Heynongman, that was my first thought too!

He looks like the human equivalent of a Bic lighter that won’t stop asking you out on a date to Hooters and then makes you pay.

I like how some celebrities are like, “We want to keep our kids grounded.”

My husband and I use Simple, which has a great way to manage dual finances. You share one joint account, but are each assigned an individual account (that is associated with the joint) but not accessible by your partner. It also marks who makes what purchase/deposit, and allows us to create long-term goals.

I fell in love at 37 and married at 40, and I have no advice. I still have no idea how it happened for me, other than right place, right time, and couldn’t begin to tell anyone else what to do. I’d been alone forever, and it I got lucky. But I can’t judge someone who is alone at 40 or 50, or beyond. Because I know how…

I’ve been waiiiiting for this premiere. When I read the book, I had the startling realization that my grandfather lived on the Lower East Side (where the story takes place) during this time period. It really changed my perception of his childhood.

I work in Times Square, and it’s a strange morning at the office. People are fine, if a bit unsettled. It’s certainly a reminder how working in high profile areas can put you at higher risk. I have anxiety, and something like today makes focusing on work a challenge, tbh.

Same here. Curtains open at night (not in the bedroom, though) because I find the darkness outside peaceful. Closing them feels claustrophobic.

I was told more than once that I wasn’t in love because I wanted it too much. And that when I no longer cared, it would happen for me. Which was infuriating, because that’s not at all how it happened for them. But somehow the universe could sense my desire and was cock-blocking me.

As I told my sci fi-loving brother, “Anyone who has seen even one episode of Star Trek knows you have to study another planet’s protocols before a summit.”

When you get excited that you can identify the infusion pump in someone’s Twitter photo...

I like Nanjiani a lot, and I’ve listened to the podcast he does with his wife — whose illness is actually the basis of the movie. She has an immunodeficiency, so the rare disease community is on the edge of their seats to see some real, honest representation.

I’m personally boycotting the movie — the author does a huge disservice to the rare disease community.  I’m saving my money for Kumail Nanjiani’s movie, The Big Sick.

I was on a train this morning in the tunnel to Penn Station, when the train stopped and the conductor announced, “Something has happened in the tunnel in front of us. We don’t have any further information at this time.” WELL. After 2 recent derailments and countless delays due to safety issues, my anxiety exploded. …

I’m getting married in five months, and I’ve lost count of how many people have asked when we’ll start having children. People, I’m over 40 and have expressed no interest. Take a hint. Sigh...

I’m heading to DC tomorrow morning (bus leaves at 4:24 a.m....yikes) and I’m excited and nervous too. I’m new to protesting, I don’t know what to expect, but it felt too important not to go.

Is this legal? I mean that honestly — could he be investigated for inciting a foreign power to influence a U.S. election?

Don’t you hate it when women are women-sized? UGH, so gross.

Was she actually waiting for these photos? Otherwise, not sure I understand her impatience.

It’s not like Kate has a “Monday dress” and “Monday through Friday Work Shoes” like some people I could name. (Me.)
