Blegh. I’ve been dreading this since it was announced what feels like a million years ago. Admittedly it’s been a while since I’ve read the books but they’re so much more ambitious and intelligent and devastating than your average dystopian YA stuff. It grapples with colonialism/misogyny/masculinity/ecological

I wish I could have seen the gay romp between Holland and Jonas before Daisy lands on this sperm planet!

This combines two of my favorite things, ass-kicking Amazon babes and not leaving my house.

So, is this a Mulan deal where you have to pay $40 on top of the subscription?

No surprise. All these films are financed by bank loans. Studios never pay out of pocket and the interest on everything shot before the pandemic is starting to add up. No studio, not even Disney, can afford to sit on these films. Warner Brothers and HBO are owned by the same parent company and HBO Max needs some

Strong list. I’d only take exception to “52. Essential Workers.” Too often, that translates to, “expendable minority who has to perform risky work so white people can stay safe at home.”

very fine people?

I’ve had to pump the brakes on some big purchases that turned out to be more expensive than their mid-sized counterparts, whip out the old calculator and do the math right in the store.

People Magazine has just announced their 2020 Sexiest Man Alive and it’s none other than Creed and Black Panther star Michael B. Jordan.

It’s a Bunker Bitch tax.

I’m sure he told this joke all the time, but I got to go to a few of his foundation’s benefit dinners years ago, and when it was a casino night kind of deal, and he mentioned that his poker tell was that if he was shaking, he was bluffing.

This is exactly right.

Just to throw some love Teen Wolf’s way too. Back in the old days, when you had to rent physical VHS cassettes, my sister and I would always pick Teen Wolf from the selection of a couple dozen movies that our local gas station/convenience store had. I can’t tell whether I love it ironically or sincerely, but does it

I have this incredible adoration for Michael J. Fox. When I was in my teens and early 20's, I fell in love with his performance in you-know-which-movies, so much that I actually used to love his barely-passable comedies like Secret of My Success and For Love or Money (hell, I still love The Frighteners, but it’s

MJF has nothing to prove to anyone. He did his thing like a boss and that’s how he’ll be remembered.

Somebody tell Wisconsin to not take a check!

Grease a backing tray with oil or butter, and sprinkle it with sugar (preferably demerara but castor sugar is fine too!).

Sorry, we’re gonna throw down about pumpkin pie and sugar cookies. The day after Thanksgiving, Pie For Breakfast Day, is sacred on my calendar, and my husband’s mom makes fantastic sugar cookies. Utterly delicious.

Pumpkin pie is probably the one dessert exported from the US that I actually really like?!?! I have it with just a tiny bit of cream, it’s lovely.
