So this year I went to the Philippines (my mother’s home country) for one month with my family. We hit up all the touristy stops that were still beautiful despite the crowds. The influencer set becomes so much more cringey in such high concentrations. Whistles going off every couple of minutes at Kayangan Lake because…

I’m partway through episode 2. Episode 1 pulled me in, but now it’s just reminding me of all the reasons I loved the film that it’s not quite capturing. I respect they want to do something new-ish, but in this case it kind of just feels incredibly unoriginal. Saoirse Ronan so perfectly slipped from cold-blooded…

I know I’m just repeating here but happy well-adjusted dogs do not bark constantly. Some breeds are inclined to bark more or less than others, but it’s more likely that their owner is not investing the time and energy to address separation anxiety or some other issue. Unfortunately, a lot of people’s response to…

Yeah another source said that he said “subscribe to pewdiepie” which I guess is a meme or something. But I’m not sure, I am not very YouTube Aware.

Would definitely watch this. I watched the video after reading just the headline and was expecting something waaay different (ie one of those dramatic edits or w/e)

I’m not one for elaborate lies, so I’d say my most *successful* lie was when I dropped and broke my Nintendo DS like two weeks after I got it. Naturally, I didn’t pay for any “insurance” so I put it into a box and mailed it to Nintendo with a handwritten note that just said “will not turn on”. Two weeks later, they…

This whole story is so bizarre and I can’t understand why these guys would go along with it. Was the idea that Smollett was reassuring them they wouldn’t get caught or something? Payout doesn’t seem like enough to make up for getting arrested and charged.

IMO he’s in the crowd I would describe as representing the worst impulses of the fashion industry. He both advanced fashion while contributing to the blatant lack of self-awareness and accountability that runs rampant through the industry and keeps it in the dark ages (cough, Dolce and Gabbana).

This is awful! A lot of subway stations in my city do not have elevators or they’re always under construction. Almost all have escalators, but many only have them going in one direction. I’ve had to help a few elderly people carrying their shopping carts or lots of bags because it’s so unsafe. And this is in a region…

Yeah, the trailer kind of gave me the same vibe as the “American Hustle” trailer, which ended up being (IMO) a very different film, tone-wise, than what the trailer had set up.

Sometimes I have to deal with co-Canadians who think a US system is better because they have to wait months for non-emergency surgery or because, unfortunately, the system can get overloaded (thanks to cuts!). But a kid with strep here would just go to any walk-in clinic if he doesn’t have a GP, show his provincial…

I’m definitely not mad at it, I’ve had a crush on him since I saw how he grew up back in his Skins days and I think he’s a terrific actor. Plus, I like that he seems extremely low key and consistently a nice, pleasant person.

I had a FB many years ago who always bragged about how much he loved going down but he wasn’t good AND wouldn’t take direction. Maybe some people enjoy it when someone just jams their tongue inside of their vagina for 10 minutes straight but ugh, no.

He definitely has the face of someone who has had a lifetime of unearned and unchallenged entitlement. A kid who has never been promised anything less than whatever he wants. at the most basic level, I can never imagine behaving that way toward an older person when I was his age, growing up in a household where…

I moved cross country over a year ago and only brought about 10 books that had sentimental value. I used to be a snob about Ebooks, but I’m saving a ton of money by borrowing library books that way (and not incurring late fees!)

I used to dislike Kinmel a lot but after he connected his family’s experience with their baby almost dying to the importance of preserving the affordable care act, I warmed up to him a lot. I still don’t love a lot of his bits, but it definitely humanized him for me.

Hah whoops, just realized I wrote kavinsky instead of kominsky. I blame it on Noah centineo???

Her final speech of season 7 seemed to confirm that she’s totally lost her grip with reality. She’s still playing in the kiddie pool while the rest of the kingdom has gone off the deep end. While I enjoyed the first part of her revenge plot, at this point I can take her or leave her. 

Is The Kavinsky Method any good? I just finished binging Barry and was disappointed that Bill Hader and the series didn’t win. 

I’ve only seen a couple of the nominated films, but I was super surprised to see the Bohemian rhapsody was even NOMINATED because the reception to it seemed so lukewarm. I was so excited for it to come out and I haven’t seen it because it seemed like it ended up being a let down. I really thought Beale Street would…
