Before gaslighting there was “The Emperor’s New Clothes” though I think both concepts are applicable.

Starring your comment to raise awareness. I have never gotten out of The Gray nor have I ever understood why it even exists. Presumably once the head dude said something about how it promotes good conversation but you can converse with people whose comments you can’t read. idk.

As a recent recipient of a PhD: ugh.

Which is weird, because the original Rosanne seemed to be more on the liberal side. I mean, she led a union-based walkout at the plant, dealt with the issue of a single mom, had a friend who was a lesbian, etc. I’m not saying all those issues makes someone a progressive, but she choose to include them in her show.…

What are you doing, John Goodman? :(

YES. It’s so frustrating. And in my case, the owner is the biggest perpetrator of the drama so it’s this example that the others follow. It blows my mind.

Idris Elba is always the correct answer. :)

Pet thread! I posted these in Pie Pie’s thread but I wanted to share the floof!

So last week I went on a long rant about some shit going down at work... and then I went and posted it in the wrong place. I felt very silly about it all. But getting it out was therapeutic nonetheless.

Aww thank you :) At 50 years of age I am finally feeling a bit of confidence in myself, experimenting with makeup, getting actual hair styles versus just cuts, even mani-pedis :) It’s been fun!

I recently moved to a new city and I’ve been spending most of my free time settling in to my apartment, shopping for stuff for the apartment, or watching TV on the couch with the dog. Going out just hasn’t been a priority. So I made the decision today that I would head to a local dive bar and have dinner there. I…

Good evening, Jezzies! We’re currently freezing our asses off in Maine, got to a balmy 3 degrees today. Good stuff.

You can just say one of Trump’s friends. I don’t think they monitor this site very much. Should be safe.

It’s a mix of Louis XVI and 30s/40s modern. Very Syrie Maugham in a way.

Exclusive co-op?

Totally the parents are allowing co-dependent behavior on both sides.

My parents lived near that building 50 years ago and my mom was OBSESSED with trying to spot her. Then one day, my mom was pushing my brother in a baby carriage and Greta Garbo was walking towards them. As she passed my mom, she said, “you’re baby is beautiful”.
