Public service annoucement! The Outcome is one of the worst movies I’ve seen in a zillion years. It’s like they made it deliberately bad. It’s so bad, I’ll have to come back to explain how bad because right now, I’m here just to warn you: save yourself!
I’m kinda in love with these Artemis astronauts. Thank you, NASA. Thanks, teachers and students everywhere for being interested in exploring and solving and working together and for questioning and all the things. I’m so grateful.
For nearly 100 years I’ve been saying that there should be more hot pink, deep pink, and fuschia lighting.
And here I am, saying it again.
I love Meghan’s new show, and I don’t care who hears it. I think it’s beautiful, heartfelt, (mostly) sincere, warm, inviting, and I learned how to make a balloon arch, a ladybug crostini, and a LOT about flower arrangement (that emphasis is meant as a positive because I thought I was ok at arranging).
To address some criticism about transparency or authenticity: I know that it’s not filmed at her home, but supposedly near her home (though I think that’s fairly obvious from some comments she makes); I know that not all the guests are her friends from before the show, but she and those that aren’t make that clear.
But the home she uses is beautiful and she clearly feels at home in it. She has a lovely ease her guests—both friends and new-friends alike—and it certainly seems that both the crew and cameras like her.
It all feels natural, relatively normal and as accessible as it could ever be for me—entering a Montecito kitchen of a UK royal.
There’s been a lot of hate. But I don’t get it. Haters, what did you want the show to be? You didn’t want it to exist? Ok, well, deal with it.
And those of you criticizing it for its substance as “just another” whatever? How can that even be? What is another MONTECITO LIFESTYLE SHOW OF A UK ROYAL?! When did you see that show when I wasn’t watching?
Also, who among you knew that the balloon blowy-uppy thing that she showed for the garden party existed? For that alone, she deserves your praise. Or at least a balloon arch in her name.
If you don’t subscribe to Kareem Abdul-Jabbbar’s Substack, I encourage you to do so. I’ll be first in line to say that I don’t understand what Substack is, but I’ll also try to be at the very front of the line (I imagine a lot of competition) to crown Kareem the national treasure that he is.
