I don’t find Tiffany Haddish as hilarious as half the world seems to. I think it’s amazing how she overcame the odds in the foster care system, but she’s funny the way Sam Kinison was funny-by yelling a fuckton. Yawn.

Seriously. Remember when people used to make small talk in lines and waiting rooms and on public transportation and in elevators...and...everywhere? I’m not a particularly social person, and don’t necessarily LOVE chatting it up with strangers. But I find that when every single person, every single place I go has…

I can appreciate this hot take

Meh. Parenting isn’t half as hard as Americans make it seem. Just takes boundaries and self awareness.

Sounds fair. Though perhaps you should remind them that just because you allow it for your class does not mean they can use it in all classes. Remind them that they must respect the wishes of each individual teacher. Them being kids after all, they may not understand the nuance.

I know it’s France and I’m typically against students having phones, but being in the US I would send my child to school with one because I experienced a code red in school years ago. The teacher ran out of the room to go see what was going on, the phones didn’t call out of the classroom, and just a few weeks before…

“Imagine a secondary school with 600 pupils. Are they going to put all their phones in a box? How do you store them? And give them back at the end?,”

I have nothing to add to this except this unrelated opinion: France, widely considered the mecca of the culinary arts, has *one of the most over hyped and disgusting food traditions in the world. With the exception of a crusty and slightly warm baguette, there is nothing appetizing about French food.

I call shenanigans. They’re in cahoots together to create social media drama and drive traffic.

Because Lauer was a white male who was moderately good at his job. Therefore it was taken for granted he was the ONLY reason the show was having any success it was. The women were considered fluff and therefore, replicable.

He’s made my skin crawl from the moment he appears on the screen. Even photos of him used to make me uncomfortable.

This photo feels like a personal attack. What... Why...I don’t deserve the pain of knowing this exists

For actresses there’s the added burden of being in a very competitive field but needing to appear as though you’re just the girl next door.

Well, thirty years ago is right around the time shows like Oprah started discussing anorexia. It must have occurred to models and their publicists that even if they weren’t really anorexic, the diet necessary to keep an unnaturally low weight sounded the same as the one people with eating disorders imposed on…

Right. And while a public proclamation of disordered eating as a tool is certainly fraught, I can’t help but appreciate a bit of transparency about how celebrity bodies are usually made.

“Beanie Feldstein” is the best name I’ve heard in a long, long time. It’s the name we need these days.

I know its exhausting but social media behaviour has to be educational and a bit gentle when trying to change the status quo. Its going to be harder than maintaining it and anger is powerful too for motivation but not for convincing others. Nobody is socialized to be progressive. We have to get there.

She seems genuine. Most models get into the industry as teenagers and might not be cognizant of this kind of thing (and probably didn’t go to uni for gender studies or media criticism 101).

I have to say, I’m not here for all the criticism being thrown at Lima for just now realizing the struggle many (most) women face regarding their appearance. This is a good thing. Can’t we just take it as that?

He vacations at a hotel where i worked and disgusting suns him up perfect. Plus he wears those orange crocs on the ski hill. Double yuck.
