TBH, I have purchased quite a few items of clothing from them and anytime it fits weird or is the wrong size, they have been super chill about returns. I’ve really only ever had to return 2 items. The reviews and question and answer sections are generally super helpful in helping me determine fit, quality, fabric type…

Hopefully this will open her eyes to the absurdity of believing in an invisible sky-god. Hopefully this will reveal to her the deep-seated bigotry and hatred that underlies the vast majority of religions. Hopefully this will make her realize that what they preach is not what they practice. Hopefully she will go on…

A general rule is if the only reason you are angry at someone is that their dopey magic is different from your dopey magic, you should probably just stay home.

Retire, old man, you’re fucking useless. You can cluck your dessicated tongue and wag your bony finger at Trump’s antics all you want, but you don’t actually do a goddamn thing about it.

What’s old is new again.

Look at that fucking gorgeous creative writing professor.

Chris Pine went to Berkeley, studied English literature, and did the education abroad program at the University of Leeds a few years after I did. He’s rep’ing us English majors well, and is therefore the top Chris.

YES. The lengths they went to in order to try and “handle” anyone who came to the aid of residents was disgusting.

This is very good advice, but I wonder...why are some of us this way? Is it something we’re born with? The result of some traumatic incident in childhood? I’d really like to know.

Harder said than done for the anxiety wracked amongst us, but a good goal to work for. Another technique I’ve picked up over the years is to remind myself that people spend 99% of the time thinking of themselves and not thinking about a minor stupidity that an acquaintance said.

My guess is that the medical staff doesn’t want to participate in furthering his suffering.

As I have written before, my daughter died when she was five in 2011, two months after being diagnosed with an inoperable and malignant brain tumor. There is no cure for her type of tumor - DIPG - and current treatments do little more than extend life for a few months.

Fuck bears. I no longer hike because of the danger from men.

It saddens me that so many young women are afraid to call themselves feminists. Somehow, Fox news and their ilk has succeeded in making that word translate to angry, bitchy woman. My nieces and female coworkers have occasionally expressed this idea. Fuck that. 

Oh, Lala. How I miss you.

Polyamory sounds exhausting to me. Being a complete introvert, just thinking about juggling multiple people in my life like that makes me all kinds of tired. If my marriage ever goes south, I’ll just stick to internet porn. Or maybe a sex robot if they ever get those going before I’m too old to give a damn.

The drop in interest, to me, has more to do with finding out that your male partner is also a child you have to take care of. Women do more “work” in relationships than some (not all!) men and that leads to strain. By work, I mean social relationships with other couples, house cleaning, child rearing, and so on.

It’s the “his own people” that’s most telling. At a subconscious, gut-belief level, Spicer doesn’t consider Jewish Germans and Austrians to be Germans and Austrians, i.e. Hitler’s people. He considers them wholly Other in a way that is analogous to Hitler’s own Othering of Jews, gays, Communists, dissenters, etc.
