I drink occasionally but these Lifehacker posts on alcohol (and being on airplanes myself) make me feel like a straight up Mormon. Sorry...ahem...Member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Y’all are drinking way too much. Guys on the 8am flights are ordering double vodka sodas...society has largely…

A lot of them do offer Plan B, but too many do not. If you end up at a Catholic-affiliated hospital, they typically won’t offer it. Their providers hands are tied, so try to avoid them. This is increasingly challenging. Mergerwatch does a great job of raising awareness of Catholic takeovers of local hospitals and…

Oh, this is interesting. Here are the posters for Good Cop, Black Panther, and Like Father on my Netflix. Based on the results, I’m guessing Netlix thinks I’m a biracial (Black/White) woman who is mostly interested in movies with female leads first and Black leads of any gender second.

They’re fast. I’m told they thoroughly vetted a Supreme Court nominee in under a week.

The FBI must have a lot of free time on their hands if they can send three undercover agents to try and trip a mayor up using his brother and a broadway musical ticket.

Meanwhile, ultra-feminist Jessica Jones has no interest in developing characters of color unless Jessica gets to fuck them

I hate Trish Walker as well.  Just wanted to say that because the character does not get enough hatred on the internet.

I am no Alton Brown *sigh*

I thought it was ironic that Harlem was shown as predominantly black on the show when IRL it’s the opposite.  I was always waiting for a gentrification scene but it never came.

Hi, fellow tall girl here. I feel you on some of those hang ups. My BF is only a lil taller than me but weighs a loooot less, so in many ways he’s smaller than me. Still, not gonna lie, I really like the fact that he can pick me up p easily regardless. Dumb shit to value, but hey, we’re imperfect meat sacks.

This to me is the most galling thing. Aloof detachment and condescension directed at people fighting for their very lives is a special kind of cruel.

The best part of Calvin’s Dad’s answers is that Calvin’s Dad is a patent attorney—a lawyer with an engineering degree. Bill Watterson either stated it in an interview or it’s touched on in a strip at some point, but Calvin’s dad absolutely knows the answer to any of Calvin’s questions, he just prefers to make…

My parents told me we couldn’t get cable growing up because the workers hadn’t put cables on our side of the street yet. She said they ran out of cables. I didn’t think anything of it. In college we moved and we got cable at the new house. I was telling a friend “Yeah, I’m excited we’re getting cable, we couldn’t get…

Assault and battery.

“Non-Consensual Footsie”.

Ha! I told her(she was black!!!!!) to get out. Many lapses in care /decorum( nurses kept pushing WIC papers that I never asked for and didn’t need on me, threatened to take my pain meds if I didn’t get out of the bathroom faster) at the hospital, that was the last straw, called my Dr.and tore him a new one , the next…

Here’s why it’s an abuse of power: Despite Lewinsky’s enthusiastic consent, she could not have opted to refuse or rescind consent without fear of retaliation. True consent must include the ability to safely deny consent.

I’d be more on board with the “She doesn’t have to answer for her husband” if she just didn’t answer. If she was like “I’m not here to talk about what my husband did 20 years ago,” I’d be like “Ok, fair.”

Because it should have been addressed fucking ages ago.  We 100% know what happened between the two of them and it was an abuse of power and if we don’t address the elephant in the room, they will use it to attack us again and again and again, like they already have been doing.

I’m glad she’s pushing back on some of it because to be honest it’s one of the things that’s disappointed me about the show, that Rainbow seems to work the ‘second shift’ of all the childcare/housework and that dynamic doesn’t seem to be interrogated very much. She’s supposed to be an example of this strong 21st…
