I also have Planned Parenthood as my designated donation recipient for Amazon Smile. Every little bit counts.

Your logic has no place here.

Why would all of the celebrities coming to DC purchase their dresses in the city? I mean, most of them probably live in places like NYC and LA; wouldn’t they purchase their dresses in their hometowns, and then bring them to DC? Some many questions....

Going to call this MoFo’s office all day. Everyday. He needs to know about huge, nasty clots, diarrhea during menstruation and that if he cannot discuss this items then he cannot legislate my snatch.

Were you the intern? No? Then why do you say she berated him? So women voicing their concern are “bossy” “Loud” etc.? Not your words but that is what you are saying. How about she was a concerned citizen.  

I don’t see anything indicating that she berated the staffer. Express dissent is not the same as berating. Using a “frustrated tone of voice” is also not the same as berating.

Just to clairify:

Thanks for this. I never realized that this was ok. I just, naturally, assumed it wasn’t.

Of note: Florida legislature was set next week to start hearings on SB 140, the bill that would allow open carry at many buildings throughout the state. Including airports.

The suicide thing as a measure of control is so true. Although there was no DV in my marriage, there was plenty of emotional fuckery and loads of infidelity (on his part). When finally confronted with proof, and the news I had bought a house and left his ass, he instantly “became suicidal”, especially when he couldn’t…

Fucking awful. I loathe that manipulative bullshit. I also hope her anonymity is preserved, too. Can’t imagine the kind of hell she’d go through if her identity was leaked. :(

I’m a DV survivor. Let’s be honest, the only reason he then threatened to kill himself is so that she wouldn’t call the police or leave him. My ex suddenly became suicidal when I was officially done and on my way out. Threats like that are still a form of control.

Because he’s a man with a bright future who just needs a chance in life and this woman is now trying to ruin his bright career because she’s unhappy about being cheated on by said man with bright future... usual BS from other men in positions of power who can’t understand who’s the actual victim when the victim isn’t…

In any situation, politicians won’t speak up for women who are abused. But, South Carolinians, definitely won’t. More women are killed because of domestic violence in SC than anywhere else in the nation. I couldn’t find the excellent, seven-piece series the State did on DV, but here’s an article on the numbers from…

Another gem from the bottomless mine that is the Party of Family Values.

I was in South Carolina this week visiting family for the holidays. A truck ran a stop sign and almost hit our car. We honked and yelled WTF, and the truck pulled up next to us, driven by an old guy. He got out and approached my open passenger window and then said, “The last time some bitch honked at me I put a gun to…

Your grandparents sound awesome!! I love cute science couple love.
