Listen, when ANYBODY tries to rip off Prince, nobody wins. This sad, half-hearted (half-assed?) attempt, though. Yikes.

I am sure this special is super well done, and I did watch that clip, and Oprah is absolutely asking the right questions.

Please be gentle with yourself. I’m so sorry that was done to you, and I know how hard it is to face it, even after a long time. You are in my heart and my thoughts. 

I didn’t know how profoundly After Neverland was going to impact me. Really wish I hadn’t watched it. There was childhood sexual abuse in my family that I thought had been neatly tucked away but this film ripped that fucking wound right open. I doubt I’ll get a good night sleep for a long while.

In the golden age of music videos, Madonna's Like a Prayer was an absolute standout (and also one of her best songs).

Right? When I am stuck on a flight and some baby is crying nearby (or even if one is just there) and some parent does the whole “I’m sorry” I make a point to actually just say “I don’t care. It’s a baby. We will all live. Have a nice flight.”

Seriously. I invested in noise cancelling headphones (a joy on planes, also without crying babies) and always bring earplugs.

Eh, that’s a bridge too far for me. I was once in the window seat with a toddler and a dad in the aisle. Dad took a sleeping pill and passed out for the entire 11 hour red-eye. I had a meeting the next morning and basically spent the entire flight trying to prevent this kid from fucking with me and stopping him from…

This is not a particularly hot take, but I have 2 kids. One of them is 9 months, the other is almost 4. Guess which one is the most annoying to fly with? (It’s the older one).

Honestly IME adults are the fucking worst. The worst flights I’ve spent have always involved entitled asshole adults being rude and annoying. And adults seem to be the ones that start fights after being asked to stop doing something, I’ve never had a 7 year old curse me out or threaten me for asking them to put their…

You can’t tell a baby they’re being rude. You CAN tell a 3 year old they are. 

YES. I was just thinking that I would 100x rather have a crying baby than blaring an Elmo cartoon on your iPad for the whole plane to hear. I just want people to observe the rules of polite society on an airplane. Crying babies aren’t really on the list of things that make for a miserable flight for me.

I would much prefer the parents of 3-13 year olds to march onto a plane wearing a sandwich board that reads “I’m aware of my responsibility to make sure my child does not kick your seat, throw food, or otherwise disturb you. Please let me know if I’m failing” 

My guess is that he stopped at the first line and thought the other guy was gloating at Cohen’s misfortune.

Wait...someone described Michael Cohen as a man “with no reason to lie or obfuscate”, and Don Jr. retweeted it? How are these people so fucking bad at this?

Yes, it’s about the breastfeeding v. formula judging, and there are safety issues (what if this mother has a communicable disease or is taking meds, etc., that are unsafe?).

Not only am I pissed about this because of the consent issues, it’s also a health hazard. The baby could have been allergic to a number of things the day care worker ate beforehand. Anyone who ate strawberries, nursed their child and found themselves holding a baby covered in red spots knows that allergens are…

Mostly yes, but you can transmit some diseases through breast milk.

Right. I mean, if the provider was like, “Oh my gosh, everything was totally insane today and your baby’s formula spilled and the backup was all gone and she was super hungry and it was the first thing I could think of to do, I’m so sorry I hope you’re not upset!!” okay. There are conceivable circumstances where this…

Look, there’s nothing wrong or weird or bad about people breastfeeding other people’s babies. We’ve done it since the dawn of humanity (wet nurses, anyone??) It’s the fact that she did it without consent that feels so gross. It would be like if you kept kosher or halal and your day care provider just fed your kid regul…
