Arianna Grande comes to mind, but don't know anything about her.... Easter gives me impression of Latino (could be a diversion). My question: does it matter? It's obviously not anyone American because her writing style is eloquent and coherent - sorry Miley. She appeals for help in a manner that reflects her humility…

I'm not saying she's guilty, but she didn't exactly help her case with the whole "I'm just a naive American student who thinks doing cartwheels and saying weird shit to police is what ANYONE would have done." No, not really. If it was my roommate, I'd be sobbing to learn of her murder, even if I didn't like her all…

Selfish of me...but I LOVE older Russian Literature precisely because of descriptions of beauty and process from a time of such formality. And Russians have complex faces...Can I request someone describe Russia then and now? Especially given Communism, it would be interesting to know what beauty standards were…

"Having to bartend for Scott Disick on the way home from rehab..." Good one Jia!

Have you bothered to read anything beyond a high school level or Reddit about the Founding Fathers, or is this your revolutionary college thesis?

Can you take a step back and see the gross stereotypes you are pervading about an entire area of our country with millions of people in it? Has life and bullying been so hard on you that you feel compelled to make black and white character judgements on an entire class of people (fraternities, southerners)? This is…

Wow. Is this how a professional writer interacts with her audience one on one? Is this for real?

Why?! Why do you think anything happened to this woman that isn't completely made up? Because she's a woman? Gender alone is enough to use as evidence that "something happened" to her?

As someone who has been grayed out, called a troll and at worst a rape-sympathizer, I appreciate your candor. The readers of this site are so quick to assume that accusation translates to evidence. I have three boys, one of which is going to college and I fear that they'll be accused of something based on the morally…

But he is an Erudite with terminal cancer who loves me for FINALLY standing up to my parents, who make my life miserable through constant doting and top rate medical care! He gets what it's like to be Special...

Red lobsters are that color from being cooked...so, dead.

You have "Me" generation parents too? God they were horrible....and people wonder why GenX came out so cynical. I see the spoiled wonderment of my children when they don't get to play "the" board game they wanted and I have to hold my tongue from saying, "Grandma and grandpa never played a single game with me I my…

Reminds me of my first husband....why they do this: control. Diplo seems like a talented but horribly insecure person (yeah, famous people are just like us!). But why do men have to put down, shame and rob women of successes (especially) when they're intimately involved with the rise? Because they can, and more…

At Emma's sex party: Travolta and Cruise, Miley and Gilligan's Island Professor, Chris Martin (solo, or with any Hemsworth), and any cat with Taylor Swift, but only if she arrives in Downton downstairs evening maid outfit - no leg. Oh, and the Queen! (Sorry Bruce, too confusing for everyone at this time).

That was so beautiful!! You should post that on the ABT site....I remember when I grew at DD chest at 15 out of nowhere and had to quit, and sobbed for days (years). Your feet are truly ruined, but just imagine all that work and pain to then fly (literall) to Prokofiev, and you have a spiritual event that transcends…

I LOVE ballet, ex-ballerina and still her feet and bulging tendons made my stomach turn...

This has been very enlightening, especially for the Internet (which I admittedly cast low hope for intelligent discourse!). The label legitimizes and acts as a social shield, as well as a way for people to learn. While I wish it didn't have to be this way, perhaps I'm naive about the degree to which people have become…

Well for one thing, whenever people did things outside the 'norm,' which these days encompasses a pretty damn big bell curve, it was kind of not my business, or anyone else's. Loving two men - or more! - does not need some type of analysis or academic basis. It's emotional, subjective and hey - it's your life. Haters…

Just so I have this straight:

This was long and a bit indulgent, in the sense that polyamorous relationships are represented across literature (and biblically) for thousands of years. Anna Karinina as an example of a wonderful piece of literature on this topic. Millennials are a bit obsessed with labels in sexuality, forcing old ladies like me to…
