Since distinctions do matter, Armenian Apostolic is neither Orthodox nor Catholic. It is its own thing, and has always been. There are similarities of course, much as Lutherans are similar to Episcopalians, but they are still definitively different churches.

Yeah... she completely stole the idea of the tissue paper garlands and tissue paper covered lanterns from Confetti System.

Oh, I never read that he has brown eyes. Just that he wears colored contacts to enhance the color. He seems to like playing with the rumor that he's Sinatra's kid, so I wonder if that has something to do with it.

Has anyone read Motherhood by Sheila Heti (referenced briefly here)? A book of auto-fiction (really a memoir) about her grappling with whether or not to have kids that - in the span of the five years or so covered by this book - relies upon the supposed dichotomy of mother OR writer but strangely, for an otherwise…

I read Sinatra had a vasectomy. Compare Mia and Frank- they actually have very similar features themselves. Also, Ronan has had plastic surgery and wears blue contacts.

Withholding her personal identification documents, “I told you the terms in which I can help you,” expansive gun collection (NBD), “I know how to defend myself. You drew first blood” in response to a simple request for separation.

Women are so dramatic and overly emotional about death threats.

I swear some people will click on any article that has a headline about abuse allegations just so they can immediately scroll down and accuse a woman of making it all up. 

You mean like a witness?

I think Mia Farrow and Frank Sinatra look alike.

The idea that a woman must give up what makes her a (traditional) woman to make ‘good’ art (I think?). Men may commit themselves to this pasttime with little recompense paid to society (note the difference in connotations for ‘bachelor’ as compared to ‘spinster’). But these same men are often considered artistic…

Ronan Farrow has position, power, money, fame, and resources... and he still BARELY got the news of a verifiable monster out to the public.  It’s chilling to consider how many Weinsteins are out there who are not being chased by a journalist in a position to catch them.

Actually it’s Kanye’s thing, because when they got together he get rid of her old clothes/style and gave her her current look. Reportedly he still controls her clothes and her overall look. The uber-tight all neutral colors thing is from Kanye, apparently.

Yeah, obviously it’s one of those things where, if the response is “. . .It took that to wake you up?”, the response would not be wrong.

Listen, there’s zero point to remaking a movie with one of the greatest scenes in cinematic history.

and colonialist, and, depending on which book version you’re reading, deeply racist

The meat industry is inflicting horrific cruelty at an unimaginable scale while destroying the planet in the process. But sure, the real problem is using the correct terminology.

Yep, nobody is pretending that Beyond Burgers, or Impossible Burgers, are healthy or unprocessed. They’re junk food, and more or less on a par nutritionally with beef burgers from fast-food outlets (more salt, no cholesterol). But they taste pretty good and the whole point is to reduce meat consumption, not to get…

*I*, sir/madam/troll, am a walking renaissance of epic parts beauty, ugliness, talent, tragedy, and week-old bong water scented with Chanel no.5. I radiate charm and carnage, and will always look somewhere between 21 and 3500 years old.

I believe it was in an article about Little that I read about one of his victims having been found drug into the woods, with her pantyhose and girdle pulled to her knees and the coroner attributed her death to natural causes. Fuck that dude and all the cops and everyone else that did not investigate that crime.
