I hated bachelorettes as a participant, I’m not going to watch one. Could I have a (good) superheroines save the world movie instead?

Really what they should do is have the baby essentially a piggy bank that requires X amount of dollars per day on diapers, wipes and food. If the bank doesn’t get it’s daily deposit in time, you fail the class and lose the money.

MAYBE INSTEAD OF TRYING TO SCARE TEENS OUT OF PARENTHOOD WITH CUTE BABIES WE SHOULD, I DUNNO, GIVE THEM PROPER SEX ED AND ACCESS TO GOOD CONTRACEPTION. Just a thought.

In what sad universe is salad a cheat food?! That actually made me a little sad for her. Food is supposed to be enjoyed!

it does...i guess. but the RULES DONT MAKE SENSE. hide and seek should be literally hide and then wait til someone finds you.

Yes! It was strange and exhilarating!

I never loan friends money but if I can part with some when they really need it- I see no problems giving it to them without expecting repayment. 9 out of 10 times, I eventually get it back.

My notifications have disappeared but when I found them in the menu I saw I’ve been followed by like half a dozen sub blogs including the Slot so yay me? Did this happen to anyone else?

...... is this Steven Tyler with a good blowout

I hated Jonathan Crombie as Gilbert Blythe. Hated him. HATED him. I love everything else about the Megan Follows version, but he ruins it for me.

I love the MF version but it is not flawless. For example, MF was 18 when the series started and was NEVER believable as an 11-year-old.

As someone who also has been in and out of Ed clinics most of her life I too find this infuriating... I had to sit through a lunch the other day with someone going on and on about how her raw vegan diet changed her life with all these wanna-be yogis just eating it up...I had to excuse myself post outburst how what she…

I love this question. A student last year in one of my courses tried to write about American culture and its love of extreme diets...she couldn’t quite get to the seam, but it’s an idea I’ve been thinking about ever since, especially as my brother went paleo. Wow, he only talked about food for almost a year. And it…

(sees article about Patti giving up sugar)

Why is it that people feel the need to proselytize about their dietary and exercise choices? Having been in and out of treatment for a variety of different EDs, it really disturbs me how normalized ultra-restrictive diets have become. It’s true that beauty is not a one-size-fits-all prospect, but I don’t see how that…

WHAT?! How is that the basis for a tv show, let alone like five tv shows?!! Is it about crimes at sea?!!

So it does have an end, though?

Garden thread !

Wow, no idea how she did it! The gossip-mongering public is usually all over the fertility status of lauded Nigerian feminist authors who give interviews to the Financial Times.

Side note: With my first pregnancy I was shouting it from the rooftops at 8 weeks, only to hear no heartbeart at 12 weeks, so there may be some sort of unintentional superstition at play.
