Having read the book, I feel that the whole “spark joy” thing overshadowed the actual message of her book and the root of her method, which is just to be more conscious of what you own. Her storage methods center around arranging things so that you can see and access everything without having to move anything around…

The spark joy thing is definitely not well understood. In her books it’s explained a lot better but also I think it’s going to mean something slightly different from person to person.

There’s one unintended, ironic effect of Marie Kondo’s show and it has nothing to do with getting rid of shit: I now understand why 70% of married women initiate divorces.

So so so enjoyable. 

For reference:

I 100% agree with Tim Gunn and want to go to Red Lobster with him and Andre.  Speaking of, where’s Andre? (One of the finest few moments in reality tv history)

So I’ve been a bit peeved that *so much* focus among “progressives” has been on free college. Yes, student debt is stifling (ask me about my remaining 27k balance) and yes, it’s an issue that touches young voters.... but college is still a privilege that largely benefits the white middle/upper class. While it’s a…

She is the best. My phone alarm clock plays “Juice” to wake me up in the morning. 6:15 a.m. is LIT.

KK is already exercising her privilege to get law degree.

She was all like “Do my hair toss, check my nails”, get out the flute. Carry on and slay, Lizzo.

No, but really, she’s making me happy right now when nothing else does.

I LOVE HER MORE THAN LIIIIIIIIFE*

All patriotic songs at sports games should be You’re a Grand Old Flag. It is the only fun patriotic song and I don’t get enough chances to sing it.

There is no wealth without exploitation. Period. 

“That’s Why Darkies Were Born, Someone had to pick the cotton,/ Someone had to pick the corn,/ Someone had to slave and be able to sing,/ That’s why darkies were born.”

Only if real-life hubby Patton Oswalt is cast as Mossimo and the whole thing is played totally straight-faced. Maybe get Parker Posey to play Olivia Jade. I would watch the shit out of that.

It is especially gross considering she has nothing to contribute to the conversation about mental health treatment. She just wanted to grab some attention for herself. 

Fox News would’ve devoted at least 3 hours to questioning his faith. “President Obama curses on Good Friday, another sign he’s a secret Muslim?”

If he hadn’t run against Ted Cruz, Beto O’Rourke would still just be another DLC back bencher in Congress, and that’s fine. But people needed to be excited about Cruz’s opponent, and thus the full weight and wealth and spotlight of Hollywood and NY liberals was invested in his Senate race. Because an empty vessel was…

I know this is said all the time, and this is far from the most egregious example, but can you imagine if Obama would have said “bullshit” in a comment about a DOJ investigation involving him? Or one of the litany of Congressional Benghazi investigations? The right would have absolutely lost their minds hand wringing…
