Recently, 215 bodies of Indigenous children were found on a residential school property in Kamloops Canada.  The residential school was run by the Catholic Church.  I was raised RC - I am so beyond giving one single fuck about being able to eat shitty crackers at church, and frankly, any other edict that comes from

Anyone really, truly surprised by this?

Meh, I hear George Michael’s “Faith” as the back-beat.  Is it just me?

The 1980's was also the era of Victorian chic decorating - so many frills, frills and dark furniture, frills, frills everyfuckingwhere.

Oh dear Dog that is hideous.  This from a woman who was a bridesmaid several times in the 1980's.  One word: peplums.  So many dresses with peplums (plural per dress).

My best friend (a filmmaker) and I watch the Oscars together every year. We begin the festivities with the Annual Mocking of the Gowns.  We are old and have to admit, we miss Cher’s stunning Bob Mackie creations.
