Enjoy and revel in it. I’m in my mid-40s and normally mistaken for late 20s, early 30s. I take certain joy in clapping back at people who treat me like I’m a clueless kid. 

I never was able to get away with a fake ID when all my friends were doing it because nobody would have believed it for a second. I am 33 and still get carded for rated R movies and super glue at the craft store.

I remember when this happened, and yeah that is exactly what it was. They kicked her to the curb so fast because she made them look like idiots. Talented 30-something writers are a dime a dozen in LA. But the exact same talent + OMG SHE’S ONLY 19 somehow made them look special and oh-so-hip-and-trendy. She exposed…

I agree and I think that part of the problem is the delusional perceptions people cherish about creativity. We want to believe that talent is magic, rather than something that grows and develops and matures with experience. We’d rather hire a 19 y/o magically writing like a seasoned 32 y/o, than an actual 32 y/o with…

I always thought this woman got a raw deal and admired her moxie. The studio sang her praises to the skies when they thought she was 15 years younger, and all that talent didn’t magically dissipate after the reveal. They got exactly what they wanted in productivity, insight, and ratings, so if firing and badmouthing…

I can respect the hustle as well. If they couldn’t tell the difference between real teen writing and fake teen writing, then did it really matter if she was actually 32?

This explains where they got the plotlines for Maeby Funke on Arrested Development.

P“I was just following orders.” Gee, why does that sound familiar? *

My husband just spoke to his old “friend” who works at one of the major family crossing points in south Texas. He was very cagey on the phone and even asked my husband if he was taping him. He tried to blow my husband off and when pressed about separating children he said “What am I supposed to do? The union said…

I am oscillating between total numbness and murderous rage from one second to the next.

Eeeeevilllll. Imagine intentionally saddling your child with something you are too lazy to take responsibility for. That’s fucked up. She should be striving to set both her children up to be self sufficient, and if that means providing extra financial resources to her child with down syndrome, then that’s what she…

“Oh god! There’s a cat in that burning building!....... Ah! I know what to do!” *Throws another cat into burning building* “Now they won’t be alone.”

What lunatic has a second child just so the first doesn’t have ‘to face an environmental collapse alone.’????

The love that I have for my children is the most powerful thing I’ve ever experienced. But every day I want to apologize to them for bringing them into this dying world.

Anything positive with puppies is always the entirely best PR move possible.

JFK was given a dog by Russia. It was the puppy of one of the space dogs. He was supposedly quite fond of it.

Right? How often lately does Russia do something that A) makes the news and B) isn’t batshit insane? Wookitizfaaaaace.

Check #BrusselsLockdown on Twitter. Police have asked for a complete media silence about current policy movements in the city center, and people have started to flood Twitter with cat pictures instead. It’s surreal and brilliant. Bon courage Belgians!

Damn Russia, that’s actually very sweet of you...

I want a puppy, I want a black female pug though. Sigh, one can only dream.
