SHE IS THE BEST AND I LOVE HER.

Considering how swiftly he was dropped from House of Cards and All the Money in the World, I assumed everyone hates him and just needed an actual reason to not work with him. 

Hell, even D.C. Stephenson served 29 years in prison for the murder of Madge Oberholtzer, and that was in 1927! (AND membership in the KKK dropped precipitously in Indiana after Oberholtzer’s death.)

I did NOT like the way my roommate put her ornaments on our tree this year. It seemed like she intentionally put them RIGHT NEXT to my sister’s or my ornaments.

Set to a song by a Russian Jew!

Actually, the median income of a household in Kenner Square is $46,523. Men have a median income of $35,978 and women have one of $27,246.

I honestly had no idea who she was until I saw her in This Is Our Youth on Broadway a few years ago. I thought she was good, not great, but I did get why people liked her so much. She did seem to have an elusive It factor. (I missed her in The Crucible but did also see her in The Cherry Orchard, but that wasn’t a…

I wish the article had clearly said where the school was, because I was going to jump in and say that post-Katrina New Orleans’ schools were a goddamn mess, and it wouldn’t surprise me if a school like this got in even years after Katrina. But it’s in Beaux Bridge, Louisiana, not New Orleans.

While I don’t own any high-end shoes (unless Anne Klein is high end), I find Payless children’s shoes to be surprisingly well-made and comfortable. As a woman with a small foot who, I like the option to skip past the size 5 1/2 and 6 and right to the children’s 3 1/2 and 4, especially as vanity sizing moves into…

Our moms are the same mom.

I was hoping for a shoutout to this quote in a recent interview Patti LuPone did for the New York Times about traveling.

I’m really glad the author noted how common it was for women (and men) to have romantically charged friendships (really up until the Victorian era). So much time was spent in a homosocial experience, that it was just natural for people to form very intense relationships with people of the same gender. That doesn’t…

Women can be abusive in heterosexual relationships, too. 

I’ve mentioned this in other comments here (I think), but I’ve been doing a lot of genealogical research over the past year or so. My family is, as far as I know, exclusively European, mostly from Ireland and Italy. They came to the United States between 1850 and 1915, before we had the same concept of legal and…

My grandmother (mother’s mother) smoked forever, because when she was 85 what was really the point in getting her to quit? My mom’s only 57, so there’s much more reason to quit.

I would think *she* would be recognized, since she’s been all over the news for months. However, there’s over 400 members of the House, and now all of these new people? Since politicians don’t tend to be as young as she is...I might also assume she’s an intern or staffer and not the elected official. 

Same. And also The First Wives Club.

I’m not sure exactly how long she was on the patch, but she started on Mother’s Day and probably was off the patch by mid-summer. I think a big reason she was successful was that she came to the decision herself. It wasn’t because a doctor told her or because she had some major health scare. She wasn’t feeling great…

I’m here to brag that my mother just recently quit smoking after 40 years, and even though she weaned herself by using a patch, I’m SO GLAD she made the conscious decision to not vape or use an e-cig or anything else.

Ironically she’s from The Silent Generation.
