I am sad for anyone who loses a pregnancy they wanted, and I do think it’s great to have miscarriage discussed so I am not with the “this is why you don’t share” crowd. But they are just so God&Country, we are messengers from God, our light from God is what America(TM) needs, God hates figs [sic]... that I regret…

Whoa, whoa, whoa, way to bury the lede! A wine dispensing nappy bag!? I am not pregnant and have no children and I am strongly considering purchasing that post-haste.

This is probably the only “Cosby Show” episode I actually remember the plot of, and I think of it every single time I eat some condiment or recipe and wonder what is in it to make it so delicious. Like, it really stuck with me as a kid that you put different things together to make flavor combinations, and now I’m a…

I certainly hope so! For “coping mechanisms,” when it is so bad I can’t handle it anymore, I repeat to myself that it is not real. It feels real, but it’s not real, and I will feel better again. Sometimes the “aftershocks” last for a few days and I feel hopeless, but then without fail, eventually something gets a…

I think we’re having the same experience. Internet hugs to you... questioning your own sanity and your own self-worth is a terrible place to be.

Are the “00s” called the “aughts,” then? I truly didn’t know that, and didn’t have a good name for that decade, which lends evidence to your statement. Or lends evidence that I’m clueless!

Thank you for including the modifier “active”

So much respect for Jackie Fuchs. Her strength and empathy is something to behold. I feel sick for what she went through, and that she can come out the other side with such a profoundly nuanced understanding of the social psychology of her terrible experience is awe-inspiring. I am not sure that after 40, 50, 60 odd…

Interesting point. After the logistics are sorted** there is a sense of “what do I do now, now that it’s just me and my grief?” I am sorry you were left alone... that is terrible squared, and should not have happened. I think the way you remember your mom is awesome. I do the same with my dad - cook and eat his…

The woman who says “you got a lot to do these next few days. you’re gonna have to be the strong one” wins the award for being the least soothing person in history. Fucking hell.

My god, I am so so sorry. It seems like some time has passed since then, but some wounds are deep. Hugs!

This (health) is why despite my best efforts to change the way I feel (which no one cares or should really care about, but it’s what I got) about obesity and “body image,” I just haven’t been able to come around to the idea that being very overweight is a good thing. I definitely do NOT agree that people of any size…

I am in the midst of planning a way too large wedding. I am looking forward to it but also feeling a bit afraid that I won’t be able to “enjoy the moment” because I’ll be thinking about the dollar per second price of such an affair. Elopement never appealed to me for some reason, but I sometimes think a town hall or…

So many delicious burns in so few words!

Not often, and there are surprisingly few businesses that cater to our demographic. But in case anyone reads this far down... Long Tall Sally has some legit buys, especially in the “formal” and “office” categories, which are sometimes the hardest things to find. Be prepared to pay a pretty penny, though... and quality…

I hope Khloe finds her happily ever after and falls madly in love because she really deserves it. I hope Kourtney is maybe done with having babies. She has a lot on her plate and I know she doesn’t want to stop anytime soon. I hope Kendall will continue to be modeling and doing whatever she loves to do. And Kylie…

“If you watch this video without my consent, then I hope you reflect on your reasons for objectifying me and participating in my rape, for, in that case, you were the one who couldn’t resist the urge to make Ceci N’est Pas Un Viol about what you wanted to make it about: rape.”

A Facebook page called Justice for Izabel is filled with calls for her father to be criminally prosecuted or else publicly shamed himself.

I have never had the opportunity to NOT pump my own gas. I am confused about where these non-self-serve options are (besides car washes?). Like, if I got out of my car at a 76 Station and just STOOD there, I’d probably pass out from fumes before someone pumped my damn gas. But go Gos!

That’s really nice to say, and I never thought of it that way <3
