@RunningCori: I also did not know his name was Jim Bob. Of course it is.

@RunningCori: I did not know that.
@malishka: Well, on the show she said she was on MediCal for a while and is not now. Not, frankly, that I begrudge her if she gets public assistance. If the Duggars and the Gosslins hadn't been feeding at the corporate teat, they likely would have had to get public help themselves.
@kung fu lola: Interestingly, she said she has private health insurance for all the kids and that she is not on public assistance. She's doing better than I would have predicted.
@Gnatalby: Agreed. She's a person. How about we grant her a little dignity?
What I witnessed didn't seem so dismal to me. I found her vastly less crazy than I expected and the love she has for her kids is genuine. It's not a choice I would have made, but I feel like the hostility towards her is unfair, especially compared to the slavering over the Duggars and the Gosslins.
Scott Baio apparently doesn't realize that Canadian dollars aren't the same as US dollars. Or he's being deliberately obtuse. So these are our choices: idiot or manipulator?
She gets my back up, but this just doesn't work. You could replace her in the story with anyone — say, Scott Baio — and it still wouldn't be funny.
@MissRose: Yes, because he's incapable of understanding metaphors, or reason.
@mardi: I think it's their hysterical overreactions, and the fact that they keep digging their own metaphorical graves deeper and deeper. Hollywood doesn't exactly embrace homophobes and right-wing hysterics.
@Chamalla,barren crone: Brilliant.
What an ugly little family the Baios are.
I just canNOT believe the lawyer agreed to have his interactions with her filmed. It destroys the attorney client privilege, and if I were the prosecution, I'd be using snippets of the show at trial. For example, when he told her to "dress conservatively" for Court — which I would use to demonstrate that the prim…

@Snowbunny: Yeah — a friend of mine says they don't really have clothes to sell in the Miami store any way.
A friend of mine went to this store last week and said it's a joke. There is virtually no merchandise, the sales staff are bored and uninviting and all they seem to sell is "Dash" water a picture of the sisters on it. Just as I suspected — all brand and no substance.
For Chicago readers, Alliance Bakery on Division makes amazing macarons. The coconut lime and the blueberry cream-cheese ones are recent faves.
@LadyvonSnarkyPants: keep him. La Duree is the bomb.com, and apparently so is your husband!
She looks lovely and fresh, which is hard to pull off in Coachella heat.
