I’m uncomfortable with the details of Johnson’s conviction so I really hope the court allows for DNA testing.

I don’t see the harm in doing DNA testing in both Johnson and Lee’s cases.

“I’m an American. I have constitutional rights.”

I had a terrible boss who is female and I remember driving home gripping the steering wheel in rage and questioning whether I reacted differently because she is female. Turns out she’s just a garbage human but I’m glad I considered the gender issue.

Wicked respect for Anne being honest about the realities of internalized misogyny. <3

Good on her. I don’t know why people have such a hard time admitting to their internalized -isms. I often admit to being sexist, racist and homophobic and people look at me like I’m insane, but the truth of the matter is that most of us are a little bit, and the best way to improve is to be honest with yourself. Being…

I really don’t get people crapping on Anne Hathaway. She’s always seemed so intelligent; kind; well-spoken; humble; NOT assholelish at all. Maybe she seemed a bit pretentious for a hot minute there, I guess? But, like, who gives a crap. That’s pretty harmless, in the grand scheme of things.

Amherst in June at the Emily Dickinson House.

My mother was also not wanted by her parents. I can not imagine the truly horrific pain of it, and wouldnt wish it on my worst enemy.

What I have noticed that “the village” is what makes a difference. I’m in an online moms group, and those of us who have partners who actually co-parent have a much easier time of it, as do those who live near family who helps out.

Meh. My parents have advanced degrees and didn’t pay for my college. They made it very clear from the time we were young that we would be expected to get jobs and save. College is only getting more expensive, and you don’t know their financial situations. Paying for college is a nice aspiration, but it is not…

I work in a planning department and I can tell you pretty much everyone that comes in asking about these are smug, libertarian leaning, fake idealists. They are a stupid trend that I can’t wait for to go away.

i feel like i should hate the indigo one for having a giant lily pad on the ass, but i don’t. i really don’t.

She’s living in outhouse! If that’s where life brought me I would need to reevaluate all the decisions I’ve made that got me to that point.

Tiny House ever sends my boyfriend’s 10-year-old on a screaming rampage. It’s hilarious.

Supposedly you don’t have an income while studying ? Excluding small odd jobs.

Really? I’m in the age group where many of my peers have one to two young children, and while I’m not saying it’s a walk in the park, I wouldn’t say the majority of them now spend their days resenting husbands they previously loved. Wonder what the difference is?

That’s for Earnest clients, or people who are looking to refinance their debt. Doctor’s salaries begin low while they’re in residency, then escalate quite rapidly once they begin practicing. The Atlantic did a piece if you want more reading on the subject.

Wouldn’t the CHANGE in earnings compared to required debt be a more useful comparison? For the sake of argument, if you’re already earning $120,000 and your income becomes $127,000 with an MBA, then this ratio doesn’t help much in terms of “is the degree worth it?”.
