State committees are very strategic about funds. They put them into races that they can either win now or in the next cycle. They prioritize close races instead of pouring money into locks or huge reaches. It's generally the smartest way to donate if your goal is to get as many people from one party elected as…

We can start by donating to the state central campaign fund instead of just to Wendy. People are driving me batty by only giving to her. Don't worry about one seat — worry about the bigger picture.

Everything's bigger in Texas, including constitutional violations.

Is your Wal-Mart a SuperCenter, or one with an updated grocery section? Our location still has what's basically a gas station-level food area that hasn't been expanded since the store was built in the early '90s. It doesn't carry any fresh produce or meats. They keep talking about expanding it, but this is what we…

Correct! Tanning responsibly isn't dumb. But tanning excessively, of your own volition, when you've been told you're at medical risk and when you're not being driven by a clinical addiction, is pretty horrifically bad judgment.

Serious question: When has Jezebel ever shamed someone for having a starvation ED?

I think you might have misunderstood me, or at least chosen to bypass the snarkily facetious nature of my "curiosity" (good on you if so), though I am glad you posted all of this information as it will undoubtedly help others.

I went to a women's college. First year, everyone used tampons or pads. Second year, there were like 50 DivaCup keeper things in the bathroom cubbies. Third year was all about reusable rags and horrifying stains in the sinks. Senior year, back to tampons and pads.

...you realize there are literally dozens of forms of skin cancer, right? Skin cancer that's caught early and only requires "a little laser that burns off right there in the doctor's office" and doesn't spread and only requires one session to fix is the absolute dream scenario. And I'm glad it was yours and all, but…

Did it feel good physically or emotionally?

There isn't a difference. Stereotypes suck. I think you missed the part where I was saying that I'm simply explaining why I think people draw the distinction. (As I said: "I'm not saying any of that is right or wrong. I just think it summarizes the distinction most people make.") I'm not issuing a ruling ex…

I'm curious to know where those shoppers go when you make their meal plans. Wal-Mart controls a quarter of the American food market, reaching about 75% in economically-distressed areas. In my local Wal-Mart — which is where virtually everyone I know on food stamps or a tight budget shops because it's the only…

No accomplishment could be higher. Do us all proud, lady.

I am fat and have skin cancer. Here's the difference as I see it:

I should amend this. I get that tanning is an addiction for some. When I say "tanning addict," I don't mean those addicted in the clinical sense. I mean those who just have no sense about it and keep overdoing it of their own volition, even knowing all the risks. I don't know what else to call them, and…

There is so much truth to this. Even basal cell carcinomas and some of the smaller sarcomas aren't exactly the easiest things to treat, and when they remove spots, they tend to just keep coming back. And melanoma? My grandmother suffered to death about two weeks after diagnosis. Skin cancer's a total bastard.

Dear tanning addicts,

Lawrence O'Donnell loves him some sassy, mouthy broads. And I say "sassy, mouthy broads" as one of the highest compliments one can give.

I'm bummed he didn't marry an American. We could have had Queen Amber Destiny Katniss Nevaeh or King Wayne Bubba Jeremitrius McCheese.
