I kinda think so? I posted that right after the conversation on a fit of incredulous rage, but in thinking about it more, she seems to be just completely uninformed but also believes she is more informed than literally anyone else speaking about this. It's a big disappointment when you learn that someone you like is…

Uhmmm what. I had no idea this was a thing. Why don't you tell me all of your life plans, complete stranger? (Except we're not strangers. You replied to my tweet once, so we're pretty much besties.)

I just had a conversation with a (sort of) friend about this celebrity photo hack. I need to talk about it to someone who gives a shit. I don't have that, so I'm going to write about it here and maybe someone will read it and be confused/enraged with me.

The mother could have avoided any criminal charges if she had taken advantage of Baby Moses laws by carrying the child to term, and then dropping it off at a safe baby site like a fire station.

Not to mention how domestic violence is largely ignored by local officials, allowing abusers to stay out of jail (or be released quickly) so they can do more damage to their victims. I'm not sure if this guy had a history of arrests related to violence (domestic or not), but there are so many cases of murdered women…

I'm in a position similar to the letter writer's, though husband and I have never discussed my coming out to anyone. I realized it after we were married and he and a couple close friends know. I don't think I want to open it up to anyone else for fear of judgment and that I'm "going through a phase" or whatever. My…

HOLY SHIT, this guy has some mommy issues. He should really explore that in therapy/hell.

They're sculptures! I was like "what sorcery did these women use to get their lady-parts so smooth and stubble-free?" I guess a labia made out of marble would help.

This was extremely informative. Thank you for writing it. Add this to the checklist of further evidence that the US is an oligarchy claiming to give a shit about anyone but corporations.

*is impressed* I only have 100. :-(

This happened in my city. It is absolutely horrifying. We have the typical crime of any other mid-sized city, but never something this fucked up that I've ever heard of. Aside from the downtown Grand Rapids oasis of liberalism, it's a pretty conservative/religious area and the victim blaming and slut shaming happening…

Awkward mix of Alt, Country Chic (despite being indoors at an old music hall), and DIY. God that makes me sound like an asshole. But it worked because we are both actually awkward! And an open bar led to a fun party and a lot of happy attendees, which is what mostly mattered to me.

How did I know just from reading the title that this would be a Lindy West story?*

So my best friend had a wedding. I was the "matron of honor", which is just as sexy as it sounds. All of my friends, everyone in and around this wedding, is a pothead. My husband, bless his dear Canadian heart, decided it was his duty to bring All The Drugs. You know, in case the other 50 or so people forgot theirs.…

Don't Canadians have enough bad publicity these days? Shut up.
