THIS THIS THIS. I was pushing around my son like a BOSS after having my body cut in half for the second time and literally, store clerks would ask me “Was it a c-section? Or natural?” Well, boo boo, what you mean is VAGINAL, not natural. You can deliver through your vag and still have an epidural and pitocin and all…

Ok but mouth sounds are a human rights violation.  I adore my husband and he generally has good manners.  But last night he was eating corn on the cob like he was a fucking typewriter.  And slurping is just non-negotiable.  Wait. to drink. your coffee.  Just wait.  Give it 3 minutes.

Eep, sorry, Jane. I just felt like often her commentary (I particularly remember a Debbie Downer-inspired “wah wah” that made me cringe) often stated the very obvious and brought down the intellectual caliber of the reporting. On the plus side, I loved that she was reporting from her own milieu of a burned-out…

If I could work my will, Jez would revive #cotd just to honor this.

That’s actually a fair point.  I just don’t like her and this fits with my perception of her.  But you’re right that the call was almost definitely not hers.

Yeah, Sofia strikes me as that particularly heinous breed of born-rich person who, because money has no meaning to them, thinks a pittance should be enough for anyone else.

If you love to hate MLMs, go listen to The Dream podcast right now.  The host is hella annoying, but the content is so good.

I think he’s white and straight and male. Unless I’m forgetting someone, he’s the only one meeting all of those criteria. My guess is that voters who thought Hillary’s gender was an easily surmountable factor are very, very spooked because we feel like we do not understand Trump voters at all. Because for him to be…

I think it’s two things. There’s a reason to be irked at Jez for reporting that Lyft is giving formerly incarcerated people jobs. They’re giving them rides to interviews. By Jezebel’s rationale, I am apparently employed by the MTA since I’ve taken the subway to job interviews.

And for a while, you could get a t-shirt that said “Ted Cruz is the Zodiac Killer” with Ted’s face colored in with all sorts of cryptographs and the proceeds went to West Fund.  I’m reasonably sure Ted sued to have it shut down (I’m too Mondayed to go check that right now, so sorry if I’m libeling him) but I can tell…

Can we talk about the scene in Ep 1 when Mary Louise takes the little balloon of Madeleine’s assertive, I-have-too-much-self-worth-to-let-someone-talk-to-me-like-that-and-I-will-righteously-address-it moment and takes her little pin of unhinged, you-don’t-scare-me-Madeleine-ness and just pops that shit in Madeleine’s…

I do it with a husband who grew up in NYC and technically has a driver’s license but definitely shouldn’t. It’s an indictment of the DMV that he even possesses such a thing. So while we have two drivers on paper, it’s about 3 minutes of him vacillating between 45 and 80 MPH 6 times (Me: “Ugh, just use cruise control…

Newp.  Not at all.  I’ve made the drive several times and the “quickest” way is across I-80 almost all the way and it’s still a long, boring drive.

You think she’ll throw her artificial leg on the table to prove a point? God, I hope so.

Exactly! I fly from NYC to Detroit pretty regularly and we routinely go up significantly into Canada. Fun fact, the earth is curved, meaning straight lines aren’t always the fastest if you have 3 planes instead of 2 (planes in this case being the geometrical feature, not the flying kind).

Columbia employee, here. You know what I’d fucking love to see, sometime? Columbia not continuing to employ someone who it fucking knows did deplorable shit, knows it for decades, and only severing ties either (a) when there is public pressure and publicity and/or (b) when that person voluntarily steps down. When my…

I think his son doesn’t talk to Nicole Kidman.  I can’t remember about the daughter.  As far as I know, Suri is still cool with everybody.

I’m...not sure how it’s Kim’s fault that Kanye was in love with or lusting after her while he was with someone else.  That seems pretty squarely in the Kanye’s Fuck-Ups column.

He’s got that dad strength.

I like Courtney Love, or at least I don’t dislike her and I think her villainization through the 90s said a lot more about how this society thinks and talks about women than it ever did about her. But what once seemed like a very sincere, life-defining love of a person who died tragically has started to seem a bit…
