This Week Has Given Me Outrage Fatigue Syndrome
I haven’t updated since Monday and it’s because I’ve been so overwhelmed by everything happening this week that I haven’t been able to write. It’s been such a newsworthy 4 days and every time something is settling down, something else happens. You know when you have so many thoughts that …

The Disney Princesses Were Younger Than I Thought
As you may know by now, I love Disney movies and I love talking and writing about them (see my posts on Disney Music is Everything and Disney Loves Single Parenthood and Princesses Who Make Piss Poor Decisions). And just because I’m a fan of them doesn’t mean I think …
Diane Warren Tweets Note About “True Greats” to Kanye West. WELP!
