Have heard an apocryphal story where someone asked Eric Clapton what it felt like to be the greatest guitar player on the planet. His response: “I don’t know. Ask Prince.”

It gets kind of lost behind his lyrics, his persona, and the drama that has always sort of surrounded him, but it's worth noting that Prince was one of the greatest guitar players of this or any other generation.

MY MAID OF HONOR WAS A LENTIL!

I’ve got one - “Well, I know a Person A and B that had a $5 lentil wedding and now they’re TOGETHER FOREVER and THE KING AND QUEEN OF LOVE and I know a Person C and D who spent MONEY ON THEIR WEDDING and now they’re DIVORCED and live in HELL.”

-Choosing to take your husband’s…

Your problem is that you have too many friends. I don’t know 26 people well enough to be invited to their weddings. It’s cheaper that way.

I found nothing in mine except a long list of students who think Facebook Messenger is an appropriate medium for contacting their professor when they’ve missed class.

The real question is, how long does she have to hold that pose? I think it’d be great if, 5 seconds in, she gets all wobbly and her smile starts to turn into a strained grimace as she struggles to maintain her balance.

We Scots fellas are also emotionally repressed. Until we have a drink. Then people just wish we were emotionally repressed.

their goal is to return America to the early 1950s

Dear GOP women,

Female ex-GOP here. When it’s how your entire worldview is informed from birth, “brain damaged” maybe isn’t quite as accurate as “brainwashed”.

And yet, there are still Republican women. How brain damaged do you have to be to be part of an organization/movement that doesn’t view you as a fully realized human?

I’ll be interested to see the other articles. It seems like most things I read about sex work are similar to this one: high end escort work. My (admittedly uneducated) understanding is that high end escorts make up a small percentage of sex workers.

As an actual current sex worker, I'm excited (and terrified) to read the comments on these upcoming articles.
