Ew. Ew ew ew! I’m not judgmental about much but I judge the shit out of super selfish people who get a dog and then keep it locked up all day. My brother’s roommate got a fucking DOBERMAN puppy and does the same thing - keeps it crated all day ‘because its so destructive and pees everywhere.’ So now its got bladder…

I think people can strike a care balance that works for both the dog and the person when dealing with a demanding job, but clearly your co-worker wasn’t even trying.

I totally chilled a friendship with a co-worker after she told me about the shit she put her dog through while she was at work. She got this husky puppy as a Christmas present (“’cause they’re SOOO cute!”) and then kept it in a crate all day when she was gone because he was “super destructive.” When the neighbors…

I don’t get that either. When I lived with a dog, we took him outside for a walk regularly to avoid messes.

I’m hoping for it. I’m hoping he shits all over them and is like “Worth it for never being able to host again.”

Sadly, I think there is an uncomfortable percentage of dog havers who like them as cute accessories and not full-on living, breathing, eating, pissing, shitting, wonderful companions.

This. So much this. It never gets talked about in mainstream press. And even if it did......can you imagine a dark skinned black woman talking about that the way Amy Schumer talks about her weight? “Angry black woman” would get slapped on her so fast.

No they don’t. But he’s totally within his rights to speak on this. And what he’s saying is 100% true. He’s being supportive and coming from a place of marginalization himself as a black person in our society. The idea that he should just keep quiet on this strikes me as really counter-productive. A black actor can…

Maybe not, but I'm glad he brought it up. Made me stop and think.

Chris is speaking the truth. It seems to me he’s also subtlely talking about colorism toward actresses of African descent as well. Almost every “black” actress cast in movies/tv these days is light skinned/biracial/multi-racial. Hollywood really does not like dark skinned black women.

As a black woman this makes my head hurt. This is also one of many reasons that kept me out of acting when everyone said I’d be sooo good at it and encouraged me to try. Who was going to put ME in anything? I could see with my own eyes. My English is too good, I’m not chubby or sassy. Why bother. And even now, if you…

I’m starting to think the Oscars are actually going to be pretty entertaining this year. I can’t imagine Chris Rock not openly giving the Academy major shit during the broadcast.

Yo Hank, lemme borrow your cat. My body is in open rebellion and I need something soft to snuggle.

Hank Azaria’s cat might be cuter than mine. And I do not say that lightly.

For being so nice he gave the place his Seal of approval on Yelp.

“Yes sir, welcome to the Marine room. Our specials today are a salmon en croute with a brown butter buerre blanc, truffled potato puree and an assortment of seasonal locally sourced seasonal greens or an...old bucket full of various fish parts.”

Please next do What Makes a Soup a Soup. We’ve been debating this in my office.

kate, you’re one of my favorites when you aren’t so so wrong.

Did she confuse a cook book with a spell book? None of these things sound like real things.

But isn’t the answer to that “next question” that an employer is responsible for things an employee does within the scope of their employment? I mean, you know, when the cops have been shooting or otherwise killing people on-duty then some victims have received wrongful death settlements.
