Whelp, guess I'm done with Arrested Development.

In February of this year, Jeffrey Tambor was officially fired from his Amazon series Transparent for allegations of sexual harassment on set. But Tambor is still welcome at Netflix, where he’ll reportedly appear in the next season of Arrested Development.

Hear Hellbound Glory, Tanya Tucker's Gritty 'Better Hope You Die Young'

Erin H

Goddamn, Tanya Tucker is a BOSS.

Country legend Tanya Tucker would be the first to admit she knows a little about life on the edge. Her rebellious spirit and classic, raspy honky-tonk vocals add an extra layer of hillbilly grit and grime to the just-released "Better Hope You Die Young," the latest from country outlier Leroy Virgil, a/k/a Hellbound Glory. 

The just-released tune presents a whiskey-and-fiddle-soaked

Can This Marriage Be Saved? Yes, If You Fuck a Robot (According to This Expert)

by Tracy Clark-Flory
Erin H

That robot does NOT want to fuck you.

Sexbots are going to single-animatronic-handedly save the institution of marriage, according to economics professor Marina Adshade. In an interview with The Star Vancouver, Adshade speculated that instead of replacing marriage, robots will “complement” it by basically acting as humanoid side pieces.

Dick Cheney finally gets his wish

He became a real boy?!?

Police Say Man Robbed Bank to Impress Taylor Swift 

by Hannah Gold

You know what would really impress her? Killing someone she hates. Maybe a man in a powerful position. Someone who has been very disrespectful to women. Someone putting the country in danger. Hm.

More money for Taylor Swift? In this economy? Undoubtedly, yes.

That One Night: The Oral History of the Greatest 'Office' Episode Ever

Erin H

This is an amazing read

As the first season of NBC’s The Office drew to a close in the spring of 2005, the show was on life support. Much of the press had dismissed it as a pale retread of the groundbreaking Ricky Gervais-led U.K. original, and its ratings had fallen each week it had been on the air. But over the next two seasons, the series, starring Steve Carell as the manager of a Scranton, Pennsylvania,

'A Quiet Place' Review: 'Stay Silent, Stay Alive' Says This New Horror Classic

Erin H

We saw a trailer for this the other day, it looks SO SCARY OMG

Did you ever think that quiet – the hush in which no talk is above a whisper – could scare the hell out of you? A Quiet Place does just that, raising the stakes on terror until no one can hear you scream. As director, star and cowriter (with Bryan Woods and Scott Beck), John Krasinski hits on a killer hook: What if a family of four, among the few left alive after a monster apocalypse,

A Guide to Freezing Leftover Brisket — Tips from The Kitchn

by Meghan Splawn
Erin H

Leftover brisket? I've never heard of such a thing.

If I could implore you to do one thing whenever you cook brisket, it would be this: Make extra brisket and freeze it. Beef brisket is better the day after it is cooked, but it can be momentarily life-changing when you remember you have some ready and waiting in the freezer. This simple tip for freezing those leftovers will ensure that you can take the leftovers and turn them into breakfast, lunch, or dinner anytime.

In world's quietest room, the silence is deafening

Erin H

I want to try it out SO BAD

If you stand in it for long enough, you start to hear your heartbeat. A ringing in your ears becomes deafening. When you move, your bones make a grinding noise. Eventually you lose your balance, because the absolute lack of reverberation sabotages your spatial awareness.

Former Offspring drummer saves life of juror at his own trial

by johng@nospam.punknews.org (johng)
Erin H

What?

As reported by Law 360, Dr. James Lilja earned some brownie points with the jury recently. Lilja was the drummer for The Offspring from '84-'87 and is now a San Jose obstetrician-gynecologist. Earlier this week was the first day of trial for a Medical Malpractice case brought against Lilja. During the trial, a juror went into cardiac arrest. Lilja jumped into action and saved the juror's life by performing CPR and then applying an external defibrillator. The judge then declared a mistrial, ruling that the action would influence the jury's opinion of Lilja. “No good deed goes unpunished,” Lilja told Law360. A new trial starts April 2.

Craigslist Wiped Its Personal Ads in Response to Sweeping Anti-Trafficking Bill

No more “w4m” or “m4m” or even “strictly platonic.” This famous little corner of the internet shut down in response to the Senate voting to pass the Stop Enabling Sex Traffickers Act (SESTA), a law ostensibly meant to prevent sex trafficking but that puts sex workers in danger and, as…

If You Love Kitchen Islands, You'll Love...Bathroom Islands?

by Danielle Blundell
Erin H

WHAT no. Where do you put your mirror? I NEED A MIRROR OVER THE SINK BECAUSE I AM OLD AND HAVE TO PRIMP

Kitchen islands are not exactly polarizing—if you have the room, you probably want one. And if you don't, you probably want one even more. I'm in the latter camp myself, but I stopped in my tracks recently when I caught an episode of HGTV's "Restored by the Fords." Instead of putting a freestanding island in the kitchen, designer Leanne Ford introduced me to the concept of a "bathroom island," and I'll never be the same. In my hypothetical dream home, I want an island in my master bath almost as much as I do in my cookspace.

Review: Lil Yachty a Better Crooner Than Rapper on 'Lil Boat 2'

Erin H

I love Lil Yachty, but haven't heard the new songs yet.

Lil Yachty's 2016 debut and New Atlanta classic Lil Boat gave rise to a cherubic pop gamine with Twizzler-colored hair beads and a candy-coated Auto-Tune voice. But on its lesser sequel, the kid whose otherworldly Eeyore-ish melodies sparked hit appearances with Billboard champs like Calvin Harris and D.R.A.M. is mostly absent. Instead, Lil Yachty wants to rap.
