Fake garlands are stupid expensive. Real garlands are a house down payment for a non-fha loan.

Whatever the job, it’s incredibly well-paid, judging by the houses/apartments these people can afford.

A fellow PR person cosigns this. Or, like, just DON’T go on Howard Stern in the first place. 

Let’s not forget when he accepted his Oscar for “Argo”, he announced to the world how much work his marriage was.

Saying “I can’t leave because of my kids, but I’m not happy” and then talking about how what he did was to down a bottle of scotch was his solution.. It’s not a good thing to say. His kids, his not leaving because of his kids, should never be uttered as the reason he turned to alcohol. He turned to alcohol because he…

PR person here: “I was unhappy, and I didn’t know why. I had great kids and a great wife and a great career. It was inconceivable to me that I was unhappy given all I had. I fell into a crisis of self-doubt, self-destruction and alcohol. I’ve learned since that THIS is what depression and addiction feel like. Since…

To me it isn’t as much that he’s blaming his marriage and kids as he is saying he was depressed and unhappy and using alcohol as a way to avoid making difficult decisions regarding his marriage. He was depressed and self-medicated with alcohol which is not terribly uncommon. I know it’s popular to dog on Affleck but I…

There’s no such thing as good candy corn.  Also, what kind of a monster opens a bag that way?

I LOVED the book I Know What You Did Last Summer when I was in Middle school. I read everything Lois Duncan wrote and I agree that part of what worked was that she does focus on consequences and how things play out, which was a big part of the draw.

I’m not sure how this works in other countries, but I had an elementary school teacher who had anger management issues and was verbally abusive. He also pushed me into a brick wall (intentional) and I hit the base of my skull hard (unintentional). It was the 1980s so the school did nothing aside from a write up here…

One of my favorite recent paranormal/horror novels was T. Kingfisher’s The Hollow Places, where a young woman finds a door to a deeply unsettling netherworld behind a crumbling wall in a museum. It had a very Twilight Zoney vibe.

The Once and Future Witches by Alix E. Harrow has been my best witch book in awhile. Loved it.  I feels like Practical Magic felt the first time I read it.

Cats...

To be fair to Lizzie Bennet, she lived in a totally different time where women’s literal survival depended on attracting and locking down the wealthiest mate possible. She did not have the option of earning her own living, or, regardless of money, living an independent life without marriage. Under those circumstances,…

It sounds utterly exhausting to view every interaction with other humans as combat or competition. I’m glad this article hammered home the points about vulnerability and community.

And then what? What happens after you “win” this stupid game? A relationship built on deception, wherein the guy that you’re dating doesn’t really know the real you... and is attracted to this inauthentic version of you? How long do you keep that up? What are you really “winning” at here?

“When a man has found his dream girl, he will ditch his old ways and become the man that she expects to have,” says one post.

The first and most important rule of RV ownership is this:

Sorry, it’s he has six that we know of. He’s an Old Etonian Tory, so there’s probably a good two or three more that have yet to realise why they have shit blond hair and a huge jowl.
