In addition to the two exceptions you mention, there are a few other limited cases where there’s evidence that specefic vitamins help.

So you’ve watched OINTB and think her acting is sub par? Genuinely asking. If so, that’s a valid opinion. Just seems like we should be judging her on her most noteworthy role rather than the random one-off shows that didn’t make it (and which most actors would give a limb for). I think she was great, as was most of…

It’s funny- I was asking for shows to watch during recovery, and a woman I kinda know through our kids’ school suggested it in response to my FB query. I was like, “yeeeeah, great. Thanks. Really looking for shows to watch without the kids right now”. And she messaged me and said, “just watch it. By yourself. You’ll…

Thank you for saying this. I really needed to hear it.

YES!!!! We adore WBB in this household. I watched a shit ton of it this fall while stuck in bed recovering from spinal fusion. Good times.

He looks soooo much like my dad when my dad was younger (although my dad rocked an impressive jew-fro rather than Bernie’s bedhead look).

Where do you lovely jezzies buy bras? I am in desperate need of better fitting bras. About five years ago I got measured at Fredrick’s of Hollywood and was told I was a 36E. That worked well for years, but I’ve lost around 30 lbs and they’re not cutting it anymore. I’ve tried 34E but the cups gaped a bit. Also tried…

I need to look that up. Thanks for the tip.

Forgot about STEPS. I think I agree, although I would need to read it again to be sure. Thanks for the reminder :)

My grandparents were also Polish Holocaust survivors. It’s a hell of a thing. Not that they talked about it much (or at all....my dad didn’t even know they were Jewish until he was 13). It still managed to cast a long shadow on their lives and even mine. They raised me and there was so much fear, self-hate, confusion.…

Not to split hairs, but it’s spelled “Jerzy”.

So, I’ve never actually heard her name, only read it. Since she’s a Brit, I’ve assumed that it’s pronounced the Brit way....emphasis on the first syllable and with a short “i”. That makes it unlike the syrup and personally I prefer it.

Yes, exactly. My Jewish grandparents left Poland in 1939 to study architecture in Switzerland (they had both grown up in Warsawa but didn’t meet and fall in love until they were studying abroad). They elected to return to Poland in 1940. It was a terrifying time and they wanted to be with their families.

Hmmm....most cops are even more extreme reactionary renegades, so this guy is measured? Um, ok.

I did watch the video. Clearly the kid is not black; in my anger I conflated the fate of this kid and kids like him with the “Black Lives Matter” movement. I should have been more clear, but I belief my point still stands.

Wow, those are quite some leaps in logic there. Yeah, I said “ I don’t care if the kid said ‘I’m going to shoot him’” (as oppossed to “I’m going to sue him”). How does that suggest I believe that kids don’t ever carry guns??? I live in East Oakland, and believe me, I’m well aware that way too many kids carry guns.…

Yeah, didn’t say anything remotely like that. Sure, some 13 year olds carry guns. From the limited information available to us, there is no reason to think this white dude who is more importantly an ADULT and a POLICE OFFICER had credible reason to believe there was a threat.

Thank you so much for this!!!

Jesus. Fucking. CHRIST. This wholesale assault on young black men has to stop. This is why “Black Lives Matter” is important, people. And it’s fucking sickening that there isn’t more widespread outrage about this. UGH

It’s funny that you say this, because I was listening to NPR in the car and my nine year old son said of Trump’s administration taking on the Anne Frank Center “That seems like a really bad idea”.
