In a way, this is the perfect real-world illustration of something Midge Maisel would do: Totally self-centred, showy celebration for her accolades while not thinking about what a pain in the ass it is for everyone else.
I admit the show has its merits, but in Season 2, I found the entire family’s self-important…

Bless this quest into a young music lover’s heart.

Alright, so the “his dreadlocks are actually a wig” rumour and that he dated all the popular 90 women in the span of a single year aside ...

In 1995, Duritz dated Jennifer Aniston.He has also dated Courteney Cox, Monica Potter, Samantha Mathis, and Winona Ryder.

That was Dawn, California chill girl and proto environmentalist!

Mary Anne was shy, but she was the one with the boyfriend right?

That gave me so much hope as a kid.

Not to any parents of daughters I know. Boys are labelled as more difficult from the start. There have been tons of experiments where researchers have dressed infants in girly clothes or boyish clothes and tracked how people respond to them. Babies in boy clothes are told they’re angry when their crying, babies in…

Old people be so mad in these comments lol 

A friend of mine is raising two boys and her and her husband are doing such a great job raising them to be conscientious thoughtful people and then they go over to Grandma's and oh, look WATER GUNS.

Even before I had a kid, I’m constantly surprised at how people are so eager to ascribe gendered expectations to otherwise normal behavior in babies and children.

Thanks for sharing your experience. It puts into words what I experience teaching college-aged students. The boys/men (18-22 year-olds are “adults” but their behavior suggests otherwise) get fucking MAD if you provide any sort of constructive criticism or suggestions for improvement, even though that is the point of…

I am a mom of two boys too - they’re 11 and 7. I feel like the main issues I’ve dealt with are how they’re treated by others, especially once they start school. I feel like there are different ways that they are treated - teachers sometimes seem to be a bit more patient with the girls than the boys. I have a few…

Pretty much. At work I’ve noticed the ‘boymom’ shirts means ‘I’m just going to let my kid do whatever he wants because well, he’s a boy! Shrug! What you gonna do?!’

This series was one of the first things I went crazy over.  Like, wait for the monthly release,  beg parents to buy, crazy. For a while, getting a new BSC book was my reward for good grades,  chores, etc, I tell my parents they got off easy with me.  Funny that the diverse nature of them never stuck out to me,  I took…

I also get cringey when I see a fellow #boymom (gross) taking her 5 year old son out for dinner and is like “Date night with Aiden!” Um, it’s not a date night. It’s you and your son out to dinner. WTF. 

I’m a mom of a six month old boy, but I’m not a #boymom. Not only do I not have time to read mommy blogs or get into mom culture, but it seems very limiting for mothers to build their outward identity around motherhood. I mean, yeah, I spend like 80% of my time when not working or sleeping with my baby, but at least I…

Toby Huss is the shit. Y'all are talking about the Wiz, and nobody beats the Wiz. 

I’ll be in the minority, but I actually liked the Sam/Justine stuff as it in a lot of ways felt like a logical contiuation of Sam’s story. As he begins to struggle with his mortality, he is able to see his daughter become something better he ever was. The way he handled the heart attack was actually for me one of the…

As much as I love Justine, her scenes with Sam in this episode did mostly seem redundant.
