Oh, I am so sorry about your dog. Hugs.

I was in New York during Fashion Week, and I could not get over how thin the models were. They were so wafty and slender they almost didn't look human, but like some kind of celestial insect or live-action scarf. The camera really does add quite a few pounds, and this was the first time I'd seen models in the flesh. I…
Finally! A city that will afford me the special privileges and protections granted to women in lieu of the vote!
Yes, let's not rule out the possibility that this child has some sort of problem in which she licks absolutely everything put in front of her.
Oh yes, I know those parents very well. The ones who sue because their toddler saw another woman's breast and is "scarred for life". The ones who make their perfectly healthy children sanitize their hands thirty times a day. The ones who insist their child is not allowed to play at anyone else's house, ever, because…
Why not both? Munchausen's Syndrome By Proxy is a mental disorder AND a form of child abuse. The same way Pedophilic Disorder is a mental disorder, and molesting children is a form of child abuse. (It's not a completely parallel comparison, but I think it fits.) Just because something is a mental disorder doesn't mean…
Why are these kids in school?? Why aren't they working in the textile factories to help out their families? Whatever happened to bootstraps?
I took antibiotics at least 3-4 times a year until I was in my late twenties. I'm also convinced I have strong, antibiotic-resistant gut bacteria. Don't fuck with them.
I've worked with kids who needed months and months of IV antibiotics in the NICU, and the survivors are overall charming, exuberant, normal- weight kiddos. I totally get not wanting your newborn on antibiotics, but it's not necessarily something that will adversely affect him long-term.
The novel was incredibly bizarre. I couldn't figure out whether Mr. Faber was trying to convince us all to become vegans.
My mom always had a plan to retire to Arizona, but I've been lobbying strongly for New Mexico for the past decade. Breaking Bad notwithstanding.
I think everyone looks better with makeup, except me.
My friend has 2 children and is spending $2500 a month on day care. Not super-rich elite day care either, just a decent place.
That doesn't particularly infuriate me. I wasn't crazy about Shakespeare in Love, but it did feature a young woman who dressed up as a man and played to a crowded theater, which was pretty gutsy. And Ever After isn't a great film either, but I always said if I had a daughter we'd watch it regularly. Any fairy tale…
I had a third-grade teacher once tell the girls in the class to all sleep on their backs, because then gravity pulls your skin the right way and you won't get wrinkly as fast.
Well, she probably eats and gets fatter and then divides herself in two and then she's thin again but now she has a baby.
I am firmly with you in your love of pigeons. I adore them. They're so shimmery and plump and they walk funny- what's not to love?
How does the DOC decide which prison a trans person goes to? Do they have to have hormones on board, have had surgery, have been living as another gender for a certain amount of time? Is it different by state?
I firmly believe that cruel and unusual punishment is wrong. Even though I can think of criminals who I would very much WANT to receive cruel and unusual punishment, I would never actually vote or in any way approve of that action. When a society approves punishment like rape, torture, etc., that society moves closer…
