BN employee of 20+ years here. Unfortunately, most people don’t realize that there are living, breathing people working on the ground at these stores who work there strictly because they love (and I mean LOVE) books. Because it certainly ain’t for the money and glamour. And while I can understand hating on the…

Mine is a Commodore—Commodore Pusskins of the H.M.S. Catsnax :)

I enjoyed going to Hampstead (and Hampstead Heath) and also a walking tour of Highgate Cemetery (you have to be on the tour to get into the overgrown, locked up side); it sounds morbid but is actually really gorgeous looking and historically informative. If you want to do more general tourist-y stuff, then the…

Amen!  I have 2 different pairs of Crocs wedges and they strike a great balance between style and comfort—had ‘em for years and won’t give ‘em up. :)

I have 2 pairs of Crocs wedges and you would never even know they were Crocs. Been wearing them for years, so it’s possible to strike a balance between stylish and comfort. :D

This. You summed up so-called incels perfectly. It’s really voluntary celibacy because a. they think they don’t have to do anything to make themselves attractive (or at least not abhorrent) to another human being and b. they all want model-hot tens even though they are fours and fives. But nooooo...they don’t want…

So what’s the problem here? Because all I see is awesomeness. ;)

In another article it did state that the 2 men were asked to order something or leave. They then refused and the barista said they would call the cops for trespassing. The 2 men then said to go on, call the cops & they stayed put. It was a stupid situation with a tug of war between these 2 guys & the barista that…

I work in a bookstore and we go through this every year with the SI swimsuit issue. Since it’s a bestseller, they want it displayed at the front checkout, but that sends all the pearl clutchers into conniptions of “But the children!” Or at least they claim it’s about the children and definitely not about their…

Yey, but looking back, Ted gave some of those dudes assignments that were waaaaaayyyyyy beyond their culinary abilities. So maybe they simplified the dishes on purpose?

I stopped after the John Lithgow season. And from what I’ve read, that’s probably for the best.

“I don’t go on social media looking to hate on people...”

All I see is Betty Davis in “Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?”

I love snuggling with my fat cat Albus! He’s so delightfully squishy that not having him there to squeeze at night makes it harder to sleep. He’s like a living, breathing plushie. :D

They sell Frida Kahlo lipstick at the checkout at CVS. :(

But what about all the kids that don’t have health insurance? Until the health insurance mess in this country is cleaned up, all the recommendations in the world won’t matter. Sure, it may make a difference to those with privilege, but those are the ones that are already likely to get care anyway. Yearly check ups…

I’m sure she did it for a hefty fee from Versace, if the caption & hashtags are anything to go by. That dress is an advertisement.

Omg! That fight scene was craaaaaazy! What movie is this?

Freedom from pesky bikini lines! Feminism wins!

I used to jokingly refer to it as the ‘half-a-swimsuit issue’ because typically the model would only have a part of the suit on anyway. I guess this is the next step in the evolution; now SI is just dispensing with the suits altogether.
