Yeah, I’ve seen the elephants and tiger edition (the elephant one was a bit dull because the elephants worked out pretty quickly that this ambitory weird-smelling rock was not, in fact, a rock, and either played with it or left it alone) and the program is half “Look at the glory of nature!” and half “Look how clever…

They’re just massively, massively entitled. I was reading a story in the Guardian the other day about a man who was attacked by a mountain lion in a national park (he had the bad luck to come across it when it was feeding off a kill). After about a year or so he was apparently called up by the park rangers who had…

Is that, by any chance Dolphin: Spy in the Pod (or similar) on Netflix? I’ve been umming and ahhhing over whether to watch that for a while now, because typically I think dolphins are kind of smarmy. But, I mean, if it features goddamn bouquets of sea grass it’s a done deal.

“What if, what if. What if I’m taking a shower and I slip on a bar of soap?
Oh my God I’d be killed!”

Oh yes, I always try to leave reviews because I find them so helpful myself.

I used to like Old Navy, but over the last few seasons their cuts have not worked for me. Everything seems to be cut very short and very high-waisted. I’m 5'1" and last season found 1 dress that worked for me, but only in the tall sizing.

EShakti is very good. I can never get my card to process through their website though, so I end up watching Amazon like a hawk in hopes that the things I like will make it to the selection on there.

Heck, I don’t understand why there’s a “Juniors” and a “Misses.” And when do you know when you’re supposed to cross over from the one to the other? I usually end up mixing up stuff from both departments.

Same, that was the bit where I was “Quit shittin’ me, OK magazine.” Like, I don’t mind them making up stuff that’s banal and feasible (although maybe I should), but this particular lie just speaks to a complete lack of actual engagement with pop culture.

I’m thinking a lot of these...pieces are custom-built for the house and wouldn’t fit the dimensions or aesthetic of another property. Also, a lot of the time when I’ve seen fully-furnished properties being sold it’s because the owners are downsizing and don’t want the hassle of getting rid of extra beds etc. Or when…

Yep, we had carpet in our bathroom until the late 90s. Mind you, the cheap vinyl cut-off we replaced it with until my parents could afford to renovate (just after I moved out, natch) wasn’t that much better.

I lost my job on Wednesday, so, the rest of this week has mostly been about that. I’m torn because while I know I made some stupid mistakes and was not giving the position my all, I also felt from the beginning that I wasn’t given adequate guidance in my role and had almost zero feedback or oversight. I know that some…

Actually, a lot of people wouldn’t have been eating that way. The early 1900s was a time of massive industrialization. The percentage of European populations living in cities skyrocketed during that time. People working in factories and warehouses for pennies a week weren’t sitting down to a wholesome meal- a lot of…

“Look at film footage of street secenes from the early mid 1900s. You don’t see fatties. Because it’s not natural. Because people were eating decent diets of non-processed, non-sugary foods in moderate portions, getting lots of exercise and being healthy in the life.”

I suspect shame is the wrong emotion. I’d totally buy that she feels frustrated and disappointed (in herself, even) because she wants to do good work, but people keep offering her these easy, incredibly well-paid roles and she when she does try to do something different it either doesn’t work (Cake) or doesn’t make…

I agree. I’ve never hated her, mostly because I have found it fantastically easy to ignore her if I want to. I don’t have to read her Twitter or watch her show or anything if I don’t want to to, nobody does, but apparently a lot of people DO like to do those things and why hate the player instead of the game?
The…

My only problem with Kim’s pick is that it’s so lacking in aesthetic bent and frankly damn un-sexy. She essentially took a body that I would kill (or at least wound) to possess and turned it into a slab of meat on a counter.
Which could be interesting in other hands, but if we’re being honest there was no thought here…

“I was carried away by the jubilation of the election among my supporters, and said something in error...”

This is one of my big problems with pretty much all religions. The built-in logic of belonging to a religion is that yours is the best and usually the only true form of faith and by extension lifestyle. I think modern, tolerant and accepting forms of Christianity can end up itself into knots trying to be humble and…

“You: unworthy, though becoming less so daily.”
