Dying hours before New Year's Eve ensures that Betty White will have more toasts made to her memory on the day she died than just about anyone in history. She always was a master of timing.
I think it should be noted that Meghan did her duty, stayed in the background, gave nothing to the press, and largely existed as a silent bystander and yet the media have been having a field day with her all day, every day, for a week now.
I keep reading these hot takes about how the little girls smashing their baby dolls at the beginning of Barbie is some sort of shockingly subversive image but all it tells me is that you never paid attention to how little girls play. They wreck shit when they feel like it
When powerful white men use words like lynching and witch hunt to describe their perceived persecutions, it's because there are no historical analogues to white male persecution. There's no term for it because historically, there's no such thing.
This is about as perfect as you'd expect from this casting, but if they really want to do her right, she should end the movie with crunchy hair and mismatched shoes, like every Barbie my sisters ever had.

's new video "You Need To Calm Down" made me cry. No shame to admit. Didn't have that type of support growing up. Can't speak for the entire community, but I personally appreciate it and thank Taylor Swift. L
Hey, just a reminder that if your response to Colton Underwood coming out is a condescending "We knew," you're scaring closeted people and dismissing what was almost certainly a hard journey. Be kind and non-snarky.
Apparently Lena Dunham is a huge supporter of women coming forward with sexual assault unless it’s someone she knows personally and has held her up and filled her world with love.
I've been keeping my mouth shut on the Kate stuff because it's all so bizarre and hard to parse, but I think the royal press is disgusting for trying to turn this into a M&H story after their own lack of journalistic standards was exposed. They're grotesque.

No trees or meadows were moved or swapped, this is the image straight out of camera.
Also that is a Jacaranda Tree, not a willow tree.
Good for Harry and Meghan. Everyone's gonna blame this on her, but between Charles' plans to slim down the number of working members of the family and Harry's utter contempt for the press, something like this was always going to happen, regardless of who he married.

I think the discussion about Swedish people not feeding their guests is HILARIOUS. It's like watching Counselor Troi explain some alien cultural practice to an increasingly appalled Captain Picard, except on Twitter

The craziest thing about this week is discovering that I, a childless homosexual male with extremely limited exposure to such things, know more about breastfeeding than most men and also Bette Midler
As Pete Buttigieg drops out of the race, folks on his left who want to get more digs in as he leaves would do well to remember that queer kids are watching and have been all along. Don't shit on their self-worth for the sake of one more burn. He did something amazing.
I truly don't care what you think of Pete's politics, but I do care a lot that the 9-year-old boy on this stage is living in a very different era than I did three decades ago.
I make no predictions about where this goes and there are lots of reasons to be pessimistic, but right now definitely feels different from any time in my adult life. Something broke open this time.
This is very clearly not a last-minute choice of dress so it shouldn't be read as a response to anything else, but one of the greatest things about Lizzo is her refusal to retreat, to recede, or to make herself small in any way
I can't put my finger on why, but as a childless person, it's moving to see Kamala discussed as a stepmom, auntie and sister. You don't see women in politics talked about that way.
This is what the majority of Oscars viewers want to see:
1. Movie stars
2. In expensive outfits
3. Handing out awards to people who make movies (including other movie stars).
Throw in some musical numbers, a tribute to the dead, and some film clips. Done. Why is this hard?
This fabulous thread supports my long held belief that it is INSANE no one has made a movie about the recording of the Rumours album. What actress wouldn't kill to play an enraged Stevie Nicks at the height of her powers?
Two margaritas deep, I heard a song playing called you can go your own way, and I was like wow they are really singing their ass off. Looked it up it’s two band members breaking up I am in TEARS! YOU CAN GO YOUR OWN WAY 😭😭 watched the live performance. he can’t even look at her
Anderson Cooper can go fuck himself, we had to endure this monster and his sadistic, narcissistic, unempathic, predatory and immoral behavior for four fucking years. I don’t need to see or hear him ever again. Silo or no silo. L
President Trump said that the armed school resource officer who stayed outside during the school shooting last week in South Florida was either a “coward” or “didn’t react properly under pressure.”
So, is it just me, or does it kind of feel like the billionaires all teamed up to systematically dismantle journalism as we know it for the past decade?

I'm gonna try to contextualize Armond's story on

from the perspective of a middle-aged white gay man -- as he is, as I am, and as show creator Mike White is. Spoilers, of course. I've known a lot of Armonds.

I feel like we should give Margot Robbie a half-hour special where she models all of the Barbie tour outfits she didn't get to wear because of the strike. You know damn well they had a Peaches & Cream planned
"I beg your pardon," the ghost of Jackie Kennedy whispered as she strolled the halls of the eerily silent and empty White House residence, "But you never should've fucked with my Rose Garden."
So sad to hear about Willie Garson. He had several all-time great gay lines on Sex and the City that we've quoted dozens of times over the years, this one the most:
I will never, ever, ever stop pointing out that the Obamas were criticized far and wide for "disrespecting" the presidency by wearing tan suits and sleeveless dresses.

Happy 89th Birthday to Julie Newmar, who almost singlehandedly resurrected a mostly forgotten character called Catwoman, who hadn't seen the light of day in over a decade when the Batman show debuted in 1966. Michelle, Halle, Anne and Zoe have her to thank for making her an icon.

AOC on the cover of Vanity Fair. The clothes are estimated to cost $14,000. So happy that AOC is upholding the long established hypocritical tradition of Socialists who believe Socialism is for poor while they enjoy the fruits of Capitalism.
I think this is a deliberate subversion of the idea that royal wives must stand behind their high-ranking husbands and I think Harry was completely aware of the implications and on board with it
