False.

Now playing

I’ve done sales and marketing for almost 2 decades and her ask is not crazy. People need to get out of their, “I hate youtubers, influencers, millennials, or whatever” bubbles and realize that this is a young woman who was just trying to run her business like she’s been told it should be run probably by people above

One of the weirdest things that doctor said was something like, “I told the president that with a few changes in diet and exercise he could live to 200.” What doctor says that? Now, maybe he joked to trump about it while he was in his little paper gown, but to then say it at the press conference? I felt like it just

Of his three previous successors’ failures with North Korea, Trump said: “I guess they all realized they were going to have to leave it to a president that scored the highest on tests.”

That’s illegal if you’re in the US. Look up the National Labor Relations Act of 1935 (NLRA). There are some even stronger statutes at the state level, so check your state as well.

The silliness and wrongheadedness of going after Streep allows the Clooneys, Pitts, Tarantinos, etc. off scot-free. Streep was not on the production-side as those men and Weinstein were - so anything she “knew” was derived from rumors unless she heard it from victims themselves directly. Which no victim has stated

 II mentioned this in the AV Club post, but it bears repeating: It means the world to me that Sasha chooses a full on intellectual woman as her persona. Granted, it’s one not far from who she is IRL, but Ru rarely rewards the type of drag Sasha does. The brainy artsy NYC types tend to do well enough, but rarely make

I think she has so much anger about the situation that she’s misplacing it. It’s got to be hard, honestly. She had remained silent for so long (not of her doing) and now, to see so many coming out, getting support, being believed....it’s got to mess with her, it’s got to make her angry.

Perfectly said. I may not agree with Rose’s saying this or that, but a) who cares what I think? and b) she’s been through a trauma and is now re-living it, in public, every day. She gets all the rope she needs with that, I think. AND, when people came for Corey Feldman’s weirdness in describing his experiences,

I think it might be PTSD. I would never diagnose anyone but I’m close enough to know that it can really fuck you up

AND TMZ.

And his site is an unusable relic from the early aughts

Please for the love of god stop posting links to Perez Hilton. He is vile.

You left out the most heartrending part of the memorial to Carrie: the music changed to Leia’s Theme when the words appeared on screen.

Relationships do take work, doubts are normal, and bad stuff often does make you stronger AND.YOU.SHOULD.STILL.TRUST.YOUR.GUT.

When I was having doubts about my ex’s feelings for me, you’d be surprised how many friends, feminists, and family members tried to talk me out of my doubts. My parents were the worst of all. My ex didn’t help because when I brought up the notion that maybe he didn’t like me all that much and we should break up, he

We (as women) are so socialized to disbelieve or dismiss our guts. Even now, as a grown-assed woman, if I state a ‘nope’ position based on what my gut tells me, I get pushback from women as often as men. “I’m sure it’s not so bad!” “Give him a chance!” “But he’s Faaaaaamily.” You don’t even need to ask how often my

Men don’t appear to think it’s that hard to be a woman.

Something I think about a lot is how my mom’s vision/plan (at age 20-something) of what her life would be was nothing at all like how it has turned out. 90% of the reason for that is because she got married and had kids. I don’t know if my dad had his own plans or what they were... anyway it’s something I have been
