He was actually a huge philanthropist. JWs aren’t allowed to draw attention to it, but he gave huge amounts of money to philanthropies.

Oh my god, a person who thinks Aerosmith is better than Prince. I didn't know it was possible. Yikes.

Prince is one of those artists where, even if you didn’t love him personally, I’m 100% sure that at least one person you do love wouldn’t have become a musician without him. His influence was just astronomical.

Perhaps you need to purify yourself in the waters of Lake Minnetonka

I’ve watched that clip of “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” dozens of times, and until it was mentioned a few places yesterday, I had never seen the narrative that Tom Petty is pissed at Prince through this. They both give each other wry little smiles throughout the performance, and Petty clearly defers to Prince’s

We throw the word genius around a lot in regards to our entertainers. 99% it is undeserved. I’m not a massive fan of his, but even I know that Prince was a fucking genius.

God dammit.

Clinton is so damn lucky that nobody but varying shades of white dudes tried to run against her in the primary.

Fuck him.

He is not “all Muslim people.” He is one person, in one tiny school district, in one tiny police district.

Fuck that. This was the best thing that ever happened to this kid, and he was in no way ‘damaged’ to the point of 15 million dollars.

So, I ran into Tucker more than a few times, as some of my friends (one of whom went to Duke, where she met him) ran in the same circles as he and his friends when he lived here in Chicago; this was around...2003-2006ish. I was never impressed by him. I mean, if he hadn’t written a few funny books, he would have been

I read The Game a few years ago. One of my Dude Roommates had it, and was like “read this shit, it will definitely piss you off and also I know you and your sister are obsessed with the VH1 show The Pickup Artist.”

approximately three out of five nail salon employers admitted they did not maintain payroll records.

Furthermore, no one was challenging the veracity of the task force’s findings outright: as their protest’s placement made clear, they seemed to take primary issue with the Timespiece itself.

A while back, when the NYRB published the rebuttal. Nir tweeted out some images of ads from here research, and they did indeed say what she claimed. I don’t know why people keep brining this up. The Times certainly have people on staff who can read Chinese, and if this was something Nir couldn’t verify, her career

The City’s investigation would seem to back up the article. These protesters can pound sand.

These owners are disgusting. Just pissed that they can no longer exploit their own kind for financial gain. Who needs a nail salon to be opened 24 hours? That’s f-ing nuts.

God I loved her books. I would sneak them from my mom’s bedside table when I was a tween and read them.

I learnt about puberty from Judy Blume and about sex from Jackie Collins like a lot of bookworms. May you write the ultimate bestseller Ms Collins, wherever you are.
