You missed something: you are a delusional 58-year-old man with bad knees.

“the Reverend Kendall Jenner X Jr.” Dead.

As a fellow creative, and woman, I agree there are more of us out there scrapping for the few jobs and negotiating often gets you a quick tour to the exit or an abrupt end to the teleconference. I don’t know if it’s different for men, but it’s been my experience as well.

Absolutely true. We don’t have kids, tried, failed. Best friends had a kid 7 years ago. Not much has changed. We alternate houses for dinner on weekends instead of hitting restaurants or clubs, sometimes just the 5 of us, sometimes with other friends, some with kids and some without. I love their kid, and he looks at…

The 1988 Ford Taurus Wagon. It replaced the Merkur Xr4ti. We were living together, both 24. HE bought it by himself. Brought it home.

Pretty sure he’s gotten much of his information on this from watching the Love Boat. Isaac the bartender did know every black passenger ever on the boat.

If the dog had to be lifted and lowered over the fence to get into your dad’s yard, how did it get out?

The internet killed what used to keep print publications afloat — advertisers. Advertisers left in droves in the mid-2000s and it keeps going. One of the best margins for papers used to be local classifieds. Craig’s List, for one, took all that revenue away. Subscriptions never really paid the bills during that era.…

You’re doing the Lord’s work with that pass blocking, you’re a good friend.

Not just the eyeball squint, note the hunched-down-into-the-collar-with-forward-neck-tilt that is the favored (favoured) posture of all who grew up in snow and wind. My neck’s till fucked up from growing up on Lake Ontario.

It is our job, speaking as a white woman. The problem I’ve been coming up against is where. Speaking generally, most of the white women I know lack a common physical meeting point.
We have fallen away from repressive churches, so we lack what had historically been a gathering point. Work isn’t a great place to try to…

Anya, there’s a very real argument to be made that women playing organized sports was, in the last century, a political statement in and of itself. By being there, they were subverting social and gender norms. It was a quieter defiance and demonstration, but it was there. These women, who I applaud, are standing on…

I know it’s Gucci, but it looks like a Burger King uniform for the bicentennial.

I love this passage — it’s never going to be on the memes and pull quotes — but it speaks to the real and raw radical measures that still have to be taken.

I like knowing I have an ally!

As much fun as I can!

But how would she do against some random male rec league player? That’s always what I want to know when a women’s basketball post comes up.

When I was a senior in HS (went on to play D1, but only one who did), girls’ varsity played the boys’ freshman team and killed them. They had height, but nothing else. Two of the guys were faster, but not with the ball. We ran them to fatigue. We moved the ball. Confused them with defense switches they got caught out…

The Honeymooners was inspired by a radio show called “The Bickersons.” The things you learn when you get to take “The History of Television” as required college course.

They’re only marketed as chocolate by LeVian, which also offers vanilla diamonds (white) and other food and flavor related branding — there rose gold is, I think, called strawberry. I’ve worked in and around fine jewelry print and digital media for a couple decades.
