While I think he has a right to privacy and we are all guilty of building a flawed parasocial expectation of him, dude made his personal life a big part of his standup and his persona. That's the risk you take when you make that artistic decision.

People who get famous at a young age tend to turn out pretty weird. Feels like Britney had that leveraged against her via the conservatorship, which was unfortunate.

I think some people from the #FreeBritney movement are going to have to prepare to be disappointed in her. Not to say that she can’t and shouldn’t be in charge of her own life, just to say that we all make mistakes or the occasional choice that we believe is right but looks bizarre to the outside world. It feels like…

I’m the opposite. Everything is awful and sometimes some low-stakes celebrity gossip can be a nice palate cleanser after reading about the new and exciting ways everything’s just burning down around us.

I’d say that schools also need to get on board with this. I remember that missing a day of school meant missing a ton of lessons and new information, then there’s homework to make up, then you’ve got to learn the new stuff to do that homework, and it just compounds on itself.  It’s one thing as an adult to say “let’s…

I don’t know how people get surprised when there’s a Famous People Infidelity story, even when it’s a juicy one to enjoy some gossip over.  Everything about the entertainment business makes it easy for these folks to cheat once they’re out of sight of reporters and fans - the long times spent away from home working on…

For actual canned soup, my favorite is Campbell's Bean with Bacon. It's one of the only canned soups that makes the over-saltiness work. My favorite store-bought soup is Trader Joe's lentil with ancient grains. Better than any lentil soup I have made and takes additions well.

Laughing my ass off at “eliminating all rapists from the streets of Texas.” How about starting with the rape kit backlog that was at 6,108 kits as of February of this year in Texas?

But it’s “poor people food” so these ladies find it inherently gross.

Wash the tea down with some water and then brush your teeth afterwards, if you’re drinking a high-tannin variety.

“Nobody needs to see my teeth.”

Yeah, I’m in the same camp. I think she might be just doing herself and not necessarily trying an act. 

Goddamn this is uncomfortable that they’re already turning the intervention into bits. 

Searching through the cushions of my world-wide couch in hopes of some change!

Not only did the union not try to do ANYTHING to stop it, but every single time it was the company up against employees they chose to kiss the company’s ass. All they were was glorified HR that we had to pay every week.

I was going to comment, then I read some more comments.
Nah, not touching this one.

“[T]here’s no ethical consumption under capitalism.”

I have not watched South Park since 2000 and recognize Laserface as a fellow prolific commenter around here I’ve probably starred a couple times and probably quibbled with a couple times but... sorry man I don’t get the reference.

I finally started watching Loki last week, belatedly, and was about two minutes in, when my wife informed me dude has a two year old daughter he refuses to see. I know we (the public) don’t know, and don’t have a right to, all the details but what the fuck.

Hope they win their fight. I’m wishing grocery stores were unionized pretty bad at the moment. We got pretty screwed pretty bad by covid last year and there’s not really anyone looking out for us.

On the one hand we were one of the only businesses still open so we had job stability, which was nothing to sneeze at last…
