I cannot understand people actually liking Mayim. Her giggling is like nails on a chalkboard. It’s so distracting. My boyfriend and I notice it each and every time. When Tim was on this week, she even started saying his name as a giggle before he even said the answer! One of the answers was “sap” as in from a tree and…

Particularly because the show has made an concerted effort to steer the designers toward more diverse projects and challenges that REFLECT the realities of the fashion world. So while they still do high fashion and editorial challenges, they’re also asked to do things that could be ready to wear right now, with some…

This grinds my gears!

As a Black woman, I can’t count how many prints I’ve seen fabulously worn by other curvy or yes, fat black women. Prints and bright colors? Yes, all of that. At church, at the family reunion, parties, or to work. But now, in a time where plus size fashion is at its height, this designer who is also a black woman and…

I get that it might be a shift in perspective to design for “plus-size” models. Perhaps it’s not what they’re used to doing with their eyes closed. But Project Runway is supposed to stretch designers and see what they can do outside of their comfort zone. Further, the show has been pretty intentional it seems in…

This storyline doesn’t feel like a comment on something that’s actually happening but feels invented out of whole cloth by someone who would consider this an unforgivable offense.

No. The takeaway here is that telling him exactly how to do something is work in and of itself, the work she didn’t want to have to do for once. A lot of men don’t apply the same type of care and consideration to every day tasks as women which leaves the women in their lives to take on that burden. Her hubby basically…

Just here to say that I hate when finance apps do this. I had a really great system set up with Google Wallet Card that helped my mom who doesn’t have access to a regular bank account, then they went and discontinued it.

Trademarks serve to identify and differentiate companies and their goods/services. It’s not necessarily about “brands” really but about having something to sell and needing to protect companies and consumers from confusion as to the source of those goods/services. A copyright is for original, creative works fixed in a…

While I’m very sympathetic to creators, especially people who leverage digital media to start movements, share jokes, coin phrases/words, etc that contribute to the cultural richness and zeitgeist, it’s clear that trademark is not the path to legitimize or recognize the originator.

Shiplap. Sliding barn doors. AND FARMHOUSE SINKS. Every freaking house needs a farmhouse sink, apparently. I had no idea they were so popular! Or is that just in Waco? IDK.

She wound up discussing the video anyway but as she did, footage of Jeb Bush and Chris Christie rallies in New Hampshire appeared in a box, an indication that the network’s priorities were shifting.

Cardi B is everything and thank you for this.

Thanks for this. I have been struggling to keep up with Nashville because so many crying, raging, woe is me white folks is bad for my general disposition. I needed you to tear the bandaid and spare me from having to actually watch the last couple of episodes.
This show is getting to be TOO much even for me, a…

Changed a bit but not enough. I can’t just walk outside of my home in BedStuy and see green or yellow taxis whizzing by and just stick out my hand for a hail. Almost never. I can count on my fingers how many times that’s happened. I almost totally rely on Uber to get back and forth to places that are either…

It's not too weird to need three phones, I suppose. Lots of people have two. But why carry ALL THREE in your hand already full with keys and groceries AT THE SAME TIME? She's got a huge purse on her shoulder. I doubt someone's calling on your iPhone 6+, iPhone6, and whatever that other thing is at once.

Usually on right there with you on this whole "look how ka-ray-zee these sorority girls are" thing because yes, it is kind of mean girl and IDC, sometimes that's funny... especially when the things we're laughing at are not examples of sororities being service-oriented, junior professional networks (which they claim…

Judging from the author's description of how she braided her hair overnight, her hairstyle at the opera was just intentional and indeed "controlled". It was styled for her hair texture.

I saw a sign to that effect on a local park in Brooklyn and I paused. I even took a pic of it because I hadn't even thought of that before — that we'd need to ban 'unaccompanied adults' from playground parks for children's safety.

I want this to be my secret passcode to some underground speakeasy or my new band name.
