Richard III, definitely.

OK, I just ordered that book on Kindle. Thanks for the rec. The only kind of racism I’ve ever heard in person is the “you should know better” easily-reprimanded kind. November made me realize how sheltered I’ve been from this kind of mindset (or as my friend said as I sobbed my eyes out, “Holy shit, you don’t even

There’s clearly a 10 year or so age difference... I would buy it if you told me they were cousins, but confusing one for the other is absurd. And of all of the traits that women can have, isn’t age one of the big ones for our doddering 45?

Why is Katy Perry miming oral sex at the camera? Why did Miley Cyrus do the same thing how ever long ago? Do pop stars have to signal that they maybe could be lesbians but actually they’re not as some kind of graduation ritual? (I mean I guess that’s kind of Perry’s thing).

My grandmother is currently in a hospital in Houston — it made sense not to evacuate her. She is very elderly and injured to boot. It’s a very large building with medical staff on hand, many of whom have been sleeping there to be sure that everything runs smoothly. Obviously many people lost family members this way

Mmhmm. I got a pixie cut around 2002 after a breakup. Minus the platinum though.

Of all the things happening, this is the one that crushes me the most. It is unfathomable to exile a young person from the only country they’ve ever known. I’ve traveled a lot and lived in a lot of different countries but if I was told I could never come home again... it’s just inhumane, good choice of word. Being

I can. not. stand. when characters look at themselves in the mirror and then describe themselves... to themselves. No one does that. No one ever does that. Why do people keep writing it?!

Yeah I guess I didn’t quite articulate it but that’s what’s odd to me about this... she should have outgrown this by now. But they say, for example, that when people get addicted to drugs it halts their emotional development at whatever age they were when they started using. Maybe addiction to fame/money does the same

That copywriting is the most cringeworthy I’ve seen recently.

“skullfucked by the long dick of the law”

Taylor Swift is a coming-of-age blog broadcasted to the entire world. Which means, really cringe-worthy and very self-important. I can completely empathize with her on what she’s trying to do emotionally while also thinking this song is so bad that I have already forgotten it even though I just finished watching the

Pink is really dragging Purple and Green down. They make great points and then she comes in with the lol and weird capitalizations.

And this should be called what it is — workplace harassment. She was there doing her job.

I lived in Chile at a time when I knew I 100% did not want a baby yet. I wasn’t very worried about the abortion laws because I knew if something happened I could go home to my family and receive medical care there. But several months in to dating my otherwise progressive boyfriend I discovered that he was also deeply

I suppose it’s a pick your poison situation. Chandler is bitter and mean, Ross is whiny and entitled. I accept declaring either of them the worst!

I haven’t made any claims about what did or didn’t happen (how would I know?). Just curious about how that particular theory would play out. I’m definitely not investigative journalist material because I would never be brave enough to get on a sub with a guy who I knew to be in any way morally ambiguous.

Also the golf cart rentals from the Trump golf courses.

The thing I’m wondering about is why she would get on the sub if she’d uncovered something explosive about him? And if she had new info I can’t imagine a submarine is where she’d confront him. If it was about the reporting she either had some incredibly brave plan or didn’t think he knew what she knew.
