The second season of Fleabag was maybe the most perfect six episodes of anything I’ve ever watched. The only thing that seemed like an obvious misstep (confession booth makeout) ended up being the catalyst for one of the realest and most heartbreaking finales of the year. PWB is undeniable. Also cast Andrew Scott in… Read more

Thank you. I just finished watching it and my reaction was, “this is pretty good.” Not, “this is incredible.” Fleabag is incredible.  Read more

Fleabag is the only show I’ve ever cared enough about to wish another season despite knowing there’s a solid risk of it being subpar since Series 2 closed it off perfectly. I’d let Phoebe Waller-Bridge write the next 50 years of my life and my untimely obituary just to experience another bit of her huge talent.

Oh fuck off. I’ve never watched GOT but I’ve seen him in plenty of other roles and he’s a phenomenal actor. I do know that like it or not that show wouldn’t have been NEARLY the success it was during its run without his charming ass in it. So that’s literally the only GOT Emmy I’m OK with.

“Look, we get it, he doesn’t… Read more

Fleabag won almost all the things. That’s all that matters. Read more

Shaky cheese gets better when one recognizes that it’s essentially vaguely cheese-like salt. I’ve found that one of the best uses for shaky cheese is buttered corn on the cob. Read more

“Maybe you don’t need to endure sleep-based torture.”. Maybe not, but pretty soon it will be inevitable. If it’s not the waking up every hour or 2 to go to the toilet, it will happen as soon as the baby is born. Read more

I slept on my left side (with every pillow in the house supporting me), simply because it helped inhibit the lava-spitting acid reflux I would experience otherwise. (Kiddo was born with thin wisps of blonde hair - so much for that wives’ tale.) Read more

Sleep however the fuck you can, because you’re going to spend that last month or so waking up every hour (at most) on the dot to pee anyway.  Read more

“The show’s most frequent listener these days might in fact be Ray himself. He said he still listens to the show “all the time,” mostly to hear his brother’s voice and remind himself about times they had together. To remind himself of the jokes they shared. To remind himself of the good times.”

Thanks Erik, I didn’t… Read more

Car Talk taught me the importance of accurately replicating mechanical noises when describing a problem...and I don’t think their contribution to modern dad joke technology can be understated. Read more

booooo. this show is charming, funny, and subtle. i will miss the Baskets family. Read more

If you’re down with ZG’s schtick it’s worth your time. It’s pretty low key and there is a real world darkness behind the screwball comedy. Louie playing Ms Baskets is sweeter than you’d expect. I believe he’s portraying his own mom and it’s more nuanced than just a wacky guy playing a lady...although i get where you… Read more

In the post we’re commenting on, a lot of the #boymom stories seemed totally typical of infants. Read more

mom of 2 girls here. we’re past dirt and worms (for the most part...11 y/o still gets pretty grimy) but we are waaaay into sports for the forseable future. Welcome to the PARENT club, lol. Read more

I’m a mom of a six month old boy, but I’m not a #boymom. Not only do I not have time to read mommy blogs or get into mom culture, but it seems very limiting for mothers to build their outward identity around motherhood. I mean, yeah, I spend like 80% of my time when not working or sleeping with my baby, but at least I… Read more
