You can police every aspect of your speech, you can wear the right things, you can get all the degrees and expertise, you can write the most fucking eloquent and heartbreaking courtroom statement and still there are men who will not hear you because they just don’t listen to women.

I cannot imagine that. I just cannot. My kidlet was what I called a sleep screamer. She would be fast asleep, and then suddenly raise her head, scream at the top of her lungs (while still asleep!), continue to scream for about 5 minutes, and then drop back asleep like nothing had happened. This happened about once an…

I made a half-hearted attempt to get the first one to sleep in a bassinet, but I’m a hardcore weenie when it comes to crying. With the second one it was like, fuck it and welcome to the family bed kid.

Ooh, girl, I feel you. Still haven’t moved past the resentment I feel toward my husband who thought (and still thinks) he’s “babysitting” when left with our daughter (who is 11 now!). And because he was back at work (and I was weird about 100 percent breast in the first few months), there were no night shifts.

This is just me talking out of my ass, but I think T Swift has more chemistry with Karlie Kloss than she has any guy she's been linked with. That means nothing except I think she and Karlie should date (despite there being no evidence that either one of them is at all attracted to women). I just... the heart wants…

If it were actually about corruption, then Temer or Cunha would have been impeached too. Cunha, who led the impeachment process, took $40 million in bribes:

The process may have been legitimate but the ‘crime’ she was charged with was a practice that other Brazilian presidents have done before. At most, she should have been censured, but it was merely a pretext to get her out of office.

Jezebel also publishes articles that expose the“retrograde culture” of the US, though. There are articles about women’s rights being rolled back almost every week.

This still involves a girl who: 1. was statutory raped because she is too young to consent; 2. didn’t consent to having 25 guys watch her have sex, and again, couldn’t have consented because statutory rape; 3. didn’t consent to star in an adult video, and couldn’t have consented because again, she is not an adult; 4.…

I’m not the only one who thinks Julie Andrews could still do Mary Poppins effortlessly, right?

Dear Rape Apologists from the Rio article:

And the gorilla “debate.” Fuck everyone and their opinions and fuck everyone and their actions.

Jennifer Ehle is the one true Lizzie Bennet, thankyouverymuch.

I put this story in the “there but the grace of God go I” category. And I’m agnostic. My kids are now 19 and 12, but I’m still haunted by enough near misses when they were little. All moms have stories of the time their kid wandered off. I’m thankful mine were never recorded for national news.

That was my first thought too! People kept saying “maybe don’t bring your kids to a zoo/watch them around dangerous animals” and I mean, it’s a zoo. Its bread and butter are families with kids coming to look at these animals, including and maybe especially the dangerous ones. I assume they designed it with said…

I mean, as a parent, you tend to assume that places like this that are targeted toward families, have precautions in place. You tend to assume that the zoo is set up to prevent people from getting IN as much as to prevent animals from getting OUT. Sometimes I have looked at a zoo exhibit skeptically wondering if a…

I was at this exact exhibit about a year ago with my then 2 & 3 year old sons and it is a miracle this is the first time a kid has fallen in. The rails are easy for a kid to get past, the bushes are nothing to a toddler, and the length and twisting of the path makes it so if you do lose site of a kid you have to run…

Why do people on this website hate so hard on people’s faith? Specifically the Christian faith? Any story that mentions God in the slightest is met with comments about “imaginary friends” or “sky daddies.” So fucking disrespectful. I know there are a ton of shitty “Christians,” but this lady has shown no indication…

Everybody’s a perfect parent on the internet.

Mrs. Lutkin, as a follow up to my other comment on this article, I’ll post about an incident that I think it’s kind of relevant, and shows the prevalence of the culture of misogyny, here in Brazil, and its connection with right-wing politics. In the end, I’ll post the link to a few Brazilian news articles on it and,…
