I agree that Breslin is a clunky casting choice. Not to mention the terrible chemistry (even worse than Grey/Swayze) with her costar. But, neither were faking being non/bad dancers.

Um. Jennifer Grey was not a dancer either. Not even a little.

Okay, I get it Netflix, but Justice Smith is very handsome (and very young). More importantly, he was very good in The Get Down. I’m hoping this will get him a few more opportunities to be cast as a lead in the future so that I can watch his cute, talented butt in some more stuff.

I was reading about the Mitchelle Blair case, or “freezer mom”, the other day. She was sentence to life in prison for the premeditated murder of two of her four children, 13-year-old daughter and 9-year-old son and putting them in the freezer. The details of this case are absolutely horrifying.

“I’m The One” is my jam. I saw Chance in concert two weeks ago and I can’t get it out of my head. Help me.

Holy Kate Hudson! She really is her mother’s daughter.

Eat chia seeds, Bobby.

I also have challenges analyzing feminist-y pop culture with my dude partner. He watches most everything and is thoughtful about most things, but has a big stupid ignorant blindspot when it comes to...idk women? Anyway, I always find solace in the fact that I know that I am right.

Thanks, Beth. I really enjoy reading your articles.

BED is such a bitch. The National Eating Disorder Association has a helpline (800) 931-2237. They also have options for an online chat on their contact page (https://www.nationaleatingdisorders.org/help-support/contact-helpline). They can guide you towards resources. Also, google OA meetings in your area. It is a good…

You’re right that many (maybe most) people can deal with these things just fine. But I know that my disordered and obsessive thoughts and behaviors around food and weight started with a diet.

One should never feel bad about homemade gnocchi. Ever.

I think the people who needed it got the message. But, I am giggling at the idea of someone saying they are “in recovery” for erectile dysfunction.

What up, ED sufferers/recoverers! Eat regular meals based on the plan set by your nutritionist/therapist/support team. Remember that is this is the internet, not your doctor’s office.

That is EXACTLY what I would think. “This is it. It’s going to be bad. My sister/mother/father is going to find my dead body and I just hope they aren’t too traumatized.”

When I was in Sweden a few years ago, I was having a conversation with an older lady. She was an American expat now living in Stockholm and referred to herself as a “first waver”. I work in a field that provides services to transfolks (mostly transwomen). When we started discussing my job, she became very hostile,…
