Yet another in the “internet of things is a terrible idea” wagon. I’m a complete techie who deliberately has as few gadgets as possible that have wifi capability and/or video/microphones on them because most tend to be poorly coded and vulnerable. The free Alexa I got with one of my utilities quickly went up for sale

The last time I traveled for Thanksgiving was when we drove up to my uncle’s house when I was pregnant with my youngest child. We were a full two hours late because it took us almost 8 hours to get there in some of the worst traffic I have ever seen on Thanksgiving Day. I spent the entire drive with a pie on my lap,

Didn’t ruin the entire meal, but we still talk about the time in 2008 that my dad, the designated gravy maker, pull a box of what he thought was chicken or turkey stock out of the fridge and instead proceeded to use concentrated chai latte mix as the base for the gravy.

I’ve been so disappointed lately in what progressivism has turned into. Like, this is some Washington Examiner, Red State type shit. When did lefties become like this? I’m not conservative for a reason, it’s because they do shit like this. I don’t want the left doing it either.

I see you got a very not shocking at all reply. It always seems like people feel acknowledging abusive women and that men can be victims "takes away" from the abuse women suffer through. At least in my experience. 

Same reason she tried to somehow connect this statement with Uncle Joe’s creepy touches. To make Joe look bad. It’s pretty much a fail.

Given that the guy liked Atomic Blonde it sounds like you’re just labeling anybody who disagrees with you as an “incel”.

This is the problem with Hollywood’s current approach to many big budget films for women...

The trailers made it seem like it was forcibly “for women” rather than being a good movie with women in it. It looked bad in every respect—awful music choices, unfunny retorts, bad action, unclear plot. In contrast, take Atomic Blonde, which has a kick-ass female protagonist that didn’t need to constantly remind us of

I feel like hating on Adam Sandler is like hating on fried bologna sandwiches. Look, it’s almost never considered high cuisine, it’s about as pedestrian as it comes, and some people are embarrassed by it because they think it makes’em look poor and crass. But you know what? It has its place and some people

Click is pretty nice, and there’s a movie called Reign Over Me with Don Cheadle that’s a depressing deep cut for anyone that’s looking for a serious cry. 

Isn't Sandler getting Oscar buzz for his new movie Uncut Gems?  He has the talent, but I think most of the time he would rather just screw around with his friends.

I live in Québec and we have some of the most generous parental benefits in North America (a full year of leave at a reduced salary which can be used by either parent, comparatively cheap daycare). But I’m not here to brag, because even with all that in place it is HARD being a parent who works full time. For things

I pick up public bathrooms. Especially airplane ones. I use my clean paper towel to wipe down the counter, then use the paper towel to pick up any paper towels on the floor, then push the paper towels down in the trash can so it’s not overflowing. I hate seeing messy public bathrooms. We should be perfectly capable of

I also have OCD and am weird with M&Ms. If my husband and I buy a bag to share, I don’t care about the color but I give us small handfuls at a time with the exact same amount so everything is even. If there is an odd one, I’ve been known to bite it in half.

That’s not all...I also eat burritos the same way. Not tacos, though; I hold those.

Now, before I get eviscerated for this, I should say that I’ve been doing it since I was like thirteen, and the reason is that — for me — it extends the experience and allows me to really savor every moment...

He looks like a roided version of Neil Patrick Harris

I’m telling you, in the future, they are going to use the Trump administration in history, political science, and civics courses to demonstrate so succinctly just how willing people are to tolerate, accept, and defend the intolerable, the criminal, and the unconscionable, all in the name of keeping, gaining or being

It was a mistake born of igneous.
