I work in downtown LA and my office looks right at the Cecil - and those old DTLA hotels are creepy and sad enough without the, you know, murdery history. It seems so highly unlikely to me that her death was an accident, especially considering the area. ETA: the AHS murder house isn’t too far away, either!

Those donuts are weird but California Donuts is fantastic, though. It’s in Koreatown like a block away from me and there’s a donut with an entire snickers bar inside.

Good thing I’m only imagining, instead of coming up with solutions like you. Speaking of, what do you think Sea World should do here? As a someone with experience with real world conservation, what is your opinion? You seem like the right person to answer my initial questions.

Keep going with what, though? If they end the shows and end breeding, as Sarah J said, they’d be “phased out,” which seems like the way to go. There has to be some sort of switch to a sanctuary...I imagine that can only happen over time and with government support.

Yeah, I’m confused by this. If Sea World is shut down, where will the current animals go? Would Sea World become a private sanctuary, funded by...? I’m a million percent for ending live shows, breeding programs, and even for release if possible - but it would be heartbreaking for these animals to be euthanized or…

I *totally* read that wrong, like you were saying she’s 25. Ha, whoops.

Huh, Shiri Appleby looks like an ice cream.

Wait! I thought Kaitlyn was 29, though...

I just found a real bathroom drawer among the fake bathroom drawers. Game-changer!

Not sure about hunting, but it’s a phrase U.S. government agencies use when referring to animals that will be killed as a result of construction, farming, etc. Like in EPA proposals. I think it’s supposed to sound kinder there, too.

I know it’s my fault for clicking (what’s wrong with me?!), but seriously why all the dead animal posts? WHY? Is it because idiots like me click in horror and therefore page views? Fuck.

The wildly inaccurate costuming is part of the fun!

Well, “Outstanding Variety Series” is pretty depressing - I know, I know, a lady can’t have a late-night show :/

Seriously. This thread is so chock full of internalized body issues thinly veiled by health concern or semantics.

Man, thank you for writing this. People use the word “humanism” as if it wasn’t already a thing dating back thousands of years (or, more technically a few hundred)...

Scott Foley is so foxy it’s painful. How can Jennifer Garner and Olivia Pope have such terrible taste in men?

It’s probably all arbitrary luck, then. I live in LA and that’s ALL I see - XS, S, 0, 2, 4... Where are you shopping? Same with thrift stores. If you’re tiny, there’s awesome designer shit galore in my experience (Beverly Grove, Santa Monica, Los Feliz). I’m like a 12/14 and can’t find nice things anywhere.

Ugh, I hate the answer to this question.

Tsarnaev was just 19 when this happened. That’s very young. And there’s a level of detachment in a crime like this - drop off a bag with a bomb and let the cards fall as they may. It’s disgusting, but it’s not as depraved as a child molester who chops up a small child face-to-face after various tortures. Those guys…

I’m short, borderline plus and really curvy and they’re the only jeans that suit my body type :/
