I’m not good at being woken up. As most of you know my days and nights are backwards. So when a post went haywire today, and Nanette smartly sent THE FIANCE to call me and let me know. I grumpily got up and tried to fix the mangled post. I’m really trying not to go back to sleep even though I am watching the impeachment trial which is mind numbingly boring.
It may just be that I am not fully awake but there is a lot of weird news on my timeline. So let’s just acknowledge them and discuss in comments.
First, Kim Kardashian is claiming that her kid, North is some sort of artistic genius. WTF? And now she is going off because no one believes her.
Also, I watched Framing Brittany Spears on FX (also available on Hulu) and it was really, really bad. I am so sorry for her. Brittany is a 39 year old woman who appears to be being held hostage by her father. It’s terrifying. Why can’t someone save Brittany? Craig Ferguson is being lauded for refusing to mock Brittany Spears back in 2007. “Tonight, no Britney Spears jokes,” Ferguson said during the opening monologue of “The Late Late Show” episode from 2007. “This woman has two kids, she’s 25 years old, she’s a baby herself. She’s a baby.”
Van Jones is butthurt that he got dragged on The View recently since he seems to be a sellout. Thoughts?
I am obsessed with Claudia Conway. She is KellyAnne Conway’s daughter and the reason I tried to figure out how to get on TikTok. She reports at times like she is being held hostage. She spills all the tea on her mother. She gets put on restriction by her mother a lot and I can barely survive it. lol. She is literally one of the most fascinating people the Internet. She hates her mother perhaps even more than most of us do and tells us all the tea. Oh and she auditioned for American Idol and I cannot wait to see that.
This impeachment trial is boring AF. I missed the first video. But the “defense” was so weak and boring. Are any of you watching this?
There is so little going on these days that we are all obsessed with the idiot who put Gorilla Glue in her hair. That is how bored we are. Today’s big news is that she cut her ponytail off. Why are we so tuned into this madness?
Gorilla Glue girl is an idiot. She’s going for the Darwin Award.
KK said it took North weeks to paint that photo with her bestie in some sort of art school. Her BFF painted the exact photo.
Meh, I don’t know what to believe about Brittany.
Poor Britney. I was about 12ish when “one more time” came out so I had no idea how misogynistic the industry was and how the media treated her. Shame on Barbara Walters, Jay Leno, and Matt Lauer for the email at they treated her. Shame on the paparazzi even more so. They completely broke her and then turned the story around to make her seem like the crazy one.
Her boyfriend, Sam, posted something on IG today about what a duck Jamie is. My personal opinion is that she was dealing with postpartum, surrounded herself with bad people because she didn’t know who to trust, and her dad saw his cash cow going down a bad path. And the fact that her dad profits off of all this is disgusting. Phew! Glad I got that off my chest!
I, too, tried to watch the impeachment trial. I was fascinated with the first one and consumed 90% of the live floor proceedings. However, the video they played at the beginning of the trial was heartbreaking. I’ve never seen anything that scary in my entire life, and I was watching it from the safety of my love seat. It was also hard to hear Jamie Raskin talk about how he had buried his son the day before. He brought his daughter to the capitol with him that day and promised her she’d be safe, only to have to apologize to her because he had no clue. I’m upset because I had to call AT&T two days in a row, meanwhile this guy buries his son and survives an insurrection over the course of two days.
Sorry for the long winded post, you just happened to touch on two things that have been on my mind today.
I finally saw the video, if anyone is interested, you can see it here.

Fair warning I tend to throw up when experiencing bad things. And it took all I had in me to watch this again. And now I am in the bad place. So when they say viewer discretion advised, if you love your country, this may be difficult to view.
I am so glad the true story about the struggles Brittney suffered is out in the open. She is such a nice person & the vultures surrounding her should be ashamed of themselves. I truly hope she recovers & gets to lead her best life. Heartbreaking story. I wish her all the best.
