Did you also screen “IT” at a sleepover? Because that was how I was exposed to that movie (my parents barely watched any TV at all, I did not have any older siblings, and I was not into scary things at all) and I wish I could remember the name of the girl whose party it was so I could look her up and yell at her. That…

Agreed. I get the “headless” part but it’s stunningly beautiful, seems to move slowly, and eat tiny particles off the sea floor. Generally when I think of monsters, I think of predators with big teeth and claws trying to destroy/eat everything in its path.  

I did NOT know that. Oh, how disappointing. Gross. Also, unless you’ve gone to school for engineering, let’s not pretend we fully understand something as complex as how a building would fall if it was crashed into by a fucking airplane. 

Couldn’t agree more. It’s my #1 pet (no pun intended) peeve. Great, your dog is the most perfect thing in the world. Guess you don’t care about:

I would try the “Just-a-cinch” if you’re looking for a leash that has a built-in collar. I’ve never used that one but it’s made out of the same material as the “Just-a-knot” and there’s very little wear on it after several years (the picture above was only a few months ago and we bought it in Jan 16).

That was my first thought too. I’m in advertising and there have been plenty of occasions where the women on my team and I concluded that it must be that women talk at a frequency that men can’t hear because we would talk and the men would ignore us and then pass off the ideas as their own. 

I also am a huge fan of Ruff Wear, but we use the “Knot-a-Leash” because it doesn’t feature any plastic (I’m sure they use decent plastic, but I have a very reactive dog so we can’t chance the plastic clip breaking during a moment when she’s hyped up).

You sound like my best friend. I have tried to give her samples of it but she refuses because she doesn’t want to fall in love and have to mortgage her apartment every 3 months to re-up. I try to only buy it during the Sephora sale periods. 

Just wanted to say that their stuff IS genuinely good (I do work in advertising, but not for beauty brands or anything even remotely related). Good Genes is stupid expensive but it works. 

Same. Literally everyone is doing this. (that doesn’t really make it right, but I sold my soul long ago). 

Same. And I’m willing to bet that there are many of us in the media world that would contribute as well. I would love to use that “blood money” for good. 

Thank you. This story has been much harder for me than other stories because it’s so similar. Luckily, I have a great support system and I know what my limits are for watching/reading the details. My worry, and I know I’m not alone in this, is for all the young women and men that have experienced a sexual assault more…

I also have most of my planners. I wrote tons of things in them, including when I got my period (P) and when I had sex (S). I went to a big party school and I fully participated. You know what I never did? I never wrote down the “parties” I was going to or did attend. First of all, I would have basically just written…

My understanding is that the new rule says you can’t come here with your partner if you’re not considered married in your home country. Since there are many countries that do not recognize gay marriage, that would mean those people can’t bring their partner here (to work, which I assume would be for long periods of…

Would be pretty hard to get married in the US if you’re not granted a visa first. 

Ooooh, I have two!

I will quit my job and spend all of my time actively working to defeat him. Garbage human. Garbage. Fuck him. Fuck them all. I am RAGING through two doses of Xanax. 

Well, I guess I should come clean, guys. I “claim” to be terrified of rollercoasters but less than a year ago, I willingly went on Goofy’s Barnstormer and didn’t even cry. (Just in case you don’t know Disney rides, it’s a “rollercoaster” for small children and I’m a 37 year old adult). 

Because “we” have been told that for our entire lives. Even though I grew up with very progressive parents, I’m certain I heard the old “oh he’s just being mean to you because he likes you” bullshit. This is the same. There are only so many times you can be told “boys will be boys” before you start believing it.

I actually think they are fingerless gloves that have an option to cover your fingers (or a sleeve with the same option, but I’ve never seen that). I’m happy to make fun of her endlessly, but shirts/gloves like that are legit (for people with normal sized arms. Sorry Hollylujah). I always thought they were just for…
