In 2018, Swift waded into the fray to endorse two Democratic candidates in her home state, Tennessee; while those candidates did not prevail, she’s credited with inspiring 65K+ voter registrations nationwide. Moreover, two days ago the USPS warned 46 states that their ballots were at risk of return delays. (Many of…

And even if she had been bandwagoning here, her tweets still would have been important! This message is one that needs to be signal boosted by everyone with a platform, so the 100th person that does it is just as important as the first! So many states (including important swings states like Michigan, Florida, and…

This and the Bella Hadid story a couple of weeks ago is click baity misogony. Also, and damn it I hate defending Swift because she kind of annoys me, she came out before this - in June in support of BLM and donated as well. This makes it sound like she bandwagoned on this. It’s misleading, lazy, and *unty reporting.

I feel like Jezebel has lately been more “bratty high schoolers share their hot takes on the news” and less “interesting perspectives on current events.”

“I feel like Jezebel has lately been more “bratty high schoolers share their hot takes on the news” and less “interesting perspectives on current events.” I’m becoming wary of clicking through on anything anymore because I feel like I’m fueling real trash rather than journalism.”

Not sure why a teenager and her family getting death threats warrants a cutesy headline.

The cop tells TMZ that the family has been paying the overtime for local police to watch their home, a practice that will continue for “the foreseeable future,”

There’s a lot going on right now with the police and, I suppose, influencers that warrants outrage. This isn’t one of them. Her family is paying police for extra staffing against a scary stalker. I can’t criticize either the influencer or the police in this particularly situation. The click-bait headline (“funds”),…

The phrase “touching a nerve” is really, really telling about how this dude thinks.

You should check out Street Parking. It is Crossfit style workouts - large online community. Programming is on point. 

You engage your core with pretty much any weightlifting (free weights,not isolation machines). But if you’ve ever watched a strongman(or woman!) competition almost nobody has defined abs because in addition to all that muscle they have a fair amount of bodyfat.

Have you tried Les Mills OnDemand? They’re all about strength, agility, conditioning, flexibility, improving the mind/spirit, etc., not weight loss. They have all different kinds of programs ranging from yoga, to cycling, to dance, to martial arts, to HIIT, etc. They really focus on the whole person and making you…

Maybe check out a free trial of the Peloton app? They have a lot of strength/yoga/stretching/running/HIIT etc. content in addition to their cycling stuff. The instructors are great, and everything is really well-produced. And while it is the epitome of fitness-industrial complex, the instructors only ever really…

This movie was so much better than it had any right to be. 

If anyone appreciates political posters, you might check out this site:

Yes voting. For President but also for commissioners and judges and sheriffs and magistrates.

Is this the second day in a row where this column has bashed voting? 

Is Reese Witherspoon’s comment bad? Seems like a good starter list to me

I would like to mention Richard Simmons. His “Sweatin’ to the Oldies” videos catered to the more severely obese and/or elderly who were too embarrassed and unable to go to the gym. At the time, this was a vastly ignored and under served market. He always struck me as a truly compassionate and kooky individual.

Dr. Oz and Dr. Phil and Dr. Drew are on national TV spewing a bunch of inaccurate “science” and pushing to reopen when we are nowhere near the end of this pandemic. All of those shit heads had to walk back their interviews because they were called out by the actual science community.
