For everyone standing around looking at what the GOP has become even just since 2012 going “How the fuck could this happen?” Which, I think, is most of us, in both parties. I don’t think even with the rise of the Tea Party since 2009 prepared us for how frankly weird things have gotten.

Are you fucking kidding me?! COME ON. ENOUGH.

I love buying CDs still, I listen to them on my kitchen boombox and in my car, cause it’s a lot easier to change a CD one handed than it is to illegally search through my ipod for a new artist to listen to.

I am also possibly 70 years old.

I bought 25. In CD form. It should arrive tomorrow. NO ONE WILL TAKE IT FROM ME.


When poor people complain about elements of their jobs like lack of health insurance, inconsistent hours or low pay they are told to get more education and get a better job. Perhaps that would also help those whose largest work related problem is their hotel loyalty program.

I think a lot of women really suffer from carer’s fatigue.

It can both be true that Caitlyn Jenner is not deserving of the Woman of the Year, and that this guy is an asshole for calling her a man.

Now playing

Speaking of tv shows, can everyone go watch Crazy Ex Girlfriend? because a) it’s so much more clever than its name, b) Rachel Bloom is freaking amazing, and c) it allows me to indulge my Santino Fontana obsession on a weekly basis. I’m afraid it will get cancelled because I swear every show I love dies.

Because men don’t see the emotional work. Women are socialized from birth to recognize and respond to it. Men are not. The effort to bring men up to speed is exhausting. You talk and talk and talk until you’re blue in the face, hoping for one *aha* moment, and when it happens, they expect a freaking trophy because

But part of the problem is that asking is part of the emotional work. Recognizing that it needs to be done, planning it, delegating tasks, all of that goes unseen.

Jezebel commenter thread of the day.. Well done team.

Thank you Hillary. This is a story that makes me smile because the badass women are getting shit done. And makes me furious that it has taken badass women who can get shit done, to get shit done because all the fucking men who run shit found a way to get all the weed smokers in jail but not the fucking rapists.

Thank you! All these “you’re doing it to yourself” and “you’re too indulgent” and “you do too many things with your kid” comments are kind of grossing me out. The mommy wars suck and are one of the most unpleasant things about parenting.

AMEN TO ALL OF THAT! I get very pissy reading these comments from people who are clearly not in the trenches and do not understand that the world now is not the world they grew up in. You can’t just sit around with your friends smoking and gossiping on the porch while your kids run around outside because some nosey

Can we stop with the whole “ur doin it to urself” thing please? Sure, there are probably upwards of several hundred couples in Manhattan who are both employed, with young children, who have attempted to craft a Halloween costume out of mason jars and pallets, but that really isn’t life for most of us (admittedly

A zoo membership isn’t crazy. It’s just a pass to the zoo.

True story - my mom and grandma have curly hair. My grandma had always gotten shit at jobs for her hair. When she finally got a union job, she wore a straight wig for her entire probationary period (a few months?) ad then the day after her probation was up, she wore her real hair to work and they couldn't say a damn

18 years ago, I put on a pair of JNCO jeans and a Smashing Pumpkins t-shirt and went to a punk show at my (rural CT) town’s local teen center. There I saw a boy, told him I was going to flirt with him and did for the rest of the night... and then, on and off (and mostly online) for the next decade or so before we

It somehow feels even more tragic that she was believed by:
