Are they actually making more female action figures, including the women on the merchandise that otherwise features the cast, etc, or just changing what the site suggests?

Like those parents don’t police the shit out of their children no matterwhat the signs say. Not long ago, I overheard a mom tell her son Duplos wouldn’t be a good gift for whoever they were shopping for because they were for boys. My husband heard some parents telling their kid he wouldn’t like Inside Out because it…

Watching reruns of this and Roseanne (the earlier seasons anyway) was a defining aspect of my childhood.

Blind squirrels, stopped clocks, and Rand Paul. It happens, no reason to feel anything about it.

There is a long history of cops deciding on who the perpetrator is and just telling that person over and over, “We know you did it” until they get a confession rather than actually investigating.

When my son was just barely one, he was Finn, Dad was Jake, and I was Marceline. We did it in a pretty low key way, but people went nuts over the two of them at the mall while I was taking care of something.

And the teacher took it and put it in her desk. Clearly the way to handle an explosive device.

Whatever, asshole. You aren’t sorry you said it; you’re sorry you got caught.

What gets me is, how expensive could it possibly be to run? I wonder how much the Wall Street concept of having to make more money forever and ever plays a role.

And the little girl is Marceline on Adventure Time.

Yup. And with all the mergers, it may not be clear that a hospital is now under an umbrella organization that is pulls these kinds of stunts. I’m lucky to live in an area with two major hospital organizations, and I’d have to be unconscious to go through the doors of the Catholic one no matter what.

HBO didn’t care in the past because it let them collect the data they needed to know when to launch HBO Now. I bet they crack down soon now that you can get it without cable.

Below in a race to the bottom.

The things I remember about sex ed (which was comprehensive in my district) are that my softball coach had a wide array of condoms her students had given her over the years, and she would demonstrate the capacity of a condom by filling it with water (“Size is no excuse, kids”). She also had taught the birth video so…

Of course a toddler’s body shouldn’t be sexualized, but this child’s body was put in an explicitly sexualized context, which is weird and gross. It’s not child porn, but definitely a step below the worst things I’ve seen on Toddlers and Tiaras.

You know, now that I think of it, I’m not sure I’ve heard of a case where the only signs of abuse were this triad and the person admitted to doing it outright. The video we were forced to watch about not shaking our baby before we left the hospital featured a man who shook his toddler son during a longer beating that…

Yeah, it’s very strange. Where I live, the police cruise past the parks a couple times a night, typically looking for teenagers being teenagers. And how did no one else use the playground in May over a 44 hour period? You are going to be in pretty close proximity to other people, especially at the swings, and it…

Even though my providers did dating ultrasounds, I got a fair bit of disbelief from three different medical professionals when I got pregnant when I couldn’t tell them the first day of my last period. I was like, “January sometime?”

Yeah, but he isn’t mentioned as a producer, and what he blurbs says the studio is still looking for a writer.

Exactly. Why not donate the price of each meal to a food bank instead of having food thrown away? What a bizarre, wasteful, ostentatious thing to do.
