The Incredible Shrinking Jonah Hill!

By

 

Get in line, ladies! Faster than you can sing "Oh, oh, Ozempic!," there's a new man in town. Or is there? You'll have to squint, because it's actually everyone's favorite romancer, Jonah Hill. Hot off the heels of his ex-girlfriend, Sarah Brady, accusing him of mental abuse, and Alexa Nikolas, a former child actress who claimed that he physically assaulted her as a teenager, Jonah's is back and he's working the ho stroll with a whole new look. Or a lot less of his look, 'cause he's skinny as a string bean and sporting a sassy new buzz cut. Surely gals everywhere are swooning, amirite?

Okay, so maybe not Sarah Brady, whom Jonah forbad from posting pictures on her Instagram account in her swimsuit - even though she's a surf instructor. "I respect your love of surfing," he texted her, "but I respect myself, as well!" This, he claimed, was coming from a very "vulnerable place." He further demanded that she "paddle away from any man (who) approaches you in the water, no matter their age. I literally am the best boyfriend!" 


Well that settles that. Jonah was in therapy at the time - both individual and couples therapy with Brady - and even produced a Netflix documentary about his Israeli therapist, Phil Stuz, called, "Stutz." No matter that some critics noted that Stutz seemed more like a "cult leader than a therapist." Besides, the movie is in black-and-white, so we know it's serious. And therapy, as we all know, consists of chanting affirmations about "self-acceptance" and "loving your inner child." It's all about healing. 

Not so healing? Allegedly slamming Nickolodeon's "Zoey 101" star, Alexa Nikolas, against a door, then kissing her without her consent - "He put his tongue right in my mouth," she recalled on a recent podcast - when she was 16 years old, leaving her terrified and furious. If only she could have loved her inner child (even though she was already a child!) (whoopsie!). 

"I was gross, fat and unattractive," Jonah once said of himself as a child. Let's hope he's loving that child now. It certainly seems like he is - or at least casting it aside with helpful pharmaceuticals. And if he treats women vengefully because of it? No matter. He's healing. He is "literally" "the best boyfriend."

OPEN POST: In Praise Of Lola Falana!

Hot-cha! Is there anyone slinkier than Lola Falana? Starting her career in Italy, where she became a major TV and movie star, she was later mentored in the U.S. by Sammy Davis Jr., with whom she had an affair, and exploded like a heaven-sent supernova across Broadway stages and U.S. TV screens in the 70s and 80s. Vegas called, of course, and for a time, she was the city's highest paid performer, dubbed "The First Lady of Vegas." Sadly, she was soon after sidelined by multiple sclerosis in the early 1990s, but at 81 years old, she's still kickin', and in my book, still every inch a star.

Ah hahahahahaha! Or hooray, hurrah, two snaps and a hey! Can you believe Peckerwood Manor is one year old today? We're still here , dammit, and still kickin'.  And here you are, horing and roaring right along with us.  Below, each of us joyously reflect on this, our very first Cake Day. And, yes, we come to you in alphabetical order. Why? Because we learned how to do it in preschool and we're still that cute. § AK (aka ECCE HOMO) :  Ends and beginnings! We were all shocked by the news of DListed's shuttering, but as sad as it was, I was even sadder to think I'd never again hear from everyone I'd come to know in the comments. But Bree stepped right up and created this spot - and Shonali did her part, too, starting  DListed Community (reddit.com) .  I felt so happy that we'd still be able to stay in touch, to chat about our mundane jobs, our happinesses and our (hopefully infrequent) sad times.  The very first post here, seeing all these familiar names and avi

OPEN POST: Peckerwood Field Trip - Finnish Hobby Horse Championships!

By

Welcome to the whimsical world of Finnish hobby horse racing, where madcap enthusiasts prance around with stick-mounted felt horse heads, leaping over obstacles and performing serious dressage routines without falling over, laughing wildly at their own antics. What started as an eccentric pastime has evolved into a serious sport with international recognition. Okay, international might be strong, but it has a following in Scandi countries and my sometimes beloved UK. But let's not kid ourselves, Peckers—it's also a riotously comical spectacle that has captured the interest of niche of equestrian lovers who are too broke to afford a horse, I mean, serious athletes with a love for wood between...like you people. This is why we are taking a field trip to Finland to watch a competition. We might even get raincoaster to suit up and join in, or one of the other Canadians whose own country has a bloodsport called curling.  Wrap your pretty heads around this: centuries ago, people were
