I would assume it’s a Norwegian spelling. 

It also looks like Max Rose is going to flip New York’s 11th Congressional District, which includes all of Staten Island. Staten Island went so hard for Trump, and this is a HUGE win. 

And nothing is made in Mrs. Winterbourne is made about Ricki Lake’s appearance (weight-wise), either. (Also I have such a soft spot in my heart for that movie.)

I actually got the history for our apartment, more for curiosity’s sake, and it was almost hilarious to see how low the rent was for the tenant who lived there from like 1980 to 2000 or whatever. (The rent is still incredibly affordable: $2,175 a month for a 3-bedroom on the 6th floor in a Bay Ridge apartment with an…

This is a spectacularly deep cut.

That’s fair then! But thank you for being so forthcoming about it. 

That’s a real uptick from 2014, where less than 20 percent of adults under 30 bothered to vote—come to think of it, I’m not sure I did then, either—and competitive with the 2016 presidential election, where 46.1 percent of adults under 30 voted.

Cher is also SUCH a wonderful teen heroine. She’s smart and kind and genuinely wants other people to do well.

I assume it’s because his parents were second cousins.

From the header image alone I assume that she’s like Parker Posey’s character in Josie and the Pussycats. Is this the case?

I’ve been doing some family genealogy for the past few years. Two of my great-great grandparents were deaf (married to each other), and while my great-great grandfather was born deaf, my great-great grandmother lost her hearing when she was two. From measles. Given the climate right now, it infuriated me to see that…

Yeah, I would actually think that as a general rule NYC is more tenant/renter friendly than most other places. 

And think of how happy you’ll make the trick-or-treaters!

Plus she’s from Oklahoma! I assume everyone there believes they have some Native American ancestor. 

I took one (Family Tree DNA) totally expecting to be 100% European (Irish and Italian) and hoping to find some other relatives who could help me piece together my genealogy since I don’t want to pay for Ancestry. It turns out I’m still mostly white, but I somehow inherited no southern European DNA, but do have 3%…

His best movie is Bullets Over Broadway and that’s because 1) he’s not in it, 2) Jennifer Tilly’s delivery of “The monkey glands are working,” and 3) everything Dianne Wiest does.

I feel like Trini Alvarado’s performance as Meg in that definitive 1994 version is so underrated.

She can go to hell along with the rest of the lowlifes in that family and administration.

It’s not quite the same thing, but I do see shades of this mirrored in how I see young lesbians on the internet talk about women, or even the fandom adoption of “cinnamon roll, too pure, too good for this world.” No, we’re all people and sometimes we’re terrible people but mostly we’re fine.
