As a fat woman, one thing I noticed after the march on the way home is that all day I didn’t think about by body once. Now, I am pretty body-positive most days and don’t obsess or diet - but I’m an (almost) 300 lb woman and it’s hard to get through the day without thinking about it. But all day, it just didn’t…

Ha, yes, I suppose this is where I’ve landed since I wrote this last night. I’m making a commitment to listen to the criticism and even though I haven’t internalized it just yet, I’m going to keep reading everything I can until I have clearly inside of me.

While women’s rights activists are (and should be!) still riding the high from Saturday’s global women’s marches

I’m really hoping for a solid answer to this as well. This piece (and that sign that is posted as the first comment — that, in some photos from the march I’ve seen held by a man, which, frankly, rubs me the wrong way) suggests that I would be welcome there, while others suggest that BLM activists prefer that white…

Thank you! I called them this morning after reading this! :)

One thing I wonder - and maybe you guys can help... I live in a progressive state with really progressive representatives (so thankful). Yes, on some issues I feel like they need guidance but otherwise they vote with my interests in mind and I’m very happy with them. Aside from helping them continue to be elected,…

This, exactly. The trainers we went to when I got my dog also did work in film and they had AMAZING dogs who they’d train to do all sorts of stunts and scenes. I thought the saddest thing about the GSD who was scared of the water was, with positive training and exposure to the noise, you probably could get a dog to…

Right? I know people in the thread are all “har har har” but... why wouldn’t his grandkids at least get use out of this?

Here’s that first video that blew my little teenaged mind for future reference:

Huh? I feel like you’re being pretty accusatory for someone who doesn’t know me.

As someone who has loved Jennifer Holiday for a long time, I was so disappointed last night and so pleased she made the right choice (and such a beautiful apology) today.

I just went to the Women’s March website after reading that comment to double check the mission statement. Maybe it’s in that NYTimes article (which reads like a breakdown of a FB argument?) but based on the mission statement and guiding principals on the website, race is one component of the focus of the march, not…

Thanks!

Thanks!

Oh, that’s possible - trying again!

Hmm, that code’s not working for my $44 order...

Let the people you know in the MTC know that everyone already knows the choir is really great. No need to display it on this stage - doing so actually disrespects the institution of the choir (this is from a non-Christian, non-Mormon, Christmas music enthusiast who is sadly removing the MTC from my Christmas…

I’m really surprised this isn’t mentioned more.

It’s an okay song, but Mariah Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas is You” and Darlene Love singing “Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)“ are the only Christmas songs that anyone needs.

I agree! I was so glad Van Bramer organized it - uplifting is the right word.

Was that the guy in the red plaid shirt?? Because, if so, he also started “Hands too small, can’t build a wall!” which was my favorite one of the day. I couldn’t shout it without giggling.
