I'm still trying to wrap my mind around that article chastising dog owners for wanting a dog park in West Hollywood (LA is woefully short on dog parks) by claiming doing so meant they thought their dogs were more important than children. I mean, there are certainly dog owners in LA who think their dogs should have the

I feel like 95% of Tracy Moore's posts are jokes that are just above my head. Logging in to a hook-up app with the intent to evaluate the fuckability of other potential partners is not the same thing as noticing a good-looking person on the street.

The grammar and poor writing in general on this site is really grinding my gears lately. If they don't have a proper editor, can't the writers just trade their sloppy clickbait amongst themselves for a once over before publishing? It's distracting, embarrassing and is so rampant that it feels like the bloggers have

i think both arguments are super sound tbh. though i think there is an argument to be made for the toy being broken BECAUSE of who is playing with it, ie a middle of the road white man hosting. i think something as iconic as the late show could grow and take that next step with a fresh face (truly fresh, not just a

A feel-good anecdote, with regards to getting married because you're knocked up:

So many men don't want women earning real money because all these guys have to offer is earning power. If women as a whole could close the wage gap, these clowns would have to come to the table with good personalities, good looks, a certain weight/ height, etc. You know, all the shit that women are required to have in

I never heard anyone go, "Is it going to be Amy Adams or Gabrielle Union?"

"When I spoke to Noxon, she explained that she wanted to create a show that captured this particular time in our society: when it's becoming more common for women to out-earn their spouses and have to deal with the gender politics that arise from that."

Not to mention, I have yet to find a better cure for insomnia. Just have a great orgasm and force yourself to roll over immediately after and you'll be asleep in no time.

ETA: Oh! And when writing a paper (I am working on a PhD), I always masturbate between drafts to clear my head so I can do another round of editing.

I think there's a lot going on in the piece that really ignores the ways in which these fantasies are located in the context of a giant capitalist industry that tells you your wedding day is the most important day of your life. I think we should resist that, question why we are marketted certain ideas about how a

My thinking exactly. There's nothing wrong with people having fantasies or hobbies, but I do think there's something wrong if that involves planning out an important part of some yet-to-be-known person's life.

This is in no way a judgement of women who do fantasize about weddings from a young age, but personally, I just don't *get* the point of envisaging a wedding without having the person I want to marry in mind. Before I met my current boyfriend, I thought weddings were silly. Now that we've broached the subject of

It's interesting that you say PTSD — I genuinely believe there's a very mild (but real) degree of that going on with some folks (uh, you and me?) and various wedding issues. I loved our wedding but the run up was too stressful; the morning after our reception, I felt rattled. I was uncomfortable looking at our

You may hate both, but only one gets the bad press on here.

boarding airplanes is not about efficiency, its about making those who paid less money wait for those who paid more.

So I am getting married this June and loved the points it made. It is just super distracting to show a heterosexual couple only in this info graph. It would have been more helpful to show images of different types of couples. It's a perfect example of heterosexism.

I really liked Lydia's character. She was multi-lingual, organized and ran international business and had an amazing eye for detail. She had the brains and the balls to go out into the desert and stand up to the alternate Meth guys and didn't freak out during the hit on them, which I would have expected for a lady

"Man and wife" is funny. I'm trying to imagine alternate scenarios.

See and I see it from the other side, he's still a man, she now exists as his wife. In my mind the expression represents a loss of autonomy for ONLY the woman.

As do I! I also hate it at many weddings when the couple is pronounced MAN and wife, instead of HUSBAND and wife. Was he not a man to begin with? Did he need to be legally bound to a little wifey to make him a man? Do. Not. Want.
