Could the Men of Jezebel perhaps take a solidarity strike from commenting in every thread on every post? That would be super.

There is a valid point to be made about where we are buying our feminist/resistance shit. This:

I have saved and saved and can now spend real money to get a good pair of jeans instead of another pair of jeggings from Target. Not to knock Target, but I’ve gained some weight over the past few years and I’m looking for something a little more structured, where the waistband won’t roll down and they’ll hold their…

UPDATE HE HAS PUT JEFF FOXWORTHY ON MY TV OMFG.

Remember when Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski stood against ACA repeal and Trumpcare/Wealthcare from the beginning and were shouted down, disowned by their own party, and physically threatened with violence from male colleagues?

Hullo GT!! I am going on a trip in 2 weeks that will involve plenty of walking, so it’s time to finally buy a) an actual pair of sneakers for like exercising and b) comfortable yet stylish walking shoes.

I want to have a car. For reference, I’m in the DC metro area, but far out enough that it makes sense. My parents also live just a couple hours north and having a car would make it SO MUCH EASIER to visit them. My mobility has also recently become somewhat limited, and even though that should hopefully be dealt with…

I mean, really? This is about Kermit being a leftist right? I mean.... right? It’s subliminal messaging. Kermit is on the right (i.e. left) side of history.

It’s even worse than I thought it would be. Allow me to sum up:

The problem isn’t that she re-homed the dog. If you can no longer care for a dog, that’s the responsible thing to do.* The problem isn’t that she claims the dog developed behavioral issues - I have no doubt that can happen to a dog who was fine in the shelter, and fine for a while after they adopted him. I have no…

Basically any yarn people - I need some advice!

Hey y’all! I’m flying out to SF tomorrow to meet Mr. Toad, and I’m super excited! I’ve never been, and I have really no idea what to do. He’s been before for work (which is why he’s already there) but counting on him to figure out what to do is not always wise. So, for those of you who are familiar, what are your…

In advance of a second interview next week, the organization I’m interviewing with sent me their benefits package to look over. As far as I know, this isn’t a normal part of second round interviews - is this a good sign?

I finally am catching up on adulting, and I need to find a good eye doctor and dentist in the Arlington area or in DC. Mostly I have no idea how to go about this - is yelp a reliable resource for doctors? Help me...

With all the focus on calling and urging people to DO THE RIGHT GODDAMN THING, don’t forget to call the Senators and Representatives, who are currently working their butts off. I just called my rep, Don Beyer, who is fucking KILLING it re: the Muslim Ban, to thank him for what he’s doing. They’re humans just like us…

Alternate title: I am a big nerd.

Bonjour GT! I’m finally looking at applying to grad schools, and am finding that I need to do some coursework before I can apply. I need to find a micro and macro econ course (i.e. one separate course in each) and an intensive French language program. I have to be able to demonstrate high proficiency. I have five…

UPDATE 2: I was able to speak to my doc over the phone before going in, and she said I could just wait it out given that my headaches weren’t increasing and I don’t have any other concussion symptoms, but if it gets worse or I notice any neurological issues, I’m to go straight to the ER.

The world is a shit show, and I got rejected from a job this morning due to being overqualified (fuck you, if I didn’t need this job I wouldn’t be applying assholes) so I’m taking solace in music. I created a playlist November 9th to help me get through, and I have a feeling it’s going to be basically on repeat for…
