the Florida branch of "the Family" might actually contain some of my actual family/friends, by your description, @EstebanLoco.

one. that's it. i had ONE actual boyfriend, ever. and it was bad enough to make me never have more than just a glorified fling after the age of 22. the realization of that harsh truth stings when i type it out loud for the whole internet to hear, but it is liberating, and to know that there are more of us... well,…

You can't just say "she's white! she's rich! ergo has no contact with ppl of color!" and that excuses her from writing characters well. Jesus H. Christ, if she's a half-decent writer she could Hemingway it up & spend a few hours a couple blocks from where she lives & see what real non-Childish Gambino black & latino…

<3 <3 <3 so fucking much. sometimes i wonder if i could start my own jezebel, for WOC... one that wont be derailed by talks of how much someone appreciates what Beyonce stands for in terms of feminism, or if Rihanna is a feminist at all/if it's racist to say she isn't. :D

Not true at all. I went to Catholic school and received the most awkward sex ed anyone could ever hope for from a 70 year old nun named Sr Jean Louis in 4th grade. Don't you take that away from me. You couldn't if you tried. I still have it burned in my mind, the image of her saying in her Midwest accent, "The ovaries…

exsqueeze me? you mean like 95% of colleges out there that were NOT started as a result of every other college specifically segregating people based on the color of their skin, which are still predominantly attended by people of Caucasian descent?

this is kind of funny in a tragic way. like the He-Man Woman Haters Club grew up, developed an online presence, and is still trying to find ways to torture the girls.

i was going to say, the only girl named Cricket i have met was my friend's spazzy black lab mix who couldn't sit still for more than 4 seconds. and she was amazing! just not when our doorbell rang.

Samesies! And I love your name :-)

they have really really good thrift stores in Fresno. and if you have enough for a down payment, you can buy mcmansions from people who lost them in the housing crisis, so that's always a plus. also the freshest produce ever, because it's where basically everything the whole country eats comes from, pretty much. but…

Seriously. Say that again, Jessica, as you watch me eat a whole pack of water crackers with a 1/4 of a wheel of brie to myself and call it dinner, while I yell, "Don't do it, Olivia! Fitz is a piece of SHIT!" at the the TV during Scandal hour.

i know of someone who pays ~$45/eighth and has it delivered to their door within a few hours, but they also buy in higher quantities to make up for the cost of delivery, and that high price includes a $20 delivery charge. it's a bitch, but that is what happens when you want preemo bud, yet lack the will to get off the…

I'm from the bay area and when we went to Orlando on vacation, we stopped at a Winn Dixie to buy some food for the road, and brought our own bags in with us. They looked at us like we were maniacs and told us they would bag our stuff for us, free of charge. Then the cashier took a long, hard look at us and said, "You…

PARTY MANIA! My cousin Veronica and I used to play that pretty much every weekend. I spent so much time one day at work (sorry if someone at work is reading this, but I swear it was for a birthday gift and not indicative of how I spend most days) trying to find a copy of that game on eBay and it was so FREAKING…

I'm pretty sure one copy is still in my mom's garage, with those hideous boys and their 90s hair sadly frozen in time. You're welcome to my copy to add to the burn pile.

i love to picture the idea of a woman so, so pretty as Jessica Biel being so unforgivably disgusting a human being as i am, thinking thoughts like, "eh, why bother with a plate when i'll have to wash it later? i'm just going to eat off a paper towel," and "beef jerky is a totally valid replacement for a dinner. look…

this literally gave me a shiver through my body i can't describe.

I SAY THIS EVERY TIME I WATCH THIS MOVIE. I'm like, put the phone on silent. Homeboy ain't breaking out of whatever lockdown they will put him on, and lord knows she probably hasn't had any in a while. And just LOOK AT HIS BODY.

Can we start a charity fund, for underprivileged dreamers who pine for American Girl dolls & accessories? I, too, longed for those dolls... until one came on Christmas morning! When I was like, 3 years too old to play with dolls anymore. But I still loved her, because Josefina looked like me, and Mama had to save to…
