I was the newest arrival in the Hamptons. By all appearances, I'm a friendly and sophisticated "girl next door," but with a dark family history, I'm anything but what I seem. Seventeen years ago, my father was framed for a crime by neighbors he trusted, and sentenced to life. I never saw my father again, and spent my…

She can be as evil and she's wants to be, because she is fucking fantastic. Every time I am carrying an iced coffee I try to channel a little MLP as nancy botwin and give someone a wide eyed stare down.

Since you asked so nice and all ....

I, without regret, also know what Nina Dobrev is talking about because I am a 31 year old who watches the Vampire Diaries. And, pretty much the whole CW lineup. Again, without regret.

This was fun. Please keep commenting at Jez.

She better cough it up.

TD!!! His paws were down! They were down!

Media-imposed beauty standards work both ways:

For a good history of the new "rapture" belief in American Christianity, try:

Here is an actual FB post of mine from a few months ago—

My religion is actually all about contraceptives. Instead of giving out Bibles, I hand them out. I am feeling very treaded upon.

Now the Mormon rulers have to go to SCOTUS and not only enforce the ban on gay marriage but ALSO invalidate all those marriages.

I think you need to re-evaluate some things if the first thing that comes to your mind when you find out a person is gay is anal sex. You have a weird fascination with anal sex that clearly needs to be explored. Do you meet straight couples and immediately ask if they're into anal so you can decide whether or not to…

I think the Tolkien family (who absolutely loathe the Peter Jackson adaptations) holds the rights to the Silmarillion. So the chances of that ever happening are nil.

They already know how to solve this problem. It's called gerrymandering.

"Male gaze" is a term for a theory of a structure, much like "White people" doesn't actually mean every single person who is white, but rather refers to a superstructure of white supremacy. The male gaze is "when the camera puts the audience into the perspective of a heterosexual man," so it's really a trope, rather…

You are missing the point of fat acceptance. It is not "bad health acceptance." Food choices/intake, activity level, lifestyle choices and even health need to be separated from self esteem. You can have self confidence if you want to, regardless of whether others agree. You can hate obesity (in unhealthy cases) yet…

Quite honestly, I think some people are threatened by the notion that appearance, which they work really hard to get/maintain, is not everything. I think they feel threatened if a person simply does not care about being overweight or chooses not to spend hours in the gym or eat a restricted diet in order to get a…

YUP...annnnd its a trendy shopping district, not a bastion of "notorious" liberalism.

I believe that complainer meant, "They're stealing our jobs selling antiques and crafts made by Back-to-the-Land Hippies in the 70's."
