Dude, it won't be the interwebs if we weren't able to post silly cat gifs, debate, post silly cat gifs, use too many words, post silly cat gifs, and talk over each other and shit.

I honestly do get what you're saying—mostly I like being a snarky bitch about this stuff because it's kind of easy. Forgive me? :)

I don't like Madonna - I like "Like a Prayer" and that's about it - but I hate how every time anyone talks about her they have to mention how she's (supposedly) desperately clinging to her fading youth. Even this article talks about "Madonna's worn performance of Madonna." (I'm singling that line out because it's in…

I know I'm going to get throttled for this, but there's some baby in her mostly-insane bathwater. I am not a fan of GMO crops. This is not because I think they are poisonous or "toxic" it's because I am not convinced that enough independent research was undertaken with regard to how the GMO's effect the food system as…

Flag on the Katy Perry blurb: Unnecessary cattiness about someone sharing something about their faith and feeling proud of an achievement. Respect penalty, lose 5 cool points.

I don't know. I like the fact that she's still unapologetically sexual. It really feels like we try to deny women the range of expressing their sexualities as they get older - and it smacks of ageism. The trope of the cougar (hypersexualized older woman who has the desire we only tend to permit college sorority girls…

The woman is 56 and she can still go out there and KILL it better than divas half her age.

We should cheer women over 50 who expose their bodies to society. Women, as they age, are told to "put it away." I view her outfit as denying patriarchy the voice to tell her what the fuck to do. Why should she put it away? Why can't she be anything she wants to be, even a matador. She's saying FUCK YOU to the…

Hah okay - well I am saying that the majority of people who I have called women "exotic" in an objectifying way are white men, when they can't discern what a woman's ethnic background is.

i have outed myself as a stupid - more googling before typing. not used to seeing Welsh outside of Wales ever ever especially in America! tho we do have an italian town in Wales which is v lovely. but by the by. thx bbs for the corrections

I finally took my doctor to task at my checkup earlier this week. She asked about my weight for the billionth time and I said "you have my medical record. Right in front of you. You can see that I see the nutritionist every two weeks, and have for two years. You can see I've been to an endocrinologist in the last…

This is not actually correct, there are problems with the accuracy of the BMI formula in itself. It is both outdated and inaccurate. And even if it WERE accurate, the creator explicitly said that it was not to be used as a measure of individual health, ever, not that it would work for the average person but not for…

Without the 's' it does not conform to english rules and it is an english word now. It's like how i don't tell my friends i had a great time in Firenze, or Roma, or Napoli, because they would think i'm an asshole. I would, however, be for adopting italian capitalization rules. Just seems less fussy.

Damn dude. How about a trigger warning next time? I come here for happy kitty stories. Gah!

Everyone is allowed to be a fuck up in some part of their life— I can deal with him being a sometimes slob because when he does something dumb he cleans up his mess without being chewed out. He is also brilliant and funny and kind and caring and my best buddy, so a once monthly visit from the Folgers Fairy (or this…

NO. I'm bringing this out of the greys to highlight a VERY WRONG OPINION.

No, I'm not. ALL BC methods can fail. IUDs can fail. However, I would argue that it is not "giving cover" to anything to point out facts that can be backed up by science. The best research indicates that if a woman practices an informed form of NFP/FAM (since it goes by multiple names) her success rate is generally…

To be fair, when NFP is practiced correctly, it's effectiveness rate is quite good.

I'm a fat person. I watched exactly ONE episode of this show.

I am sore. I am hungry. And I am laughing. Now I'm more sore. No regrets.
