I have a horrible feeling that the producers knew exactly what they were doing here- that they’re going for a Sharknado-style cloud of hype about how awful this is- and it makes me feel kind of sorry for Abigail Breslin. At least you know Tara Reid was in on the joke...

All they have to do is get Steve Bannon to tell him there’s no Wifi and he won’t question it.

Why do people assume that jokes making fun of Trump and Putin are making fun of homosexuality? The joke isn’t that two men being in love is laughable, it’s that Trump and Putin are “in bed together”- that they are so closely and privately aligned, they might as well be intimate. If we had Kellyanne Conway instead of…

Uh-oh, everybody: we’ve got a real contrarian on our hands over here! A true iconoclast, here to shake up our mundane existence! How dull this article would have been, without that rare, insightful commentary of “I don’t like this thing that everyone else is in this place to talk about!”

My understanding is that unless they impeach Trump and Pence at exactly the same time (which is not likely) the next in line would actually be whoever Pence chooses as his VP. At that point, congress would also have to approve the selection. Anyone know if there are enough dems in congress to at least block a terrible…

You weren’t making any claims about whether or not a higher-paid coworker would enter the ring for a lower paid coworker. You were claiming that the higher paid people would dismiss the complaints of the lower paid, and that the lower paid would resent the higher paid, and no one would ever get mad at the higher-ups…

I’ve definitely said to a coworker “You deserve to make more than you do/as much as me.” Defending your own pay rate is not mutually exclusive from wanting others to make more...

Even for pretty slices, you stillwouldn’t peel the avocado. Open it as described, cut slices into the flesh, using the skin as the stop for the knife, then use a spoon to scoop it out. Once you’ve scooped it out you can just fan out the slices. I’m just trying to figure out what avocado is hard enough that you’d use…

Can’t believe I haven’t seen this posted yet:

Yeah you’re right. I’m not sure why I was so irritated by this at 3AM, and I’m struggling to find the right word. “Rich” isn’t it, and neither is “comfortable,” but something about struggles in this story (besides their sister dying) seems a little....soft? Given all the other stories that HAVEN’T been told yet. I’m…

Look, I loved the book as a kid. I visited Louisa May Alcott’s home! I loved the movie with Claire Danes. But do we really need yet another “slice of life” movie from the perspective of rich white people? I mean I’d even be fine with it if there weren’t already perfectly decent adaptations out there. But given that we …

I also tend to give much higher percentages (though I never go below 20%) at diners and cheap restaurants; partly because I’m not that rich, but also because I hate that those servers barely scrape by, while upscale servers can make serious bank- for doing essentially the same job. So even if my tab is only $10, I’ll…

Between the Cosey Fanni Tutti article and now this one, you guys are really nailing it lately with music coverage. More articles on women in obscure musical genres!

Straightforward, I think? Like, instead of silently fuming and acting snotty with your roommate who never takes out the trash, you could say “Hey, do you mind taking the trash out more often? I feel like I’m always doing it.” Some people think I’m a bitch, but most people seem to appreciate my approach. There are one…

Yeah I really don’t understand this. I’m not rich, have no credit cards, and my parents don’t pay my bills. But I have no interest in owning property, having kids, or driving. I live in a shitty apartment and don’t see a dentist. This leaves me with decent savings, and I still have enough money to spend a couple…

Yeah waiting tables was a stupid example. I just used it because it’s what most of the actors I know do to fill in the gaps. Restaurants seem to be fine with hiring them, because most people that go into service do so because they have something else that makes unpredictable demands on their time, and serving has more…

I’ve got nothing against Busy, and it’s not that I think she’s living beyond her means ( I mean, whether it’s instagram or acting, she seems to making enough to support her lifestyle) but when you live like this:

Whatever any other freelancer does? Live within means that can be sustained by your earnings? Wait tables? I mean I really don’t care if actors shill products- I’d do it too, if I could- but it’s a little silly acting like there’s simply no alternative to hawking crap on instagram for cash.

I mean, if only 5% (that’s a guess, I haven’t read the book) of the female population can reproduce, doesn’t it make sense that the ruling class would set them aside for their own purposes? If it were generations down the line I could understand that there’d be fertile women out there who weren’t in someone’s claws,…
