I’m 36; I’m just one year away from being the oldest group of millennials according to the AP’s definition of the generation. I am 100% on board with body positivity for everyone who is not me. I internalised too much from my youth and young adulthood, and I hate myself for the way I look (among other things I hate

I would like to point out that for a lot of women, body acceptance and body positivity are *still* new concepts. I’m an older millenial and during my teen years and 20s (my formative years), the tiny waist, mid-drift baring styles were all the rage (think Britney Spears/Christina Aguilera). Teen Vogue and Cosmo were

Yep, and 1998 was twenty fucking years ago, not 10. What the fuck is that bullshit.

Not exactly on topic, but I feel like 2013 (and 2008, for what it’s worth) WAS yesterday, and I’m just now realizing that was 5 and 10 years ago and is this what middle age is like?

Dude nods along and agrees with the last person he spoke to. He has the attention span of a gnat and zero interest in anything or anyone who is not himself.

One thing is for certain: we all lost.

Trump’s put more thought into his own pending pardon than in Alice Johnson’s.

I think people are trying the “Tell the public he’s awesome and hope he sees it on TV before he makes up his mind” approach. Then, feel free to be honest at a later date when people remember you met 45.

Anyone who has ever left a meeting with 45 has evidenced surety that it went according to their lights. Only to be radically disappointed, later.

But according to new reports, the meeting did not go well, it wasn’t great, and Trump understood nothing.

The reason Trump said it’s a very good letter (despite having not read it) is because it came in a big envelope. That’s it. Look at his face. He’s delighted at having received such a *big* letter. The content is irrelevant. Like a 3 year old at Christmas. I wouldn’t be surprised if he sent a reply that is 2 feet by 3

I have never seen this show but I just would like to say that if I died and the photo they chose to put by my casket was a selfie of me in a beanie in a car I would be LIIIIIIVID.

I’m a gay dad, but as far as I’m concerned - anyone who is absolutely sure without a doubt in their mind that they want children is insane. It’s stressful and expensive and fraught with potential tragedy.

So psyched for this book. I loved How Should A Person Be? and so much of it mirrored my life. Now I am 33, married, and the central question of my life is whether or not to have a baby. Heti seems to be writing exactly the books that I need at just the right time — not that I expect to find an answer in them, only

Libertarianism is astrology for men.

Man... imagine how differently the DC cinematic universe could have unfolded if he had gotten his Randian ubermensch fix by making this movie 5 years ago, instead of through... you know... getting everything about Superman completely wrong.

You think the guy that made Sucker Punch, a movie 14 year-old boy’s masturbation fantasy about a girl in an insane asylum that dreams herself into a brothel with a violent pimp, violent customers and a violent cook to dream herself into several ridiculous (albeit a bit cool sometimes) scenarios fighting in super

You’d think he’d have noticed the fact all his films are getting progressively worse by now...

Someone on twitter said a Fountainhead movie helmed by Zack Snyder is precisely the adaptation this novel deserves and I agree.
