Does no one in America know the meaning of the word “treason”? 

This story has been screwing with my mind since it came out, because I could have sworn it was already the plot of a horror movie, but I couldn’t remember any specific film with that plot. So this cover image seriously messed me up, because I thought it was actually Natalia, but I was like “No, that’s it! That’s IT! I…

Reminds me of this doc I watched about this french guy, Frederic Bourdin, who posed as missing people, typically teens. In the documentary, The Imposter, he posed as a missing child from Texas and moved in with the family. There is suspicion that someone in the family actually murdered the missing child. It’s bananas. 

Wait, is this a thing? I once had a 15-year-old boy in my summer school class who made me feel uneasy for some reason I couldn’t put my finger on, and he turned out to be a 22-year-old Ukrainian national who’d overstayed his visa and was paying some family to “adopt” him. He’s now in prison on a bunch of charges.

“Missing and Exploited Children” aren’t a lobbying firm flush with cash. 

Nice is ultrabland as far as descriptors go, but god bless a celebrity mother for refraining from further comment on her daughter’s dating life.

omg that Nick Cave story. Which isn’t really a Nick Cave story, but totally is at the same time. I once saw Nick Cave change his shirt in the middle of a vintage shop in Royal Oak, Michigan. That was fun.

I don’t understand why people who want a hypoallergenic dog don’t just get a goddamn standard poodle - they are smarter, easier to train, and lighter weight than anything crossed with a lab. 

You would probably manage well with a standard poodle. It all has to do with dander. Doodles are quite adorable though!

Yep, cigarette smokers have had far more respect for those around them than vapers for at least the last 20 years (that’s how long I’ve had friends/acquaintances that are smokers - can’t comment on how it was prior to that.)

Aside from the obvious hideousness of these shoes (which I realize some people will like specifically because of how ridiculously ugly they are), kitten heels are the dumbest of all possible shoes. They’re not high enough to actually make sense for an aesthetic appeal (kitten heels aren’t going to make anyone’s legs…

They'll look great when a flying house from Kansas lands on you.

I don’t like censorship so I agree with you. I was actually excited to hear Joaquin Phoenix was plying the role but after seeing the trailer and reviews I definitely get incel vibes, once it’s on streaming I’ll give it a try.

Honestly, the reaction to the Vape “panic” is a legitimate and reasonable reaction - something is shown to be correlated to making a bunch of people sick, and places decide to stop selling it until more information is known. That is a very sane reaction.

When I saw these out and about, I just kinda glanced at the package and thought “oh, Halloween repackaged Skittles, cool.” I flipped it over, read the flavors and put it back. I–a HUGE fan of special Halloween candy, who LOVES to check out the gimmicks–COMPLETELY missed the gimmick.

...weird dude from Silicon Valley...

It’s just too perfect that the weird dude from Silicon Valley would pull this shit. I hope she leaves him and takes him for everything he’s worth.

Yeah these were really, really bad. Which was the point, obviously. But, wow, bad.

I had an experience recently, where I was doing this sort of thing with a bored kid in a DSW checkout line while his parent was on the phone.
The most adorable kid, and I was making him laugh.

But the parent pulled the kid away. I was a little put out by this, but when I thought about it a little, there’s no parent…
