What kind of bothered me was that Dany chose to execute Varys but... NO ONE ELSE??? If she’s that concerned about The Secret then surely she’d remove every threat as soon as she could, especially the most high-profile ones like Jon and Tyrion, especially considering her new violent, “fear is the only way” mentality.

This episode was FUCKING AWFUL. D&D just destroyed 7 seasons with of character development with stupid, idiotic nonsensical choices so that they could move on to other projects. Fucking disgraceful.

I’ve found myself feeling depressed about the situation in GA this week. I’m with someone and we’re thinking seriously about trying to start a family, which is daunting enough since I’m nearing 40 and am scared of fertility issues, but the thought of what happens now if something goes wrong is terrifying.

You are very fucking much in the right to be skeeved out by this nonsense. If I were in your position I would be telling him in no uncertain terms to never contact me again. I mean, I clearly don’t know the guy but his feigned coyness “I’m just a simple man embarrassed by his feels UwU” foolery strikes me as…

Aren’t dogs & bears sort of closely related in the animal kingdom? Could that explain this teaming up?

Anyway, I just need to offload something that happened earlier this week.
Backstory: back in January, my boss let go our Accounting/Payroll guy. He was not a good collaborator, didn’t follow direction well and had…

But I guarantee that the reason why she tried to humiliate the woman isn’t really because of the food, nah. It’s because that the worker essentially told her to go fuck herself. That is the only reason why this happened.


HOW DARE THAT LOWLY EMPLOYEE THINK SHE CAN TALK TO ME, A WHITE, WORLD CLASS AUTHOR LIKE THAT!!!!…

It’s so crazy how people look the other way when people break rules fifty eleven times a day, but when a person of color does it, suddenly IT’S ALL ABOUT MAKING AN EXAMPLE.

I wonder how many times Jeff did that. And how many times it didn’t work. And he still did it.  And what did he do with the batteries?

OH MY GOD. I cannot think of a more disgusting way to be hit on that doesn’t involve an actual crime. 

The move was only about a block away so I felt comfortable being a little casual with my packing. One of my choices was to tape up the drawers of my night tables rather than empty them. My boyfriend at the time (now husband) handled the tape duty. When they arrived at the destination I noticed that the tape was a…

I have a friend who has a great story of being young and dumb deeeeeep in Brooklyn back when people paid their rent in cash to the large Italian man who came around to collect it from the everyone in the neighborhood every month. She lived above an obvious mob front, the store only sold pencils and erasers and had a…

1. We vacuumed EVERYTHING. Twice.

Um, a couple of questions.

I just want sympathy points: my worst move happened LAST WEEK and I don’t even have any awful or hilarious anecdotes, it was just mundane gruelling stress of being given notice of eviction, frantically trying to find a new place in a horrific rental market (Dublin, Ireland), managing to land a place, and moving all…

I was getting ready to move from one city to another, Being my usual meticulous self, I arranged for a truck, movers, packing supplies, etc. I even had a color-coded task chart. Three days before the move, two carloads of my family members showed up unannounced and said they were going to help me move RIGHT THEN. No…

Was planning a move with my boyfriend at the time. We had secured the new apartment but had only started packing up the stuff and wouldn’t be ready to move in for about a week.

I heartily disagree with your points about Old Fashioneds and “surprise me’s.” Old Fashioneds are a delicious alternative to whiskey (I adore bourbon and always have whiskey at home, but I don’t make cocktails). And I have had my mind opened by bartenders who want to try out something adventurous - I would not have…

I just spent a week drinking my way through Italy and you cannot escape the Aperol spritz. It’s literally everywhere at all times of the day or night. And it’s fine. I wouldn’t go out of my way and say it’s delicious, but for sitting at a sidewalk table at a cafe, watching people go by? It’s perfect. The best one I…

I’m starting to lose track of which thing is trendy and when. I thought the Aperol Spritz was last summer’s big cocktail, and this summer all the food internet sites are going in on the Paloma? What I’m saying here is that this spicy take seems stale to me.

“Drinks like a Capri Sun after soccer practice on a hot day” as criticism is the equivalent of “feels like a deep tissue massage after a long day working on a road crew”, e.g. maybe not something I would have instantly thought of be sounds fantastic nonetheless. It totally makes me want to try one.
