Reading this has made me feel really happy for Jennifer Garner. Now we know why she’s seemed so happy since they split up.

Agree to disagree re: Bourdain. I love him. I think I might have a photo I snapped from No Reservations from literally ten years ago (!!!) where he’s bashing trump. There’s also an ep where he meets with Obama in...Vietnam maybe (?) that is excellent. The episode in Senegal is outstanding. So upset when they took No…

He is snarky, but when a writer from Bust, a small feminist magazine basically crashed his set asking for an interview, he graciously gave them an interview in which he talked about women in the restaurant industry, his favorite women chefs and raising his daughter as a feminist, in lieu of promoting his projects.

The fall of the Affleck brothers and Matt Damon can’t happen fast enough.

No wonder Affleck works so well with Joss Whedon.

I’m still waiting on my apology from Ben Affleck for taking the role of Batman.

I was looking sideways at Ben Affleck because of his brother and the thing with Matt Damon killing the story about HW. I hate the fact my concerns about him were confirmed.

I hope that’s a waterbed because Lea Michele seems excessively thirsty.

I don’t think anything I said was “wrong”, so I’m pretty comfortable saying you’re rude. I still doubt the safety of inmates is a high priority here.

A few more balanced quotes from the NYT article were left out.

To add to this, don’t take the circle line, just do the Staten Island ferry if you want to see that part of ny. Seconding the cloisters and will add the Frick!! My favorite collection in ny!

Wow.

Knuckles Deep makes me sad because she describes herself as crazy and needy - now unless she’s broken into his house and stolen his child’s bunny and boiled it, I think “crazy” is some bad self-talk. She isn’t needy - she’s a person with needs and you only feel “needy” when those needs aren’t being met. I hate “love…

If it was an open relationship, then he wouldn’t have been so secretive about it.

I disagree in part to the answer to Knuckles Deep: If she’s enjoying herself, then yeah, marriage might not be the endgame. But if that’s where she would like to be headed, and he won’t acknowledge that and affirm it, he’s not really “all in” on their relationship. He’s not saying, “I see your point but I don’t really…

I can’t think of other situations in which you are allowed to blow up another person’s marriage, but I’m sure our commenters can come up with some.

If I were mrs hole I would want to know. Better to know before having more kids/spending more time with him.

White people need to stop acting like calling them racist is the same as calling a POC a racial slur.

Agreed- MIL knows she behaved badly and hurt the writer, so now she’s trying to suck up. Either the husband needs to tell his mom what’s up or writer needs to be direct. Make some “I feel...” statements and go from there. Like “I feel hurt that you were so unhappy with the ceremony that you disparaged it to other…

1st LW: call your MIL a racist piece of shit, loudly, in front of the children and your husband, as often as possible. Do not make nice with her, tell her to go fuck herself, and encourage your children to tell her the same.
