Man, I love most of the women on SNL right now, but I cannot get into Cecily Strong. She made a terrible first impression on me with her Get Out the Vote Mimi Morales character, and I think her jokes on Update are hit or miss. I think she's funny when she's performing in the right sketches, but I feel like there's an…

That makes sense. I thought I had heard a few months ago—from a mental health professional—that there's some debate right now around whether it's its own diagnosis and an actual personality disorder, or a complex manifestation of PTSD. And I know Marsha Linehan (is she still an authority in the field?) has said that…

So, BPD is an issue I have feelings about. A lot of mental health professionals today are questioning its validity right now; from what I understand, it's often used as a catch-all diagnosis for women exhibiting symptoms of comorbid conditions. I've also heard it's the only personality disorder in the DSM from which…

I didn't mean to imply that I think she has ADHD. I should have been clearer. I have sympathy for her struggling with issues that doctors may have not fully diagnosed, especially in the public eye. Diagnoses are so tricky, and I think sometimes labels can help. In my case, it's refreshing to know that my perpetual…

Interesting. I would imagine the gluten was also wreaking havoc on your digestive system—is that the case? I'm all for naturopathic care and avoided pharmaceutical meds for years, but seeing a psychiatrist was a last resort that's worked out pretty well for me so far. Food intolerance issues would cause me problems…

The "flakiness, pathological tardiness, and refusal to adhere to a ... schedule" remind me of myself pre-ADHD medication. I'm the same age as Lohan and I was only diagnosed last year. I used to mentally eviscerate myself for those flaws (as well as for my impulsiveness and destructiveness). It really sucks to be a…

I came here just to post that same thing! I practically didn't blink throughout that whole article, my eyes were so wide in horror and fascination. (And then I went on a google frenzy looking for more longform articles about captive chimps and found this Esquire piece that someone above has linked as well.)

But when Kim and Kanye were first dating, wasn't the catty gossip narrative that she was really into him and he was not at all into her? Like in that paparazzi video where he didn't hold open a door for her or something. I don't know. I'm really tired. I think they do love each other, which to me is very sweet and…

But... but... stovetop popcorn is the food of the gods!

For like half of season 4 I thought Daniel Faraday WAS Charlie. I.e., I thought Dominic Monaghan was portraying Daniel Faraday, and in some inevitably convoluted LOST reveal we'd find out why Charlie had to die for Daniel to appear. I only realized my mistake when my friends who watched the show remained curiously…

His films, as I read them, are not about endorsing sexual assault.

Well, she did try to drown Emily that one time. And she is super controlling. Whyyyy does PLL have the worst representations of relationships ever?!

I can muster no opinion on the black hole of vapidity who calls herself "Emily." She could have been such an interesting character! Instead all she does is look pensive and make poorly conceived choices.

I noticed the same thing! I cannot imagine LL playing Scattergories, either, so I have doubts about the veracity of this list.

Well, people react to trauma in different ways, as Hello_My_Lover has pointed out. This line of thinking—she still listens to his music so he probably didn't rape her—kinda freaks me out. It's something like criticizing a woman for staying in an abusive relationship, no? Obviously different situations, but they seem…

I know, and it used to break my heart, because they are the BEST fruit.

I just want to know what they talk about. WHAT DO THEY TALK ABOUT? Diamond brûlée? Vacation homes on the moon? I feel like their combined wealth is so great they exist in a different universe.

I used to have the same problem with berries because they're good for like two days if you buy them at a supermarket, but I learned the most amazing thing last year: if you put them in a mason jar, they'll last for like two weeks. Works with salad greens too.
