I’ve been stuck in the house for 3 days with what may be the flu.

I think Kate can help out. She can somehow manage a wine glass and clutch with one hand totally free.

When I first read that it was a broach I thought it was some sort of abstract piece of jewelry, but from looking at that picture it’s a figure of a black slave’s head. So yeah, that was not some sort of clueless oversight. That woman knew exactly what the fuck she was doing and she was sending a message.

To be fair, I think that’s implied and the language goes past random curses and into the realm of slander. 

I was a criminal lawyer who handled some juvenile cases. One of the main things prosecutors held over defendants’ heads was being charged as an adult. I saw so many kids have to take crappy deals that would have otherwise not been accepted to avoid being dealt with in adult court. It’s a patently unfair system on par…

This entire situation is just really sad. I wish I had faith in our system but I’m sure this girl will be headed to a facility that is understaffed and underfunded.

Sweet Valley High always described the twins as a “perfect size six” and this is the standard embedded in my head over 30 years later.

Daily Fail is, naturally, presenting a very different read on Moore’s comments which to me read more about being comfortable about being 5'10" than being a size 6:

I looked it up, apparently any kid older than TEN who is on trial for murder or attempted murder gets tried as an adult in Wisconsin. Let that shit sink in for a minute.

Robert Pattinson and Emma Watson might be a couple

I’ve always had a soft spot in my heart for Mandy Moore. I’m glad is doing well and seems happy.

I’m just here to say that Robert Pattinson was really sweet to my dog once, so in my house, we respect Robert Pattinson. Emma Watson has never interacted with my dog, but she seems like a nice enough young lady. I have no objection to this potential couple.

I will also be rewatching Apollo 13 for an additional, unthinkable, number of times.

I give parents who travel a lot throughout their children’s lives a pass. I can’t imagine having to put children of different ages in a new school system every year or so. Also with her kind of money, professional teachers are surely involved so it’s more of a one room schoolhouse situation than homeschooling as we…

I get it man. I have a dirty mouth too. I say things like “that is totally fucked that that guy said stupid sexual shit either in front of or directly at some female underling / model in his studio’” and “what a stupid fucking cunt for for being a horrible motherfucker to work with.”

It gets my goat that celebrities, and some regular people, feel like they have to apologize for keeping pregnancy news to themselves. They should be able to deny it till they’re ready to share. Ideally, everyone would mind their own business but I know that’s too frigging hard for some.

Does anyone else miss Tweet Beat and Midweek Madness?

I just scrolled down to suggest that, in the age of Trump, we really have no need for further psychological warfare. We could, however, use some examples of people overcoming difficulty through calm, sane consideration; uncovering the etiologies of our deeply-rooted cultural pathologies; and overcoming implicit…

Man, Elise was awesome.

truly nothing will top the exquisite perfection of the very first season, though.
