I absolutely can't believe that you are comparing maternity leave with a man wanting to take a backpacking trip.

And yet, somehow, pretty much every other industrialized nation in the world manages it.

8 weeks unpaid is the norm.

this kind of attitude is so shortsighted, it's fucking unreal. True story: I get emails from headhunters and recruiters very frequently. I've turned down all offers I received this year, bc I intended to take maternity leave and so didn't want to switch jobs. My company BENEFITTED from my pregnancy, bc ny offering…

You know that EVERY SINGLE ONE of these dragons has at least two kids, a stay at home wife, and a mistress.

Yes, let's shit on Blake Lively and pretend shitting on her is "unifying." Let's take a dump on a young, pretty, successful woman. I'm sure it has nothing to do with her being successful and pretty and apparently stable. We shit on the unstable Lohans - lets also shit on the boring girls who show up for work on…

Anyone willing to spend $132 on a fake-dirty t-shirt deserves to spend $132 on a fake-dirty t-shirt.

One day my weird ass neighbor came outside and started telling me about all the old tenants in this house and how each family seemed to have a break-in or a death living here. Statistically that's not too strange, but now…

A couple of years ago a local newspaper in my (European) city, as part of a WWII memorial, published a list of all the houses where Jewish people had been taken away by the Nazis. The house where I was born and another one I had lived in for years were on it, as were a lot of places where friends and family lived at…

Oh shit. This is the infamous guy who was dumping bodies in West Alton and only got caught because he sent a MapQuest map of West Alton to the FBI and they worked with MapQuest to determine who generated the map BECAUSE NO ONE PURPOSELY WANTS TO GO TO WEST ALTON.

Let's just all remember to take Rita Skeeter with a grain of salt. She is known for writing things that aren't necessarily true. Everyone is posting that Ron is balding now; when I read that, in my mind I imagined him constantly asking Hermione if it's true, while unconsciously touching his head. Also, there is NO WAY…
