To be fair, your old man who sells tractors was probably once a baby. Unless, of course, he’s Benjamin Buttoning us in which I’d suggest giving him a wide berth.

Frederick...(she said morosely.)

I feel like your neighbor’s basic info is the beginning of a great sitcom.

Yeah. I think they break you down in Hollywood. One of my favorite things about the Black Mirror episode 15 Million Merits was how it kind of showed the options of women in the patriarchal media— you can be chubbier and be mocked for it, be average and be ignored or be pretty and be exploited. Of course, the episode…

Because they got in her head. :(

I’LL BRING FRESH-BREWED COFFEE AND BREAD

I made Ina Garten’s Weeknight Bolognese http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ina-ga… It’s delicious. Love the cream, fresh basil and red pepper flakes, but I also always add chopped carrots and mushrooms and use linguine instead of orrecchiette. I just think it goes better with noodles than small shells. And the best…

Ham salad sandwiches on brioche!

I’LL BRING THE WINE AND BREAD

It’s a teen movie. But with adults. Love you Tina and Amy...but this looks very, very lame.

*sigh*

Made some shrimp enchiladas! I had to improvise a lot because I was too lazy to grocery shop, so the sauce part so is literally lime juice and sour cream whisked together.

I’ve been saying this for a while- I wish there was a “introduce refugees to America" program. If I could free or reduced rent in exchange for living with a refugee family, helping them with job searching, childcare options, tax/immigration forms, English (if necessary), and just spend my free time helping them get…

Yikes. That is awful. I worked in the courts for a year before moving into civil litigation practice, and it’s rough. I wanted to believe Canada was so much better at dealing with sexual violence than, say, the States - but it’s not.

—The Rev. D.J. Horton, senior pastor of Anderson Mill Road Baptist Church, said dozens from his flock of 2,300 had already completed refugee support training. “It’s very hard to read your Bible, especially your New Testament, and refuse refuge to people who are vulnerable,” he said.—

I don’t know, but I used to live behind a John Birch Society Book Store, and I went in to browse so often that they invited me to one of their picnics. The place was fascinating. They had a lot of “US out of the UN” stickers and buttons. They were really into that.

Oh FFS. I live on the Isle Wight (off the south coast of the UK). It has a population of about 220,000 and is incredibly white and pretty conservative. Also kind of insular - there are people that go over to the mainland maybe once a year if that. Nonetheless our MP with the backing of the vast majority of the island…

I never knew that. That’s both sad and beautiful.

Rick Moranis isn’t in it, but after his wife passed away, he retired from acting (at the height of his career no less) to become a stay-at-home dad so his kids could always come home to a parent after school. Which is so awesome that I can’t be mad at him for not doing any more movies with his comedic talent.

Terrible person Meyer said the footage will “shock her fans,” adding that he has “unfinished business” with Lopez.
