Most plants should be just fine being checked on every other day. Tender greens (butter leaf lettuces, etc.) would wilt if it was especially hot, but the vast majority of plants do better with less frequent, deeper waterings. Seedling do need more attention as their roots are shallower and less established, but once…

By William Butler Yeats.

Don’t worry, this is an example of a Jezebel writer offering readers only a tiny snippet of a story and then twisting it for clickbait value. There are plenty of actual news outlets covering the project (both its potential benefits AND flaws) in-depth, but you can be sure that the VAST majority of commenters here…

Hi there, I am a student leader at Portland Community College. I am helping to organize this event. I just wanted to let you know that we are addressing intersections of privilege—in fact, we have multiple workshops about this topic going on this month. Whiteness History Month has been really difficult for our school.…

He’s an 84 year old white man whose heyday was the 1960's.

Liar? Nonsense! Scotty taught me everything I need to know about being a technician working under a douchebag manager: under-promise and over-deliver.

I miss Rev. Any Rev fans?

Totally. I’m fairly confident that if you went to Labrie before his trial and asked him if he thought rape was wrong, he would have said it was. I’m also fairly confident that Labrie had no idea that his actions could be considered rape and that he was shocked and bewildered by the fact that he was on trial. He…

Awesome! Thanks for the insight.

I think the aide was trying to “defuse” rather than “diffuse” the situation.

Enjoying a fab Howell Mountain cab - I’ve not been drinking much these days, but it’s perfect for a cold night with some great food. Congrats on the paper!

Well. My mom who I love and adore (no sarcasm she is the best) called to tell me that I’m a “Real pretty girl. If only you’d slow down on the cookies.”

Joshua Malina and all banana-based baked goods fall into the Things Adrastra Loves category.

Not my favorite song of hers, but I can’t be sad when Lori McKenna wins an award.

The snark here isn’t really justified, nor is the focus on the word “luxury.” The issue centers on the fact that this would be a pretty big carve-out from existing state tax policy on what is and isn’t taxed. Right now, the only medical or hygiene items that aren’t taxed are ones that have to be prescribed and…

I know we're supposed to hate it and everything, but I'm almost a year without a cigarette so I'll stick with it.

It’s not smoking. It’s vaping. Vapor comes out, not smoke. I wish everyone would just focus on the fact that it has truly helped tons of smokers kick the habit. I smoked for 14 years, vaped for 1, and haven’t done either for 2. My dad smoked for 30 years and has been cigarette free for 2 years now because of vaping.…

So, unitarians.

If I was not a short, shorter, shortest I would wear that first dress everywhere I went. And several times a day I would spread my arms (wings) and I would stare into a mirror and I would say “Would you fuck me?” and then giggle like a maniac. And the list of places I am not welcome would just grow and grow and grow.
