“...they fear that one of the groups (“Thanos-like”) will be given pink slips, with the other told it is safe.”

This happened to me, my wife wandered into bed with her marvelous pale skin and I thought she was a ghost. I shrieked and she’s never let me live it down.

One night, while wearing my white nightgown, I returned to bed where my partner was already asleep. He suddenly wakes, screaming in terror at me. It was so sudden and unexpected, I started screaming back at him. For a brief moment we were both in a horror movie. Fun times.

i’ve been fascinated with the woman in white trope ever since traveling to mexico and learning about la llorona. i see her as a symbol of the violence that is done to women, a haunting of the conscience for men in patriarchal societies who know they’ve done something wrong and caused pain, but prefer to keep that pain…

Hey now, Chrissy Teigen is famous on her own merits, she’s a model, a chef, and an “influencer” (I dislike the term, but it doesn’t mean she isn’t damn good at it). Don’t just reduce her to “singer’s wife”.

1) Can we have John and Chrissy be the new first couple until Trump is out of office? Any objections?
2) Trump is neither a pussy nor a bitch. Pussies are tough, they really take a pounding. And bitches get things done. Trump is a flaccid penis. 

To quote Margo from the Magicians:

The case is much more complex than it appears here.  He stopped his B-12 shots which is an indication that his parents were letting him make his medical decision.  He apparently was missing many essential vitamins, but there is no mention of having him take supplements.  It sounds like a kid with a real problem like…

Why are you reducing this to anything to do with “shaming”? As if there is anything wrong with the truth: Eating poorly is a terrible thing. Seemingly well-fed people can literally die of malnutrition or bad eating habits. Poor nutrition, whether by choice or from poverty, leads to many, many illnesses and premature…

In the good old days we’d just force kids to eat shit they didn’t like. Not woke, but keeps them alive and healthy.

I remember there was a lot of hubbub locally about the Santa Monica Observer running a story speculating that Skaggs died of an opioid overdose.  They ended up pulling the article due to personal threats against their employees as well as legal threats from attorneys representing the team and the player.  I wonder if…

I get the parent’s grief. But blaming some locker room attendant for running out to score him some drugs and not Skagg’s himself is some next level denial. His death is indeed tragic and I wish he got some help, but it was his decision to make this fatal mistake. Jamming up some underling is bullshit.

This is just sad. I battled with addiction for a number of years and have been sober for 4 years now. I count myself lucky that I cleaned myself up before fentanyl started flooding the market. I have known so many people...good people...that have died as a result of this shit that I sometimes feel desensitized to the…

I’m feeling admiration for a sports talk host? What the shit is going on??

Pitaro was hoisted by his own Le Batard.

The biggest advantage of paper books is that they do not connect to the internet. The closest thing to a pop-up notification you will get while reading a paper book is a post-it note.

They were unapologetically American. Brash and confident. They came in as the favorite and they didn’t try to downplay that fact with an “Aww shucks we’re just happy to be here and we’re gonna try real hard.” attitude. They owned that and then danced on the graves of anybody who dared doubt them. And it was fucking…

Crystal Dunn was the Player of the Match, though.

My wife makes fun of me for overengineering home projects. This article is now bookmarked as my retort.

That bare closet is now a bear closet.
