I really can’t call Meryl petty for wanting to clear her name. Lagerfeld was extremely unprofessional and the move wreaks of headline grabbing. I hope he suffers some kind of fallout. This should have been handled over the telephone not in the tabloids. DONT COME FOR MERYL

Matilda was the book that made me want to read as much as possible. I remember wanting to make sure I read every one of the books she read.

I named my daughter Clementine. Nobody knows she was named after the character from Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. I can’t wait for my girl to be old enough to watch it together.

YESSSSSSSSS. Judi Dench could be a guest on the Jerry Springer show, howling obscenities, and still be sophisticated.

You seem awesome.

Matilda is such a fucking treasure. It’s so high on the list of required reading for my future daughter.

I really loved The Reader and am surprised it’s still so under appreciated Kate’s pretty amazing in everything and she’s chosen some wonderful films. Have you seen Holy Smoke or Hideous Kinky ?

The Lion in Winter is my absolute favorite movie, by a LOT, but I haven’t really thought beyond that.

I loooove Eternal Sunshine ! The first time I watched it though it left me feeling incredibly sad. The second time I somehow found it more hopeful. Not sure why. I agree with you about it being a mediocre year. Let’s hope for wildly impassioned anti-Trump political acceptance speeches.

***pregnancy boring stuff***

Oscars thread !!!

You made a typo. ‘The guy ruining the White House.’

I booked a trip to Florence and the Naples area in Italy! I’m so excited! I’ve never been. My husband is excited about the food, especially gelato, I am so excited about the art! I definitely plan to go to the Uffizi Gallery, and the Brancacci Chapel so I can prove what I’ve been saying since History of Western Art 1,…

She should just do a Trump version of Fucked My Way Up to the Top and sing it on CNN Tonight with Don Lemon.

At the stroke of midnight

So many news outlets are boycotting this dinner. So, it sounds like a case of Trump going, “Oh, you’re boycotting me? You can’t do that. I am boycotting you! So, there. How you like them apples? Sad!!!”

I didn’t mean flamenco dancers. I meant belly dancers. The tapas place I go to sometimes has a belly dancer a couple nights a week. And they have plenty of options for what I can eat, just like the vast majority of restaurants I go to. So you can get outta here with your condescending tone.

I’m a chef you fucking idiot. I know exactly what it means and I know it’s a fucking rip off, because I know what all that shit fucking costs. Go be a hipster moron 5 years behind the trends before trying to engage with people who actually know what the fuck they’re talking about.

Folks, if you are going to a tapas restaurant and there’s a belly dancer, you are in a tacky nightmare. A trap for white people who don’t know any better. Abort immediately.
