You put into words what I was thinking. I would only add that pretty much all exceptional attributes come with pain because of the great pressure to take advantage of them.

"Celebrity, Sex, Fashion for Women..." plus she's just topped Time's annual most influential person list.

Imagine rich Wall Street guys starting a campaign telling everyone that money doesn't make you happy and "doesn't move you forward in life." Similarly, Beyonce has a big chuck of pretty capital, and it's served her very, very well, and moved her forward in life quite a bit, over and above what her talent capital would…

I think we have established that to the writers of Jezebel, Photoshop is some magical voodoo, that was programmed by devil witches and demons that drink baby tear mochas.

Oh my fucking god, right?! THIS IS JUST COLOR-CORRECTION. JESUS CHRIST.

Color correction really isn't that big of a deal.

I'm so glad the little boy is safe and I applaud his bravery. Re: the video, no matter your beliefs, it is always beautiful to hear voices and see faces turned towards God and goodness. I hope the person who took the boy feels remorse for what he did, and has the bravery and strength to turn himself in.

I appreciate that he is removing himself from public promotion of the movie amidst the allegations, but the whole "COME ON, you guys! The MOVIE!!!!" thing feels a bit icky.

I would only accept the one with the top hat. if I'm dining with a stuffed animal, I want it to be as classy as possible. We would discuss stocks, bonds, speedboats, and other sophisticated topics.

Mostly off -topic, but for the love of everything, when will media stop referring to peoples' adopted children!!? Just once, I'd like to read, like, "Meg Ryan's daughter Daisy."

Yeah, fuck those kidnap and abuse victims! It's like, what don't you find hilarious about your longterm torture and imprisonment! Get over it by now, amirite? That shit is hilarious!

The only good thing that has come out of HIMYM is Robin Sparkles.

That actually seems extremely soothing.

I'm sorry to have to point out the obvious: it is *never* her fault if a rapist rapes again. You know whose fault it is? THE RAPIST'S. You make it sound like anyone who didn't report a rape is raping people themselves, and that is why I said fuck you.

1. You're. As in, "if you're going to be an inconsiderate asshole, at least do it well."

Once every two weeks, eh, Dean McDermott? My husband's anxiety and depression means that we haven't done it in 6 months, and before that we were on about a once-every-four-months schedule. And we don't have kids. Go fuck yourself. If you promise to be faithful to someone and work through difficult times, once every…

You're so right! We should stop letting all of these rape survivors consult on the matter, because they are clearly drowning out the opinions of men who have no first-hand knowledge or experience with it.

I'll make this really simple for you: Josh Lueke was not convicted of rape. Josh Lueke is a rapist. These two things are not incongruent or inconsistent.

its a mystery
