My dog is part terrier so he has to ‘announce’ things he thinks I should know about. Which is every person doing a ‘job’. Mailmen, delivery people, arborists.

Barking hour is totally a thing! I imagine it being something like:
Same, my dog just loves to bark in the yard at passing dogs and since we live on a corner on a popular walk route, it can get rather barkey. So I make a point of not letting her out in the evening walk window, plus it seems there’s a “barking hour” around dusk where the neighborhood dogs like to call to each other.…
Unknowing or not, they should not benefit from their parents’ fraud. They’re still taking a spot from a student who actually earned it. If your parents steal a car and gift it to you, you don’t get to keep it when the theft is discovered.
Way to out yourself, Qanonowitz.
Bernie Sanders supporters acting like assholes? Check. Bernie Sanders supporters being completely irrational about the Clintons? Check. Bernie Sanders supporters pulling the focus to themselves and making discussion about the actual issue nearly impossible? Check. How much do you want to bet at the planning meeting…
If you agree with the protesters about Clinton’s rhetoric contributing to this massacre, can you tell me how? I don’t get it.
I’m 45 and sound a lot like your friend. I have a lot of friends, all over the world. As the single one with no kids, I honestly spend a lot of my free time checking in, nurturing the relationships, whether it’s IMing or calls or just sending cards and gifts. A lot of my friends have kids and spouses and it’s harder…
So happy to see Aidy Bryant get a star turn. She and Cecily Strong are the only reasons I watch SNL. This continues to be one of my favorite things:
You’ll love it. It’s funny and sad and powerful and very, very savvy. If you already know and love her voice, then the book will feel like it was written specifically for you, or at least that’s how I felt.
I first came to Jezebel to follow Lindy West after she left The Stranger (Seattle’s Alt-Weekly). I finally bought a copy of Shrill, I haven’t cracked it yet but I guess I better get going so I can watch this.
You’re speaking with my very own thoughts. I’m 41. Kid. Husband. Work. Small handful of female friends. One who is like family. She’s gold, the sister I never had - we met and became close when I was in my mid-30s which is so rare. A handful of others who are great, but we see each other infrequently and don’t put…
My friend works in college admissions for an exclusive private high school (not involved with all this so far), and I asked her the same thing. The thing is.... the kids have been managed their entire lives so they don’t have any frame of reference for what is normal. The kids are TOLD now you do this, go here, do…
What a thought provoking article. Thanks. My best childhood friend and I both had turbulent teen years. Both ended up living independently around age 17, me to move away from my parents to go to school elsewhere, she because her parents moved away from her leaving her to finish school alone in our hometown. Our…
As a society, it feels like we are constantly impressed with the importance of female friendship - you must have good deep female friends, you must have besties, a squad, a tribe.
“You know what your GPA is. You know what your extracurriculars are. You presumably have looked at the freshman profile every ding dang college and university has posted on their website and know whether you are a candidate.”
A million times this. Assuming this young man’s statement is sincere, he seems like a decent kid whose shitty mom thought “supporting” him meant buying his way into a fancy college, instead of you know, actually supporting him. I work in the world of fancy LA private schools and see this shit all the time—parents who…
According to an article in the Wash. Post by Gabrielle Bluestone - “Jane Buckingham, accused of paying someone to take the ACT for her son and then asking for a copy of the exam to administer to him at home so he would think he’d really taken the test.” I actually feel for this kid with a mother like that.
See, this is my point exactly. The one I just made on another comment.
Considering I had never heard of this girl until yesterday, it’s unbelievable to hear Olivia Jade has this many deals with brands.
