Great! I’ve always wanted a love story about an abusive relationship that is a spin-off of a horrible movie!

It’s not a love story if one character is a physically, mentally, and emotionally abusive asshole.

If not for the big names attached, I would assume this is some Lifetime nonsense. That I would definitely watch.

“Maybe I have overlearned the lesson of staying calm, biting my tongue, digging my fingernails into a clenched fist, smiling all the while, determined to present a composed face to the world.”

We’ve all been there. You either put up with slimy creep making you feel uncomfortable and hate yourself for tolerating his bullshit later. Or, you make a scene and have everyone tell you to lighten up because having the rampant sexism in our society pointed out makes people uncomfortable. It isn’t polite to demand to…

I heard someone call a group of his supporters “the 5th avenue crowd”. As in they are the ones that would have stood by him if he shot someone on 5th avenue.

They need to be separate.

No shit they are beefing.

You can’t make a horror story out of Trump’s election that is worse than what is actually happening. I’m supposed to give a shit about some rich white lady who is afraid of clowns? Thanks, but I’m sticking to the horror stories of families who are living in fear of being torn apart and deported, for starters.

If she’s married to Kevin James, it’s completely believable that she would fake her own death.

Maybe Kevin couldn’t wait.

Divorce is so unseemly. Somebody has to die.

THIS. She’s not acknowledging that women have agency in how they choose to present themselves. No, those choices don’t happen in a vacuum, but acting like all women simply seek male approval is shortsighted. Yes, men have sexist views about women and their appearance, but it’s up to men to decolonize their minds. Why…

I explained it to her in these terms: you are wasting time

It bugs me that she sets up men as the ultimate standard for acceptable behavior: “Your brother is not going to waste any time doing this...”

She can say that AFTER women and girls stop being judged, ranked, and treated primarily on how well they conform to society’s standard of beauty. This shit doesn’t happen ina vacuum, and I’m tired of people lecturing women as if it’s all in our heads.

Zadie Smith’s comments irritated me. I can’t disagree that complicated contouring seems like a waste of time for everyday wear for me, but the dismissive tone of it all rubbed me the wrong way. Saying to your daughter, “You must leave for school by 7:50, so I suggest you learn to get ready to leave for school in 50…

Make up is also a way of building community for lots of young people (men and women), a form of self-expression, an artistic outlet... it’s a lot more than a waste of time.

Counterpoint: putting on makeup makes me feel magical and beautiful and the process is soothing. Especially since I suffer from depression, and sometimes putting on a bold brow or power lip is the difference between me sitting at home crying versus going out and facing the world. Sorry zadie. Love your work, but don’t…
