If people don't want to give Perez any clicks, they can read about Caresse Henry on [boyculture.typepad.com]'s blog.

@happyprole: I agree with you. We are all in this together, when we do good and when we do ill. No one is an island, and to live in a society is to live on the knowledge that we are all responsible for each other's happiness. "Am I my brother's keeper?" is just as weaselly and disingenuous a phrase now as it was when…

Going to buy Worn tmrw at the Concordia Co-op Bookshop! Thanks for the tip, Jez! My wife rolls her eyes at my Paris Vogue habit, so $18 for 8 issues looks like great value to her.

@polypam: I fell in love with Frankie when I was in Aus on a working holiday visa. I took my little stack back home to Montreal, it makes me sad that I am unlikely to find it here, and I can't really justify paying for an Intl subscription.

@forherwealth: The "transition" issues of Jane were hilarious - did you get them? One of them had a grumpy editorial note on the "letters" page essentially admitting that they danced to the tune of their advertisers. Another one also had a snarky comment embedded in it, about having to sell out in order to survive. I…

@Her Grace: Nerdfighter!: Yes. What if she was involving her sister at the behest of her pimp? If a pimp was involved, he is getting away free and clear.

@Betty Bea: The 15 year old was also being prostituted; the story is repeated twice in this column. The first version mentions this fact, the second does not.

@Her Grace: Nerdfighter!: This story appears twice in this paragraph; in the first iteration it is mentioned that the 15 year old was also working as a prostitute. She seems more like a collaborating victim than a stone-cold criminal to me; child prostitution is probably just a fact of her life.

@alana: Did they say how he died? Suffering the death of a newborn + "passed away suddenly" + surviving daughter with abandonment issues, reading between the lines, sounds like suicide.

@momentsofabsurdity: I am with you. Why would I want to celebrate my son's life becoming harder than it needs to be? It would feel as if I were throwing a party because he chopped off his own foot.

@fluxus flucker: I am benignly "meh" over Katy and I love Russ, and I am over the MOON about this wedding. I keep having to remind myself to dig up the interview he did with her on his radio show, three years ago or so.

@LadyTudorRose: Not only that, but I bet at least 10 pieces were that clotheshorse Lola's. Pfft. Step it up, girl - there are no Stella McCartney boutiques in Malawi (unless you built some recently)!

@Joy: I'm blushing! Thanks, everyone!

@MissFiFi: Essentially, the people with the most money available for upfront infrastructure would run whatever "stuff" held their interest, and charge you to use it, ie; private fire brigades, members-only/toll highways and roads, etc.

I hated The Notebook, but only because I thought up a better, more tearjerking ending. My ending is this: McAdams never married Gosling, she married that other dude, who truly does love her, and suspects their whole life that she pines for Gosling. Therefore, as her memory fades, he lets her think that she married her…

"If you don't want to have sex with someone, stop sending them the signals. Returning to someone's room with them is such a signal."

@paperymoon: Serious fishnet love is absolutely right. She wears them all. the. time.

@paperymoon: She has a thing for fishnets that Capezio used to make, but doesn't anymore. So she treasures the ones which are left.

@colormeroutine: I am glad I gave you some food for thought. I was a victim of bullying which was teacher/principal sanctioned. I was trying to suss out why they thought bringing Advil to school was expulsion-worthy but throwing rocks at a young queer teen with braces and no fashion sense was a-ok. Imo it's because…

@astraea.trepe: Oh, so true. As I said above, bullying is how teenagers prime themselves for the privileges they will enjoy when they are adults. Otherwise rational/intelligent people will defend bullies and bullying because it feels righteous that those who conform or achieve or have privilege should be able to lord…
