I’m glad the Queen allowed it. But she probably saw her mistake of not allowing Charles to marry Camilla back in the day.

This argument is always disingenuous bullshit. If I hand you a tool, and say, “this tool can make millions of people’s lives better, and you’re the only one who can use it,” and you decide that that’s not what you signed up for and just walk away from it, that isn’t a defensible position, much less one deserving…

I’m the biggest anti-monarchist ever, AND I’ve never gotten round to being married - it seems SO WRONG that I’m the most excited in this room. It’s like no-one cares about the engagement of two people they have never met or ever will meet... (I am so looking forward to the fashion parade, Meghan being tons more…

In what universe is MELANIA TRUMP “protesting” this role as first lady so she doesn’t have to put her career on hold? What career? Modeling? It’s not like she had some booming personal venture and career path that she sacrificed in order to be first lady. She was doing....what? I googled it and can’t find any actual…

If you think for one hot minute that an essential mail order bride is skirting the responsibilities of first lady as a fuck you to the patriarchy, then I guess sometimes we need fantasy in difficult times.

michelle obama sure seemed to think the position had responsibilities, and i, for one, thank her for her herculean efforts.

we didn’t want this either, melania...

Can you share your dad? Please?

This is my second year hosting my own tiny Thanksgiving where I invite my friend*, and we get Indian food and watch movies and hang out and it is amazing and fun and I am never going to family Thanksgiving with all my weird-ass, Trump-voting, condescending, uptight, anti-choice, let’s-argue-for-fun relatives ever…

You could send them a special Christmas card with your family all wearing matching “Black Lives Matter” t-shirts.

In some families, trying to opt out of holiday gatherings just creates an even bigger shit show.

The kid is 13. We told them that their shit made her uncomfortable. Their response was that we’re raising a godless child and they felt it was their duty to “correct” that. Our daughter didn’t tell us about this stuff for years because she thought we’d get mad at her. Instead, we feel terrible that she had to spend so…

And if you eat meat but have compassion for animals, please use your purchasing power to buy from the most ethical/humane sellers whenever possible. There’s a cognitive disconnect between loving animals and eating them... your purchasing decisions could help bridge that gulf and make a significant impact on how we do…

I fully accept my aiding and abetting in the turkey slaughter.

I never understood the reasoning behind lobbing a verbal grenades at the Thanksgiving table. If you don’t like your family’s company, stay the hell home or grin and bear it so the rest of us can have an enjoyable meal with people we only see once a year. It’s really not hard to shut yer yap.

Starting when I was 14, I had a boss who would touch just a little too much or make weird comments but it wasn’t overt and I didn’t learn until I was older how fucked it was. But IMO, I’d recommend if you can like spreading the word that you’re not a touchy person (dodge a hug, fake laugh it off) just to everyone and…

Girl if I knew the answer to that, do you think I would’ve dragged my ass to a baby shower last weekend?

I feel like *I* should get a body double for when I don’t feel like showing up for shit.

I’m not on the dating scene, but it seems to me from observation that men are the ones with all kinds of criteria and expectations on who is worthy of them, ultimately for them to whine and cry about women being shallow.

This is dating in 2017 and it blows.
