Yeah, even my comment draws attention to the fact that she likely has little say in most aspects of her life, including where she lives/how her home is decorated. There’s no personality there. 

Britney seems to have hired the same interior decorators my rich childhood neighbours did circa 1989.

He’s *really* committed to that douchecanoe hairdo. Like he’s the ZZ Top of indie dudebros. 

More worried about her mom’s influence than Sia’s, honestly. Sia is...eccentric. Her mother sounds likes the worst type of stage parent. 

Don’t go. If your kid is old enough to be getting married, you’re probably at least in your fifties or sixties, right? Florida isn’t safe at all, but it’s especially not safe for people in high-risk groups. If your daughter really wants her family there, she will keep postponing it. 

Everyone is an asshole in this story, but the host is still the biggest asshole for a) throwing the party in the first place b) sitting on her positive status for even a minute.

Yeah, I thought it was much higher (that’s still high to me!) but then I remembered that the yearly reports tend to conflate cyclist and pedestrian deaths. I remember that at least one year recently we had the highest or one of the highest cyclist death counts in North America. As someone who walks to work, I feel…

Fair enough. I’ll take your word for it, as I don’t see myself sitting all the way through it for re-evaluation purposes any time in the near future.

I would love to cycle more, but I live in Toronto and it just isn’t safe here. (And I know this post is going to bring all the Torontonian cyclists out of the woodwork to try to convince me otherwise, but our number of cyclist deaths per capita seems pretty damn high to me.)

Rich is one of the main reasons (despite recently unearthed past transgressions, according to the comments) I stick with Jezebel, but yeah. Classic Juzwiak. 

It was a little trial and error (I seem to have found masks that suit me now) before avoiding that problem myself. 

I think in most cases they really don’t know, sadly. See also: pulling off your mask to use your cell and using your dirty hands to pull it back up when you’re done. 

I’m not Black so I can’t speak to the Black experience where I work, but from what I’ve seen, the union can protect you from a shitty boss (in as far as keeping your job is concerned), but it can’t encourage promotions and opportunities for Black people over white people who continue to fail up into management…

True, but isn’t she still supposed to be a sympathetic character? (I haven’t seen it since I was a kid.)

C’mon, Megan — you got your own income, you don’t need his! 

Middle-age begins at 40. She’s 32. He’s 49.

Whenever a man in his thirties or forties has his own age (or slightly higher) as his upper limit and, say, 25 as his younger limit, you know that 90% of the people he contacts are on the younger end (or even younger than that). This is also backed by data (Google the OkCupid study from a few years ago).

I think Joan is based in California. 

Totally pro-union — I benefit tremendously from membership in mine — but it doesn’t necessarily prevent racist bullshit like this from happening. 

In addition to being racist AF, it’s also four hours (!!) of absolute scenery chewing.
