No. The police were involved on the oldest's abuse when she was a pre-teen but my sister & her husband convinced her to recant, and he admitted to more minor charges that still resulted in him having to register. Some of my family knew so my niece thought we all knew and that we were all accepting of it. The second…

I've said it here before, but my sister is STILL married to the man who raped their 3 daughters. I've walked away from her but not her kids. She was abused as a child by my grandfather but my sympathy for her ends when she refused to support her children after they told her. I understand her choosing poorly due to her…

Can the Utah Jazz please change its name? And as a DC resident, everyone has to admit that the Wizards is a really stupid name.

According to the New York Times, every employee will see it in their next paycheck. Full amount to anyone there at least a year and pro-rated if less than a year.

No, no. Bitches be Crazy is a statement of general equality, a statement of fact; Bitches be Trippin' is a temporary thing, as sometime Bitches be Chillin' or Bitches be Shoppin'.

Perfecto! Black salt.

It wasn't far from my home in Virginia. He made the mistake of committing the crime here in Prince William County, our police force closes and our DA doesn't play. Professional and efficient, happy to be protected by them.

I think some of my favorite people are brown, poorish, youngish, gay, atheist, DC residents!

I was at the U from 84-87. Canes football was nasty, it was awesome. No one should pretend that football isn't violence for the enjoyment of the imperial masses. It isn't a beautiful game, it is bloodsport.

In 1992 and 95 when I gave birth, I was asked if I was planning on breastfeeding or using formula and given different "swag bags" depending on my answer. I met with a lactation consultant with both births but at my first I developed a fever that lasted 4 days in the hospital and my second was in NICU for the first few…

Former customer, Richard Smallwood. A lovely British guy. My kids went to school with a Prince, he was a bit full of himself and a momma's boy.

Wow, brilliant.

We have had abuse in our family. My sister stays married to the man who raped his own daughters. I am the only one of my 7 siblings who refuses to have any contact with her until she leaves him. Fuck him, he's a criminal. Fuck her she's a terrible mother and human being. Fuck my siblings for tacitly, no overtly,…

I have kids. I have a career. I have a full life, but I don't have it all. Every stage of my life as a parent and in my career has meant re-balancing, re-adjusting. Sometimes it was seemingly impossible, sometimes it seemed too easy. It is hard, but I think my career made me a better parent and I definitely believe…

Very well done. Try grapes next. They need NOTHING.
