I always thought the Bachelor/Bachelorette show wasn’t about the ‘love/win’ at the end, but about allllll the eliminations, ie break-ups, leading up to it. Given the weeks of watching contestants get the boot, it seems to me this is why people watch: who didn’t measure up, and why.

I seem to recall the books had Chuck Bass as a maybe queer, and yep, a despised villan. <eye roll>

I think that was Bradley Cooper and Suki Waterhouse...

It makes me laugh at how put-upon she sounds.

Don’t forget the ‘group’ of management who covered for this shitweasel by getting NDAs, and made him sign something that basically says:

HR gal here. I can’t help but think that if he was fired just two days after a tweet that management already knew. They fucking knew. You can bet there are some NDAs in a locked desk. That hidden history is what let them drop the axe that fast on their failson-bestboi.

One of the babymill children has ‘Wilberforce’ as a middle name, which is a conservative batsignal word for anti-abortion. Just ....

For a long time I could ride on the coattails of being ‘divorced’. No explanation necessary. But since it’s been a couple of decades, there is speculation my ex  broke my heart, and I never recovered. Um, no. I was able to do a comparison, and single comes out far, far ahead.

If Jr’s modeling his new outfits on the ‘gram, he’s probably got some under-the-table sponcon deal with these outfitter brands. js.

That happiness is an illusion. The problem with narcissists is they don’t age well. They poison their own well every time: they lose jobs and shed friendships, and then they become hyper-vigilent and thin-skinned. It’s never their fault, and they become master manipulators to ensure that truth is never, ever challenged

It will not do to investigate the subject of religion too closely, as it is apt to lead to infidelity. -Abraham Lincoln, 16th US President (12 Feb 1809-1865)

PBS was savage in covering Nielson at this event.

I think she’s very underrated as a comedienne, and I think it’s because she’s not ‘wacky’. Aniston plays it straight, which is harder, and funnier.

I went on the pill when I was sixteen.

It used to be a rite of passage that creatives were expected to seek out isolation as part of their self-actualization. It was not ‘weird’ but rather a respectable pursuit of excellence. Think of Walden, Dickinson, Wordsworth, or Rilke. Moses, if you partake.

I loved the scene after Logan ‘broke’ Conner and paid his eldest son off to stop his political run. He neatly and thoroughly decimated his eldest’s spirit. You can see Conner curled up and crying over the bow of the ship in pain and humiliation, wearing pink, while Logan talks calmly to the gathered, as if he just had

Welp, Abby power-flounced off Twitter.

I remember Michelle Obama expanded the white house grounds to hold a large community garden.

Imagine being so narcissistic that you feel fit to judge all others by your self-appointed inanity.

Maybe they are preparing the yacht clubsters some post-Warren ironic wearables. Like trucker caps on millionaires, but more in your face.
