How is it that I can simultaneously love the “Tully” trailer and also your comment in equal huge amounts?!

Emotional Support Hipster

It’s definitely not a sequel to Young Adult but on its own, I’ll probably appreciate it. “Theron’s life is fine to start” even when things are fine, motherhood is effing hard. Especially in that newborn haze. Your body and emotions are a wreck and you’re also caring for a new life, and this case, other kids as well.

Wow, I am fascinated by how deeply I want to punch this movie in the face. And I am the target audience — middle aged white lady mom of a couple kids! From the minute that door opened to a wide-eyed ingenue who just wants to listen to me closely, hold my baby, and not fuck my husband or steal my xanax, I want to punch…

As Market Watch notes, only 27 Fortune 500 CEOs are women (or 5.4%)—none of whom are black. Only three Fortune 500 companies have a black man leading them.

Didn’t realise I wanted this until you put it out there - she would have been the PERFECT Belle (in addition to the Belle she played perfectly). Fell in love with her as Martha’s scene stealing sister in Doctor Who and just last week my girlfriends and I were talking about why she’s not a bigger star. She left our…

The Library of Congress archived all public tweets from Twitter’s start in 2006 through to December 31, 2017. You can find more information about the project at loc.gov. I hope you are eventually able to regain your tweets from that source.

I got a timeout for telling a neo-Nazi to “choke on your own dishonor”. Rude, yes, but not violent. It’s inherently passive. But the algorithm decided that was a problem.

Why, why, why do these guys go so rapidly to sexual interest with women they barely know? I don’t get it. What’s the logic in his brain that allows him to make that leap? What messages are we raising boys and young men with that they do this?

we don’t know each other but i am so proud of you, too.

Though the details vary, your story is my story.

Exactly. Just settting the limit at 15 without corresponding Romeo/Juliet restrictions just says “hey creepy 45 year olds - just make sure she’s 15 before you start rubbing her back and telling her how mature she is for her age.” *shudder*.

Raise your hand if you were a 15 year old girl who was constantly pestered by older men. The fathers of the kids you babysat for pouring you a drink. Your friends’ fathers staring at your tits or walking in on you in the shower. Your male teachers dropping hints. Strangers pulling over as you walked home from school.

After seeing what friends have gone through in custody battles with abusive men, I find that myth bizarre. It seems like the courts will go to great lengths to preserve a father’s access to a child, even if that father is abusive to the child and/or mother, and is using the legal process as a way to manipulate the…

I’m a librarian at a non-profit, and holy shit the “fair use” misunderstanding is the bane of my existence. “But we’re a non-profit!” Yeah we’re not educational though, so time to take that Disney character out of your powerpoint, buddy.

Sorry, no, this is absolute horseshit.

I could be wrong but I remember reading that courts don’t favor mothers in cases where fathers fight for custody. Most fathers don’t fight for full custody.

Now you know how we feel.

When Orange Is the New Black first premiered, I remember being shocked (in the best way) by how many women there were on screen. Not only that, but such a wide variety of women.

I love this idea — taking economic leverage and applying it on behalf of people and groups who’ve lacked it. It’s a great way of addressing the imbalances that Dr. Smith herself first identified years ago, and that Geena Davis highlighted:
