It seems the BBC has caught the le Carré bug. They were working on (and now airing) one of his older books, The Night Manager, and it’s been doing really well. So well in fact, after airing only three of the six parts, they’ve already been in contact with le Carré to come up with more material for a season two. It…

Recommended articles for this story just reminded me BBC was supposed to be making that Bronte sisters movie. Did that ever actually happen?

I went to the Celebrity Center this past weekend for a meeting. I thought the organizer had just rented space, but nope, he was One of Them and it was creepy as fuck.

This dude is having a laugh

Wow, suddenly my disability is gone! I can walk without a cane! Hell I can run, I can even run well!

See I got lured in to reading Rushdie through Shalimar the Clown, which I had never heard of but which I honestly thought was wonderful. But then I could never get past the first chapter of anything else... These assholes always sneak one good one in, but of course it’s never the one that the critics are howling about.

Which is kind of funny then as one of the All Saint members married an Oasis member.

Picture a white, wealthy 40-something man in a Whole Foods ignoring his attractive 30-something blonde wife and sneering at all of the other wealthy white people shopping at Whole Foods. Do you want to read a book narrated by and starting that man? If so, you’ll love Franzen.

if i had her money, i’d be one too

Will there be a trip through the East coast area where the white guy meets zany characters? Including a wise man of color? Does he bed a free spirited woman who teaches him something about his life? Will he come back to his roots at the end and understand himself a bit better and speak of the skies and the end of…

How much do you guys wanna pay me to write a Jonathan Franzen novel? It’s about a dissatisfied upper-middle-class white genius who doesn’t feel challenged by his wife. But it’s really about, like, America.

I can’t watch this yet because I’m at work, but I just wanted to jump in and say I really like Alexa Chung. I met her years ago when she was dating Alex Turner from Arctic Monkeys and I was their runner for the day and she was the sweetest.

Pfffffft nobody who has naturally curly hair in this straight-haired culture is happy with it. When curls come back into fashion, the way they were in the ‘80s, wake me up then! Right now, you get called ‘unprofessional’ or ‘unkempt’ (or even ‘unhygienic’) if you don’t iron your curls. Bah humbug.

Et tu, Bruschetta?

I tried to do something similar with 19th Century beauty tips but my channel got pulled for the DIY Complexion Wafers tutorial.

I don’t know. My old boss was a Sandhurst man, son of a Sandhurst man, and grandson of a Sandhurst man. He did not seem the type, but he was in Northern Ireland. Posh officer though.

You don’t know the half of it. It’s so shameful. I wish someone would tell these young Somalis in post-secondary because they think themselves to be virtuous.

Anyone who knows anything about Salman Rushdie knows he’s a sleazebag and a bad person. Many artists are. In fact, he reminds me of my ex who was a short weird looking intellectually impressive writer and narcissist. Appreciate Rushdie’s words, disregard the pitiful man behind them.

Endometriosis is no joke. I’ve had 5 surgeries and even had to go on FMLA due to recovery. But, literally, no one took it seriously except my doctor. My boss scoffed at me, my husband had a hard time understanding, and my family was just confused. I think it may be because people think “it’s just cramps” and that…

He was forever dead to me the day he slagged off The Wire...
