I would watch this show.

MIND. BLOWN.

Never deliver an ultimatum that you wouldn't/couldn't follow through on. If you are prepared to walk, then sure, consider having that conversation. But you absolutely need to be prepared to act on your ultimatum. Otherwise, just ask for a raise/title bump/whatever perk it is that you're looking for and be prepared to…

This is worth underscoring and highlighting and putting in all caps. People within your current company ARE part of your professional network - they have connections you need, and will be connections you need, within or outside of that company. Never burn a bridge if you can help it. Keep all pathways open.

As the kids say: ^^^THIS^^^.

I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.

I met her once, at a private party a few years ago. She was still drop-dead gorgeous and just super, super nice. (also: SO TALL. Holy shit.)

It's not scary (former Disney exec; have seen it). Cate Blanchett is the villian, and she's more fierce than frightening (it's Anna-Wintour-as-evil-stepmom: everyone is in more danger of weapons-grade shade than anything else.) There is, of course, the standard parental loss, etc - but no dragons or sea-witches or…

The Walking Dead was on. Enough said.

Your understanding of unicorn science is impressive. Degree in Unicorn Behavioral Studies? (I personally wanted to major in Sparkleology, but everyone said I wouldn't be able to build a career out of it.)

Oh my god. You win the Caternet.

This comment? Made me laugh right our loud. STOP PUMPKIN SHAMING.

Ah, most of my stories will forever remain private, but I will say this: I once peed in a bush in Haiti with Countess Luann.

This deserves all the stars.

YES. ALL THE STARS TO THIS LIST.

I love everything about this. Everything.

Ugh. That article is horrifying - but it casts a somewhat different light on this CL posting, which now seems more fully like coded sex slave solicitation than 'awkward douchecanoe wants free sex LOL'. UGH UGH UGH.

A number of folks have mentioned castor oil, and a number of folks have *warned* about castor oil. Heed the warnings. It works, but it works HARD. Stick with the long walks, the sex, the spicy food, the random eggplant parmigiana recipes and (my mother's recommendation, no joke) dancing under the light of the moon.

I am also a fan of Adultosaur's fandom (esp of Tay), through which I live vicariously. And I've wondered, is it weird to be a fan of a fan? But then you came along and voiced it, and I feel validated. Thank you.

Our best couple friends are such in large part because they are our best parent friends: our kids adore each other and we adore each other (no, really, it's like a mass mutual crush) and we are very open about how we have LOCKED THAT SHIT DOWN because HOLY SHIT WE ARE EACH OTHER'S PARENT-FRIEND LOBSTERS. It's super…
