, so my best friend got me a gift certificate to a local “castle” that does special brunches a few times a month. The castle was

I’m on Discord. I have never felt so old. I no longer know how the internet works.

I started with Jezebel about 10 years ago as my daily procrastination. I think it started with that Faith Hill photoshop article linked from who knows where. I felt like I’d discovered a whole new world of smart women talking about smart things, but also some brain candy. I divorced 4 years ago, and it was cathartic

It is the thing that gets me to work in the morning because it is so ingrained as my morning routine.

Crooked Media (folks behind Pod Saves America) has a new daily podcast called What a Day. They did a great job summarizing what is going on with Deadspin and G/O.

You load up the jury full of parents who are upper class/ upper middle class/ want to be upper class, and they will sympathize with wanting to do anything for their kids and wish they had the money to do it. It’s the same reason poor people vote republican and against their interests.

Same! And then I was ungreyed for about a year or two before being banished by a writer who left within week. Thanks.

Dammit! I clicked on the E! article after I said I wasn’t going to because I had to get the 90 Day Fiancee reference. Waste of time. Tom and Darcy split on the damn show, and who really thought they’d be together after the reunion when the sister called them out for fighting from the moment he got to NY. Also, Jessie.

Thank you! I read DirtBag, so I don’t have to give traffic to those sites. Thanks for taking one for the team.
