WatchKathy Salerno made a very funny video about something you didn’t even know you were afraid of until RIGHT NOW. I am in it for several seconds with Dan Hodapp but those seconds were enough to secure us lifetime membership to a very WASP-y country club.

a place with
its own harvests.
Or that in
time’s fullness
the diamonds
of patience
couldn’t be

The best "New Girl" review I have read. →
There are a lot, I know. But I like this one a lot:
At this point you might be thinking: so what? Who cares if film and TV audiences are repeatedly asked to view highly attractive women as “ugly”?
