Yeah this episode (Thanksgiving) and the one about the other NYers story were my favorite. Is it weird that I love this show most when its not about Dev? Its the same with Unbreakable KimmySmidt, I watch 90% for Tituss.

Was just down in Myrtle Beach two weeks ago showing my old stomping grounds to some friends from Chicago. Ate at places overlooking the beach, the inlet, and the river, had tons of fresh seafood, sweet tea every day, and honest-to-God hush puppies. I do miss it.

Working mom with a 6 mo old and 9 and 11 yr old bonus kids. We buy a lot of things on amazon - including toilet paper and clothing. My husband and I actually had to go to the mall to buy clothing for our youngest. We left the mall in a daze. We stopped only to buy things at Target (which is a go-to) and then…

People who drink ginger ale with fake flavoring are ... well, they already feel bad so I won’t be harsh. I favor Blenheim Ginger-Ale.

Yeah, many of these articles note that this is really an issue of department stores failing, not necessarily malls themselves.

In college I took a class called History of Consumerism and it was essentially the history of shopping. I think the internet is to malls what the Sears catalog is to general stores. When the Sears catalog first came out, it opened a whole world of items to people who were previously limited to what was for sale in the…

To me the failure of these malls has a lot more to do with the failures of sub-urbanization of the 50's and 60's then it does with online sales. (See Robert Moses) The simple fact is most of these malls were built for a population who loved cars, didn’t care to much about pollution, and didn’t mind driving 20-30…

“Women Bullshit artists, in general, get a lot of pushback, especially if you’re successful and attractive pretentious and condescending.”

Why is she so desperate to be seen as just a normal person? You aren’t a normal person. You spend $600 on a t-shirt; I buy my t-shirts for $2 at Forever 21.

She has a point. Whenever a man tells me to steam my vagina I spend all day sitting on the kettle. But when she does I mock her.

“Women, in general, get a lot of pushback, especially if you’re successful and attractive.”

I’d say that a slightly different interpretation could also be valid : uptalk not necessarily functioning as a demand for attention or agreement, but as a signal that says “I’m seeking your empathy and understanding of what I’m talking about, and I’m crediting you with the ability and/or willingness to give it.”…

Speaking as a current breast cancer patient, once it is in your bones, a person must do what they feel is right, because there is no cure. They only have a limited amount of time and conventional treatment is likely to simply make you die miserable while buying you some time..in which to vomit, be depressed and in…

My SO tried to claim that he was shouldering fully half of all of the chores, so I said, “If that’s the case, let’s trade. If they are truly split equally, you shouldn’t care either way”. Easiest argument I ever won.

I just commented separately, but according to the Olivia Newton John Cancer Centre (http://www.onjcancercentre.org/) which is near me, what they mean when they say ‘wellness’ is actually mostly evidence-based non-medical therapy such as ‘Acupuncture, Art Therapy, Brain Tumour Support Service, Clinical Psychology…

exactly. sometimes, modern medicine can’t save you (especially with metastatic cancers).

To be honest, what she can receive now is simply palliative as by definition, she has stage IV breast cancer.

Not sure how much difference it makes once you have bone mets.

Olivia, please use more actual medical treatment and less alternative medicine horseshit.

“If you don’t live near a bodega...” Cute. Those little black packets are rubber-banded to every bouquet of flowers in every grocery store, drug store, gas station, roadside stand, flower shop, and farmer’s market... ever. I’ve never purchased a bouquet that didn’t come with one.
