That cat has serious skills. The feral guy I’ve been caring for the last few years and I finally reached a new level this summer when I received a decapitated mouse in my backyard.  It was....sweet, I guess.

For their wedding, I bought my friends a single serving spoon off their registry. Nothing else. Just a spoon. It was the cheapest thing I could find off their overpriced registry. I never received a thank you note.

I’m here for the Kate McKinnon cat lady show.

Complain. Unscientific nonsense has no place in science classes.

Ugh, that’s frustrating. I have family members that live 45 mins-1 hour from me that recently informed me that they want to see me more. I immediately invited them over to see my new-ish house and the answer was a quick “nah, but you should come to us!”. So what they must of actually meant was “we want to see you more…

Fellow child-free person here so my perspective may not be useful. Your sibling can make do without your mom’s presence for a short time. It is also possible your mom just didn’t want to go on this trip and is using the grand-kids as an excuse. Either way your frustrations are totally valid. 

That was how I read it as well. Not as drawing a line between cis and trans women but acknowledging that the lived experiences can be very different.

Thanks for this. 

I am genuinely curious to know what exactly makes this statement transphobic:

Might be time to let that friend go.  If you can’t speak your mind honestly with this person it’s not a friendship worth keeping.

Same.  Only it was an NFL football game and I sat there reading my Goosebumps book wishing the drunk adults around me would STFU.

Thanks for this. The Cosmo article wasn’t the only source I read and I understand the whole correlation is not causation thing (I used to work in cancer research). I wish I had asked for a more monitor closely but act conservatively approach. There was no guarantee that my immune system wouldn’t fix the issue on it’s…

FWIW, 34 is young and you can absolutely find a partner that doesn’t have a kid at that age. Don’t compromise on something that important.

Hey Jezzies. I stumbled upon this article today and ugly cried:

Same.  My friends are my friends because of my RBF. 

In a 2010 email, Falwell called one student at Liberty University (where I need to remind you, Falwell is president!) “emotionally imbalanced and physically retarded.”

Oh, that’s annoying. I feel like 11pm or midnight, if you are feeling generous, is a good cut off point for loud music on a weekend. You can also check your community’s noise ordinances.

I’d take that over actual dating any day.

This is awesome.  I hope it generates a lot of revenue for them as well to replace the federal funding loss. 

Good. Maybe my dad will stop bitching about how “excessive” the penalties against PSU were. I’m kidding...that will never happen.
