The law is an ass. Again.

Same goes for people, I'm afraid.

Fantastic story! Thanks for sharing.

Good grief. Can you not see how perception of what constitutes looking 'good' or 'bad' is completely subjective? Just because your personal views are so completely dictated by the vagaries of contemporary taste doesn't mean everyone else is such a sheep! You say you think rings look 'better' on long, thin fingers as…

Does she have any Siamese in her? They tend to behave like that :)

From the NYT piece: "To this day the population of domestic cats is maintained in a semiferal state by the practice of neutering. About the only males available for domestic female cats to breed with are the wildest and least people-friendly tomcats who have escaped into the feral cat population. Some 85 percent of…

I just checked Acure out online and it looks great. I will definitely give it a try. Thanks!

I know it's been around for ages, but I love this gif. LOVE it. It's always so freaking apt.

What's a natural beauty brand that's considered cheap and good-quality? My skin likes Dr Hauschka (but that is expensive); Weleda seems ok; Burt's Bees is horrible. I used to like Neal's Yard Apothecary when I was in London, but I've never seen it in NYC. Any thought or suggs would be very appreciated...

Wow. Just reading through these comments. Seems like most people's first reaction is to mock. This makes me confused, since I'm forever reading comments complaining that Jezebel isn't feminist enough (and yet here we are, mocking the men in 'ladies' clothes'), and most commenters would be pleading for tolerance (of…

Love it all. If I saw a guy wearing any of it, I would immediately assume he's gay. But in 20 years' time, maybe not - 20 years ago, I would have immediately assumed any guy who waxed his chest or wore makeup was gay, you know? And thank fuck. Men's fashion - and women's, for that matter - has hardly changed in the…

I'm sure! What about a dedicated arthouse cinema that shows old movies along with new (particularly foreign) releases, though? Is there one?

Maybe, but I'm reluctant to give up my anonymity on here - if only we could still private message! I've assisted on a bunch of features and feature-length docs, and cut half a dozen shorts and two indie features (another one lined up for March), so just starting out, really. British, 40ish. Journalist in a previous…

I'm a film editor in NYC and I really fancy living in LA for a while. BUT, I was recently in New Orleans for two weeks and I kind of went a little crazy because there was literally no equivalent to the Film Forum (http://www.filmforum.org/), or the Metropolitan Museum there. I know I would love the weather, food,…

Exactly. Which is why Couric gave her the chance to address that question. That is my point. I think you misread my comment :)

I honestly can't think of any other woman who is as goddamned laid-back, as proper-sexy, as genuinely old-Hollywood glamorous as Jemima Kirk right now. Her attitude in these photos is just perfection.

I'm sorry Madelaine, but I think you completely misread this and underestimated Katie Couric's journalistic skill in the process. In fact, Couric achieved her goal brilliantly - her goal being to normalize Trans people for mainstream America. You could tell the whole conversation was rehearsed because they had the…

I love Rioja; gotta try that Ribera. Thanks for the rec!

You should be. It's a waaaaaaay better movie.

Yes, been waiting for someone to film his books for years.
