You had Lil Wayne at cough drop.

You really can’t beat plain ol’ milk chocolate.

Not to mention THINNESS. The crazy beautiful MPDG girl is always thin. 

I would love to read an article or something you write about this experience. I find myself knee-jerk disagreeing with that last sentiment, but as a black woman (assuming you’re not black, but open to being told otherwise, of course) the circumstance are different. I find that white people expect me to be aggressive,

As a Gen Xer from a super sexist household, these books appealed to me for all the wrong reasons. When my sister and I were “well-behaved” and did what our parents wanted, we didn’t really get any other attention. Our submissiveness was our value.

I did this on another thread but want to do it here— RIP Neil Peart. I loved Rush in my teens and the got me through some rough shit in the way that music only can do when you’re that young.  Neil Peart wrote songs that geeky, isolated kids could listen to and feel less alone (and the monumental musicianship didn’t

Hell fuckin’ YEAH, Maya. I am so happy to hear that things are looking up (also, randomly, the Isle of Wight looks cool). I wish you a better decade—in my own experience, with nothing but subjectivity and superstition on my side, I believe in the power of decades. I have decided to excise the eighties from my life--I

Recursion is probably my favorite book I read that was released this year.

Agreed, there’s no way Michelle Obama is that sitcom petty and insecure.

I cannot imagine “there’s a big argument and the night ends with Barack having to sleep on that couch” over that clip.  If anything, I think it would just make Michelle laugh and be like “Everyone knows my husband’s hot.  Get over here, babe.” 

Americans as a group DESPISE affectation. Look how pissy we get about hipsters and steampunks. I think that’s why we get similarly pissy over someone “affecting” the traits of an Englishwoman.

Can we have an article about how she “rescues” black children from Africa who have living relatives instead of just like, building an orphanage or adopting kids who are actual orphans?

IDK maybe I would have respected this whole charade more if she went for a full on Yorkshire accent.

I realize that Trump is the poster boy for the Dunning Kruger Effect, so yes, he probably did think that he would get a rousing ovation - hell, he probably thought the bullpen was going to call and ask him to come pitchy a couple innings - but is everyone else around him so brainwashed they honestly weren’t expecting
