You want people to talk about his personality, but when they do and they are not in love with it, it must be because they hate his skin color. Look I’m white and I voted for white dudes almost in every election-it’s not like I had much of a choice, but clearly I do not have a problem voting for white men. If anything,…

Exactly. Then you cannot fault people for talking about his personality. That is what he wants us to talk about. When he starts offering concrete positions, that’s what we’ll focus on. As long as he bases his campaign on his personality, we’ll talk about his personality (and not everyone will be fawning over him).…

Anne is a Leslie Knope. Gorgeous actresses should keep saying “I’m such a geek! I’m such a nerd” in all the interviews while acting like the coolest, most popular girl ever. Heaven forbid if they actually act like a nerd. She is the type of girl and woman that people love to hate just because she is really enthusiastic…

It’s a very different context. This is similar to having a wedding at a pretty Nazi camp.

There is a history of abuse in every old building, but they were not all built to torture or enslave people. Plantations are built by slaves to house and use slaves to build fortunes for the owners. That was their primary purpose…

When your personality is all you offer to the electorate, it will be what they adore, what they dislike and what they talk about. If he starts throwing some serious policy proposals at us, we will start talking about them.

I bled an ocean for a couple of days, but that was pretty much it. I didn’t bleed after that. I don’t know what the average is.

Exactly what I thought. If this is ever to be an issue, it should probably be around #378 on the list of priorities.

Because racism.

I agree with your sentiment, but I’ll take issue with one point. It took me decades to realize that attire and respect have nothing to do with each other. People wear really weird clothes for a number of reasons. I have the most boring clothes in the world (because I’m lazy and I’ve been wearing variations of the same…

I literally never forget that. It’s always fresh. When someone questions whether racism is still alive, I just shout, “celebrities have plantation weddings! PLANTATION! Where people were enslaved, raped, tortured and killed for centuries. And it doesn’t seem to bother anyone. It’s totally fine because plantations are…

It is completely fair to paint all McKinsey consultants with the same brush, unless they realize what a terrible thing they did by working for such a firm and seek atonement. He seems pretty proud to have worked there. Imagine having the world at your feet, being able to choose any career, any job. And you choose to…

I write about motherhood. And I have so much difficulty relating to mommy-bloggers and such things. Granted, my brand is very different. I’m not the “let’s commiserate and confess how much we need wine to get through the day” kind of writer. I tell women to force their husbands to share parenting equally so that they…

MW was the female lead in two blockbusters in 2017 and 2018.

Her hair is everything.

I a shoulder injury last year, so I had to do it the blue way for several months. It’s torture. I tell ya it’s torture! This is the most important controversy of our times. Red, red,red,red!

Yes, but take what your company is paying for your health insurance. Now imagine that the company is contributing the same amount to the government for the universal health care plan. Everybody gets good health care, but very few people actually pay more because single-payer health care is much cheaper anyway (no…

States don’t vote. People vote. There is no democratic or rational argument to give more weight to a person’s vote over another because of how much money they earn, their gender or their zip code. It is also undemocratic to exclude ex-felons from voting. It is absolutely insane to exclude a whole city from voting.…

He might be the most boring character on any show right now. I’m not a fan of the other love interest, either, but any random guy will be more fun to watch than Harvey. They really need to spice up his character pronto. I cannot decide if it’s just the way the character is written or also the way the actor portrays…

That is precisely the kind of person I would stay away from, to be honest. I mean, more power to her, I don’t know much about her and I find her gorgeous (and I looooved her in Alias), but people who can and are willing to color coordinate everything scare me at a visceral level. I was delighted when kids painted…

I went shopping for a bathing suit after giving birth. I wanted to buy a one-piece bathing suit. I normally hate them, but I could not bear the thought of revealing my postpartum belly to the world. And this young, slim sales woman asked me why I didn’t buy a bikini, if I liked bikinis more. “I just gave birth, look…
