Holy crap, this whole time I’ve been assuming Dany and Jon will hook up and fight the White Walkers together and rule Westeros happily ever after...but what if the Night’s King adopts Jon (he was totally giving him the eye at Hardhome) and it’s Jon VERSUS Dany & Dragons???

Oh god. My husband and I traumatized my brother (though he got over it right quick) and should have traumatized my parents but they were completely unfazed. I guess one tiny part of their hippy former selves stuck around. My whole extended family goes on a resort vacation every labor day. Right around the time that we

My question: At what point do you begin your self-imposed “transition” to creating an elaborate (based on the childhood photos) ruse of “blackness?” Like did her friends/family just go, oh weird, Rachel is slowly and systematically tanning and faux-texturing and dying her hair and...wait did she just turn “black?”

One time I ate too many nuts and I got a tonsil stone and it was traumatic. That’s all I’m saying about that.

Hahaha. While I enjoy the mental imagery, I highly doubt they are taking those things into consideration! Not to mention the way the way women were treated at that time. You tell a guy it’s his Christian duty to own other humans and they get some interesting ideas.

I mean, it’s a real thing! Think of Blake Lively’s “plantation chic” blog post or Paula Deen’s plantation event where she had all black servers!!! People openly long for that time! Sorry, don’t mean to detract from the awesome humor of your post!!

What do these “I’m not racist, but” people think racism is??? Does the term racism, in their minds, only mean “actively wishing for the death of all minorities and joining the KKK?” Because what inevitably follows “I’m not racist, but” statements is “I just think all minorities and especially black people should be

Tact in personal life is one thing, and reality shows air their shit because “real life” is boring, but what troubles me is that this also applies in the workplace. Now you can’t just request PTO and put it on the calendar, you have to tell your boss that it’s little Jimmy’s 2nd birthday and you just can’t miss it,

You just said exactly what I came in here to say. To me, the coats and the pants are still going pretty strong. But you hit the nail on the head with “not cool enough but too weird for the office.” Fabrics and cut are still nicer than most though, for the price, IMO. Especially since you can just keep your eye on

I mean, spreading demeaning/ridiculous stuff ala that Terry Hatcher thing you mention is one thing, but disparaging women who have never been comfortable enough to masturbate is another. Sure any loud and proud “I NEVER masturbate ew gross” types should be roundly ignored, but there are lots of women who might say

This doesn’t exactly line up with the prompt, but I’m so happy to have somewhere to share it. My last ex before I started dating my husband and I had a fairly bad breakup (he dumped me out of the blue for someone else), but eventually things mellowed out and I was able to be polite again. No comment when we got

Ah, I had the same thing with my husband’s ex. She dumped him, he and I started dating several months later, she flipped out and said I broke the “bro code.” Still calls him an asshole when they see each other out and about! For some reason. He’s really nice.

What about Williamsburg? Is this stuff still an issue with the Hasidic community there? I remember they had to have a community meeting type thing cause they were so P.O’d about the bike lane going down Bedford bringing indecent bicycling harpies through...

Husband and I both cried during the ceremony. My BFF was officiating and of course he knew exactly what to say and whipped out tissues right on queue. Actually pretty much everyone was crying. There are some crowd shots, and it would look like a funeral if not for the festive attire. LOVE IS BEAUTIFUL AND MOVING

It looks like disgusting growths to me. I completely loathe it.

No, they’re just angry that women can have sex without disastrous life-ruining consequences.

It’s a way to pander to anti-choice organizations help fund their campaigns. Has nothing to do with enacting legislation or representing voters. More than half the population has supported abortion for years and years and years.

Same here. If I wear anything in the clingy form-fitting genre I just feel way more comfortable and put together with some spanx under there. Women have used shapewear under formal clothing since the beginning of formal clothing. I can wear spanx at a fancy wedding or cocktail party and then go practice radical self

I don’t know the whole history (I believe some of it had to do with Native American religious customs like hunting and tobacco usage?), but I can certainly see how they’re being applied and amended today.

But...that’s not a compelling gov’t interest. I could win that case and I’m not a lawyer. Just show that abortion and family planning services ARE a compelling government interest as they save the gov’t (state and federal) millions and millions on emergency room deliveries for women w/o insurance, food stamps, and