KK is feeling her 15 minutes is fading away so she is trying to extend via her children. Disgusting.
Feel sorry for Brittany, she never had a chance, another child star who’s world has been F’d up by her parents.
Gorlilla glue lady is just stupid and yet she’ll come out with money…the world is screwed up!
TT- wishing you the best and hoping you are doing better than okay! Love you!
I read a story that the Gorilla Glue lady is now threatening to Sue and has hired a lawyer. And what planet would she ever possibly win that lawsuit it clearly states not to put it on skin. Too stupid for words
I can’t wait until all my glue bottles come with a big ole warning “not for use on hair” thanks to her!
That is an excellent point! I’m sure that will be coming out soon. I can’t believe anyone would do that. Get a fresh can of Aquanet and spray away. What was this poor thing thinking?
I can guarantee you that Gorilla Glue girl is going to hire a Personal Injury atty and get a shitload of money. Should we take bets here? TT? I was shocked when I read somebody was this stupid to do this. But the first thing I thought of was she is going to sue GG and they will settle with her. I never liked the Kardashians, I can’t stand the way they talk and I really dislike Kris. She’s such a fame whore to me. TT, sorry to say this, but I laugh everytime I read one of your posts. It’s the way you word things. They just crack me the eff up. I’d love to be your neighbor and hang over the fence and yak.
I was at work all day but, since I record daytime shows, I’m watching the impeachment hearings now. The video presented as evidence gave me such anxiety. Any republican senators who still refuse to find Trump guilty after these hearings deserve to burn in hell.
I don’t believe that North painted that picture, but I guess it’s possible that she’s an artistic genius.
I’ve always felt sorry for Brittany. She never had the coping skills to deal with her fame and no one was protecting her. I hope she’ll be ok.
The dumbass who used Gorilla Glue (who knew that it came in a spray form?) is too stupid for me to waste time on. If she sues, I hope she ends up losing & having to pay Gorilla Glue’s legal fees.
One thing is for sure. Gorilla glue is going to spend a shit ton of money adding a new warning to their label.
It literally says DO NOT PUT ON SKIN. NOT FOR USE ON BODIES. Etc.. I’m sure they are thrilled by the advertising.
That!! Do not put on your skin…The dumb ish says” it doesn’t say your hair” It says do not put on your skin… your hair is attached to your skull which is part of your skin…idiot
I forgot to add that I cannot watch this impeachment trial. I am sick of anything related to Trump. He’s gone and let’s just move forward UNITED in the fact that we won’t ever have to listen to his hatred every again and focus on getting the vaccine distributed PROPERLY and QUICKLY. I also listened to the Brittany podcast but didn’t watch the movie. I think she’s being swindled by her father who, in her own words years ago, she supported and he was a drunk. These kids need someone not related to them to manage their $ and their lives cuz it seems like some of these parents are in it for the fame and $ the kids can rake in. Kellyanne Conway flipped from hard line Dem to Rep to work for Trump so I never understood her INTENSITY other than that she was getting paid very very well. I watched the videos Claudia posted and wow. I hope she does well on American Idol tho. The kid needs a little break I think. The way Kellyanne was swearing at her and calling her names was just horrible. Once again, you are grilled for hours, checked out by the FBI, CIA and homeland security before being able to adopt a pet, but any moron can have a baby no questions asked…..
Can not do politics right now,
My sanity & sleep require me to back away – actually shut down life for a few days to possibly regroup. I want to move & move on with life … but the golden handcuffs of covid strap me to where i no longer want to be.
Due to Direct TV having a pissing contest with Tenga, ABC in DFW has been offline for 2 months – so no View watching.
I did find Blacklist on Netflix & just binged 7 seasons – James Spader is amazing.
Friend sent me GG chick clip – who thought that would have gone sideways. Britney, I’m uncomfortable watching her pain. Anything Kardashian I have happily avoided over the years, find them vapid & self serving.
