I might be (under)aging myself here, but I had never heard of Lee prior. I spent the rest of the afternoon googling articles and looking at photos. She’s absolutely stunning. I loved the description ‘casual elegance’ in this VF article:

I’m apparently the lost Beale. I’ve never seen either film, but I feel like I have through osmosis. But I present this as evidence:

They have a billion dollar endowment!!!

Yes, the students will pay for it. The university already confirmed this.

Amen, brother. Got to strap a gun to your hip and defend the nation against those dangerous dishwashers; against bright children keening for higher education; against the people who are, at this very moment, fixing your plumbing, tending your garden, and painting your home.

Woah, Peter Beard is dreamy. And Jackie’s sister Lee is a knockout.

So I see she’s already had some coffee.

“Horton, Here’s a Poo!”

“The shitters are getting bolder” is a phrase I never thought would pass through my mind, yet here we are.

Carlton the doorman would have been up for cat food. Or anything for that matter.

It’s truly concerning when “being a scientist” is considered an ideology.

Little Edie’s (in)famous sartorial action is part of what makes her endearing, but loopy as it seems now (especially her head wraps) it wasn’t very far off the mark for the time. Early to mid-seventies was a wild time for women’s heads.

That’s incredibly depressing, but just from reading/watching a lot of politics-type news (and thus knowing a leeetle beeet of what you speak) I know deep down how right you are. Ugh.

Trump falling ass-backwards into a possible denuclearization of North Korea and the fucking it up with his own ego would be just the most Trumpy thing he could do, like a little fractal section of his whole presidency...

It really doesn’t even make sense as the food still would belong to Whole Foods until after the liberal gets through the line. Are they then going to pay for the liberal’s food? That actually seems like a joke that would backfire when they get home with vegetables they don’t recognize.

That makes no sense. At all. Have conservatives become so easy to stir up that you only have to throw out a word salad anymore? I mean <clears throat sententiously> back in my day, idiots took the time to truly craft some homespun idiocy.

A die-hard evangelical, claims to know all about Christianity, yet believes in hell which was proven a few centuries ago to be a big fat lie the Catholic Church told.

Probably benign kidney tumor, as reported. Though a week-long stay in a hospital seems a bit excessive...as someone pointed out in the Splinter FB post, this would be an outpatient procedure for any schmuck on normal American insurance.

If there is one organization I would not trust to take care of children in ANY circumstances, it’s the Catholic church

She didn’t give 2 fucks about things like “shithole countries” and was fine with many of the President’s gross employees until one went after her daddy. She was fine caring that fetid bucket of water until it spilled on her shoes, so she should save some of that outrage for herself.
