As long her motivation was to win homecoming queen and not drug a bunch of her classmates. I have a feeling she advertized them as pot brownies, otherwise it would have been cheaper and less risky to just give out regular brownies.

Either that or the, “American women should shut up about Kavanaugh and stop complaining about sexual assault in general because women in other countries have it so much worse brigade!” Also known as the, “I will only care about women being raped in other countries when I can use their trauma to dismiss the trauma of…

Because if they’re “good” Catholics, they can’t have sex until they get married, so getting married earlier means having sex sooner?

Very true. My sister has a high paying job with corporate Seamless, and she always orders from places that give you big enough portions that she can save half of her dinner for the next day’s lunch, so she essentially lives on takeout.

It’s for the reality TV type folks and all the 20 somethings who pretend that they can afford to rent a 1 bedroom apartment in a trendy Manhattan neighborhood and get takeout for every meal all on their own income, when in actuality, their parents are probably paying most of their bills. I have a former roommate who…

Also, if someone does need to watch their sodium intake, I’d imagine that it would be more effective to make sure the food you eat doesn’t have more sodium than you think it does. Like you necessarily wouldn’t think of changing the type of sliced bread you eat, but it’s probably better for your health and taste buds…

It was adapted into a musical a few years ago, though beyond updating the technology and the slang to avoid having too many early 2000's references distract people from the rest of the show, I’m not sure how much of the plot/overall message was changed. Tina Fey was also one of the people who wrote the musical, so…

How?!? I turned my emergency alerts off and I still got it. =(

This is true. I didn’t get the HPV vaccine as a kid (I think the FDA approved it when I was in high school) because my doctor was unnecessarily worried about the side effects. I didn’t bother trying to get it until I was in grad school, and I couldn’t even get it at the student health center unless I wanted to face…

At this point I see no problem with assuming that Trump is just the Republicans’/his supporters’ id. No matter how much they claim they don’t agree with something he said, as long as they continue supporting them, I think it’s fair for me to assume that every horrible thing Trump says is just something that their…

Even though I like some of the American actors cast in the Fantastic Beast series (which I have not actually watched at all, tbh), his casting almost makes me wish they had stuck to the “only cast actors from the UK” rule they had for much of the original franchise, at least for the characters who are British (since I…

Unless you’re being sarcastic, do a quick Google search on reproductive coercion. Reproductive coercion/birth control sabotage is one strategy that abusers use to keep their partners from leaving them, because leaving an abusive relationship becomes even more difficult and complicated when someone has kids with their…

I’m thinking either Janet from The Good Place or Daria (which I already have the clothes I need to pull off), partially so I can go to work dressed up, while still being able to pull off business casual. 

Normally I’d be up for watching a movie just because Oscar Isaac and his hotness is in it, but I don’t think I can sit through this one just for him.

Right?! These Republicans must have a pretty low opinion of men if they assume that all of you have sexually assaulted someone at least once.

I’m sorry you went through all that and I hope you can get the support you need to. And good for you for not being gracious about those “compliments.” It’s really hard to push back on those. 

Oh man, I’m glad you’re okay now! People are so focused on the idea of being thin=good that they don’t even think to realize that a dramatic weight loss in a short period of time may not be a good thing. 

Yeah, my mother does it sometimes, though at the same time, she worried when I wasn’t eating enough because my illnesses or anxiety were wrecking my appetite. Oh parents...

Yeah, the thing with the nurse happened a few years ago, and it took me about 4 months before I got the courage to make an appointment with Planned Parenthood to get my birth control taken care of (and they stuck to talking about my sexual and reproductive health concerns, so it was a much better experience even…

Being fat shamed by the doctor is one of the reasons I’ve put off making appointments lately. Which as a public health person, I know is bad, but after having a nurse at the student health center spend most of my appointment time talking about my weight instead of what i actually went there for (birth control), I…
