Oh thank God you're here. MY PEOPLE. I love those smutty books with every fiber of my being.

We have a message I think that reaches women...
If Republicans would stop attacking abortion rights, Democratic women wouldn't have to talk about it so much. We thought that shit was settled in the early 70s, and the right keeps bringing it up.
You're assuming that parents have enough money that one can not work so that they can stay home and teach their kid.
Honestly, all this makes me feel sorry for her. I am not at all condoning fetishizing groups/people/counter-cultures but to me all this just screams that she's trying to find an identity for herself because she feels like she doesn't have one. Like maybe she feels there's no real substance to herself. And that's sad…
This is super obnoxious. Miley's whole persona right now is pretty damn obnoxious.
I'll agree with this. I have seen three grandparents slowly fall apart and every one of them has had massive dementia so that is what I'm scared of. I am terrified of losing my mind and my ability to talk and losing control of my bowels. I'm terrified of becoming a burden to my kids - someone that they visit in a…
Do you also say that about public education?
Let's go back to Econ 101. When you *can't* pay for it (oh, I don't know, because Republicans cut education/food/welfare programs designed to help people get back on their feet) society ends up picking up the tab. Unplanned pregnancies cost the US around $11 billion per year. Whether you like it or not, you're already…
The thing is, if you don't allow affordable health care (birth control, abortions, etc) to poorer women who need it, you're going to end up with a lot of kids they can't afford, and will need to be subsidized by the taxpayer. Ie. you. And it will cost more. A lot more.
Excuse me while I go steal this dress and parade around my house in it. I want to wear it every day forever.
Your description of your dog in the tub - the hardest I've laughed all day. I'm sorry you have to deal with that, but also not, for the sheer joy you just brought into my hum-drum day.
I never thought I'd be GENUINELY BUMMED to have Jon Stewart on my tv, but I'm loving John Oliver so much I don't want it to end. I'm really holding out hope for some sort of weekend roundup edition of The Daily Show that Oliver could host. He's in no way WASTED as a correspondent — but he has so much more to give!
I am saddened that he isn't the "official" palace crier but am engladdened by the randomness of a weirdo totally stealing the spotlight for being weird and awesome and adding even more joy to an already joyous occasion.
I have watched every season but the first and each year the actual amount of the show I watch has decreased more and more. I basically fast forward through everything but the performances at this point. Nigel is a perv. Mary is just obnoxious. And the guest judges rarely have anything of value to add, except for…
The wedding ring is traditionally made from a nugget of Welsh (yellow) gold in the Queen's collection. The engagement ring, of course, was inherited from (and chosen by) Diana, and in this case sentimentality clearly trumped matching rings.
I think it's based more on if all hospitals operated on the same flat-rate pricing, which we know they don't. State hospitals don't have the same high ass prices as private hospitals. Some equipment costs more. Or less. Some doctors cost more than others. If you take the average of all of this, somewhere between…
Yeah, but your visits aren't free, they are being paid by your insurance company. The doctors and hospitals are getting their money one way or another. I think that's where the $30K figure is coming from. Total cost, regardless of who pays it. It seems pretty legit to me. (The numbers, not the idea of gouging pregnant…
