I've heard the same thing. "Midget," due to its history, is considered offensive. Proper termonology is "dwarf" or "little person."

I cannot even imagine the fortitude it takes to keep protesting after experiencing punishment from the Russian government. I salute you, ladies.

Bless you.

The main takeaway I have from this whole debacle is to act hysterical anytime I could be thought of as guilty for a crime. Otherwise, I clearly did it no matter what evidence is out there.

You and me both, lady.

I know they were in a touring production of Shakespeare together, but did they actually date? I want it to be real, if for no other reason than as a tall woman, it is very reassuring to me to see tall men dating tall women instead of very very short women (Like Kat Dennings, whom I adore and look to as a style guide…

Show her the video, judge her reaction.

I remember my mom doing surgery on my beloved bunny as a child, too.

Oh, god, Toy Story 3! I sobbed hysterically in the theater during the entire last half of that movie, and when I got home I went and dug my rabbit out of the bag she was in and cried even more hysterically, promising her I would never ever give her away or leave her and that I loved her more than life itself.

Am I the only one who hates meat made in a crock pot? It always tastes dry and overcooked. I don't believe you can cook meat for 8 hours and not have it be dry and tasteless, no matter how much juice, water, vinegar, spices, whatever you want to put in it. A lot of these other recipes sound good, though, and I know…

I'm not very good at this sort of thing, but have you tried Googling something like "vegetarian casserole" or "freezer meals?" I'd definitly keep the vegetarian modifier in there, or else you'll get a lot of condensed soup and grape soda stuff. (I wish I was kidding about the grape soda.) Plus, adding meat to anything…

Find a super cheap/free hobby and through yourself into it. You can only job hunt so much, and it's a shit show at the best of times. (Which now is definitely not.) Look at this as an opportunity to try something you've been putting off for any reason. Write your novel. Use the internet to learn yoga or a new…

I don't understand why people dislike Penny's so much. I got most of my clothes there all through middle and high school, and continue to do so today. Their styles are good! The prices are great! They're decent quality for that price! They have a Sephora! It's where I get something like 85% of my work clothes because…

This story is making me so sad. :( Brb, going to go snuggle my kitty—who was a failed breeder dump herself.

Also, needs change for each woman throughout her life—even without taking pregnancy and childbirth and birth control into the equation. These days, I use the same number of tampons on the first day of my period as I do for the next four. This is a big difference from just a year or two ago, when it was much steadier…

There is no way in hell that Thor 2 is "dubious." I can list three or four instances of two named, main female characters talking about science and shit off the top of my head!

You know, reading articles about this, and the comments on them, makes me sympathize with skinny women encountering well-meaning people talking about how "no one looks like that."

What is a gang dressing room?

Their answer is that modern healthcare causes those problems. "Look at the animals! They're fine!" They cry, while forgetting about veterinary medicine. :/

Are you my stepmom? Because she and my dad met on WoW. (Bonus: she was his online Canadian girlfriend for a while.)
