The LDS leadership has been extremely aggressive in recent years in support of refugee assistance and, as a formerly persecuted minority religion, the need to protect other detested minority religions. (There’s a cognitive blind spot there when it comes to sexual orientations, but give it some time.) The people

My father consented when he took his own Ancestry DNA test, which is how he popped up on my report. So in this story, I assume Dr. McCreepo also did an Ancestry DNA test at some point and agreed to share it with the purposes of connecting with family. Ancestry.com only uses DNA from people who have signed up for their

Wait, WHAT? So the doctor at some point previously also took an ancestry.com test, didn’t have his profile set to “private”, and then this woman came along and did a test and it NAMED him as her father?

Aunt Beast is referenced in super quick passing (montage of flying through the universe, a voice—Galifinakis?—says “there’s Aunt Beast” to what looks like Woolly mammoths in the distance). I was so excited to see her, but that was it.

Patrick, in a million years, I would have never thought you would be tapped to give Lifehacker readers “the talk”.

This is why it’s important for overarching professional organizations to put out guidance like what the ALA did with their Bill of Rights. As an individual practitioner, you can just say “we’re not promoting anything one way or the other, we’re simply following our professional standard, because that’s what our

Observations:

NOBODY CHECKED WITH ME ON THIS REBOOT

The Signature of All Things is a beautiful novel, and I wish people who criticize her for being “all about me” would read it. Even though her most famous writing is about herself, she is a talented writer who is more than capable of seeing the world through others’ eyes. That book completely changed my impression of

“...that slogan from the mug has taken on meaning that its author didn’t quite intend when she said it. Ulrich didn’t mean, exactly, to cheerlead women into exceptional acts of bravery, activism, or creativity. Instead, its purpose is somewhat simpler: to recognize the fact of ordinary women’s existence, the idea

I’ve got two hidden gems for you.

Pike Place Market is famous for a reason, great place to people watch but extremely crowded. What you want to do is stay a block behind Pike Place on Post Alley to actually do shopping or eat. The Pink Door is an excellent stop. They put on a burlesque show at night...not really my taste but you can enjoy the giant

I went to Seattle for the first time a few weeks ago and I had the best time. I really recommend doing all of the touristy things. Go to Pike Place, Seattle Art Museum, and check out the bars and the restaurants. Shop on 6th. Take pictures with the chewing gum wall. We were lucky because it was sunny for the whole

I was up there for a week mostly by myself, and really enjoyed the pop culture museum (Mopop). I found Seattle to be a quiet, lovely city. Quite a change from my native Atlanta.

“We need to launch plus as a separate brand with new fits, new models and new fabrics to ensure that the styles fit and look great.

No way. Being Queen is actually a lot of work. Work I would hate (state dinners, lots of shaking hands, lots of tours, never being allowed to state your opinion.)

Fuck this woman. Fuck fuck fuck this woman.

If that power goes to an IKEA factory, that’s Swedish power cubed!

Being Canadian, the Code 45* team is sometimes confused by the nuances of your American political system. However, we are aware of the rather mysterious practice known as “midterm elections”, and we know the next of them will go down in November 2018. We are also aware that this will involve contests for all the seats

I like to pretend that this is the Scourging of the Shire. On December 31, Donald Trump and Steve Bannon will attempt to leave the country together, but Bannon end up cutting Trump’s throat and the press corps will then shoot him full of arrows. Then we’ll all go home and have second breakfast, at least until Barack