Guess just grouchy, everyone is annoying me – even the 4 pups who had a fucking party of a 12 pack of toilet paper today while trying to get a nap in. It’s everywhere, so poured a glass of wine and will do clean up later.
I bet the puppies had a great time
Oh they so did – was pissed at first now I’m kinda laughing.
Shredded 12 rolls – running I guess up & down the stairs. 3 are in hiding now, I know the ring leader, my border collie. He’s the only one bold enough to hang next to me, right now. Fucker, laying his head on roll of TP……this dog, so lucky I adore him.
It’s sad when an aging beauty queen has to push her daughter into the media for attention,
Van Jones is hot
Claudia Conway is a precocious young lady, isn’t she?
If tRump had paid a few of his lawyers he may have been able to put together a better defense than this clown show he has representing him. It was bad.
I’m getting my 1st shot on Thursday. Yeah
I low-key love the gorilla glue lady knocking on her own head with the dried glue on it. “thunk thunk” and the Gorilla glue people are saying “uh, sorry? we never really expected anyone to spray it on their head and blame us…”
Is Gorilla Glue the new fix-a-flat discount beauty accessory?
I’m watching the Britney doc tonight and crying my eyes out. I’m a few years younger than her and always loved her. What happened to her then would never, ever happen now.
I had left the tv on and listened to bits and pieces of the trial. Zzzz. I finally binged The Undoing in one day and I loved it, so thanks to those of you who recommended it. I’m planning on watching the Britney Spears documentary soon, but I already know it will piss me off.
Oh, the gorilla glue. Apparently there is a hair product called gorilla spray or something?
There is Gorilla Snot which is hair gel (my boys went through a stage where it was the “in” thing to do, the weirdos) and is found in the hair care aisle. Gorilla Glue smells like glue and is no where near there.
And, of course, GG Girl is from my home state of Louisiana. We really are pretty normal down here, don’t believe the people the media chooses to show!!!
Judas and the Black Messiah is coming to HBO Max soon. I saw the ad on Fox. Yeah, I know. I plan on watching.
I guess this is like when ‘North’ went through Kim’s phone and posted a sexy pic of Kim when she was 2. I feel like there would be video of this genius. Even if North was a prodigy, it’s the Boy Who Cried Wolf at this stage.
The picture looks like one of those where you pay $30-40 to go to a wine and paint night where they walk you through it step by step. The artist has already figured out how to add light and texture and they tell you, take a specific brush and push it into the paper a few times to make leaves. Now brush a tiny bit of yellow on the tree trunk. Make white squiggles going down the mountain like this.
I like the picture and it is one of the more sophisticated ones of this type. I believe she did it because I’ve come out of those nights with things that I don’t know how to paint on my own.

Gorilla Glue girl interview
SHE IS FORTY YEARS OLD??????
On the gorilla glue mess…I’ve picked up the wrong thing and thought i was hair spray…usually it’s perfume and I realize it before I spray it in my hair but this lady knew it was glue and did it so yeah NO. but lets all remember we started out the lockdowns watching Joe Exotic and the Tiger King so why should we be shocked this lady thought to herself Hey I’ll put glue on my head and make tons of money.
Am I the only person who has not seen the GG video? I’m gonna have to look it up. That and Conways daughter… can’t stand Kelly Anne. I gotta look her up too.
I always felt bad for Brittany. The music industry chews these stars up and spits them out… they don’t care about them. Then to have family treat you the same is just devastating
As far as impeachment goes, I find it a waste of time and our tax money. It is also proof to me that Gov’t has no interest in unity since they feed on division.
I mean, adults need to take ownership for their actions. I can’t stand Andy Cohen but if TT got on here and said “OK y’all, Andy is the reason for all our angst, why TV has become a shitshow and is satan himself, let’s all storm the clubhouse set and let him and Bravo know we won’t take his B.S. anymore!!!” Would we do it? I don’t know about everyone else but I might protest outside the building but would head my happy butt home if people started breaking down barricades and doors. If people did storm the set, I’d blame the adults who chose to do it, not TT… I don’t blame Trump for telling people to head to the Capitol to protest but I do blame any idiot who thought it was a good idea to fight police and break into a Gov’t building to vandalize and terrorize others. I don’t buy into mob mentality, I know right from wrong.
