I will have to try that! I am in Minneapolis and my roommate swears by Nico’s.

I cried, too! Ten minutes before the end, my friend reminded me that Steve Trevor looks a lot like a man who played a sadly prevalent role in my twenties. The feelings were had.

I had to rewind and rewatch the Mo Collins part of that preview three times.

I just watched that, too!

He has no idea how to tell a joke. For this joke to work, we must believe the premise that Rand Paul’s neighbor would *also* be on the red-eye from Bakersfield to Nashville!

I don’t live in her precinct, but Andrea Jenkins has been a community presence for YEARS. She was out and proud long before we had more trans people on TV and same-sex marriage was legal.

The Puerto Rico benefit? That was like the Woodstock of drag. I think I’m still in shock.

I am Facebook friends with a sad sack of a man who had a new MLM thing going every month. He was most aggressive with Younique and I don’t think he sold a damn product. (Why, yes, I would love to buy make-up from a whiny bald man who doesn’t wear any).

I have never felt bad about buying Mary Kay. They’re one of the “good” ones. (and their stuff is good, too! Sorry, Grandma, and thank you for the awful Avon body wash you get me every Christmas)

Legit had this convo at the bar last night. Everyone turned to me and thought I requested it, but I don’t like Christmas until December! They were showing the original video and a friend of mine asked how come her cover is the best known. *sigh*

She is a co-writer on nearly everything. The only songs on her albums that she didn’t write are covers. Also, the reason “Hero” is so shlocky is because Mariah wrote it that way on purpose as it was supposed to be for Gloria Estefan.

The story by the Milwaukee reporter wasn’t just about people being drugged in Mexico at resorts, but about the discovery that TripAdvisor was deleting posts from people who had stayed at these resorts and posting about their experiences of being drugged/roofied and sometimes even assaulted.

I tried to extrapolate a little bit better in further comments. I know the Knox case had nothing to do with the Mafia. Burleigh asserts that it’s a general pervasive cultural effect on journalism in Italy, and she expresses it much better in the book than my scattered brain does.

I forget if it was Douglas Preston or not, but there was a journalist who really tried to dig into that story and he was completely silenced and lost his career and ability to make money in Italy ever again. Even though Knox had nothing to do with the Mafia, it was that pervasive kind of culture and fear of those in

Prince deciding to do a cover of current Foo Fighters song during a torrential downpour at the halftime show is everything. Man was a bad-ass.

I just read Nina Burleigh’s book about this! It illuminated for me how the story got twisted right away. Journalism in Italy is NOT what it is here, because the Mafia will literally kill you.

I went to a talk show in L.A. and half the audience was paid extras from an agency. It is still a dream of mine.

I am so excited for the day Bobby gets tickets. I am sending it into the Universe.

I do love that she has two Oscar nominations for broad comedy, but I pretend that one of them is for this movie.

My friend’s sister used to work at a big aquarium. They had to give the octopus their food in jars so that they could open them on their own; if they are just given food, they get bored and mutilate themselves!
