I’m as much a tree-hugging, equality-loving red meat non-eater as California stereotypes say I am, and I’m having a hard time getting too worked up about this.

It’s one of the big titles at TIFF next month, but an October 12 opening doesn’t exactly scream “awards contender.” Venom and A Star Is Born come out the week before, and I’m guessing at least one will out-earn First Man the week of the 12th.

If they’re flat-out saying “long hours,” they mean “we expect you to be available 18-20 hours a day, seven days a week.”

Pretty sure that at this point, MoviePass is staying afloat on water wings of pure spite.

I’ve been on the job hunt many times in my life. My biggest takeaways so far:

I’ll be heading to that general neck of the woods next month, although not for hiking or scenery. My mother will be recovering from knee surgery, so I’ll be a good daughter and visit my folks in Bellingham for a couple days. Will probably drive down to Portland afterwards to visit a friend. Or maybe I’ll hit Portland…

Hey, I’m crushing on one of those too! He’s a bartender, not a waiter; and I don’t think he’s a glassblower, but he’s an illustrator and does some metal work, I think.

I think it’s because a not-insignificant portion of the people in line take forever to complete their order. Maybe they need to know the nutritional value of sofritas, or want to sample all the salsas, or stand there trying to decide between a salad and a bowl. I was in an almost-empty Chipotle last week, and the line…

Zoom in on Trump Sr.’s interactions (and non-interactions) with his son.

It’s released by Pinnacle Peak, which the website describes as “an Arizona-based film company bringing inspirational and aspirational movies to theaters near you.”

Probably because this is literally a children’s concentration camp.

I can’t take credit for it, but I’m happy to spread it!

I haven’t switched myself, but I’ve been on Zoloft forever and have had several friends with anxiety who’ve switched over. And of course we all know anecdata is the best data!

Part of me is like “if she’s going to an event then she’s alive” and the rest of me is like “check the fingerprints”.

I f’loved my Mirena. It’s the only thing that made a dent in my insanely heavy periods. I never lost mine completely, but I was very happy to have them knocked down to something manageable. And the whole “no babies” thing was nice, too!

My high school graduation was at noon on the first day of summer in an outdoor arena. There were about 700 graduates, plus a whole lot of speeches. Hell, yeah, I was wearing shorts and a t-shirt under my gown! I wore a white t-shirt with a stick figure dumping a can of something green over a globe and the caption…

I feel you. My mother and I get along okay, I guess, but the best thing that happened for our relationship was her and my dad moving a three-hour flight away. It’s a lot easier to deal with her when I just have to send an unsentimental e-card, rather than show up to brunch or dinner with a physical gift and have her…

Hey, you do you! (As insurance permits, anyway.) A good friend of mine thinks the way you do, and she is very happy with her decision to have a hysterectomy. I primarily decided against a hysterectomy because I wanted to avoid another major surgery. All my trouble was in the uterine lining, so I figured it was worth…

Yep, a volleyball. My uterus doesn’t do things halfway.

Jessica Chastain, Marion Cotillard, Penelope Cruz, Fan Binging, Lupita Nyong’o and Theresa Rebeck working on one thing?
