“The adult version of the kid who played Billy Elliot”? Really? Do you somehow not know what Jamie Bell’s name is? Come on.

I’m 29. My classmates were whispering about these allegations against Kelly (in a childish way, but still) when I was in grade school. She has had more than enough time to get with the program. Her apology is good, and removing the music is good, but what would be better is if she put together a little estimate of how…
Frankly, while it’s a great look and very creative, I find it more than a little distasteful for men (or other people AMAB and who don’t menstruate) to sort of appropriate menstruation in this way. It’s not theirs to claim or reclaim- we all know that it’s stigmatized and should be destigmatized, but is it really…
This was truly the only tv show that captured what it’s like to be a Jewish-American woman in her mid-twenties. I’m so grateful for that. It was over the top, sure, but I felt seen and represented on screen the way I never really have before.
Where’s the content? I thought I was reading an introduction to the article or list, but I got to the bottom of the piece and that was it. Was part of the piece just omitted by mistake, or is this just low-effort?
Haggis really isn’t that big of a deal. Sure, it’s labour-intensive to make, but I’ve never understood the freak-outs some people have (and others seem to expect) about haggis. But you’re right that they should probably just be purchased.
(Also- acting as though Europeans of any stripe are somehow intrinsically less…
I mean, we all know Miley Cyrus is a good singer and has a certain something when she lives in the pop-alt-country zone, but it’s like she just can’t help herself, she just is drawn to the Bad Place of appropriative!hip hop
No, they were waving a rainbow flag with a Jewish star on that. It’s not their fault you conflate Jews with the Israeli government.
That’s a whole lot of words when you could have just said you don’t give a shit about Jews because all of our complaints about antisemitism are actually just because we’re all Zionists. Glad I wasted my time reading this garbage.
I live in Toronto too (and commute along King W to Bay St. every day) and I’ve also never heard of these women. And honestly the King W stretch is for pathetic wannabes who wish they were as wealthy as these sisters. It’s why I don’t do the nightlife there. Expensive and not fun; full of grasping desperate poseurs.…
As a queer Jew, yes. Though I will say it is the only serious show I’ve ever seen that was spoke to me as a Jew. No other show has ever really done that (save for Broad City, which as much as I love it, is a totally different animal). That meant something to me, and frankly, Soloway has kind of ruined it.
I feel for this woman because of her loss, and I would never call her a “baby killer”, but what she did constitutes gross negligence and is the cause of her child’s death. She had no plan for emergency medical care. It’s just foolishness of the highest order, and apologism for that is no use to anyone. Except the Free…
The ballet world is incredibly racist and misogynist, so it’s no surprise that it’s taken shoe companies approximately ten million years to roll out three whole colours of shoe. It is incredibly depressing, though. But I’m glad things are moving in the right direction on the shoe front.
A P.F. Chang’s. These stupid white fucks want to secede from the nation Stockbridge because a shitty fake Chinese chain restaurant doesn’t want to open a franchise location in their town.
I personally think more people should know about doesthedogdie.com. It lists warnings for a ton of different things beyond animal death, such as drug use, suicide, strobe effects, cancer, miscarriage, depictions of mental institutions, etc. If people knew about this, they might be more likely (and able) to take…
I’m from SoPo- living abroad but so proud and happy to have voted absentee (straight blue ticket) in October. I’m hoping for the best! My parents are still there and my sister’s in Portland. All fingers crossed.
Reporting in from Toronto (1% rental vacancy; my building had a rent strike last year) as a tenant to lend solidarity to those in California. Good luck to them. (Most) landlords are the scum of the earth.
Same. I have a dozen eggs, some old sauces that I need to throw out, a bunch of miscellaneous condiments, butter, green curry paste, miso paste, a single head of broccoli, and some frozen chicken breasts. Could be worse, I guess, but I’m definitely not buying up cute little yogourts and bales of berries.
Natural nut butters should be refrigerated after opening, actually. They have no preservatives and are not shelf-stable, unlike the other stuff (which is full of stabilizers). While they won’t go bad immediately (you can probably store them on a shelf in a reasonably cool room for upwards of a week) they will…
