It is baffling to me that I immediately knew the origin of this GIF. Why does my brain retain information like “one of the extras from the ‘Friday’ song”?????

That doll grows up to be Jared Kushner.

NOOOOOOOOOPE. Nope. Nope.

The old heir/spare paradigm matters when we talk about who’s “revolutionizing the monarchy.” Harry seems eager to find a more comfortable and meaningful way to play the spare for the next 50 or 60 years. I wish him well: Andrew (as mentioned in the article) has been a disaster.

I don’t think Harry and Meghan are claiming to do anything but their perception by the media has been pushing that narrative. Harry married outside of his race and outside of British wealth, which of course was always going to be labeled as the most modern thing a royal could do (which truly is huge for them.) But…

All of these people are simply finding their own ways to leverage the monarchy to achieve their own goals, whatever they may be. Which is probably what any of us would do if we had intentionally put ourselves in a similar position, as they have, but it doesn’t change the fact that they are basically doing business.

Meanwhile, the royal-friendly British press has been pumping out countless articles in the last 6 months about an Andrew & Fergie remarriage, in order to inundate the public with a fabricated late-life romance - or re-romance, as it were - to offset the actual news of Andrew’s behavio[u]r.

The British press will never get over the facts that 1) Meghan is black and 2) She didn’t (and doesn’t) need the Royals to make her famous. Anyone marrying into the royal family is supposed to be so incredibly thankful for the chance to be associated with them that they give their entire future to The Country. They’re…

I expect her court cases will drag on for years and years. There is a lot to unravel. I also expect she will never change. She will aggressively manipulate as long as she possibly can, much like Billy McFarland, who tried new angles to defraud people after the Fyre Festival implosion and after he was already under…

Guess what? Kids adopted internationally very quickly lose the first language if there is no one to speak it with. Also, kids in institutions have very poor language skills to begin with because they get limited education/intellectual stimulation and have adults talking TO them, not WITH them. These kids usually…

But they adopted her in an emergency adoption, who knows how long the previous adoptive or biological parents had her. She may have been from Ukraine but brought to the US before she could take on Ukrainian as her first language.

Indeed. The daily mail is a shitrag of the lowest order, totally sexist and concerned with thigh gap and side boob. They hate anyone foreign especially people of colour, and have led the field bitching about Meghan on that basis. So they aren't a beacon of truth in other issues either. 

Her face seems fine, but...did it affect her ability to speak? It sounds like she just got over having her jaw wired shut, but perhaps that’s just her natural voice, with which I am wholly unfamiliar. Do face lifts change your voice because you lose natural articulation in the mouth? It’s a world of mysteries to me!

The way her face was promoted is... weird.  I like that Sharon is open and honest about what she’s doing. I can’t help but feel judgmental though and irked that people feel they need this. IDK, I feel uncomfortable that cosmetic surgery is so popular.

Looks better than Simon Cowell’s new face...almost sure someone melted the Madame Tussauds wax dummy.

He forgets that even if he weren’t, you know, Woody Allen, he still wouldn’t be the poster boy for #MeToo. Doing what you’re supposed to do (not abusing your employees, paying them fairly) doesn’t (or shouldn’t) warrant special recognition.

I’m pretty sure Mariel Hemingway would beg to differ. Didn’t he invite her to go to Paris alone with him when she was still a teenager?

Seriously, and just about all of his movies are some variations on this theme. I was always squicked out by his movies for that reason. Then he started dating Soon Yi and I was like “oh yeah, he writes about creepy pedos because he is one”. 

Woody Allen over here taking a card out of the Stephen King writing playbook by just straight up writing a story where he’s the protagonist. Is the main character a director, too?
