Yayyyyy!

I'll be honest, I don't understand how royal last names work (and I'd imagine that most of the American public is with me). They don't use them, right? Does that automatically mean she's not Catherine Middleton now?

Hmm, I'm not really seeing what you're seeing. That tattoo doesn't look like any Dia de los Muertos skull I've seen (although I'm no expert).

Yeah, I see your point. But the AFA is taking it a step farther. They think that it's NSFA (Not Safe For Anytime). I feel that it's acceptable to say that things like naked bodies are fine to exist in the world, while still drawing the line that it may be inappropriate for work. That happens all the time.

I bet they keep them locked up because, like pregnancy tests, people are more likely to steal "embarrassing" items.

It's definitely a skill that I acquired only after becoming an expat. Good luck!

You'll be fine! I've been living abroad for the past two years, and I am completely up-to-date on all of my shows. The internet is amazing.

Your comment also reminds me of the churches who protest gay marriage and that want to legally define marriage as between one man and one woman. Well, what about all the religious institutions that already provide marriage ceremonies for same-sex couples? I guess religious beliefs are only valued if you're being as…

Of course, some of the women (and men, too) working as cashiers probably want birth control to be covered, so I doubt they'd all be offended by making blankets for Planned Parenthood.

omg me, too! Except that I noticed the "marriage" category and the photo of two people (one alarmed!) in bed, so my brain merged all of that into: "People who have cold feed in bed annoy their partner and endanger their marriages!"

This is such a good point. For many people, and not just "poor" people, having a severe health hardship would automatically also include financial hardship. The fact that she is able to separate these in her mind just shows how her experience with MS is not the average experience.

I fell in love with Lindy when I read her article about rewatching Titanic and the Italian sidekick's "quest for pizza."

I know this is almost a month late, but: what do you mean?

Thanks! After some googling, I can't find any links that work in my region, though, so that sucks.

That sounds insane. Do you remember the title?

Just for the record, I've never knowingly met an uncircumcised man — Jewish or otherwise — and I'm from Texas. I was under the impression that almost all adult American dudes were circumcised, but only some of them for religious reasons. (This actually confused when I was a teenager, because I knew there was supposed…

Of course, depending on what state you vote in, voting for a third party candidate wouldn't necessarily help Romney/Ryan. I'll be voting in Texas, and although it's depressing just how red that state's politics will be, knowing that the electoral votes will go to Romney/Ryan frees me up to cast my vote for a third…

I love this, all of it. Reasons: 1) I'm currently a Peace Corps Volunteer, too (who boils her water and is familiar with holes-as-toilets, but is also pretty sure that squatting is healthier because everything aligns, if you know what I mean). 2) I love poop stories.

But you could say that about TONS of other businesses. I think the only point here is that, given that we live in a society where it's IMPOSSIBLE to keep from harming anyone, how can we make the best choices, out of a variety of shitty choices? No one is saying that homophobic CEOs are totally cool, but that if we…

Although I originally read this article, like you, with a hefty dose of cynicism, the more I think about, the more I think this offset program gets to the heart of the issue for many protestors.
