Oh, I don’t believe for one-hot-second that this was a moral decision. This was a straight up cash decision. Boycotting of advertisers fundamentally undermines their business model and therefore is incompatible with keeping the show on the air.

I’m 100% on board with cancelling the show, but I just don’t understand why ABC had to go and give her a platform to begin with. Her Twitter has been filled with hate for a long time and by ABC giving Barr her sitcom back, it emboldened her to be more vitriolic. And before everyone responds to me, money cannot the…

My family had a large scale robbery and a lot of jewelry ended up in various pawn shops (and then sold and melted down to never be seen again—insert sobbing here)

I’m 5’3” with a barely B cup and I’d look like a walking circus tent. Unless you’re 6 foot a-million, and a size 00, these dresses feel like a hard pass.

My husband and I had our engagement broken up twice at a different shore point because we were on the beach too late. My poor husband was so flustered he could barely get the proposal out.

Ok but how does someone in real life wear a dress that voluminous and not look pregnant or like you are wearing a circus tent?

I’m 90% sure that it’s on tv every morning on CW so she’ll be able to keep those checks coming.

Well, you do have to give him credit for really committing to the charade.

Superstore is very clever.

Mazel tov to all women today. Now women can officially be just as terrible as men with zero consequences! What a world we live in!

Most of my shows have been seriously disappointing me this season and Jane was my saving grace. I am irrationally sad now.

I too was a kid and not old enough to realize how young she was or how fucked up it was for the whole world to know about your dress. The fact she’s able to have something resembling a normal life is a real testament to how strong she must be.

The only (slight) reason I feel even a insy-weensy bit bad for Melania is that she signed up to by a trophy wife to a sleazy New York business man. She did not sign up for politics.

Is this like Beetlejuice, you say it 3 times to will it into being? Three denials = firing?

I read part of the book when it came out, it felt like the whole point was just to induce guilt instead of educate, so I stopped reading. And I say this as a fan of Foer’s other work.

I can only speak for myself and the dentists I know, but if someone brings me a recent set of xrays from a previous dentist, I have no problem using those instead of taking my own. If someone comes in as a new patient, doesn’t bring xrays and doesn’t want me to take them, I can’t diagnose much of anything. By the…

Yes, some of it is age based and does make sense, but something about the tone of the article put me on edge. It had a bit of a ‘can’t you see the obvious’ attitude which is fine for somethings (mammograms at 76 without prior history) but maybe not others. For example, I’m a dentist, and she criticized dental…

Also a really fucking expensive, unhealthy habit.

I read her article on Longform (?) and it basically said she was giving up on any kind of ‘routine’ medical testing which really bothered me. I know that you can make an argument that Americans test more than other countries do, and while it’s worth evaluating what/why you’re testing for, there’s a lot to be gained…

I was trying so hard to give Mika the benefit of the doubt after Trump went after her, but she is such a fucking spoiled child all grown up. Her interview on Katie Couric’s podcast made me feel like taking a shower.
