God I miss the Toast every damn day.

The recipe looks delicious, but the bright color of the tomato hollandaise reminds me of a dish my Dad made all the time that grossed out me and my sister when we were kids. He would add Campbell’s condensed Tomato Soup to scrambled eggs. We called it Tomato Barf.

IIRC The Gift of Fear suggests basically all super-famous people have multiple stalkers, and the public just rarely hears about them because it’s considered bad security practice to give them the attention.

MORE LOVE FOR YOU (But with tears, obvs....#sigh) Nicole’s still on twitter though, and some cool discourse can be had there.

Women have a right to have different opinions about the best way to handle sexual assault, both for themselves and as a collective movement. This idea that unless we’re all exactly on board for every detail is oppressive. She has every right to have a respectfully differing opinion on the movement and how it relates

But she’s also speaking from her position of power. She’s saying she understands that, because she is famous, she has the power to crush him. She elects not to use that power. In the context of the quote she is speaking solely about herself (my interpretation is she’s using the casual version of “they,” not to

She’s not talking about others or speaking for them. She’s only talking about herself and what’s right for her. Her body, her experience, her choice.

She’s ageless.

I know, I have to go to the wayback machine every time I want to post a copy of “As a father of daughters”! Come baaack, Toast!

Ugh. I love them both. I just saw John Mulaney on tour and he is just such a delight.

Holy shit. I figured he was racist (he doesn’t even go for “I have a minority friend!” when he clearly would have if he had one), but that’s worse that I’d expect.

Jesus, Fallon kept interrupting and breaking up their flow, it would have been so much better if he just sat back and let Cardi and Mulaney interact. This is where good interview skills is crucial: not just knowing what to ask, but also when NOT TO TALK FALLON JESUS. This is where Graham Norton excels.

Now playing

Fallon did just have a great segment with Cardi B last week–oh wait, that was because his other guest did most of the interviewing. 

“But when I see op-eds, such as the one recently in the New York Times that states in the headline that the Metropolitan Museum of Art should not have appointed “yet another white, male director,” I recoil. That’s just another way of saying that white and male is a disqualification.”

I can’t view the comments at the WaPo (probably for the best), but holy crap was his article the most tone-deaf “REVERSE RACISM/SEXISM!” thing I’ve seen in a while. He included the “Mothers and sisters” thing, the “I have lady friends!” thing, the “Man, racism probably sucked, but it’s better now” thing, the “Guys, I

So they’re going to move it, not destroy it, because they want to “remember the darker moments in history.” Okay, fine - but is there going to be anything on or near the statue that discusses this? Is there going to be anything telling the stories of his victims? Will their voices be represented at all? If we’re going

This is a great story. When I was 10 or so I was very conscious of the fact that my 16-year-old brother (who was very cool and adult) was allowed to drink coffee and I was not. I bugged my parents again and again and then finally my dad had a clever idea. He took me to Starbucks and had them pour me a shot of espresso

My lame superpower is that I pretty much like all food items and pretty much every type of cuisine I’ve ever had.

This is the dark side to medicine. We owe a great deal of modern medical knowledge to sadistic experiments from the 1800's, through ww2, and even into more modern history. It would be irresponsible to ignore it, but reprehensible to forget it.

How is life not bleak for you