Both are wrong: him to say it, them to do it.
I have always had a huge crush on Craig Furgeson, he checks all the boxes for me! When I need a laugh I’ll watch him on YouTube, late night TV hasn’t been the same since he left!?
I adore him, He did a movie called Saving Grace ….. if it pops up, I’m watching..again.
Love his style of humor.
Craig Ferguson is one of my all time favorites late night talk show hosts . I loved him & his show He is extremely talented & so funny. I remember his monologue on not attacking Britney Spears in her most extremely vulnerable state. He was & remains a true gentleman. Class act by showing compassion & trying to understand & respecting Britney’s turmoil & not jumping on the bandwagon of disparaging her when she was attacked relentlessly by all of the media at the time.
Any father worth his weight wouldn’t fight his daughter to maintain conservatorship. If the court truly thinks she still needs it, which I personally think she doesn’t need it, then the father should work with the daughter to find someone they both feel good about like the Mom! What a jerk this “Dad” is!
I’m watching Stacey Plaskett (impeachment manager) hand Trump his ripped to shreds ass.
I really hope Gorilla glue doesn’t sue and win. That would be a crime against intelligence.
North’s painting is a catch 22 for me. I was the kid that woke up at 5am at 10 years old to watch Bob Ross on the PBS channel and tried to recreate it. I think it’s kinda a Monet. It looks good at first glance, but when you actually zoom in- not that great. Her mountain is very blotchy, reflections are crooked, leaves are blobs. I can see her palette knife line and no mountain is that straight on for lines. The tree trunks get me with the shadows and light. I think she may have had some help with those. Could be luck. Just my asshole interpretation of a “child’s” work..
I was watching the Impeachment trial listening with my back turned since I work from home and had to be on my laptop. I could tell the difference when Trump lawyers’ took the floor. It was like night and day. I sat there wondering is this Senators talking because they are horrible. Why is he rambling, what point is he trying to make, this is stupid, he is stupid. And finally I turned around and saw that it was Trump’s lawyer. I couldn’t believe it, what kind of lawyer is this? I have never felt sorry for Trump at all, but his lawyers were terrible. Although I know that the Republicans are not going to side with the Democrats regardless. Trump will go free.
Gloria Glue girl: That’s the stupidest thing I have ever heard of, adding Gloria Glue to your hair routine and wanting to sue them for something you did to yourself.
K. Kard: attention seeking as usual
Van Jones: I do not feel sorry for him, they handled him his behind. Go View!!!
Please, kids at 7 can barely write their name and still draw outside the lines. ?
Tangentially related to Gorilla Glue. I work from home and was on a client call. I tend to pace around the house while on lengthy calls. I was speaking assertively, trying to make a point about something that I’m sure felt very important at the time.
My speech over, it was my turn to listen to the client,. I took the opportunity to grab a bottle of water from my nightstand and took a biiiig swig.
It was nail polish remover.
?
Oh NO! I Assume you knew right away and spit it out while keeping the professional call going?! Are you okay?
Kipper, I think live told you that you are one of my faves on this site.
I was fine, it was non acetone and tasted lemony. I didnt swallow. Heh heh. While the client was still talking, I signaled my handy millennial that I keep in the basement snd had him call poison control.
Just rinsed my mouth a lot and acted casual. Client never knew.
Rinse
I need a need a handy millennial!
So glad you’re okay!
You are adorable. Have you got your vaccine? Hoping so!
OMG I am so late to this.
I love how much we support each other here. Even when they mistake water for nail polish remover. I think we have our very own Gorilla Glue girl here.
