Lin-Manuel Miranda, an earnest musical man who started writing this thing 20 years ago, had what feels like enough time to make whatever adjustments were required, from the story to the casting, to be more inclusive? Like... if you are already doing the work to bring this unwieldy fantasia to life, then you might as…

That’s one of the problems with being kind of tall but not crazy tall and not skinny but also straddling the line between straight and plus sizes depending on how much elastic is in the damn thing and having massive tits to boot: Buying clothes is a gauntlet.

I actually think she does, because I think that Ben is the ultimate fixer upper and something about J-Lo makes me believe that in three years that man will have that thing removed at her bidding!!

Conflict averse people hate-tweet the most—they can drop a bomb online without the human element that a face-to face insult demands. It’s a haven for cowards. I’d venture a guess that’s a big draw of a place like Twitter, you can be all bark and that’s enough.

One of my oldest and dearest friends has terminal cancer and will be gone by the fall.

It has been jacked up for over a week, but there are more important things to worry about.  

Three school days left until the end of the year! My across the hall neighbor teacher put it nicely: “I didn’t sign up to live through history, but I’m glad I work with all of you.” We all managed to muddle through, and hopefully next year we will get a full 8:00-3:00 school day with sports and school dances and all…

Libby? Noooo. It’s so ‘we summer in the Hamptons, darling’. I like Lili ♡

If they’re going to name the kid after the queen, they should’ve gone with Betty. Archie and Betty, a natural pairing.

Because she’s still their grandmother and they love her. Acknowledging someone’s faults so you don’t repeat them doesn’t mean that you stop loving them.

They’ve been pretty clear from the beginning that their beef isn’t with the Queen. It’s with the British press, the people in the palace working behind the scenes and…

THIS!!! My God, I can’t believe keyboard ‘experts’ who don’t encounter bears very often are dismissing this, I love her, what she did was insane and sooo fierce, she is a feckin queen!

It’s exhausting how there is nothing girls/women can do without some dude trying to explain why what they did was not that impressive actually.

“Relatively small bear” is a mama bear with her cubs, and is relatively large enough to seriously fuck up a human.

this is “not a casual relationship,” despite the fact it’s been what... a few weeks?

Ooof this is cringy.

“...somehow still-on variety show”

We can agree it is about the kids. 100%, no debate there.

She also tried (and has another motion in another court) to remove the judge they agreed to.  Seems like things were fine until she started to think it might not go her way (which, let’s be honest, she wants 100% custody and him shut out, but she was hoping to get primary with limited visitation).  

I don’t see it that way. It sounds like the judge deferred to the expertise of child welfare professionals who spent time with the children and firsthand knowledge of family members. If they were worried about future abuse I’m sure they would have shared their concerns with the judge. No one is asking the victims to…

Yes, the judge could do that. But maybe the judge realizes this is all a shitshow and Ange has done everything she can to sever his parental role.
