I have a family friend who dresses his young son in bright colors (he & his wife buy them in whichever section of the store has cheaper offerings) and frequently refers to his son by the female-sounding diminutive in public. He & his wife do NOT give a fuck about gender norms &, if I do have kids, I hope I have the…

Evidently she wasn’t old enough to read Time magazine in 1927. I find it fascinating how the arbitrary color-coding of which gender wears which color basically flip-flopped in the span of a couple decades.

Congratulations GMG Union on your new contract!

As a two-time winner of my work chili cook-offs, I have earned bragging rights. I am also aware that most Minnesotans do not understand the concept of ‘spice’ and therefore, as an Indian, I may have an unfair advantage.

This is the second time today I have read that excerpt. The first was after reading about the Northams’ Halloween shenanigans. Your username is apt right now, it’s been a long month.

Yes. I think Pelosi is the hero we need right now, but I’m not thrilled with all of that. 

As a recovering alcoholic, I’m happy my doctor trusts me with an ativan prescription.

Meh. There’s 60M other people in the U.S. fighting for that mantle.

She was diagnosed with celiac while working on Blue Bloods I think & it affected her hardcore. She has an allergen-free bakery now and published some books about coping with celiac, so I hope everything’s worked out for her. She had a season-long stint on NCIS. I wonder if she doesn’t want a full-time tv acting gig…

Exactly. Mainly the rumors I read were related to her celiac diagnosis and not wanting to work 12+ hours days on set for Blue Bloods.

I agree with you. IIRC, it supposedly related to her celiac disease & the long hours demanded on the set of Blue Bloods.

I really like her, despite reading rumors that she’s difficult to work with. 

Sam Bee was right. Although, feckless is too kind a word for Ivanka.

They should just take one out that says, “We really want to fuck you!” and be done with it. 

“I put my drink down,” Nick recalled to Vogue when spying his wife on that special night. “Get on one knee—this is in front of a bunch of people—and I say, ‘You’re real. Where have you been all my life?’ Like, loud.”

And Kris, if you’re reading this, what was the deal with Kris Humphries? That one still bugs me.

This recap is actually making me wish I’d seen this episode because of the guest stars.

The Kardashians Koverage has gotten me so cynical that I just wonder whether Jordyn Woods has her reality show contract signed yet.

Even all the FLOTUSes I didn’t like (Nancy & Barbara, I’m looking at you) would never do something so overtly horrific and provocative. Melania’s just an asshole with a smaller megaphone than her horrible husband.

Ashley, I’m so sorry you’ve drawn this beat.
