And feminist dads!

Boys need feminist moms too!

THANKS OBAMA!

I’m surprised by Trump’s interpretation on this. The darker horse won, but then after an appeal on technical grounds, the judicial system declared the lighter colored horse - far less qualified according to oddsmakers - the winner. You’d think Trump would be on board.

I like basketball

I’m just too exhausted to deal with this shit any more.

It was in no way based on importance. I just didn’t want that headline filed to “Dirt Bag.” I adored Fatima on her season of Top Chef and have been rooting for her ever since. 

said it before, will sadly say it many times again in the future:

One night I was in a hostel in Bali and I sat straight up in bed around midnight and just knew that my great aunt Kathleen was dead. It didn’t feel scary, just factual. She was over 90 but hale and hearty the last I’d heard. When I got back to Australia, my mum said “Kate I have some sad news” and I said “I know,…

I was tired and I assumed I was coming down with something and didn’t go to work the next morning, only to have my sister call to…

i don’t know about that group but just yesterday i was told by a midwife(!) on facebook that i've developed stockholm's syndrome because i said my c-section was not traumatizing.

Dear Isaiah Silva - Cancers do not hire other people for things like murder. Housekeeping, laundry, yes. Murder, no. We don't trust people to be that kind of competent. We do that sort of thing ourselves, and get away with it.
