Apparently, it’s q now, not Q.

On the bright side, Q has a new host and he is awesome. (Although, I guess Ghomeshi having to face the assault charges in court is a bright side in and of itself.)

I think it’s the hair.

WHY IS AMERICAN MONEY ALL THE SAME COLOUR AND SIZE? HOW MUCH DO I HAVE IN MY WALLET? THIS IS SILLY. Signed, confused tourist

As a white man, I vote no, because any recognition that people who don’t look like me get means that I am diminished somehow. I’m not sure how, but it totally means that.

Just want to state this. "People should not have children if they cannot afford them!" Well, as a small business owner-"Business should not have EMPLOYEES if they cannot afford them." That means you should provide a decent salary, health benefits and paid time off, especially for family/medical related issues.

Possible issues with diva cups:

If this actually happens and isn’t just political ass-covering, then this is fantastic. Go Cuomo!

AS A POSSIBLE HELP TO YOU AND OTHERS:

I am glad they are doing it, but I see it as window dressing for the Conservatives. They are taking a hit over their refusal to hold an inquiry into missing and murdered Aboriginal women (among other things) and are looking for ways to improve their optics when it comes to women.

Pleased to see that the “But we should just give them Diva cups” brigade doesn’t seem to have made an appearance.

It’s just crazy. I’m a gay man, and basically EVERY necessity in my life, particularly medical ones, is going to be tax-exempt. Shit, even condoms are tax exempt (and they are in many places in the states) because the government recognizes public health when men are involved.

Did you not read the bit about how even talking about it is taboo? Call em Care Bears if it improves lives. If people are freely able to talk about them they are more likely to you know....use them...make more....etc.

and are often left to their own devices in creating makeshift pads out of leaves, mattress stuffing and rocks,

In the interest of fairness, some of the clutter is mine. I have a habit of holding on to stuff that I’m going to “fix” or stuff for projects that never quite get completed. But I do have the ability after awhile to say, “Gee, I haven’t sewed those curtains I was going to in the past, um, three years. Maybe it’s time…

But honestly, some people really have problems making those decisions. Mr. M is incapable of it. I’m not kidding, when he’s going through a box of his stuff to make the keep/donate/toss call I have to walk him through it like he’s 5: When’s the last time you used it? Will you need it in the next year? If you keep it,…

I can’t unsee it now. Every time I see the girl I think of Jordan on Scrubs when she starts melting.

But more importantly, being bored for a few hours isn’t the worst thing in the world. I’ve done it at work, at boring parties, at family functions. If it’s that intolerable, just don’t fucking go.

Right? What a weird suggestion. My fingers are always stained for a day or two after cooking with it.
