Uh I think you just solved the case: they took a bunch of different pictures of her and photoshopped her into Frankenstein’s monster.

It doesn’t even look like a photo to me. Between the way-too-saturated colors, the graininess and the odd positioning and anatomy, I thought it was just a digital painting.

That’s why I didn’t understand how she got this role and the Oscar nomination.

When that awful Nina Simone movie came out with the darkening makeup and prosthetic nose, I thought the real Nina Simone wouldn’t even land an audition for her own biopic.

That’s a terrible photo with some horrific photoshop. The way she’s posed and styled makes her look like she’s been pieced together from different people. And that can happen with just being posed in a funny way - I have a photo of me where it looks like my hand was pasted on. But I didn’t have a professional…

She looks way too stretched in the torso there, like she’s about to transform into a giant snake. 

My ex does the same thing. He treats the dissolution of our relationship like he forgot to file his taxes or he left the front door open.

Tom Cruise is a good example of excellent cosmetic work, expertly done. There is *no way* a normal-ass short, 59-year old white guy looks like he does, which is a discreetly crag-ified version of his mid-20s prime self. He’s had work done. Lots of it. Maybe he’s got an entire surgery/derm/aesthetic team on retainer;…

Women get the message pretty early on that youth and beauty are valuable. After an entire career where her worth was her attractiveness, you can’t figure out why it would be hard to come to terms with aging and becoming less attractive? There is an enormous amount of pressure on women to not "let themselves go." I…

We might lose a bunch of elections though! Better to roll back abortion rights and THEN lose anyway!

Some asshole on my Facebook feed did a side by side of her and Tom Cruise today to show “who takes care of themselves and who doesn’t.”

I don’t care if she was a [put whatever employment makes you happy here], we can be empathetic for a person that goes in to get a procedure done and is physically scarred for life after.  It doesn’t matter who she was or who she is.  Stop judging people. 

Hey, look at what happened *last friggin’ month* to Bridget Fonda after some-20 years of fading into obscurity: a fucking paparazzo figured out where she lived, *staked out her house*, and took photos of her looking like a normal middle-aged mom. She had gained a lot of weight and some of the press were rather cruel…

I am more sympathetic, I guess. I think the article is about living with shame, disappointment, and fear of being judged for “letting yourself go.” Look at the recent coverage of Kelly McGillis. Well-known people are not allowed to fall into obscurity when there is news to be made for showing unflattering pictures.

“I don’t like Kim, but...” — Your opinion on Kardashian does not matter.

On the one hand I feel bad for Ye that he doesn’t seem to have that one person in his life who he actually listens to. That one family member or close friend who tells you to cut the bullshit and gets you hooked up with the help you need.

Imagine being so desperate to appear superior that you’d jump on on three words from a sub-head with no bearing on the piece that follows.

I was just going to say, I saw a Facebook meme which basically said (I’m paraphrasing): Once there was a man who abused his wife, broke up with her, stalked her, and eventually killed her. Decades later, his lawyer’s daughter married Kanye West.

Yes, evidently “the kids” these days don’t punctuate the last sentence of a text. I was recently informed by my 15 yo niece that I “scare” her when I write short, punctuated sentences like “OK.” because it sounds rude. God help us all.

Ha! I am late Gen X and I feel you. I am pretty informal in my texts now, but the rare times I post anything (now that I’ve taken most social media off of my phone), I still use grammar and punctuation.
