Edible Woman is so great.

Jesus, if you’re going to make kids wear fucking t-shirts over their swimsuits, MAYBE JUST DON’T HAVE A POOL PARTY AT ALL. How unpleasant.

If I were Canadian, I might be more hopeful, too.

I freaking LOVE “The Edible Woman”!

Anybody* who breaks the law...

I was was flipping through Wilderness Tips the other day and came upon one story that game me a lot of hope (I unfortunately forget which one).

Kinda smacks of the “welfare queen” myth doesn’t it?

I was a single mom for about 4 years, and in order to keep my job I had to get a government subsidy to cover the costs of childcare. I worked, I paid taxes, I just couldn’t afford the ridiculous costs of daycare (and I worked as a preschool teacher, I know why those costs are so high.)

Nice to see the detective for her legal team is willing to let Casey pay him in sex since she currently has no income. What an understanding soul.

God bless you. I’m at work and can’t view the video. And, regardless of where i am, i can’t stand lazy “journalism” that only links to someone else’s video and hard work.
