Yeah, this new columnist...not so good. I was first turned off by the pseudo-superior tone with which he treated the article. Because you know what? Football isn't my thing either. But I don't consider people who watch football to be barely above the average troglodyte.
First thought: give me those gloves.

She...probably should've stuck to modeling.
I had something resembling this in high school. This is the first time I've seen it with a name. Started the way lots of eating disorders do: I casually exercised more (in a healthy way) and loved the response I got about the weight I lost (about ten pounds...not much since I was already pretty active) and the…
You're right. She did need help. She needed her kids removed from her by an agency who knew how to raise them without killing them.
An abuser she keeps letting around her kids. She may not be inflicting the injuries directly, but her not seeking care for those injuries — whoever they were inflicted by — is unconscionable.

If you're afraid you're doing something that's going to get your kids taken away from you, then you should probably have your kids taken away from you.
I used to loathe her in her Candy days. Just another Britney knockoff who was sure as hell NO BRITNEY, I thought.
Yep, totes a thing. And then Girl #1 usually hands him over to Girl #2. Unless, of course, she's awesome, in which case she says, "Yeah, we're almost done talking so just give us a few more seconds and he'll be all yours kthxbai."
The number one rule in a beauty competition — and in life, if you're me — is to stand the fuck out in a way that suits and flatters you. She nailed it.
It doesn't even look like tie-dye. It looks like it was made with Crayola markers. The 12-pack kind that only offers the basic colors.
The red sash really MAKES IT. Like MAKES IT and never lets you forget.
