There are COUNTLESS non-religious based organizations that help people. Are you really this clueless? No offense but your comment is ridiculous and ignorant.

It’s definitely illegal, but it also happens all the time. It’s hard to prove that the reason you’re being underpaid is because of your gender, and if you make a formal complaint or file a lawsuit or anything it’s going to hurt your career because people will see you as a trouble maker.

Evangelical Philanthropy has proven to be an insidious phenomenon in developing countries. It doesn’t even meet the definition of philanthropy in most cases. The organisations provide superficial and temporary solutions to existing concerns while creating new ones. I understand the hope that spending enough money…

I work in development, and the “places to worship” bit got a raised eyebrow. In my experience, people living in abject poverty don’t ask for churches, or temples, or mosques. They ask for schools, clinics, wells, training programs, cash, etc. Anyone that tells you the people requested a church usually wanted to build…

Atheists are not a group, so we don’t have organizations, but feel free to check out literally every other group that does this kind of work without indoctrinating people.

I’m sure Nicki Minaj means well, but such casual philanthropy especially mixed with evangelism does way more harm than good in India, especially in an under-developed region.

I love Nicki. A lot. But let’s not get carried away here. The “charity” is missionary. It is not altruism. The poor are manipulated that they are “saved” by Jesus Christ.

Awww Beyoncés first baby shower, for her first natural birth.

I have heard some people say that Nicki is doing all charity to deflect from her brother legal issues.

There’s an old man (really old...like 90) who insisted on being gross and creepy with me at my job in a library last weekend. I talked to my boss, who said they’ve had problems with him in the past, and that he probably targeted to me because I come off as “feminine and passive” due to my southern accent. She said…

I don’t mind the scaled back gladiator sandals that just go up around your ankle, but past that they look like torture devices. Rompers are just hard to wear, and it makes me feel like they’re lying to me because they look so effortless, casual and cute when done right. But most people don’t fit them. I hate all…

Bless you for giving us the phrase “aggressively floss my nethers”!

ah. ok. thank you.

ah. ok. thank you.

You gotta measure your bed depth. Depth measurements are usually listed on fitted sheets!

how does one find the correct sheets for a mattress with a pillow top? i’ve bought a few bed sheet sets and they are either too deep or too shallow for my matress. they never fit perfectly. :(

I am right there with you. I made better financial decisions (out of necessity) once I become a parent. Also, I lost more friends due to careers and relocation than I did by becoming a parent.

Happy singleton, Good with kids but doesn’t want her own here.

I may have entertained the idea of kids when I was much younger. But I loved a woman who could never conceive for almost a decade, and that’s alright. She was more important to me than any “might be” person. She still is, even now that she’s gone. At my current age and health it’s just not a likely thing.

I think a common misconception among people who don’t have kids or don’t wanna have kids is that when you become a parent you are throwing your life away. Please remember that all parents lived a single lifestyle at some point in their life. Those that planned their pregnancies were ok with giving up that lifestyle. I…

Listen, I appreciate the sentiment here, but parents treat you differently once they have kids and you don’t.
It’s the way of things. Their new family is at the apex of their concerns.
You have a simulacrum of your previous relationship; it’s not lost, entirely, but it will never be what it was.
You can’t have it all.…
