I also have Prime (for shipping) and Netflix Streaming and could not agree more. I did a trial of Hulu Plus and it was not worth it.

I actually enjoyed the Oscars this year more than I have in a long time, but maybe it was because my expectations for the Oscars are always fairly low. That said I found Ellen was charming and funny, performances were well done (for the most part), and again thanks to Ellen there was an overall sense of fun to the…

I've run into a few conversations lately related to feminism and door holding and I find it kind of strange. As a woman I get the impression that I am expected to have strong opinions on the topic of door holding, but I really don't.

I hold doors open for people, it just seems like the polite thing to do, and I almost…

I'd be lying if I said that I don't take how I look into account, though "stress" and "worry" aren't words I would use to describe the way in which I take them into account. I would say that as a woman and you know generally an adult human being my number one stresser is money from little everyday things to dealing…

I know, poor Ken was constantly getting gang banged.

Free People amuses me, I'm simultaneously very attracted to their breezy bohemian aesthetic and unable to get my head around paying upwards of $200 to dress like a very stylish hobo.

Also many of our skaters were pretty young and at their first Olympics. I realize that age doesn't always matter, but not everyone can be a 15 year old prodigy, some people have to work at their craft and mature over the years. But yeah....mostly the funding...

I actually found it funny that in the first paragraph of this article Claire is described as "cold" and Frank as "passionate." One of the things that I find most interesting about this show and their relationship as a couple is how they often don't fall into normal gender roles when it comes to how they react to…

I totally agree. It doesn't matter to feminism if Claire is a feminist, it matters that she exists. That such an interesting character exists for a woman and a woman in her late 40's no less. My goodness she is fierce.

I've been seeing her compared to Skyler a lot lately which is interesting because it never…

Ugh, I hate high waisted pants as much as I hate the super low slung ones. Guess I'd better stock up now.

I GoldieBlox is a nice concept I guess, but I've been a little confused why everyone is so very excited about it because it is still being marketed directly at girls instead of children in general, so yes building and mechanics for girls, but still FOR girls. So is that really that much better? I'm 29 now and I…

I wish I didn't feel the need to shower everyday, but if I don't shower in the morning (or at the very least wash my hair) by about noon my face feels very greasy and I spend the rest of the day feeling uncomfortable. I should note that I don't think I actually look greasy or gross if I forgo one day of showering, so…

Seriously was anyone surprised that Hannah Horvath is a Gawker reader and Jezebel commenter?

There will be sales.

I'm 5'9" and I find it astoundingly hard to find dresses that are long enough, and I'm not even talking knee length. I just want something that covers my ass. For example I LOVE Modcloth, but so many of their dresses are less than 36" from shoulder to hem, and that is the minimum length I need to an item to qualify as…

They might give it a limited re-release leading up to the Oscars, so keep an eye out for that. I think I'm in the minority, but I thought it was a really weak movie. Visually it is spectacular, but the story, characters, etc. are incredibly flat/weak.

So um, I was basically hate-watching Downton Abbey at this point anyway, but I think they just took it about a million steps too far. And not in the "oh wow, they're so edgy kind of way," but in the "I'm extremely uncomfortable with the lengths they appear willing to go to to create 'drama'" kind of way.

Yeah, I'm really looking forward to seeing it. It left theatres before I could get to it, but I'm hoping it will come back for a bit in the lead up to the Oscars.

This makes me think it would be fascinating for men in relationships to use their partner's picture to set up an online dating site, as a kind of experiment in experiencing the world through her POV if only in a very small way. No idea what this would accomplish other than to amuse me, but still.

Okay good to know. I haven't seen 12 Years a Slave yet (I know, I know), it has been a busy couple of months. I was a little worried that Jez might be freaking out as a sort of JLaw backlash. I don't doubt the Lupita was fantastic, I've heard only good things, but at the same time sometimes Jez likes to…
