Well, I guess a quarantine starter marriage is somewhat healthier than drug abuse and an eating disorder. Though not necessarily cheaper, between the ring you know she paid for and Max’s payout in the inevitable divorce.

Women who say hubby probably also use baby talk to talk to their husbands, and yummy to describe food. And they refer to themselves as ‘mommy’ or ‘wifey’. Gag. 

And they were incompetent man-child boyfriends before they married them, but they still married them.

Esther, don’t listen to the haters. I think you had the elements of a really satisfying breakfast, or stoner snack. But it’s your execution and the quality of ingredients that is off.

The people who bought the book and made it a NYT bestseller?

Well, the book it’s based on is a NYT bestseller so I imagine if there’s an audience for the book there might be one for the series too?

Then don’t watch it?

We’ve been ‘having conversations’ about feminism and women’s equality for over a century now. And sure, things have improved, somewhat, but change is slow. And there’s no way to accelerate it because not even a revolution can undo centuries - millennia - of ingrained ways of thinking that are at the core of our…

This. She was the most geriatric high-school student in the history of television. 

I don’t know but if I were on that committee, the last person I’d nominate for it is Corey Feldman. Yes, he was a victim but he’s also a huge attention-seeking pain in the ass who’s made a vulgar sideshow out of his abuse.

Being a victim doesn’t excuse becoming a perpetrator. Also, Feldman has made a cottage industry out of being a victim of abuse, asking for money to reveal names of abusers, and then never actually doing it. It’s very hard to respect someone like that, regardless of their past abuse. Even less so when they are…

“If you have a young man in your relationship and now he’s not happy—or if you have other people that are in the relationship and then they’re happy and you come outside and try to do work and you’re working with other individuals and you’re not happy, I just need y’all to find that happy,”

Thank you!

Facebook is a reflection of its users, and society as a whole. It’s far more representative than Instagram or other platforms. The problem isn’t Facebook per se, it’s that there are that many people out there who think this way. They might not be the loudest on Twitter and the media, but they’re there, in droves, and…

Call it a dumpster fire if you want but I think it gives a good glimpse of how the ‘average’, non-woke, non-major city dweller thinks - i.e. ‘most people’, even if that’s not the ‘most people’ you interact with on a daily basis, since we all tend to surround ourselves with like-minded folks. 

If it makes you feel better, remember that Facebook is crawling with older and conservative and religious people. Also, Facebook users aren’t all American or even Western, there are a lot of people from developing countries that are socially a lot more conservative than the West, and more religious. There are also a…

Never mind. Just read on The Root that witnesses aren’t cooperating with the police. So basically the Jez piece left out all the relevant information...

I don’t understand where the misogyny is re: Megan Thee Stallion. She was shot by someone she knows, and police arrested the perpetrator. How is she unprotected? Unless she needs protecting from her own friends?
