Well, no. That’s just an excuse not to try harder. But also, not all things are equally bad, and not all things are equally necessary. Shiny piece of overpriced carbon that is responsible for child slavery is not the same as, say, driving 300 miles to visit your grandmother in the hospital.

Are we sure that isn’t Snowden?

To be fair, I’ve talked to a whole lot of cops in NY, and generally speaking they are not interested in busting someone for smoking pot. It’s hours out of their life for paperwork and court appearances and they get razzed by other cops for making a bullshit small time arrest. So unless there’s a reason (and mind you…

Nah, not meant to make you dislike her at all, but rather 1. make you aware of the greatest political ad of all time and 2. let you see that Carly is batshit insane with questionable judgement. She was also incredibly shitty at her job and has terrible policies. None of that is significant compared the majesty of the…

Same rules as almost anything: Make eye contact when you talk and smile a lot. Don’t be a dick. Say thank you.

Huckabee’s wife and Ivanka Trump: not dead.

It’s so fucking infuriating. It’s like they can’t even conceive of the idea that a great woman can be more than some sort of domestic paragon. Like ‘Best Mom Ever’ is the most significant achievement a woman could possibly have.

Not unlike Austen, Heyer can start slow while you get to know the characters. Cotillion is super-confusing and maybe the tiniest bit boring at the beginning, but it totally picks up!

There are a few basic kinds of Heyer romances - There’s ones with shy/inappropriate girls coming into their own, there’s ones with young or irresponsible men coming into their own, and then there are ones with strong women taking charge like bosses. They’re all good, and I like that she focuses on the man’s emotional…

They actually have a special button on the register that automatically replaces any meat with beans. They’re very vegetarian-friendly.

No, the long-lost Big Beef Taco Supreme was everything.

You know that Colorado used to be part of Mexico, right?

The BBC version is almost perfect. Jennifer Ehle was as good a Lizzy as Firth was Darcy, but Jane was so woefully miscast it’s hard to watch sometimes.

Where did she fit the lipgloss & eyeshadow? That dress has no pockets. I call shenanigans!

Actually, Mariano Rivera trying to rape someone with a baseball bat sounds a little off to me as well.

Who do you report those pictures to? Why not just tell your friends that posting pictures isn’t a good idea (in your opinion, which they are free to disregard)? And most of all, why?

Notice how the time slot is already double-booked, but that wasn’t a problem.

On vacation last week I re-read April Lady and Frederica and it was goooood. The Grand Sophy is obviously the best, though!

Isn’t this the entire allure of being Christian? That it’s never too late?
