right here. at my desk. in 2016. at age 29.

J.Lo: Are u Ellie?

Ariel’s mom sounds like such a monster. I’m very glad she had her older sister there to offer some protection.

My mom’s been gone for many years, but I feel like I did a good mom deed today.

Yes. Mainly because that’s completely and obviously different.

“Im speaking as someone who has never witnessed something like that”

I’ll show you all.

Absolutely a kid would trust Paterno over their parents or cops. Paterno was viewed as almost god-like. Akin to a priest with as much as he was held as a moral figure. Of course, a child would equate that with the person they could trust the utmost. (Are you not from the area? I am, believe me on this. Actual churches…

Those hoofbeats you hear are the legions of PSU homers coming to defend Saint Joe’s honor. (I’m persona non grata among many of my fellow PSU grads because I dared to ask them if they would be so forgiving if it happened to one of their kids.)

I’m reminded of how much she’s influenced other artists when I see this. Also, I still love her. #old

I fell in love and never fell out.

Just because that's part of her motivation doesn't mean Chloe's slut-shaming is justified. You don't see Chloe slut-shaming Channing Tatum for using sexuality and his body for money and attention in Magic Mike, which is proof of her sexism. Chloe, like Pink, is doing the same old same old: pointing out how another…

I have talked about this before but I think it’s worth repeating: I work doing budget projections for health programs in a government agency. Either I or someone in my team talks directly to republicans about the consequences of their proposals on the budget. Their proposals often result on a net cost. Their response…

I’ve never fully understood what makes a particular photo male gazey. Could be because I’m old but it seems as if any photo that’s even slightly sexy could be seen as male gazey. Is it based on who’s controlling the image or how the person is posed/dressed? How about the type of pin up art or imagery that supposed to…

Exactly. "I felt was a little inappropriate for young women to see. I would hate for young women to feel they need to post certain photos in order to gain likes, retweets, favorites, and male attention." Your feelings don't determine what ind of nudity is or isn't appropriate for other people to see. Women aren't…

A super chill person doesn’t arbitrarily decide that it’s inappropriate for other women to see other women posing nude or decide that proving that women are good for more than one thing (whether it’s sex, modesty, motherhood, being a wife, or anything else) means that it’s not okay for women to make a specific choice…

Regardless of what you think of them, can we just NOT refer to people as trash, like, ever? Is that too much to ask, to acknowledge that people are not worthless and disposable?

I kinda miss the days of just walking into a record store to buy an album. Can we even do that with this?
