Her shoe broke. The designer had one job! Only one job!

No. I do not like this relationship between Rih Rih and and Travis because he is a DICK. Story time.

Jesus, hopping on one leg in heels must be tough.

Do you want to know where that famous dress came from?

It seems like Givenchy’s worst decision since this:

BBC News for straight news. I also like Al Jazeera English and regularly look at AP’s news website. These are all relatively straightforward news sites—you won’t get a ton of opinion-type columns. I prefer that. If I want commentary, I’ll look for it on NY Times, the New Yorker, WaPo.com, and sometimes Salon and Slate…

There was an iPhone in the Portapotty this afternoon. Perched sadly on a pile of excrement and soggy toilet paper. I wonder how long the person stood there looking at it, debating as to whether or not to reach in and try to grab it. I would have taken a picture, but no way was I risking it.

Last week on SNS I posted about my father’s impending death, and so many of you replied to me with your own stories of dealing with dying loved ones. It was more helpful than you can imagine. I just wanted to update and say that my dad died early on Sunday morning, about 10 hours after I posted my story here. It was…

Well this is a story of my grandfather at a moment of great family sadness and pain.

I thought we had moved past this tongue shit.

Or maybe for if you have any interest in cultures outside your own?

So that’s what the dime was for! I'm so obtuse.

When I took my daughter for her annual check-up on her 7th birthday the pediatrician — a woman — said “oh she’s got a nice little figure” when she bent over for her scoliosis check and her wee, tiny, little girl hips appeared. My daughter was oblivious but I was floored that the Dr. was unconsciously evaluating my…

Is this Jewel or is it future Jennifer Lawrence???

Grown men used to hit on me when I was that young as well. I didn’t *look* like I was 9, though I didn’t look like I was 21 either, so there’s that. My mom used to tell me I was the only little girl in the neighbourhood with curvy hips. I know what it was like just being a kid trying to walk to school. I can’t imagine…
