I agree, but it’s the not-so-self-aware moms that ruin it for everyone.

New parents can be a special kind of entitled. It’s funny.

When we were kids, my sister and I baptized a litter of kittens.

Not surprising considering the history and real legacy of Mother Theresa. Just following in her footsteps of actually hurting people instead of really helping. Luckily there are loads of amazing and cool nuns, but Mother Theresa and her order were/are not these people.

Actually, Saudi women are highly educated... they’re just not allowed to work outside the home.

Note that neither of these refusals involve the word “no.” They are, to most of us, nonetheless clear. They include a number of tactics that many of us recognize: delay; prefaces or hedges (uh, well …); palliatives like appreciation; and explanation. The last is interesting: explanations usually go like this: “I

No, it is not misogyny. This is slavery.

Speaking as someone who lives but a couple hundred miles from Saudi Arabia, and knows many Filipinos, Indonesians, malaysians, etc. Who live and work in Dubai.... never, ever, ever set foot for any reason in Saudi Arabia. You enter, you are a slave. Period. Your life is not yours. Do not go. No matter how bad it is at

Please forgive this rant and don’t come at me with any bullshit “you’re anti Islam” comments.

God bless chemical manipulation that keeps me from being in pain for three to five days a month.

I take it very seriously. Without that “chemical manipulation” I would’ve lost my ovaries to PCOS years back. Definitely not sexy. Neither is unplanned pregnancy or any of the other painful conditions the BCPs can treat. Humans intentionally alter the ways their bodies function all the time, since time immemorial.

In Europe, the acceptable level is <10ppm.

I don’t get it. There have been thousands and thousands of years of slavery, and not just black slaves, but slaves across alll spectrums. They were viewed once upon a time as war prizes. And, as an American POC I wasn’t offended. But I tend to view history in a broader spectrum than just an American one. Eh.

*You’re *absolves *there are

Right on the money.

While many of these men have serious mental issues, I cringe when people mistakenly call them “sociopaths”. They aren’t sociopaths, they’re immense narcissists. A sociopath doesn’t suffer from narcissistic injury (in other words, blows to their egos) as they view other people so below them, as only

I don't think it is. I think it's massive ego and entitlement. The world did not give them the cushy job and hot babe they've been promised on TV. Cue: rage.

Not to detract away from the rapes and murders because those are awful, it was nice to read that she was heard by the authorities and the judge didn't just throw her into prison and that the system worked for her. I super fucking needed that today.

His mass would fuck up all the planets’ orbits.

“I was never given the opportunity to work partime, flex-time, no accomadations to my schedule for family time”

I agree with this 1000%. Single and childless women are seen as having no excuse for not working weekends or late at night. What makes it worse is that they often don’t have a partner to be at home for deliveries/repairs, or otherwise back them up. If you have a child, it’s ok to leave at 4 pm. If you don’t, you’re
