I’m guessing you’re someone who grew up in the same area as your grandparents and most of your relatives? My family is far-flung, & I don’t have the money/vacation days to fly out to different grave sites to take care of anyone’s plot. It’s not a small thing for a lot of people... which is probably why my parents and…

Had to watch without sound since I’m at work - does the chest compression shown really work on people with breasts, or are we supposed to use a different technique with that? I cringed watching...

“Hey, look - proof that other women find me attractive and worth committing to!” -dumb idiots

But did you post photos of yourself? And your actual age? Because it sounds like this program isn’t searching by Facebook profile, just by your first name, age, location. So you may have solved nothing.

Did you know that children in a doctor’s office are more likely to be sick than children who aren’t taken to a doctor? And that correlation equals causation? Someone should talk to these people about the link between piracy and global warming.

I was listening to an interview with Jim Gaffigan where he said watching Phyllis Diller was one of the first times he really considered doing stand up and I was just so happy to have a male comedian recognize a female one as an inspiration

Because those bbc shows air on PBS - put Luther on a different channel and I think you’d get much better numbers, just because of the show’s genre and style/pacing. I hope Netflix helps grow that audience.

I had older female cousins who I wasn’t close enough with to see all the time, but who were open with me about their sexual experiences. The one that stuck with me the most was one who told me that holding out for love feels unrealistic, but to at least hold out for a guy who will stick around until at least the next…

She is so unbelievably fake on that show that it totally turned me off her. Like got to the point where the camera would cut to her for judging and just the sound of her voice grated because I knew she was about to try to be cute, or say something ridiculously manufactured and try to pass it off as a genuine moment.

My boyfriend gets embarrassed but really because he doesn’t know what to get and feels out of his depth in the femining hygiene aisle. But when he’s been given very specific instructions, it’s a point of pride that he has a girl in his life he’s buying them for.

That’s the reason my mom discouraged me from tampons at first - she made them available if I wanted them but didn’t push it because she knew I went to the bathroom at school maybe once a day if at all and worried I’d rather let the tampon sit than take a trip to bathrooms I hated. Plus she was already worried I’d give…

I heard an interview with Emily Blunt once where she said Meryl barely talked to her during filming for Devil Wears Prada - then on the last day came to see her, gave her a hug, apologized for having to be a bitch to her for the sake of the character... Anne Hathaway said basically the same thing. So Meryl must do…

Just this weekend one of my boyfriend’s aunts told me I look like his sister. He was very unhappy (I have her hair texture & height, but that’s pretty much it, I tried to reassure him... but it didn’t seem to help).

My brother and I look so much alike that people who know him but not me have come up to me in public to ask if I’m his sister, & vice versa. Yet we also got asked once if we were dating. Mostly funny more than gross I guess?

This came up kind of early in my relationship with my boyfriend - a doctor thought we were married and called me Mrs Hisname by mistake. I half-joking said I didn’t really want his name anyway, and he acknowledged that the idea of him changing his name felt so strange to him that he understood why women kept their…

I’ve always liked the idea of my last name being a kid’s first name - and it’s unusual but not totally out of left field as a boy’s name. So a son would just end up with both names as his name, & everything would be equal. My current boyfriend’s last name works as a girl’s first name, so there’s a part of me that…

I get people sending things to Mr & Mrs Lastname without thinking - and there’s a part of me that thinks that if you want to have one name for your household, if all things were otherwise equal there would be a 50/50 shot you’d pick the husband’s name anyway. But Mr & Mrs Hisfirst Hislast is just such a slap in the…

He’s basically doing what he can to maintain Republican turnout in November. If they’re not excited about the nominee, they’re excited about getting a conservative on the bench to destroy abortion rights etc. It’s politics - and much as I hate republicans, I get the tactic and would want a democratic senate to stall a…

My friend is a lawyer who works on custody cases for low income communities, and they say it’s heartbreaking to explain to parents that before, the bar was this low for keeping your kids. Now that the kids have been taken away, the bar gets raised this high to get them back. And things that didn’t matter before are…

How were these people eligible for foster care in this case? They seem fundamentally incompatible with the concept
