In the Nirvana song “Serve the Servants” there’s a line, “I tried hard to have a father but instead I had a dad.” I think it’s apt.

A loving relationship with your child is something you earn, not something anyone is entitled to.

I 100% agree. I haven’t spoken to my father in years, and I know he complains to people about how his kids are so mean and don’t care if he dies. He won’t acknowledge that it’s his awful behaviour that has led his family members to cut him off.  

I misread this as “defriending yourself” and It was so zen-like a statement I felt my brain unfolding like a kaleidoscope.

Hey, thanks. I’m sorry you had to do that, too. And I’m with you on the sweet relief that comes from the phone not ringing.

I don’t want to tell someone how to live their life/deal with their parents, but Meghan please accept one call because this is really bumming me out.

I can think of approximately zero times that slagging someone to a tabloid has improved a relationship.  Also the fact that he keeps complaining about how unfair it is that he can’t make money off her makes me just a teensy bit skeptical about his motives here.

No, Meghan doesn’t have to do anything regarding her family to make you or anyone else feel better.

Kate looks besotted with baby Louis, which is, of course, how it should be.

Hell no. I returned it to the front desk on our way out of the resort. Looking back on it, I’m pretty sure he was a lot older than I was. Which is bad. 

How do teenagers manage to find the weirdest and cringiest things to do in the name of romance? I’m sure he thought he that was an absolute stud move, too. What a bonehead.

I feel you, Pete Davidson. When I was 16 I went on a snowboarding trip to Lake Tahoe and some dude I met there who wanted to get in my pants gave me his drivers license as a romantic gift. IT’S REAL ROMANCE, YOU GUYS JUST DON’T UNDERSTAND.

I’m so glad it did. You are one of my favorite commenters and I’d miss you terribly if you were gone. Tell that to that fucker in your head.

Thank you so much for the kind words. I appreciate it. <3

I’m catching up on my Vanity Fair issues and I’m reading an article about how the #MeToo movement is totally bypassing Wall Street because the culture there is so freaking toxic for women. It’s depressing, but so many women quoted in the article say things like “you have to choose a side, be ‘one of the boys’ or go…

I mean, women are starting to - but every time they do their reputation is trashed - if not entirely, at least a little. 

Everybody loves to rag on the guy, but doesn’t he actually always try to follow through on this stuff? I mean, he’s actually building an underground tunnel to alleviate LA traffic and he had his engineers custom build a submarine to get the Thai soccers kids out.
