This is the same calculated risk he keeps taking. If he is open in the public about it, he normalizes it for his base. And impeachment becomes less ‘right and wrong’ and more political.

Wait, Kylie had to be taken out to get her mind off the  “news”? That they broke up?

Yes, Rudy, you file your jaw suit against the swamp. But do it tomorrow, alright? You need your rest now...there there...are you chilly? We’ll have an orderly bring another blanket, ok? Oh! Look, Rudy. Rice pudding! With raisins! Your favorite!

Donald Trump is the President of the United States of America. Think about that for a second.

He’ll always be a 40 something in my heart.

Plus the absolutely gleeful refusal to agree to any boundaries when it comes to your kids. Don’t forget, it wasn’t just Diana being hounded to her literal death back in the day--Will and Harry grew up facing a wall of flashbulbs and horrendously inappropriate questions too. Harry knows what he’s talking about, and the…

That was apparently the movie that caused me to discover my own mother’s mortality. When Littlefoot’s mother died, I apparently turned to my mom and said, “mommy...you can die?” She somberly replied, “yes”...and then apparently I silently cried throughout the rest of the movie.

This Rugrats movie didn't make me cry, but the scene in Rugrats in Paris where Chuckie didn't have a mommy to dance with during the Mommy/child dance at Grandpa Lou's wedding tore me up.

Upon further reflection, maybe part of the reason I cried was a “loss of innocence” feeling (am I reading too much into this?). I was about 9 or 10 when the movie came out and I’d grown up a Nickelodeon kid to the core, had been watching the adventures of Tommy & the gang for most of my childhood. The addition of Dil…

The first time I cried in the theater, I would have been 8.  My mom took my brother and I to see The Land Before Time.  The scene where Little Foot’s mom dies killed me (and let’s be real, still does.)

Wait, is this a thing? I once had a 15-year-old boy in my summer school class who made me feel uneasy for some reason I couldn’t put my finger on, and he turned out to be a 22-year-old Ukrainian national who’d overstayed his visa and was paying some family to “adopt” him. He’s now in prison on a bunch of charges.

UGHHH. I just posted my vent about Phil, and I’m binging so now I’m here for Michelle and Helena. I could take it or leave it with Helena. She’s been a one trick pony and there’s only so many “goth” takes I can handle with her bakes before I’m eye-rolling and over it (2. it was 2 episodes and then I stopped caring).…

I remember being a teen and being stupid and impressionable. Part of me is just like, teens are always going to do dumb things.

Nope, he was totally normal, typical grandpa sort of guy. Of course hindsight being perfect, my husband realized that the first step he took with our son was something he’d done with my husband also: Showing him porn (my husband, to be fair, was 15-ish I think, and it was justified as a form of giving him “the talk”).

About 13 years ago I was a smoker looking to quit. E-cigs seemed like a way for me to have the physical sensation of smoking which I missed with nicotine gum or a patch. At that time e-cigs came in graduated nicotine levels INCLUDING ZERO NICOTINE. The fact that Juul refuses to offer a zero nicotine product says to…

Please just stop.

This is the hill that you take your stand?

She looks like Fleabag’s sister, Claire!

I feel a little bad for Ashton? Like he was dumb but... it happens. Life is complicated. It seems like Demi had her own struggles with addiction and that is not the same as cheating, but, it is a strain, and it gets hard to continually support someone when they relapse over and over and over and you never know if it’s…

Ex used to scream "You're exasperating the situation!" Of course I exacerbated the situation,  after that.
