I would kill to find out what Rapinoe and Macron spoke about during their extended handshake.

The USWNT is a reliable source of joy for me. Joy, and an opportunity to be as obnoxiously-American as possible when taunting my British brother-in-law.

damn, that is ice cold.

lmao someone two years ahead of me managed this--they ended up in every club photo and all but 2 sports team photos. my compliments to you, that’s an ambitious path to take.

My picture does not appear at all in my high school year books, and I am so proud.

lmao it’s been so long since I saw the film that at first I thought you were talking about the scene where she falls (is pushed?) down the stairs and miscarries. which definitely had me raising my eyebrows for a second there.

lmao yeah as much as I think we all like the idea of ease-of-access for OTC birth control, the side-effects are always substantial enough that you really should be taking it with a doctor’s (or NP’s) supervision.

Where’s my SNL sketch of Mitch as Emperor Palpatine? I feel like that would be DEAD ON. 

This is an adaptation of an Israeli show to begin with, so I feel like everyone should have had an idea of exactly how sexual it was going to be when the project was first floated—in that there was source material that could easily be found and watched, versus apparent pearl-clutching being done in the middle of…

I truly have no idea why I get such a kick out of the idea of Ted Cruz, most unlikeable person on Earth, and AOC, his exact opposite, successfully joint-sponsoring a bill for OTC birth control, but if they do I feel like the universe will finally start to feel like it’s getting back on track.

The audacity of these men. I’ve come to the conclusion, through my own experiences, that the only reason they do it is because they’re intending to make young women feel uncomfortable. That’s what they enjoy, and what they’re getting out of those interactions.

I honestly can’t say I’m that bothered by pieces that are ‘lighter’ in that they don’t talk so much about policy as they do about how the person acts/treats others. Because locally, this is what matters! It’s how you elect your mayor, your state reps, and your class president! People don’t vote for candidates who are…

That is Fucked Up.

Wow! I don’t really have an issue with spoilers when they happen unintentionally, or when they happen in most contexts, but when you’re ruining something for someone just to ruin their experience...you’re just treating people poorly because you think it’s fun to treat people poorly. That guy was a dick.

Unfortunately the Little Shit title in our extended family seems to move from one cousin to the next with great frequency.

My (at the time) ten-year-old cousin looked me dead in the eye and said “Han Solo dies in the new Star Wars movie,” while I was trying to feed him and his younger siblings dinner. He wasn’t happy because I wouldn’t let him get up from the table until he’d eaten more of his banana. I gave him a pretty stern talking to,…

Unsurprisingly, I also think Beto is over-stepping by running for this office.

Right, they’re both executive roles, but the scale is so, so different, not to mention the difference between local/national affairs and international. I think it’d be fair to go mayor--governor--president to build up experience as well; governor of a state on a border or with a globally-relevant economy would…

Gah! I’ve seen that article sporadically over the years but seldom ever use the phrase, so I tend to forget about the context by the time I use it again. 

Truly, chucking all standards out the window post-2016 is a stupid idea. That’s how you continue to elect bad leaders, by saying ‘well, this is fine now’ rather than demanding that people do better.
