God. That article. Does Jane Brody have any qualifications other than “health columnist”? She was complaining about people baking BREAD at HOME during the pandemic. Every healthy eating initiative I’ve volunteered with has claimed that the biggest change you can make to improve people’s diets is to get more meals…

I don’t have time to listen to the interview you link to, but your article implies (by the use of the phrase “it’s worth noting, without being asked a full question...?} that the fact that Sharon may have been trying to get in front of the question is a bad thing.

Reminds me of when I brought my toddler in for his annual shots and when they were done they handed him a sticker. I said “What about the lollypop?” and they said they don’t do that any more because it promotes obesity. A lollypop. You can’t give a crying two year old a lollypop even though sugar actually acts as an…

Do you have bipolar? Because if not, it’s very different. Smoking weed all the time basically makes the meds not work, so it’s almost like you’re unmedicated. It also puts that person in a situation where as soon as the high wears off, the BP kicks in hard. Alcohol, with a lot of BP medications, can destroy your…

Is there anything out there remaining for Wen to intentionally misunderstand so she can let us all know how smug and self-righteous she is? "Well actually..."

what is ‘broke’ for celebrities? because I feel broke because I cant afford a house. And honestly, I’m not that broke, rather comfortable really.

I’m a dude. Full disclaimer there.

we agreed that it was best to part ways

As a Black woman, I gotta disagree with this one. Locking down accounts and removing old racist/sexist/homophobic tweets is pretty much Employability 101 at this point. Not tweeting them in the first place is even better. Nearly all recruiters for high-profile jobs check social media. Parsing out “ignorant” vs.…

Yes, she was just 17. I do think there should be space to show change (something the commentariat of this site should probably say even when they don’t like the person). But no, she’s not being cancelled. She lost a management position that was vulnerable for a 27 year old with no management experience in a different…

Hi Jezzies! Yesterday marked 10 — TEN! — weeks since my last drink. Since I posted about it 2 weeks ago on SNS, the icy midwest tundra has started to melt and there are more opportunities for outdoor distance hangs on friends’ patios.

We should probably start talking about global vaccine inequities. While many wealthy nations expect to have so many vaccines by the end of the year, if not much sooner, that their main challenge by that point will be convincing skeptical groups to take it, most other countries are looking at years—YEARS—before they…

Yeah, don’t really know if that’s a woke thing. It’s woke millenials and zoomers that first really championed ideas like fluidity and queerness, so it sounds more like a hip (gen x) thing to me.

Right? This reminds me of the guy who wouldn’t teach his daughter how to use a can opener.

Besides being racist, and, you know, stupid, this also counterproductive. Ever ask a 5 year old to clean anything? How good of a job did they do? For fuck sakes...

What da fuq? Does this school not have a janitor? Even if they didn’t have a janitor, then this is still a task that an adult carries out. Fucking outrageous stupidity, and assholery above and beyond. I have no words.

As a former child myself, I’m astonished the shit adults inflict on children that we’d never do to another adult.

I don’t have a kid and there is still a laundry list of people for whom I would literally take a bullet, move across the country, lose sleep, sacrifice my health and well-being, etc. Maybe I’m a freakishly empathic and caring anomaly, but I’d really like to think that I’m not. I think a lot of people love their…

I think it’s possible to care about people other than yourself but to make decisions that benefit yourself first and foremost. You can be the type of person who composts, recycles, volunteers, protests, uses reusable bags, etc. but when choosing where to live makes the decision based on what’s best for your own…

Always appropriate to remind people: Anyone who does not want to have children... and DOES NOT have children should be applauded.
