“What he’s been through”? What exactly is that? Criticized for his art? Wow, I’ll tell the hundreds trans women of color that get murdered every year. I’m sure they can empathize with a multi-millionaire comic’s inability to be an ass without any consequences.

The belugas at the Shedd Aquarium pose for pictures. They’ll be swimming around, doing whale stuff, but the second anyone near the rail pulls out a phone they swim over, poke their heads out of the water and smile. It’s the best.

I have lived in Chicago for 25 years and this is only the second time I’ve heard about taffy grapes. And both times it was in an article talking about what a Chicago thing it was. I feel like this is some elaborate prank.

On the contrary, I would prefer that he be totally sincere about his transphobia rather than doing this as a publicity stunt. At least then he would be living his beliefs (fucked up as they are).

By “rehearsal”, they may mean set up for a shot. At some point, you need to put the real prop in the actor’s hand and perform the scene exactly like you would when you’re filming. You need to see what the shot actually looks like, including discharging the firearm, so the actor knows what it looks like, sounds like…

I am so unbearably tired of luxury brands that will rush to make children’s collections of $500 cashmere onesies for 1 percenter’s babies to barf on but act like making women’s clothes larger than a size 12 is impossible, and the very idea is beyond the pale.

Can we get an ID on the person in the first photo? I don’t know who they are and they are stunning, so I’d like to know their name.

My mom would just guilt me into turning myself in. She’d love me the whole time that she held me accountable.

There are so many other options these parents could’ve taken. They chose a terrible one.

Even if she was the one who left, who simply walked off and told him she never wanted to see him again, he drove 2000 miles home without telling anyone where she was or telling her family what he knew. Even if he is guilty of nothing else, which I sincerely doubt, he put her family through hell wondering what happened…

Am I the only one who remembers “Great Balls of Fire” starring Dennis Quaid and Winona Ryder? It was a biopic about the ‘love story’ of JLL and his too-young-to-consent cousin. It feels really icky now.

In the articles I read, his family said he really came alive when he performed and his mind went into “professional” mode. In the few times I’ve seen him since his diagnosis, he was a delight and still commands a stage. He genuinely loves performing.

He’s the last of his kind — the final crooner from the crooner age.

My brother is a finance director for a local town. When I need help with my taxes I call him. That’s what family is for: free professional help when you need it.

Ain’t that the truth? How dare she ruin “Thelma and Louise” by being such a smug asshole??

This is an old defense for harassers (whether sexual, racial, etc.). It’s not personal; I’m like this with everyone so it can’t be this specific form of harassment. Ultimately it’s the “I’m an equal opportunity asshole” defense.

I’m Damon’s age. I’ve known that word was harmful for 30 years. There is no way that someone in a creative industry doesn’t know it’s harmful and why, since many people in creative fields are LGBTQ+. He knew. He just didn’t care until he thought he could get something out of a heart-warming tale of his daughter…

Can we leave his weight out of it? He’s a terrible person who happens to be fat. There are also millions of really awesome people who happen to be fat. Being fat doesn’t make you a terrible person; being a terrible person makes you a terrible person.

Thank you! This is an occasion that calls for linen. And if y’all think he looks good in velvet, you will swoon dead away if you see him in well-tailored linen.

Valerie Taylor is and always will be a total badass. I’ve loved her since I was a kid.

Agreed. I remember seeing one episode where David Hyde Pierce did some of the most amazing completely silent physical comedy I have ever seen — ironing a shirt.

Without him or any of the other cast to temper it, why would I want to listen to Kelsey Grammar be a pretentious blowhard for 30 minutes?

Right? The kid is 7. At least let him wear a polo and khakis so he doesn’t look like a knob.
