Look, cults manage to do good work sometimes. They pick up broken people and put them back together, people no one else wants to bother with. That doesn’t make them not a cult. It doesn’t make the shit they spew true or not dangerous.

I used to not wear leggings in public when I was out of college, despite my shapely ass, because I was afraid of judgey bitches like the author. But now that I have hit the 30 mark and have a fat, dimpled ass I care far less than I did when my ass was conventionally shapely. I think she’s just misreading the levels of

Okay but can we talk semantics? Is it because I am an old that these are yoga pants:

She’s got it all wrong: Sweatpants are awesome for regular life, but terrible for working out. There’s too much fabric, so increased friction. Plus, when you sweat, they take forever to dry. Sport tights/leggings are the far superior choice for working out, from a practical POV.

Professional art and design historian here.

The artist was in a real tough spot, you have to admit. She had to paint Michelle’s portrait, but also leave enough wiggle room so it can be used to paint Melania’s face over it in a few years.

I really enjoy the portrait of Obama; the colors are so vibrant and as a result the man himself comes off with the kind of inherent warmth that we know he exudes in real life but that a serious portrait would likely fail to capture. By painting him with a very serious expression against a background of vibrant green

I was coming here to say the same thing. Why do we hate her again? Her music isn’t my style but I don’t have the energy to hate on her. Has she done something awful to warrant the hate?

A quick highlight for folks who may not know: The National Sexual Assault hotline can help folks process trauma even if it isn’t something recent. I know sometime the word “hotline” can make people think that it’s for only immediate crises; if you’re rethinking something from the past and want safe and supportive

I blame the absence of fathers in the white community. Where is the personal responsibility???

God, talk about someone who makes the same fucking thing over and over. “Oh, my marriage is problematic! I like someone I’m not married to! Oh no, I’m awkward around women!”

I think it makes the most sense to focus on the men who do the actual wrongs, as opposed to the women who worked with them and “had to know.” She and her fellow actors didn’t harass or abuse anyone.

The problem is, it being an open secret is part of what keeps people from talking. Everyone knows and no one cares, so who do you talk to? Dave Chappelle (who has said things I consider wrong) said something I consider right about the path out of apartheid in South Africa: “People in a corrupt system aren’t

trumps going to disown Eric, adopt Stephen, marry Ivanka, kill Jared and fuck Bannon.

Maybe we could just stop using the suffix “-tard” as an insult, period?

Yeah, typically when you tell someone you don’t want to have sex with them you have a reasonable expectation that sex is off the table until further notice, not that they’ll wait a few minutes and fuck you anyway.

Or maybe just ban work parties? Or have them in the afternoon, as a thing to do instead of working instead of a thing to do during what should be your free time?

Prince Harry is actually the result of Diana having an affair with Arthur Weasley.

I’m taking a six-month sabbatical so everyone’s attention switches to something else and I can come back and have all the power and money and creative freedom again. Thanks.

I’m horrified, but also kind of impressed by your mother’s devil-may-care approach to stealing road food and serving it to the people she loves.
