I did not KNOW that there was a Netfix version!!! I strongly suggest reading Jeanne Kalogridis if you enjoy that kind of thing. Jeremy Irons DOES do an amazing job, but her books allow you to imagine whatever accent you dayum well please!!

he’s such a forever-babe

Things with Jeremy Irons>>>things without Jeremy Irons

I can’t remember who said that quote first but I’ve heard it a few times and it really resonates with me too. I do wonder how much of this has to do with age and awareness. In my younger years, I just assumed bad things wouldn’t happen to me; now, the older I get, the more aware I am of bad things happening to others…

Probably if they’re like most colleges, something like 70-80% of their staff get health insurance through them, but probably only around 10% of students get health insurance through them (incidentally, that 10% is probably the most vulnerable of their students, because usually college kids get health insurance through…

You clearly don’t know much about actual introversion besides the clichés.
The whole point of Cain’s book is that introverts CAN get shit done, just in their own fashion because we’re wired differently. Also, we get some shit done that extroverts can’t ! Extroverts aren’t particularly as effective or as smart as they…

Introvert doesn’t nescessarily mean you are shy and lack confidence.

Introvert does not equal insular, shy and quiet. That’s the whole point. I’m an extreme Introvert. I am confident, can be outgoing when I want to be, and popular at work (I don’t care about being “popular” in social circles.) Granted, it’s taken me awhile to figure out how to get noticed in my career since I’m not…

Introverted doesn’t mean hermit. Or shy. Or lacking confidence.

Gregariousness does not necessarily ‘get shit done’. There are plenty of us introverts getting all the shit done while the extroverts are chit-chattin and shit. We don’t need no stinkin Kaffeeklatsch to get our work done, pal.

Did you guys read the whole Times article? They’re acting like this lady invented introversion. Get your head out of your ass, New York Times Style section. Everyone knows Emily Dickinson invented introversion.

The problem comes when extroverted people berate their children, friends, and acquaintances for being abnormal and inadequate, according to the false standard that extroversion is “normal” and introversion is “antisocial” and diseased....which frequently leads to introverted people growing up to feel inferior and…

This is weird. Literally last night I came across this woman, and realized there was a word for my ‘problem’. So many misunderstandings, mental health issues and relationship difficulties came sharply into focus when I realized that I am an undiagnosed introvert, married to an extreme extrovert. Because I am confident…

I’m not even sure why you wrote an article on this. All we needed was a headline that said “Cheesecake 4 Sale, Click Here”

This is like a very religious Golden Girls.

I feel exactly the same, on every point.

For me, too. The Fall starts seeming a bit too contrived somewhere in Season 2, but Gillian Anderson is so fucking boss that I don’t even care (Dornan is good too).

Happy Valley #1 always and forever AMEN.

Clearly, Rick Santorum would be president if rude lady reporters weren't so gosh darn tricky. Bitches, always scheming.
