It’s worth noting that Kistler was a teenager when Martins first pursued her. Martins was in his late 30s. My heart goes out to Darci who was already dealing with the fallout from their daughter’s heroin addiction and multiple arrests.

I honestly thought he’d already resigned. Interesting that he’s being permitted to “retire”.

TRUE STORY: I work in Rock Center but NOT for NBC and a colleague of mine had a broken leg. One day she was struggling down the street on crutches past 30 Rock and Hoda walked out to get in her black car. Hoda did NOT know my colleague, but because Hoda is a dream, she gave my colleague her black car and told it to…

When Hoda first started at NBC and Today, she was a serious journalist. I always felt that putting her in that later hour with the shrieking Kathy Lee was beneath her. Initially, Hoda was kind of reserved compared to the other harpey, but soon enough they were both drinking glasses of wine at 10 AM and it was SO LOUD.

Back in the olden days before cell phones and interwebs you could go out with someone, even more than once, and because things were slower, communication less instant and constant, getting ghosted was less painful. Answering machines were wonky, roommates flaky with messages, numbers juxtaposed, rejection was just…

How lucky the baby of Celina Powell is. She seems nice.

I’m so glad we won our independence from you guys. Beans for breakfast... *sigh*

The saving grace is that Andy Warhol would have loved this story.

My main concern is Han’s lone gunslinger archetype kind of fundamentally eschews backstory. He won his ship gambling? Cool! That’s what kind of guy he is. I don’t actually need to see it. Nor do I need to see the gold dice Luke grabbed in LAst Jedi that he’ll invariably hang in the cockpit.

You need to just take the L and move on.

I’m pretty sure she’s being sarcastic. She’s a sarcastic kind of gal

You do realize that these rules aren’t put in place to actually stop any kind of harassment or anything, right? They’re put in place so that employees have a harder time suing the company if they do get harassed.

I think she looks modern and chic whereas Kate looks like a Christmas bear. Well played, Meghan!

Your mother has fabulous taste.

I’m a little confused about why there isn’t anything about the editor, writer, or photographer in this article.

I am done with calling out the actresses on this shit. Call out the magazine, the conglomerate who owns the magazine, etc. This is not her fault. We’re playing games with women who want to help because they arent 100% perfect meanwhile people are getting away with rampant discrimination, assault etc.

the gentlest of reminders

I am so tired. I feel like I’ve been shouting into the void for years that a lot of these cultural touchstones for cool, hip youth (Vice, American Apparel, etc) are the same old toxic and misogynistic tropes wrapped up in a new aesthetic. I’m tired of women’s bodies being commodified and used to reinforce the money…
