I bought two lipstains one night. One is the Jessica Biel one in this glorious fierce bright bink and the other is . . . um, some other company in red. The red one from the other company is better but still requires a gloss on top of it.

@chocho-san: That's interesting. I hadn't heard that. In a thousand years, you think we would have figured this shit out though.

@Juxtacidic: The article says that the people admitted are residents of rural areas. It doesn't necessarily mean that the attacks happened in rural areas. Plus, places can be zoned as rural but might function as a subdivision. For example, my parents' house has a corn field in front of it, a bean field to the side,…

I blame the leash laws, a litigious society, and increasing urbanization. Dogs are required to be either fenced in or on a leash, but we live piled on top of each other. We're required to restrict the animal's movement, which hinders socialization, but because we increasingly live in cities or suburbs with tiny yards,…

@spanky: YES.

@dammit.girl: I think it's redundant. They say "radical feminists" because they mean all feminists are radical. If you are a feminist, you are by definition "radical." It's sort of like saying "athletic ballplayer" or "attractive model." There is no difference between a radical feminist and a plain jane feminist,…

@Jackie_KO: I also wipe mine with TP. I rinse mine if there is a sink available, but if there isn't, no big deal.

@Justin Shelby: It's ok. I have Zoloft.

My sympathies for Georgina. I have a compression fracture from a riding fall in August, and I wasn't even doing anything interesting. My horse just tripped twice in quick succession.

@Theacracy: Love.

@JenMyFriend: Yes.

@tracy lee: No, no, the first time somebody tried to take over the twins's life, it was Elizabeth's because she was the perfect one, but then the evil look-alike's evil twin came along and they both tried to take over the Wakefield's life together, and they kind of wanted Jessica's life because Jessica has more fun.

They should have shopped at Felpausch.

I discovered my love of Babs when I was thirteen, right before she launched The View. I watched the very first episode and spent the rest of the summer actually getting out of bed before noon just so I could watch. Being a working adult has really gotten in the way of the Babs love. Jezebel is the natural inheritor of…

@Ismone: Definitely there are social pressures. They joke about Meri being the bait that drew Janelle and Robin in. They use female friendship in their courtship. It's kind of an interesting aspect of how polygamy works. It's really fascinating sexism!

@Gnatalby: Great point.

@Ismone: I think I'm equal to any man, but I can see why polygamy might be appealing. I'd never do it, because I prefer to continue on in the "culture" in which I currently live, but I think that our perception of the idealized marriage as a "partnership between equals" colors our perspective on what marriage is. To…

@shantidevi: Yeah, Meri is in school and Janelle works all the time. These aren't women that have no concept of their worth outside the home.

@WillowWeen: This is the first comment I've seen (so far) that acknowledges the role of the broader US society. Thank you. While I intellectually agree that polygamy as practiced by FLDS degrades women, I think that the society we live in as a whole provides too few options for women not born into FLDS families. I can…
