Option 4: Self-centered stupid racists

Guys, remember when Lindsay Lohan, the person whose FRIEND threw the phone CASE into the water, said “the black kid did it” when she was arrested after hijacking that car?

Are those dogs ok

Fatphobia + misogyny+ a relatively homogenous career field, i think =(

Damn if post-PR Christian Siriano hasn’t won me over. I thought he was a brat and I really didn’t like his designs on the show (per another comment elsewhere on the site, I despise ruffles), but his attitude about this is absolutely correct. And Leslie looks great. Glad she did something with her hair other than those…

Yeah I don’t mind a bit of fringe and asymmetry but there’s entirely too much of it out there in plus sizes. Trading out like 50% of the embellished shit for base building block wardrobe pieces would be nice

There needs to be a name for the “you’re not acting the way I think you should act, so naturally you’re wrong/lying/guilty” logical fallacy. If there isn’t one already.

yes. exactly. i will never wear a ruffle, they aren’t my style, but the over embellishment in general is a problem. and weird cuts. it all looks ridiculous. i just want to look dignified, is that so much to ask?

thanks for the suggestions! i have a good collection of dresses from asos and, weirdly, old navy at this point, but i’m always looking for more options

If it has an absence of ruffles, that alone will make me like it.

Yep. I was talking to some dudes about the Cosby thing last year when it was still relatively fresh and they were describing him as a monster. I said no, he’s not a monster, he’s a person with too much power who too many people decided to see as something other than a person with too much power. Then I mentioned that…

I was hoping it would be his hands. Dear god, I was hoping. That poor girl. I hope this beast of a man gets what he deserves, but I doubt it.

I think this is one of those status symbol things that even attention-starved jerks like Entourageguyforgothisname and Paris want to believe they need

It’s a weird name but my first, middle and last names are in the top 10 for most popular names in the US and let me tell you, there are many times when I wish my parents had been more creative.

“running up that hill” is one of those songs that i wish i’d never looked into because kate’s explanation is not what i wanted it to be

some republicans

HOly shit. OK so when I was growing up, Newt was the rep for our district in GA but before that a lawyer friend of my father. I liked my father back then but despise now. I regularly say that my father resembles Dick Cheney both outside and in, but is not as smart and morally principled as Dick Cheney, which is…

Engagement, for some, is a performance rather than a step. Might as well make sure people see. Marriage too. I’ve been writing a lot about weddings for work and the lengths some people go to is really stunning.

My GOD. People like this...I just do not understand how people can be so heartless. Why is it so hard for some people to extend even an ounce of compassion and kindness to other people? I have dealt with people like this on a much lesser scale in the course of dealing with my mental illness, and it is unbelievably…

I love the way that first sentence is constructed, Clover. Excellence
