Maya calling her mom in the middle of the night to pick her up from a sleepover gone bad caused me to unexpectedly break out in SOBS from some long-held-back memories. It’s eerie how well the show captures certain actual middle-school experiences. Definitely remember a phase of being convinced I had magical powers,…

50 percent of the books published featured predominantly white characters;

OrangeTheory was the only thing I could consistently stick with while hating nearly all other forms of exercise. Something about the combination of recording of metrics, competing only with yourself while still being in a group environment, and the constant switching up of activities really hit the sweet spot for me.

Nine MORE hours and STILL not corrected. Quick and surefire way to make your site seem less legit, a significant typo right there in a headline.

When I first heard about “nap dresses” I was so confused - mainly, because something called a nap dress should be, like, a wearable snuggie. Not this creepy Virgin Suicides nightgown.

It works out great for him, though. Gives off the idea that “even if you look like me, you can get hot girls just through seduction skills that I will teach you for a mere few hundred dollars!” And then, elsewhere, he goes and admits that many of them are paid models and actresses.

You wouldn’t truly understand how horrid lanternflies are until you start seeing dead ones in the corners of your building’s elevator every day, or one routinely flies at your face while you’re walking down the street or sitting outside, or you see a tree with knobbly bark and realize it’s actually just COVERED IN…

Yup, I too remember the confusion and incredulity I felt when I discovered they were actually two different people all along.

“I know I can’t speak for anyone else’s experience besides my own“ = “I’m going to completely discount and bulldoze over any experiences that aren’t mine.”

Remember when it made top headline news when a celebrity had COVID, because it was such a scary unfamiliar thing that we could hardly believe even somebody rich and famous could get it? Ah, those were the days.

“My friend and I did what anyone else would do in the same situation”

I actually love it. Before all this, just “reuniting” over Zoom would seem lazy - it’s in person or don’t even bother. But now that that’s pretty much the only way people can interact, it’s suddenly totally okay. More Lizzie McGuire table reads, please!

A level of 40, which only corrects to 60 with supplemental oxygen, REQUIRES intubation to survive. And her parents DECLINED it. That’s the most horrifying part of this already-all-around-horrifying story for me. When she finally got intubated 3 days later, the damage had already been done, and she died the next day.…

Alexis Mateo did a HILARIOUS impression of him on Rupaul’s Drag Race All Stars just last week. It was filmed months and months ago so it’s total serendipity that this doc is coming out now!

On the Zoom reunion episode, they were “back together and better than ever” despite being broken up for 8 months in the meantime. They even did a very hokey “spur of the moment” marriage proposal where he just *happened* to have a ring pop lying around. Guess when they didn’t become the hottest influencer couple after…

Did nobody tell them that literally any movie with a proper sex scene (meaning, not just a fadeaway as the characters are taking their clothes off or whatever) ends up on porn sites?

She called Wallis “cocky.” The Onion is the one who made the “cunt” joke, then deleted it.

Literally the exact same thing happened to me studying abroad in France! I saw it on the menu and was like, “Ooh, martinis are cheap here. I am going to be fancy and order one.” “Hm, I know I haven’t had that many proper martinis before but this...does not seem accurate.”

He sure does clear up a lot of things in this interview that previously made him look bad, but now essentially exonerate him! Interesting that he waited >10 years to clarify all of this information. It’s almost as if...he’s just twisting the truth to whatever better suits him.

I think you’re taking the “Hollywood” angle a little too literally. It’s about LGBTQ pop culture.
