This movie has a special place in my heart even though I usually loathe Reese Witherspoon. 5 years ago I was sitting in the hospital with my 91 year old grandfather who was suffering from dementia and pneumonia. He didn’t know who we were but he was comfortable enough and he was enjoying the company. I thought he was

I looked up Cohen’s website to see if I could get a look at him. I was wondering if it might help give me context to his objectification in his writing. It didn’t... he looks like a normal, attractive enough looking man. But what I did notice that was interesting was that he was a co-creator of the now defunct HBO

I’m hesitant to say this, but in my darkest moments when I’ve just wanted to end my life - if I’d had access to a gun there’s a fair chance I would have done it. Over fast and not much of a chance I’d have survived. That as opposed to pills or UGH slitting up your veins. I grew up knowing there was a gun in my house,

I’m a nanny that works in a home about 3 miles down the street from this home. I was at the mother’s house, doing laundry and getting together school packets while the kids were at day camp when this happened. Our “family unit” includes the working divorced parents, me, a set of local grandparents, a local aunt and

Here’s a short and sweet fuck you to Williams, whom I otherwise admire: I’ve been on the receiving end of destructive temper tantrums where a meltdown occurs and then something is thrown at me. It’s happened to me as a server in restaurants where a chef freaks out over a table setting and then all of the sudden I’m

I just looked up a live version of Don’t Dream It’s Over by Crowded House before reading this on Jezebel. My heart just breaks.

I keep reading and rereading the title of this article and it still makes no sense to me. Can someone pick it apart for me?

The girl just turned 30. While I refer to myself by that term as much as I do “woman” it’s completely inappropriate in this instance.

I wrestled with my relationship to alcohol and I’ve long been aware that I come from a long line of addicts and in some cases abusive drunks. The interesting thing is, it skipped both of my parents. While they’re both big wine fans they manage to have a happy and healthy connection to red. That being said, my mother

I was thinking about that too. When I slipped in the shower and came to a minute later with no memory of it, I had no idea how hard I’d whacked myself between my eyes. It took a day and a half for my black eye and concussion to develop, but the night of the fall I went to work without a scratch on me.

You keep on Clairing, Claire Claire. That shit is what helps remind me that when my paycheck is late, it’s perfectly acceptable and even demanded that I get up all in my surgeon boss’s face. Being taught to be polite and sweet as a little girl got me zero in the business world, but I’m trying my best to Claire it up

Perhaps, sure, it was bad form to interrupt a news cast to change wardrobe. But she looked unprofessional, that looks like club wear. I don’t care if it was a backup outfit after the first failed on camera. If a high school teacher, CEO of a fortune 500, hostess at a BBQ restaurant, DDS office receptionist, LMT wore

Real question, not trolling - I’ve turned this over in my mind a million times as someone who has been sexually assaulted a multitude of times at work and by close family friends. I don’t understand why we’re judging and convicting a man (who is for sure pervy based upon his track record with his current wife alone)

It’s pretty shoddy advertising - what do Bert and Ernie have to do with the tagline “out of the stoneage”? Why not use Fred and Barney from the Flintstones if you’re going balls to the wall with unlicensed material. Yeah, this was slapped together to get publicity knowing it would be quickly taken down. That, or

Funny how “feminism” magically works for warlords when it fits their agenda.

Don’t worry! I saw them perform at the Black Cat years later in DC to a crowd much better suited to their vibe. I know the whole room was a giant panty soak of love for them. If it makes you feel any better, the next year that I went to Coachella 2004, Coldplay was about to play a set at the end of the night (the

I’m curious as to what anyone thinks about her supposed closet alcholism (I’m aware she suffered from Hep for years). As someone who suffers addiction that I’m addressing, but still, I’m fascinated by people that try to keep a lid on it while existing in the public eye. Just like Paula Abdule she claims to never

I hit up Coachella in 2005, eager to see Bjork and Radiohead and Crowded House etc.... Some brilliant minded person scheduled the stage for Rage Against the Machine right after Crowded House was set to play. Oh my God, those poor sweet New Zealand crooners - they were having water bottles thrown at them by Rage fans

Manganiello and Pee Wee? Agreed!!
