There are a lot of real things to get offended about, I hate it when people stoke outrage by purposefully misreading statements. Especially on a webpage founded by Henry Louis Gates Jr. for much higher purposes than dragging down a black man for the clicks.

“Twitter was ablaze with criticism, noting that him likening a Black woman to an animal is just his latest problematic comment in a string of offenses.”

Although mostly forgotten now, there was time in the early 00's when Sophia Coppola was scorching hot. Her first two movies—The Virgin Suicides and Lost in Translation—were fantastic and fresh. She was also married to Spike Jonze, whose first two movies—Being John Malkovich and Adaptation—were maybe even better IMO…

I never said it was typical. I did say, however, that if both parties are mature about it and neither party did something egregiously wrong, there should be no reason why they can’t remain friends after if they so choose.

An ex attended my wedding as a mutual friend to both of us and two others sent us wedding gifts since they no longer lived in the same state. I 100% agree! Unless someone is being extremely deceptive in how they portray themselves or you just have absolutely shit taste in people, there is no reason why a relationship…

I’m friends with a few of my ex’s. We are better as friends than we were dating and they all are wonderful mom’s and I’m happy for them. Some of my friends think this is strange but I can move on when I know things weren’t meant to be. 

It’s almost as if.. they’re two emotionally mature people who have no ill will against each other and share mutual respect. You know, like.. adults should act.. instead of dramatic 12 year olds (either on one side or both if they’re extremely petty).

Is the 2023 Spanfeller mandate for Jezebel’s writers to constatly broadcast how immature and toxic they are in their personal lives?

I had 3 exes at my wedding last summer, the 4th wasn’t able to make it due to travel constraints.  Those are my bros!  The romance didn’t pan out, but there’s reasons these peeps are in my life.

“That’s never going to be a problem. We were actually together at the time when we made the movie, and aside from that, we had mad respect for each other.”

I was thinking it may be Pugh’s level of maturity, which is why her relationship with a much older man lasted as long as it did.  It’s almost a cliche that an older person will claim their much younger SO is “mature beyond their years” but it may very well be the case here. It was just a relationship that ran it’s…

I’m friends with most of my exes with the exception of ONE extremely abusive relationship soooo...

I just find it so bizarre how perplexing some people find it when you remain friends with your ex. 

I have this rapport more or less with all my exes, save for one or two who I just lost touch with (and one who really just was a bad person at the time of our relationship). I don’t go out of my way to talk to them, but I also don’t dread bumping into them and do things like exchange memes every now and then, etc. It’s…

“I can’t relate to how mess-free Florence Pugh is with her ex.”

My mom can never understand how people can be friends with their exes either, but my mother is maladjusted and full of rage.

I don’t let my 9 year old smoke in bed any more

typos are totally fine just like... man it is super demoralizing to have my work, even grunt work like this, compared to text generation stuff. 

hey quick question: what the fuck are you talking about

it’s a typo, please don’t do this lmao
