If you have the money to pay the fees and expenses, you can find a lawyer to represent you. He has the money, so he has a lawyer.

People: it doesn’t look like a verb in English because this is in Swedish. In Swedish plenty of verbs look like this. That also make me feel like our opinions on what it sounds like are irrelevant, because 90%+ of us are looking at it with English biases and it wasn’t made for English.

Someone used “pet the bunny” in a Dan Savage column once. I'm rather fond of that.

Maybe Margret Hamilton? She worked for NASA and was the lead designer of the software for the Apollo missions! Her code also prevented the abortion of the moon landing.

I actually have been waiting for this and how about other biopics of famous women while we’re at it? Elsa Schiaparelli, Chrissie Hynde, Eleanor Roosevelt , Sally Ride—the possibilities are endless. Get on it Hollywood!

so, you mean, like a headband cozy? a fricking, goddammed headband cozy?! that’s so ridiculous and pretentious that you’re probably right.

This is too long, but I have Thoughts. (I’m in the greys though, so no one will see this anyway).

I totally agree with you about the criticism of his looks. It’s mean-spirited, unnecessary, and doesn’t add anything to the conversation.

She’s obviously right about the risky behavior. That’s objectively true. The tension here is between what “is” and what “should be.”

I have been lucky so far but I think what aging takes us to, particularly late in the game, is appreciating smaller and smaller things more and more. My eighteen-year-old sense would have thought that was horrifying but I don't now.

I can’t tell if they’re all boring af or if it’s just the cranky? Someone told me today that the cranky was coming from Mercury being in retrograde. I stabbed her with a thermometer.

Just my gut talking here, but isn’t Jewel’s use of remiss incorrect? I always thought it meant sort of negligent and it doesn’t seem to fit that sentence in that case. Of course, I left school about a million years ago, so I’m probably wrong.

Proof positive that I am OLD- I grew up 10 minutes away from the real Disneyland, long before there was anything called Disney World in FL. In those days, it was so close, so cheap, and so innocent that my Mom could drop her two eldest (Me! and my Big Bro) along with whatever close friends or cousins were around for…

I’ve been reading a lot of Ian Rankin lately.

Anybody have room for secondhand drama in their hearts? Basically, one of my coworkers asked me to go to a concert with him and I FREAKED OUT and was like “as friends, or more than friends?” which I can’t believe I actually said. Background: I’m extremely introverted, but I’m good at faking extroversion at work. We’ve…

You gotta know when to hold ‘em, know when to fold ‘em.

45. Writes self serving humblebrag posts on Jezebel and shows wife all the stars he got because he’s an awesome feminist.

You know what? You may be right & Now I kinda feel like an asshole. It wasn’t even a year ago that he was kicked out of a live performance of Cabaret for talking & smoking, chasing a homeless man for his bag of McDonald’s (seriously), & getting arrested & subsequently muzzled for spitting on the cops. Let’s hope he…

Much like his presidential campaign, it’s not going to go anywhere, and, much like his campaign, it’s going to prod Hillary Clinton to make affordable higher education a bigger part of her own platform.

It’ll be interesting to see her try; from what I read he’s stuck to his positions for a really long time, plus he’s swift on the uptake (aka quick witted). He and Warren are the two politicians I have real respect for; I had hopes for Obama but even early on, I heard enough to convince me he was ‘Democrat Lite’...
