Support her when she is standing up for herself and punish her when she is being obnoxious, annoying, or problematic.

I do work for NASA and my little heart melted when I saw him rocking his little NASA “meatball” t-shirt throughout all of this. I hope his wonder and curiosity weren’t extinguished by what happened to him. I’m also glad that the incident was met with a swift collective eyeroll/rage. I could go on about how much more…

i don’t understand why there are no animated gifs, but this is always necessary:

Until the publisher corrects the language teachers may look at this as an opportunity to question what is in print with his/her students. As a former teacher I quite frequently used slanted text as a teachable opportunity to encourage critical thinking in the classroom.

Ugh!! Your story is so mine! Fat in high school and college. Decided to start getting healthy and exercising 4 years ago. Took up running and I’ve ran several 5Ks, 10Ks, half marathons and a marathon. I developed plantar faciiatis also after all the weeks of training for the marathon and I havent been the same since!!…

This is so great! After many years of telling people “I only run when being chased,” I started running in 2010 and have now run 2 marathons. I started running because I was in law school, which is the most sedentary existence possible, and knew I needed to start exercising. I couldn’t afford a monthly gym membership,…

I just started running this year. Having never run in my entire life, I figured maybe I was doing it wrong so in the spring, I signed up for a Learn-to-Run clinic at my local Running Room store and I fell in love with it. I never thought I would see the day I ever said “I LOVE running!” But I do. I’ve done 3 5K runs…

Right! I think step 15 should be “Please also practice good self care when running a few or lots of miles. Stretch, foam roll, cool down, and do your best to distinguish between pain and soreness. Eat enough food and drink enough water to fuel yourself. Get a massage sometimes. Allow yourself time to rest and recover.”

The catch is that “family values” is usually just bullshit buzzwordery employed by conservatives as shorthand for “everyone have lots of babies* and take nice family photos in matching polo shirts, mommies stay home to raise them and don’t you even think about IUDs or abortion.”

Also worth noting that, and I can’t stress this enough, the President has limited powers. They cannot just implement laws by fiat. Congress would have to pass that law first. Also, any law that blatantly tried to implement Sharia law would be immediately challenged and would be swiftly struck down as unconstitutional.…

Carly Fiorina’s answer was the WORST. “Women are not a special interest group?” She’s positioning herself to oppose ANY laws that would help women as catering to “special interests.” Putting women on money is nothing but a symbolic gesture, sure, but sometimes symbolic gestures are fucking important demonstrations of…

One of the NASA people are already on that.

Hello NASA? I’m thinking of a certain kid in Irving, Texas who you definitely want to have intern with you next summer.

“How many Lamborghinis were purchased with the blood of innocent children?”

She claimed to be “willing to stay in...jail as long as it takes for her to win back her constitutional rights not just for her but for Americans of all faiths.”

My 6 year old thinks that all adults have beer parties, because “kids have cake parties, but adults have beer parties.” Umm...

I think the most unrealistic thing here is a 9-year-old who only needs to be told twice to sit down.

If he’s too street I don’t want to be sidewalk, ya know?

But...
