Mallory and I are in Sedona, you’ll be hearing more about that later. We got our auras read! Mostly, though, we’ve been eating and sitting in companionable silence gchatting each other links about serial killers while we ignore the natural beauty that surrounds us.
If you have not yet read Jia’s rant about “Rude,” OR SEEN THE VIDEO, WHICH CHANGES EVERYTHING BC HE IS SO PUNCHABLE, please run over to The Hairpin AT ONCE, we’ll wait for you:

Buncha quilting women have a SUPER POLITE CONFRONTATION about misogyny. (Thanks, Kate!)
At the current time, I would like to endorse the purchase of The Deadly Dinner Party, which is mostly medical stories about food-borne illness, but also contains other things like “aquarium finger.” Mostly, just literally do not eat anything that isn’t heavily processed, and if something says “Refrigerate After Opening” THEY ARE NOT JOKING. Throw out your minced garlic in oil if it’s been sitting out! Never drink apple cider from an adorable small family-run orchard! Do not drink comfrey tea, and ESPECIALLY do not gather rando leaves that look like comfrey but are in fact foxglove because you’ll die within hours. Okay. Go eat some Fritos and Sierra Mist and be at peace.
It’s possible (and a lawsuit contends) that “Happy Birthday” is NOT in copyright! Which would mean an end to things like Liz Lemon singing it in German and all manner of comedic workarounds.
AHP explains how TMZ happened.
I love Roger Angell so much, and now that he’s 93 I panic whenever I see his name on Twitter. It’s safe to look.
ROXANE. Roxane:
Smith’s bullshit was galling on so many levels but for women, this is not a new message. Our job, throughout our lives is to not provoke men into beating us, raping us, cat calling us, whatever. Men, so many people would have us believe, simply cannot control themselves so it is our job, as women, to not only live our own lives but make sure men don’t hurt us.
No, I actually absolutely do want to see Tywin Lannister giggle, THANK YOU.
