Rectally? Are you on your phone and that was a typo? god i mean, anal tissue is very thin and allows for very easy absorption but there are much better ways of taking x than that O_O

My information is dated, but I did some news coverage in France regarding their unique race situation years ago. Some racially motivated rioting occurred and a recent bill had been proposed to ban "overt" religious symbols in schools and I believe government buildings (hijabs were overt; delicate crucifix necklaces…

Thanks to so many conservative Meghans/Megans/Megyns, the name just makes me shudder now.

My emergency fund is 3 months' worth of my current income (not monthly spend, or 3 months' worth of bills), and I adjust when my income changes. I didn't base it off of anything I had read; it just seemed like a good number when I calculated it out. 3 months is (hopefully) enough time to rebound from any unexpected…

I worked in a lab for a very well respected scientist, and we were told that we would be fired if we chose to get pregnant. A braver woman than me informed our boss that this was actually illegal, and he seized up like he never expected to be called out on that. (Up until this point, perhaps he never had been.) Ugh,…

Calm down, dude... no one is saying you're a bad person because you have used payday loans (or something similar, like Plain Green). John Oliver & Sarah Silverman are explaining that the douchebags who have money to stop this kind of practice are the bad guys. No one should EVER be able to charge that much interest,…

Anne Thériault and a lot of commenters, and myself, all agree that they cant pinpoint when it started, but we all know when it first got bad.

Vlogbrothers are wonderful; you are gonna love it. :) I love John & Hank, and have been watching their videos for a long time now.

Oooh, that is a good one. I should have used that when a company was trying to recruit me even after I told them to buzz off, over and over and over... I am going to use it in the future. Thanks!

Katy Perry became famous for songs like "I Kissed a Girl" and "You're So Gay." Songs designed to encourage the idea that homosexuality is taboo and that gay people are nothing but stereotypes, and that gay is an insult. Her entire career was based on and continues to revolve around other-ing minority groups.

sea sponges (kinda like reusable, natural tampons) are great for this too, for anyone else looking for alternatives! :)

Though the proceedings have not officially started, the victim is clearly already on trial. Last month, to build a case casting McBride as a credible threat, Carpenter pushed to include the deceased's texts, social media, emails, school records and a previous legal history as evidence to ascertain "whether Ms. McBride…

I was screaming and jumping for her from my house! :) WAY TO GO, GIRL! She inspires me; this show inspires me.

I agree - this show isn't silly at all! As far as being an inspiration to the average American viewer, it trumps shit like The Biggest Loser in every way. This show is all about body positivity, improving yourself (no one ever seems to get competitive with other athletes), and sharing good stories.

My boyfriend and I both had a silly conversation about celebrity crushes/exception lists. Jon Stewart is mine, and my partner had just one person on his list as well, and that person was Norah Jones. He said her voice is just so sexy. For some reason, I find this kinda cute. :)

I am sorry that you experienced issues in college. I sympathize greatly, and I hope you've gotten the help that you need. That said...

Not for me either.

Please somebody tell me:

Oh my god. I was 10 when I got my first period, and I was absolutely certain that I was dying.

I do not think the appropriate response here is, "If you cant take the heat [harassment], get out of the kitchen [Hollywood]."
