Exactly. We’re talking about Aunt Becky here-- she doesn’t have the kind of money it took the Kushners to get Jared into Harvard. 

Exactly. One of my sisters died, and I frequently leave her out of the sibling count in casual conversation. It makes me feel weird to do it, but usually I just don’t want to get into it with people. 

Yeah, that explains why Batman and Iron Man have been such massive failures...

Zach Efron dating a “Bro” feels a little on the nose, no? 

Well this hits entirely too close to home. My uncle died last week of cancer, very likely related to his time in Vietnam (the VA has of course, denied the family’s claim). I don’t know what his final lucid words were, but he was a political junkie and avid Trump-hater, so I know he would have liked to see the Mueller…

I’d really like to see him go for the Senate again in 2020 too. He’s laid a lot of good groundwork in the state, and I think he could do it. Also, we have a lot of good options for President— what we’re lacking is Democrats in Texas who could flip a Senate seat there.

I hate the bride-branding nonsense. When I had my wedding stuff, I told my friends in no uncertain terms that there would be none of that. I didn’t want a sash or any kind of weird extra attention on me because I knew that would just make me super uncomfortable.

I thought we agreed on this.

I used to catch her show Gaycation on Vice and it was great. There was one episode where she went to Iowa in 2015 and confronted Ted Cruz on his anti-LGBTQ bullshit and it was beautiful. She’s a treasure. 

Or in the case of my sister-in-law, they’re those things, and also exceedingly stupid.

My brother-in-law has a Japanese character on his wrist. I don’t even know what it was supposed to mean, let alone actually says, because when asked now he just says it translates to: “I made stupid decisions when I was 18.”

They’re taking their time with the wedding planning because now they have to find a destination wedding location that does have an extradition agreement with France so Chris Brown can come. 

NXIVM is totally a cult, but the connection to Gillibrand is a pretty big leap. Her dad lobbied for them for four months (14 years ago), got sued when he left (a longstanding silencing tactic by this group) and paid back all the money he made.

They have a history supporting conversion therapy, and its first pastor (grandfather of one of the current pastors) resigned after a seven year old boy accused him of molestation.

Growing up, my dog lost her shit every week while my parents watched Murphy Brown, because she thought the ding of the elevator in the newsroom was our doorbell. My current dogs lose their shit on the regular— the 13 year old is mostly deaf now, which has cut down on the spontaneous barking at every little outside…

This looks good, but anyone else getting a Scar vibe from the still at the top?

Oh, Jeffrey. 

This entire administration is living proof that we get the face we deserve. 

That’s a really good description. It ranks high for me, but not because I think it’s one of the best MCU movies, but because it’s one I return to again and again. FX used to show it a lot, and it was one of those movies that no matter how far along the movie is, or what I’m doing, I will sit down and watch it until…

I mean, at least she doesn’t have the same center parted straight extensions look as all the other women in these pictures. Don’t get me wrong, it’s still horrible, but at least it’s a different kind of horrible.
