I’m in my early 40s here... my eldest goddaughter is 27 and a teacher and just got her first post-college apartment and I’m freaking out. It’s not that I want her to stay 5 years old forever or anything, but holy crap I can’t believe it!

My 40th was really special. My mom asked me if I wanted a party and she threw one with all my extended family (30-something people.) I love to cook & I catered my own birthday, making 8 racks of smoked baby back  ribs with grilled asparagus, zucchini, and mushrooms. My mom served mini cupcakes for dessert and it was…

That’s a darling image, but I wouldn’t want Cyrus and the paparazzi that follow her anywhere near St. Paul.

I actually thought he could balance out her performative “zaniness” quite nicely, but maybe he got depressed and passive-aggressive while she went hard into her “I’m sO uNcOnVENTionAL!” shtick. 

This is the celebrity gossip I didn’t know I needed! 

I often wish I did wear the apron as I inevitably stain beloved tees with oil splattered from cooking.

I find their buy on-line & pick up in store (or car) leads to far fewer impulse buys. That being said, I <3 Target.

I always think it’s Brandon Lee...Bruce Lee’s son. 

I can’t stop laughing. I have wiped literal tears from my eyes. Thank you!

Yup. I love my pit, but I would never subject her to flying on a plane because while she is my emotional support animal (lowercase), she would be anxious the entire time as would I.

I think I’ve outgrown most of the snark here, which is a bit sad for me. I love the commentariat, though!

THANK YOU.

‘bootleg drag Kerry Washington impersonator’ is now my new makeup aspiration.

Okay - I was sad too when Walker died, too, because he was a major celebrity crush when I was younger. I think he can be acknowledged for doing philanthropic work but also dating a 16 year old when you’re not also a teenager is awful and what the fuck was wrong with him?

I started watching Castle in syndication because I enjoyed the evolution of Katic’s hairstyles. I’m a procedural junkie, but in the first episode when Fillion smells her hair it was like, “What?” I’m wondering if Hawley’s just not a great showrunner.

Fillion’s been coasting on the goodwill generated by the Firefly fandom for decades, it seems.

I think when he died the franchise went from being scrappy small-time hoods to international A-team which is when it went downhill for me. Walker was definitely a fucking gross person, 100% agree.

Unfortunately after reading this story a couple years ago, I don’t believe she’ll suffer any negative consequences from this mess. Rich people very, very rarely do.

Right? It really hasn’t been the same since Paul Walker died. 🤷🏾‍♀️
