My dad died just over a month ago. He LOVED Kenny. I know this because I know the words to every Kenny Rogers song ever put on tape due to long road trips as a family when young.  I cried both for him and Kenny today. 

Oh fuck, Kelly, you are truly the best writer of all time for Jezebel. I usually read your stuff for the fun of it, but you hit on my love of soaps now.

True story: I saw Moon Over Parador at a pre-release screening at the Academy*! I remember absolutely splitting my sides laughing and loving all the big stars in small roles (ie: Charo in a rare straight-acting part).

Even funnier when it’s a south american dictator.

There is a funny but smart take on this theme. Secret Service hires a presidential doppelganger for an appearance (while the president is off having an affair). While this is happening, the real president has a stroke, and the doppelganger has to keep up the ruse. The twist: the First Lady hates her husband and falls…

I carries more weight with me because she did - get that paper Martha!

I actually listened to most of this because I was in the car, even though I spent the entire time screaming at him. The idea that “someone” rearranged his security council and he doesn’t know anything about it is pathetic. When asked about his contact with the infected Brazilian official he insisted not that he never…

There’s something I find remarkable about my own capacity, even three-plus years in, to underestimate the absolute reckless incompetence of this administration.

Yeah, where’s all those men who were so into a Warren presidency in 2016 go?

This morning, European Central Bank President Christine LaGarde gave an address and press conference to explain the Euro Zone response to the current crisis. She was superb, as always: measured, informed, presenting practical solutions, and imparting a sense of calm to anyone listening (at least that ship’s tiller is…

But he’s got vision, and definitely doesn’t make the same film of a stand in of himself fucking far younger, at times barely legal, women who are typically “damaged” in some way over and over and over and over...

I’m in full support of people taking their shoes off when they go into someone’s home, but have to admit that it’s all fun and games until you go to someone’s house for a baby shower and the Manolo Blahniks you’ve left by the door get stolen by another guest. Then you have to get married to yourself just so you can…

In theory I don’t mind complying with a request to remove my winter boots or shoes that I happen to be wearing....BUT every time I’ve done that my hosts have provided nothing for me to put on my feet. This means I am forced to walk around all evening in thin socks, often on cold tile or wood floors in the middle of…

Biden has put his name to more harmful laws than any Republican over the course of his career.

I think you’ret touching upon one of Sanders’ biggest problems: He’s not a Democrat but he wants to be the Democratic nominee for President. It’s like a Methodist running for Pope. You can’t sit there and tell voters that that you’re not one of them, but hey, they should vote for you. It’s not gonna work.

Bernie strikes me as the opposite side of the same trump coin - little more than a cult of personality with a rabid fan base with whom you cannot reason. 

You act as if black people aren’t aware that, in 30 years, your boy hasn’t written a single piece of successful legislation. In three decades, what has Sanders ever achieved? What has he ever done that improved the lives of black people?

I work for a great company that gets it.

This whole section basically lines out why this is total bullshit:
