I’m imagining Lorna Hajdini at work saying, “see none of that was true” and her coworkers being like, “that’s too bad, we thought you were awesome for five minutes”
It is very sad that Erika Kirk watched her husband get shot and killed by a maniac. That shouldn't have happened and I'm glad the murderer was arrested and is being prosecuted. At the same time, she leads an organization I don't like that has a political agenda I would not like to see enacted. Other than that, she is not of interest to me and has no importance in my life and I'm content to just leave it there. The rest of the Internet, it seems, cannot.
I don't care about fashion but broadly it's fair to mock someone who behaves so crassly around something as sacred and personal as death. I won't accept 'everyone grieves differently' when you made your husband's funeral a stadium event and posted a video of yourself over his casket, celebrated your "high merch sales" days later, and you are dining out off it as a celebrity and using it to grift money. That, to me, is disgusting. She made a choice to enter and stay in the public eye and to monetize everything about that horrible tragedy. Stuff like this comes with that. If you don't like it, don't be a public figure.
Lmaoooo and I feel extremely bad for this JP Morgan lady and wonder if he just picked the hottest executive he knows so that the erotica feels plausible.
And while I understand defamation lawsuit is very hard here but Daily Mail treating JPMorgan exec and like paparazzi treating Britney Spears feels extremely sus to say the least
Absolutely there is defamation, but not on the Daily Mail. He clearly will be sued by both Lorna and JPM. This seems like a really clumsy extortion attempt, banking on JPM paying out to make it go away, but it’s so bizarre, I don’t think that was likely. If you are going to lie, at least be believable.
Could be a thing. How many of us are attempting to mod our GI microbiome via diet and supplements? Why not vaginal suppositories to "improve" vaginal flora? I miss the old days, when we all treated the vaginal flora as a rolling garden of loveliness - or didn't think about it much at all...
Iirc the alkaline food trend was for general health benefits, not specifically vaginal health. Of course, I wasn’t particularly paying attention to the specifics at the time because it seemed like bullshit, so I could be wrong
I’ve never seen a real live human whose actual face without cosmetic surgery fell into the uncanny valley, until that JP Morgan weirdo. It’s very unsettling.
Re the acidic vagina thing - I remember people trying to go “alkaline” in general at the same time I remember an outsize amount of talk about bleaching underwear; I also recall boric acid strongly coming into vogue and that does affect vaginal pH, just turns it down typically. Anyway, the healthyhooha subreddit doesn’t seem to show any kind of trend like that.
I remember the Alkaline Water thing, which ranked up there with the Oxygenated Water thing for stupidity. Don't remember women trying to make their vaginas go "alkaline" though. My wife doesn't either. She reminded me that for decades a generally acidic vaginal pH has been associated with fewer yeast infections.
Yes. I am in environmental chemistry and had to keep the lips zipped about “alkalinity” around health-minded family members lest I become dreadfully pedantic.
Haha! It's a trip, isn't it? You try to be polite, but there's always that thought in the back of your mind "just how gullible ARE you? Do you think your physiology is just a big Ehrlenmeyer flask, where the pH changes based on what your pour in? No other controls, modulations?" Maybe it's just me...
Decades ago, when I was released into the wild with a degree in Microbiology, I realized there was now a gulf between me and the world of folks who hadn't studied science. Not just that I now knew things they didn't, but that I thought about the world, interrogated the world in a different way than others. As a young man it was jarring - I thought it would be an interesting profession, no more. After working with numerous other scientists, it's not just me - it's a life.
The only actual benefit I found from drinking a friend’s alkaline water was that it tamped down the acid reflux I was experiencing as a result of drinking too much champagne the night before.
That said, it didn’t do anything that a few Tums wouldn’t also accomplish.
Dr. Jeanne Marrazzo -- previous head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, and current President of the Infectious Diseases Society of America -- could answer many questions about the vaginal microbiome.
For whatever reason, Melania has more expression in her face while contemplating the dead insect than I have ever seen otherwise.
And the Vajayjay Phrenology Table reads like “Fragrantica” which is an actual perfume website. Alternatively, a wine tasting chart. “Hmm…earthy, musky, slightly tart with hints of Sol de Janeiro.”
Re. the JP Morgan story. Are schemes getting stupider or is it just that we hear about all of them because social media? The only way this debacle makes sense for me is if someone is paying this guy a lot of money to completely wreck his cred with this amazingly dumb plot as a way to misdirect from a different scheme that they're pulling. Otherwise, feels very Trump Iran War in its ineptitude...
As an attorney who sometimes defends employment lawsuits for a large organization, people make absolutely deranged employment allegations every day. I'm currently defending multiple suits crazier than this one. It seems pretty random which get in the news, although seeming initially reasonable before going full mask off bananas is probably important.
Yup. This guy’s problem was he threw in too many too wild details. Fabulists who keep it simple, predictable, and vanilla with just a few bits of spice stand a better chance.
Ok, I give up. Resubscribing. I had no idea “1% vagina” and “fish head wife” had even happened. You are doing the Lord’s work, CHH.
I’m imagining Lorna Hajdini at work saying, “see none of that was true” and her coworkers being like, “that’s too bad, we thought you were awesome for five minutes”
I thought it was true until I saw the guy's picture.
Re 1% You did say your husband makes spreadsheets of what he likes to eat
I'll see myself out
Oh my God

I was feeling a little burned out on internet drama, but Asian fish-head wife with cannons is absolutely my catnip and now I'm all in again, baby.
I think once or twice a month is the right cadence lol!
Future new business: selling 1% vagina microbiome samples.
Can we collectively wince at that distribution? Like the red is clearly much more than 5%. I feel like Big Vagina Microbiome is hiding the truth

Yes, be a Kat person.

1. I have never ever heard “fish head” as a slur and I have no idea what ethnicity the guy’s wife is.
2. I stood up and cheered at “ACAB includes fashion police too”.
3. One of the Twitter exchanges you quote appears to be taking place between Eminem and the singer from AC/DC.

(She's also a riot. You'd like her.)

We should all know less about each other.

You sold a Kat book. I own it now.
