These dudes who think they’re owed a perfect 10 by the universe, jfc. I had a friend in his mid-20s; sweet nerdy guy, awesome friend, looked like an adorable miniature version of Hagrid. He had an amazing girlfriend who shared his nerdy interests, enjoyed his friends (I’d actually befriended them each individually…

TRUE STORY: I work in Rock Center but NOT for NBC and a colleague of mine had a broken leg. One day she was struggling down the street on crutches past 30 Rock and Hoda walked out to get in her black car. Hoda did NOT know my colleague, but because Hoda is a dream, she gave my colleague her black car and told it to…

“What I’ve actually learned is that the work of keeping your path clear is a continual process, one so all-consuming that you may not ever have the time to look up and see where you’re going”

This is a prime example, yes. “Pearl Harbor” also comes to mind, though that one was rightfully mocked from the start. That said, it gets less offensive and more just generally eyerolly the more decades you put between the event and the movie. This one is just too soon to avoid the ick factor. (Looking at you too,…

Well first, there is a huge element of time. Some tragic events with enough time can be become mundane enough to become jokes even.

Besides it being incredibly lazy to just plop a rom com plot against the backdrop of a historical event or tragedy, it’s also the worst type of disaster porn.

This reminds me of Sherman Alexie’s commentary as to the ‘romantic westerns’ which were set against the backdrop of... indigenous genocide.

Oddly enough, I want Trump’s legacy to be the first US President to die in prison.

Sorry but does no one think what Prince Harry said was rude? No I guess most people don’t have Royals as family but literally that was a very not nice thing to say.

I hope they send Melania and Donnie a save-the-date card, but never send an invitation.

Thank you for this comment. I have actually never heard of DBT. I just began treatment for PTSD (after years of suffering) and feel very good about being pro-active. The therapist I am working with uses EMDR (something I’d never heard of until meeting her), but hadn’t mentioned any of this DBT. I am reading up on it…

If it is not a good time after someone shoots a school full of kids, why would it be after shooting just 2 people?

Because actually dealing with shit, and tamping down your worst impulses is for women and minorities. When white men have to do it, then they should have all the venues: music, art, politics, running companies into the ground to mitigate their extreme rage at not having their every whim catered to.

As I said on the root post, those are my questions. Where was this guy radicalized? Who has he exposed these views to? And do they also have access to guns?

I love you!

CUT MY LIFE INTO PIECES THIS IS MY LAST RESORT

Why would someone punch an overly-generous ATM? I would not punch that ATM. I would kiss it and give it all the love I could, treating it gently so it could keep on giving way too many moneys.

SMALL CLAMS COURT

Shucks, if I were him I’d be clamoring to sue!

Remember when people wore this for about a week.
