According to https://www.thefreedictionary.com/Superfluousnes the phrase is translated from French and is used to mean something with no use or purpose.

Proof that even the rich and (in)famous and raging are but mere enamoured factotums when it comes to their cats?

I am sure each of the contestants is beautiful in their own way. Celebrate the unique! (Seriously, though, I really hope that this stops any future use of enhancements. I don’t think anyone needs cosmetic surgery, and I am sure none of these animals asked for it.)

OMG, so adorable! They look like toys. I bet that stinking town does have their own Li’l Sebastian!

But, isn’t she also bringing light onto the subject of pay disparity and how it is for WOC, particularly? I think we could argue that changes that she is arguing about for herself could/should/would be applied to others.

And then, grossness of this type that happened in 2010“Queen asked government for help with heating bills”.There is no shame. This is during a time of what the UK govt calls “austerity” and the Queen is trying to use a fund meant to help low-income families. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-11403544

Sorry, off topic, but there was a comment somewhere here saying that you were going through some difficult stuff right now (no details given and it was said in relation to some crap going on with some troll or another?). I wanted to wish you the best and let you know I look forward to reading your posts here even when…

So much of that description could be applied to Trump ...

This is peak Trump. Wants to be fancy, just doesn’t quite know what that means or how to get there.

Funny how corporate bailouts are never seen as government intervention or the corporate welfare it is.

I love the child’s show Horrible Histories (don’t judge!) and in one episode they talked about someone wanting to protect their territory by getting a wall. They built the wall using thick shrubbery. Soon people were still sneaking through it. I wish I could remember more details, but every time I think of Trump’s…

Yup, https://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-news/what-s-mental-test-trump-took-n838176 . The true test of his intelligence is that he appears to be bragging about ‘acing’ it.

Oh, I agree.

Yeah, I feel like they got hit hard with WWI, were still reeling from that and got caught up in some very bad ideas which lead them to the (previously) unimaginable acts of WWII. It was that complete self-destruction of who they thought they were that made rebuilding with an improved moral compass possible. I don’t…

But Gella, that can’t be true. He told us he was a genius, and he just aced the brain test the doctor gave him. I know you are probably considering alternative facts to come to this determination. Or, like all the media that doesn’t laud Trump, you are just biased and spreading fake news. You too could be in line for…

Wow, this is great news. I hope that her voice remains the guiding light for the show and is not too watered down. The first two seasons were brilliant.

Not to mention boys who are sexually assaulted by women and then go on to talk about their ‘good luck’. That trope is quite old and still needs to be addressed.

And still lacking in common sense and grounding in reality.

Now we are having a different discussion. Your initial argument was that police could tell by looking at someone whether they had been drugged and raped. (See your statement: “Somebody who has been drugged and raped is almost certainly gonna show enough outward signs of injury that police would pick up on it.”). I…
