Why do I feel like this product already belongs on a nostalgia listicle? “17 Ad Campaigns That Are ‘Literally’ 2016"

Ugh to breastfeeding shamers. I have the BRCA mutation which means I have an 87% chance of breast cancer. Our plan is to have one baby and breastfeed if possible, have surgery to have my cancer bombs removed and replaced, then have baby number 2 to be fed on formula. If anyone tries to breastfeed shame me, I’m really…

They pressed him on the how and why on abortion yesterday. See how that turned out? We need more how and why from Trump so he can attempt to bury himself properly.

My 26-hour old nephew came out yesterday with full man-hair from shoulder to wrist. He is one hairy baby...

I just scrolled through about 3 pages worth of Google Image results on her, and probably still wouldn’t be able to pick her out of a crowd. Something to do with an entirely unremarkable face/bad hair color choices/looking like so many other celebrities/a likely self-imposed mental block on her existence...

I get my insurance through a Catholic health care system. The ACA still requires I get contraceptive coverage, even if the Catholics don’t want to pay for it. The coverage gets deferred to the insurance company itself somehow. So now I have two prescription cards. One normal one for non-slut prescriptions, and one…

Anyone else think those last two sentences should be up top? I get the idea of this and why everything is included, but I didn’t initially understand why I was supposed to be picking the things I picked until I got to those questions.

As a Chicago voter, I am very ashamed with myself for knowing so little about the vast majority of the names presented to me on my ballot this morning, but I am very glad that I at least knew well enough not to vote for her (and why!).

Well thanks for the encouragement and letting me know I’m not alone in this nonsensical struggle. Good luck to your business. Hopefully you’ll stop having to make those client compromises relatively soon.

Sadly, my experience (always as a consultant!) has been with Unilever, Method, and a few other contract blenders around my area. Method is just so inspiring whenever I’m down at their factory that I just want to spread the love everywhere and do cost-benefit analyses for my “dirty” clients to show them how clean,…

I just reread your first comment in more detail. You do sustainable manufacturing? I just got an MBA in Sustainability and I’m trying to focus it on manufacturing, though right now I’m stuck writing air permits for oil refineries. Any tips?

This is why Method opened up its own factory that it built from the ground up and got LEED Platinum certified in 2014. They had been contracting the blending and packaging of their products to a company that was simultaneously blending and packaging very environmentally nasty products for other clients, and Method…

Yep! Wanna see my stack of pay stubs with “THIS IS NOT A CHECK” stamped across them from my serving days because I was not “paid” enough to cover the taxes on my tips? (Hint: It was all of them)

that looks like good exercise

Speaking of women being marginalized by their male coworkers...

My parents own a rental house in which a tenant hung himself in the garage (where his wife found him the next morning while trying to get their kids ready for school). They are legally required to disclose this to all future tenants and to any future buyers as soon as they’re ready to sell the place (it’s still…

JFC, the lawsuits you could file for discriminatory hiring practices...

Seriously. I’m kind of concerned for Hilaria, though. She gave birth to their youngest only NINE MONTHS ago and she’s already far enough along to know the gender of their next? I mean, maybe they did IVF and selected the gender and she’s right at the start of her pregnancy, but still, that’s not a lot of time for a…

I feel you. I took Spanish in high school then decided to take Italian in college for something different. Then I got accepted to a study abroad program in Costa Rica where I’d be living with a family that spoke zero English. So I thought it would be a good idea to take Level 4 Italian and Accelerated Levels 1 & 2…

This is the reason my husband wants to move back to Indiana and have 4 babies. So we can be the good, Progressive Hoosiers and breed more than the neocons. I mean, the cost of living is incredibly appealing and both our careers are in high demand in the state, but seriously, fuck the Republican majority dragging that…
