It’s been a while since I’ve seen a craft thread. If it wasn’t for Jezebel (and PiePie in particular) I never would have started cross stitching. Now it’s part of my routine to help me deal with stress and other issues. Anyway, I’m almost done with this. I’m just thinking if I would rather turn it into a banner or…
Today was my friend’s memorial service. I had planned to take public transportation, but when I got up this morning, I realized that construction on the tracks was going to make my trip take about 3 hours. I sat on my couch moping and had pretty much decided I wasn’t going to be able to make the trek. Then I hear my…
I am loving this fall like weather, I bought apples at the store this morning, and I’m thinking of making a salad with wild rice and apple for dinner one night this week. Your soup sounds delicious, I love cilantro, I could eat it by the fistful.
I’m so sorry about the pain and frustration. I have nothing worthwhile to say about the baby (although congratulations-to-be!) or the pain, as I have no children of my own. But I can speak to the PhD. It’s never too late and you’re never too old. I finished mine at 37; one member of my cohort was in his fifties when…
I just got back from a meeting for the Rocky Horror Shadow Cast and celebrating the fact that I, a New Person, gave input and ideas that were enthusiastically adopted. (For example: the Virgins in the audience will wear tiaras to denote their newness to the wonderful craziness. My idea! Yay!)
I’ve never seen Beaches.
Some (possibly) good news after the year from hell in which I fought to get my mother the very best cancer treatment and traveled with her for months, and then lost both my mom and my dad within six weeks of one another - I might be a grandmother soon! I say “might” because this was unexpected and my son and his…
Shelter Cat Update!
My two favorite scenes in Beaches are when Bette’s character is singing in the recording studio juxtaposed over Barbara Hershey’s character researching her illness, and of course the doggone funeral scene makes me cry EVERY TIME!
four years old. to live a lifetime and not know a moments peace. so so so sad.
And to bring up a leaning disability as if that matters at all with this scandal. She’s rich, get tutors and make your kid study, don’t buy them grades for fucks sake.
I agree. She’s going to come out of this fine. Lori Loughlin on the other hand--probably not so much.
Anyone else here want to tell William Macy to STFU and take some responsibility as well for HIS children as well?! Court documents revealed he knew what was going on. Way to through your wife under the bus.
That letter is stupid. She should have just apologized, or said nothing.
Women attack her relentlessly because she’s a bigoted, racist, anti-feminist, anti-American, anti-journalism partisan hack who shouldn’t have ever held the position of WH press secretary. As you said, she can go fuck herself.
This probably makes me sound like a horrible feminist, but I really don’t give a flying fart that you had kids and also worked, considering you have enough money to pay for good childcare and health insurance without having to worry about paying your rent. I’m sick of her throwing “being a mom” out there like it’s a…
I love The Hunt for Red October and its version of Jack Ryan. It’s a great story about one nerd being in the right place at the right time with a head full of nerd knowledge that’s perfect for solving one situation.
“he knows everything, is physically at the peak, is a rugged individual who is always against impossible odds, who can look experts in the eye and say ‘I know better than you’, and ultimately discards all negotiation in favor of brusque violence” - just like our fearless leader in the White House!

It's like knockoff Chris Pratt.
Maximum Overdrive cost its Cinematographer an eyeball, and totally because King was on so much coke he insisted on some real dumb shit. look into it, it’s both horrifying and hilarious.
