jeez people, why does every show gotta be revelatory? This is a pulpy, interesting enough program with decent suspense and hooks to keep you watching. A solid watch when you’re home sick or confined to a place with nothing better to do for a day or two. For whatever the show is lacking, as soon as I start watching it…

Maybe “bomb” isn’t the right word to use there.

Okay, so that very photo is the reason I was always scared of pressure cookers. A foodie friend pointed out that it was a stovetop one and that the Instant Pots are so much safer. She pointed out that if the IPs were ‘splodey like that, it’d be all over the internet.

It very much depends upon what state the recording takes place in whether or not it is illegal.

Considering the way Trump talks, the person who says she wasn’t in a meeting that matters is blowing smoke.

I don’t love “Chicago West” but I do like “Chi West,” so this is very ‘hmmm’ for me.

That’s like two of his kid’s names right there.

I actually don’t hate the name “Chicago” for a baby on its own. It’s not my favorite but it’s by no means the worst I’ve ever heard.

Are you trying to miss the point?

Just a sub point here: we should be very wary of framing any silence (such as Mariska’s) as to remuneration as “classy”. While that has been the upper classes’ preference for many hundreds years (and is a pervasive idea in etiquette), it can make it a lot more difficult (if not impossible) for women to get a sense of…

read some of the other comments. faye was on grey’s for a season and i imagine ellen would only bring her up out of familiarity with her.

I have not always been a fan of Ellen Pompeo’s but I find this article refreshing. I like that she’s being blunt, open and honest about her experiences and I’m glad to see someone actually doing something, anything to move the conversation forward. I like her explaining some of the dynamics on the set and how she…

You need to take a seat. The culture of “classy” is nothing more than a scam to silence women. Good for Ellen Pompeo for talking about income disparities.

There’s a pretty significant difference between bragging about how rich you are and being open about what you get paid, how you negotiated for it, etc.

Why does she need to be classy?

I feel like you’re missing the point. The comment came from respect. She named someone she feels should have all the power and money she can handle. She isn’t calling out Dunaway she’s calling out a patriarchal power structure that has left one of the greatest actors of her generation without any real financial or…

I didn’t see it as a dig, quite the opposite. Faye Dunaway is a fucking legend but she doesn’t have the economic power to match, and the only explanation for that is sexism.

fuck “class”. she’s trying to make real change in the industry. expecting women to be “classy” while they work hard at things is just another way of policing them.

She’s not dragging Faye, but rather pointing out how dispossable women are in Hollywood. Faye was huge in the late-60s/70s, was in films that made money, had massive critical acclaim, and an Oscar to boot. Then, she made two films that flopped, and her career was dead. She has tried resurrecting it - even going over…
