Look, just yesterday I came to terms with the fact that if you are a mother and are trying to shape a career something is going to get a little less at times. I have a job I like but it's not a career. I don't even know what a career means anymore in these times, but I digress.

That's a terrible article. "Lean in" isn't about becoming the perfect parent while simultaneously climbing the corporate ladder, practicing a healthy life and being flawless in every other way. The book squarely acknowledges that no woman could ever live up to this myth. The book is about growing the confidence to run

Ugh, I feel like telling the commenters at Gawker that they're only allowed to discuss the subject if:

I'm an attorney named Krystal. Shockingly, I am qualified, even with my trashy name.

Cultural appropriation explained in one gif:

For clarity's sake, the 14th Amendment DOES apply to states. A purely 5th Amendment issue would be federal only, but the purpose of the 14th was to extend 5th Amendment equal protection to state actions.

Was Prop 8 struck down? I thought it was dismissed because they said the people suing over it didn't have standing. That's not the same thing as being struck down, is it?

The inaccuracy of this headline is infuriating. Contractors are NOT the same as agency employees. They aren't even managed by EPA employees. They are managed by CONTRACTORS, who bid for contracts with governmental agencies.

Not to be nitpicky, but our name is "Dartmouth College" not "Dartmouth University."
