Cate Blanchett. She looks like she has Opinions. I like that.

No, I’m sorry! I should have gone back and read through the comments, then I would have understood.

What is your fucking problem? I have a degree in Anthropology; I’m not making up woowoo stories about Neanderthals and nature and crystals.

You’re so lucky. I always loved Neanderthals.

Frank Herbert is one of the smartest, most informed and subtle novelists I have ever come across. And all of the Dune books are fantastic, but they evolve in a way that doesn’t cater to everybody. If you loved the action and thrilling Quest for Power that the first book gives, you might be disappointed by how the next…

Agreed! I have a pair of much older Lululemon yoga pants that aren’t transparent and don’t pill or rip, and I definitely have the chub rub going on.

I have an aunt who is one of those people who constantly forwards anti-Planned Parenthood stuff on Facebook. I confronted her with the exact information/stats you have listed and she asked me, “well, if you walked into PP and told them you were thinking of having an abortion, would they help you get one?” And I said…

Thank you for your sensitivity towards Neanderthals. I’ve always loved them, irrationally I guess, and never believed that they were the grunting cavemen of popular description.

I think you are 100% right that you have to be with someone who understands your love language. For me, I like Acts of Service. I know someone loves me if I call them up for help, and they help me, no questions asked. For me that is security and caring; they are giving me their time and expertise. One act of kindness…

I use a Nook, one of the least expensive ones, and I love it. I chose it because I don’t need all the bells and whistles of the expensive versions; I don’t need a color screen or to be able to use it as a tablet. I just want an ereader that can shop for books online and has a good backlight that I can turn on/off and…

My mom would never do anything in front of me. But one time when I was 15 I was staying with my aunt and uncle for a wedding, and my aunt was getting changed in the same room I was in, and she changed her pad, with absolutely no hint of shame. It transformed me. I was in awe that she was so matter of fact about it.…

This summation is excellent.

Nope. Catholics are some of the least die-hard of any of the Christian sects. I say this as a former die-hard Catholic.

There is definitely a TYPE of scifi fan that prefers being terrified of the future, being terrified of the ills that science and technology can bring. These people will like Dark Mirror. But I prefer my scifi without someone hanging over my shoulder telling me how the future will be scary and soulless and out of…

Yeah, I bled my first time, and it hurt / felt a little raw for the first few times. I was absolutely physically “ready”, so there was no dryness problem or roughness. Some people bleed, big deal!

“Buy me nachos”, you say? I’m intrigued, tell me more about these nachos.

Just imagine living your whole life this way, with someone who blames you because they lost their shorts. I think you have to consider the unpleasant truth and get out of this relationship. People don’t tend to get magically better as they age, unless they are actively working on being a nicer, better, person.

I am so sorry that you had to endure that! Hugs from an internet stranger.

In high school I inhaled the Turkey Hill Peach Iced Tea (while I ate my Good’s potato chips made with lard).

Oh yeah, THOSE GUYS. I know those guys.
