I love Teen Mom even though it is such a dumpster fire and I am technically a Serious Adult who has better things to do. Now I must check out your podcast.

LOL i was just gonna DM you and be like I dunno if I want to give Farrah the satisfaction of talking about her twice on 2 different platforms

But.. the Four Seasons is 10 minutes on foot from Cedar-Sinai. Why would you move into a house (which is likely farther away) when you can stay at a 5 star hotel?

My favorite is: “For the past few years Kanye and I have made almost all of our kids clothes and we have collaborated on a new kids line !” Kim announced. For a brief second I pictured Kim at a sewing machine while Kanye criticized her stitching and screamed at her for ruining his design; then, POOF, it was gone.

Whenever I go to my parents house for a weekend, I end up binge watching this on TLC. I’ll be there alone in the rain tomorrow and Debbie is my favorite consultants, her face in that clip was priceless. Bring on the awkwardness and Randy!

I think you mean the * other * Catholic Church where Jude Law is their young pope.

Linguistic profiling is real. Highly recommend the entire PBS doc Do You Speak American.

This is called “deficit mindset” and is about how people make assumptions from the way a person (usually a child) talks and acts that that child is stupid or unable to perform at a high academic level. It’s also prejudicial. Language cues and slang use are in no way related to a person’s intelligence, the same way…

Go fuck yourself. From deep down in the bottom of my very own whiteness, go fuck yourself.

WHOA! I just had a HUGE argument with my little sister about this. I told her I was able to finally get a medical appointment for someone close who had been getting the run around. I told her, “I just used my White-girl voice...” She went BALLISTIC! She said there is “no such thing as a white girl voice! There is just…

Charles and Camilla did a royal visit to my city (not in the UK) and Camilla apparently spent a good amount of time talking to and showing interest in the lives of women at a local domestic abuse shelter. I found this out via word-of-mouth, as the visit was not a photo-op (for obvious reasons), and therefore not…

No, Philip would never have been king. (If, say, Elizabeth had a serious health emergency that incapacitated her or killed her after Charles was born but before Charles reached majority, Philip probably would have been named Regent for the minor, but that wasn’t certain and never happened. And it may have been…

Kate and Wills can’t be happy about this. Someone will have to take over Phillip’s extensive (700+) patronages now.

Agreed. This is not a mid-life crisis. For one, he’s about a decade too old. For two, he didn’t leave his wife, he got kicked to the curb for being, apparently, a dick as a dad, which he acknowledges in the interview, and drinking and smoking too much. The crisis isn’t mid-life, it’s wanting unsupervised visitation…

The OA, The Big Short, Selma. Plus, his movies from the 90s make up for any drop in the projects he’s acted in lately imo.

I think the issue is the term “mid-life crisis”. Which conveys some sort of indulgent, weak freak out over one’s proximity to death. It sounds like he’s doing some necessary self-reflection and removing substances and behaviors that got in the way of having a healthy life and healthy relationships. That seems more…

I...believe him, actually. A lot of newly-sober people acquire hobbies to stay busy in the time they previously would have spent boozing/using.

Yes, I’m sure that back in 2013 no one knew anything about Hillary Clinton and her popularity was only due to lack of knowledge about her.

That was true in the primaries. But starting once he clinched the nomination, and certainly now that he’s the President, it was and is completely ridiculous to suggest that media ignore him. Reporting on him thoroughly and honestly (i.e., real-time fact-checking and eviscerating every untruth he utters) makes a hell…

I don’t think Sanders helped. 2016 came down to populism vs policy wonk. Clinton was in a damned if you do, damned if you don’t position- she could push back on Sanders, but not attack him, for several reasons. You don’t kick down, and Sanders was losing, so it was kicking down. If she pulled Sanders apart, point by…
