When a friend of mine was in prison, she decided to try to learn Latin, and I sent her a big Latin book. A great novel which was art-related was “Fates and Furies” by Lauren Groff; I strongly recommend it, and so does President Obama, who listed it in his 12 book recommendations. Google Obama book club for his faves.

If it’s real rape, the female body has ways of shutting down when slut clothes are placed upon it.

yes, I for one have enough hate in my heart for both of them.

The “next time around” is this coming Tuesday. He’s up for reelection in the same election that we’re having our primary here in Calif.

Yes. The one time i found a young woman so drunk she had passed out on the ground, you know what I did? I talked to the person with her (who was drunk and belligerent and clearly not able to take care of the passed out woman), and then I called 911. What I did not do: lay a hand on her or leave her there where someone…

And especially because Rachel has such a fucked up mother, Rachel is looking for Quinn to be a maternal figure, and no matter how manipulative and sleazy Quinn gets, at least Quinn isn’t trying to psychoanalyze Rachel and give her more meds. compared to Rachel’s mom, Quinn is altruistic and caring.

yes! me, too! i sent my hairdresser an email saying, “You have to watch UnReal and tell me whether I should get Quinn’s haircut.”

I feel the same way; I watched Unreal in two days. But my thinking is that although it’s such a great binge show, it is such a critic’s darling that it WILL be spoiled if you don’t watch it as the season proceeds.

It’s driving me crazy that the headline says “Aubrey.” It’s correct in the article, so I know the writer knows better. Please fix it! I’m not even that OCD, and it’s killing me.

Re: “the interviewer (unidentified, but doesn’t seem to be Mark Goodman).” Mark Goodman says at the beginning that MTV’s news dept. wrote the questions but Prince had his manager read them to him.

But you neglect the UCC! The Uniform Commercial Code is their angelic darling they cite to get out of everything.

Exactly! And didn’t poor little gothy Laila get offed because she didn’t showboat? You gotta get your giant personality out there to stand out in a crowd of talented drag queens! Not to mention that “Snatch Game” isn’t a team competition. The only time I can think showboating could be destructive on RPDR is during a…

You are completely right: that matador look would have been a great one for a drag queen to cover. I was thinking of eighties slutty Madonna, with all those bracelets in a bra and miniskirt with big hair, but I’m an old. Matador Madonna would have been better.

I think they are warm to Thorgy & her schtick, but they just loooooove Bob. Thorgy gets lots of praise from the judges. She just can’t manage to win. But aside from Michelle hating on Thorgy’s makeup, they are fans of Thorgy and have lots of positive things to say.

The biggest deal of being a mother is not how you give birth. Unless you’re a New Jersey prom teen who leaves the baby in the bathroom and goes back to the dance floor. C-sections, I don’t wanna judge.

there’s a huge difference between wanting a natural childbirth & refusing to take your severely ill baby to a pediatrician.

Same experience here. I lost valued friendships over this. Everyone hates the messenger.

I’ve gone to a bunch of Silicon Valley parties, as I am a particular kind of Silicon Valley trophy wife: I have an advanced degree from Stanford, which impresses the kind of smart Silicon Valley people my husband associates with. (They look at me and see a middle-aged chubby woman, and then they hear about my degree,…

There’s a long, rich history of women fighting in Russia. The last Tsar had an all-woman battalion guarding the Winter Palace. For a while there was a belief that the ideal tank team would be a married couple, because they would communicate really well together and give their lives for each other. I did a huge…

And before that, used as an argument against integrating black and whites together.
