OMG that’s horrible. What is it about 9th birthdays and shitty parents?

65 is considered early... he’s what, 70 at least?

Right? They were deliberately directing it at Jezebel readers, why do they think we all have a belief in a benevolent caretaker god?

She’s done everything in her power to distance herself from feminism and human decency, actively attacking feminism. So, no, feminism owes her exactly nothing. If she doesn’t want to be made fun of for dressing like a fool, then don’t dress like a fool.* It is far, far more important to delegitimize power used

I haven’t been watching the series but I may do now. I aways sorta rolled my eyes at scientology like any of those things people get into.. But that sounds like it’s some kind of legalized blackmail racket? Astonishing....

omg yes george bailey. I was really sad when I watched and he’d become a martyr... still a good cautionary tale movie for a slightly different reason..

Mine is the Great Gatsby. I found it on the bookshelf when I was 11 and marinated in the imagery and language without really understanding the plot- pink suits, yellow cars, green lights... and so we beat on, boats against the current... I re-read it as a teen for school, and better grasped the overall story, it

I like this. Can we do it like Guy Fawkes day, make Trump effigies and burn them on giant bonfires surrounded by cackling children for the next 500 years? Please and thank you.

That’ll be the sign when we know we leveled up and the Resistance must be ready. That statement seems so overdramatic, even a couple of months ago I’d’ve thought so, but now...

Yeah, I get that.

How big is the pit? Who am I kidding, give me the Legos, please.

Strikes are supposed to gum up the works and be inconvenient and make you wait thirty minutes for the cup of coffee you ordered. That’s why they’re effective (See, women’s strike, Iceland, 1975) That is the point of them. Using a vacation day doesn’t really quite send the same message as simply not going or walking

Strike strike strike strike! :)

No, I don’t think so. I mean, they can say that but they’re wrong and dumb. Because the men are following the women.

Yeah, I get what you’re saying but I lean more towards “Shut it the fuck down” :)

It’s “A Day Without A Woman.” I could see men joining the strike, too, and it being powerful as a sign of solidarity. It’s like saying you stand with the strikers, that your values are the same. And it’s one more person who is making the world come to a standstill and pay attention to the issues being raised.

Why does everything have to be about being cute? And why can’t it be about being comfortable, about being covered (no asscrack or muffins hanging out), and having decent pockets? Or as a way to differentiate oneself from the misguided trend of skinny jeans? Those flatter about 15% of the people who wear them, the

I think it works as a whole, each part separately seems like a weird choice, but as a whole it’s pretty pleasing and a departure at least from the norm.

...they aren’t supposed to because she’s fresher than that...

I sort of like the veil. Most celebs who do these kinds of shots are quite naked; as she is. The veil is perhaps a sort of extension of her feelings about keeping private- she never did a photo like this for Blue, and there’s still a lot of people out there who swear she just ran around wearing a fake belly while a
