For me, boundaries are an important consideration. I can be a good friend, but I’m not a psychotherapist. When someone starts exhibiting behavior that seems self-destructive, or especially if they’re being disrespectful of my feelings, I remember my limitations. I may not suffer from a mental illness, but that doesn’t…

I’m so glad you’re stanning Megan Mullally! She is a phenomenally unique and talented actress/comedian/singer who understandably became overshadowed by the outrageous character of Karen Walker. I don’t know if it’s a conscious effort but lately it appears that the real Megan is coming more and more into focus.

I coulda sworn Naomi was married or in a serious LTR with a French parfumier or some such action...?

JLo Diet Challenge Day 11: Rage & Resentment

Honestly, if I eliminated all carbs and sugar for 10 days I’d have difficulty finding the energy to stand up, period.

A Star is Born (2018)

I’m so pleased you’ve covered YOU, as it’s the first show on Netflix that I confess to bingeing. OK, not from beginning to end (it’s really not my style) but one night I watched 3 episodes in a row because shouting at the screen didn’t sufficiently influence the characters’ behavior and I just had to see what…

I like the flannel idea! But does flannel “go” with the white bootie trend? Because that’s where I’m headed unless someone throws up a brick wall in front of my careening fashion train.

An inability to cry on demand is probably the main reason that I as yet have not won an Oscar. And why I’ve never done any acting.

Thanks for the tip. I have only heard her cover of Todd Rundgren’s Can We Still Be Friends? and it moved me unexpectedly.

I feel myself going back and forth between competing perspectives whenever this subject comes up. My thoughts typically go like this:

I agree. An actor’s obsession with bodybuilding is seriously detrimental to any characterization other than superhero.

I like your style!

It amazes me the lengths to which people will go to avoid loving – and being loved by – someone of the same sex. What if it’s just what you happen to need? Is it really all that awful? A lifetime of torment, falsehood and subterfuge just to avoid love.

Every time I pop into my candy green Volkswagen Bubble I pump up this jam by muh girl Mandy Moore.

Hmmmm....

Thank you for responding. My comment got me banned from Jezebel within about 15 minutes. I doubt you will even get this message. It seems that any resistance to mob-think is eradicated from the discussion.

I’m the same way. No kids, but I totally get why 18 years of abstinence is probably a great idea.

I suspect that Singer may be guilty of a crime. But I don’t understand how we could expect Malek, an actor who has no direct experience of any crimes perpetrated by Singer, no access to evidence of criminal behavior, and with no conviction by a court of law, to be responsible for bringing Singer to justice.

Have you seen both? I don’t have the stomach for both and only want to watch the more... objective(?) one. Can you recommend?
