It occurs to me that some men think sex is always on the woman’s terms because the men ask for things and the women get to say yes or no. But the men don’t get to say yes or no because women frequently don’t ask for anything. It’s not that women don’t want anything; it’s just that our patriarchal society conditions…

Tax evasion is more important than parenting your children.

The swedish rappers who got in a fight with Bam are called “The Glacier Mafia”? And Bam’s band is called “earth rocker”?

It’s really sad to see John Stamos give up all his indie cred like that. Whatever happened to the punk ass drummer that blasted out obscure political jams that disaffected youth everywhere could rally around like Kokomo?

Too Many Spidermen

“True diversity is not found in skin tone or sexual preference. True diversity is found inside each and every citizen’s mind.”

I am trying desperately to understand things from their point of view, but I really need help. Education is bad because it challenges you to question your beliefs? I’m just baffled that anyone would really think this.

And I haven’t yet found the words to diplomatically say, “he’s a mediocre father who was there for me some of the time, but definitely loves me, and I also do love him even though he is usually the child in all of our interactions, and doesn’t have a problem expecting his daughters to mother him.”

Hugh Hefner also wants attention and he also makes a living off of women’s bodies and he also appeared on a reality show. It’s pretty interesting that suddenly wanting attention is a bad thing, according to him.

Hey now, my baby only shits herself because she can’t help it. And once she aquired enough language to say, “I stinky,” tears for that reason largely stopped. And she’s slowly but demonstrably moving towards not shitting herself. From where I sit, she’s miles ahead of these festival porta-potty seats.

My manager goes to deal with her and I was right, she did want to “give me advice on how to be a better host.”

I’d drool, but it’s Ramadan and I’ve no moisture to spare. x_x

The bartender later comes up to me to let me know that the horrible family is out celebrating the fact that they had closed on TWO condos they bought for each of their children in SOMA, San Francisco.

Huh. Daenerys is much prettier than Emilia Clarke.

Genuine question.

So I was about 10 when my mom and stepdad decided to take me and a friend camping for the first time. Not much planning was involved, just a sort of seat-of-the-pants decision to drive around West Virgina looking for a decent campground. We drove...and drove...and drove. Everything was full, save for this corporate…

Short version: our family vacation was interrupted when we were detained by US customs and had our RV confiscated, leaving us out on our asses with all our stuff. We took an 8-hour train home.

When I was in fifth grade, my family rented an RV to go to Niagara Falls (our Nantucket home was under renovation and you’ve…

Same for Lone Ranger with Johnny Depp as Tonto or 47 Ronin with Keanu Reaves. Audiences are getting tired of just watching white people, and aren’t watching these movies. Hell, I’m white, and I find whitewashing offensive and boring. I have reached the point that if there aren’t enough women in a movie or the cast is…

Thats alright, the under-performing yet competitive sibling always has to talk their game up.
