I HATE cleaning and my house shows it mostly. But I am a unbelievably good cook. But I've noticed that in my old age (72), I'm sort of getting into the Zen of housecleaning, once in a while, in between all my activist and protest activities. I think it's an attitude change I've had. Doing the cleaning was not

I celebrated it. I found it really interesting that she tried to have it professionally done, but ultimately she realized she could do it herself, which was awesome.

I really don't think you need to be a Dodgers fan to bitch about Cardinals fans. Just being a fan of baseball will suffice.

EAT KALE AND SHOP IN PARIS, PEASANT.

I wonder if she does research on cancer? I mean, if you can make the time to do it, so can she.

She wants praise and attention. This has nothing to do with inspiring other women. Be honest about your own narcissism.

Dear commenters who don't want to entertain this as legitimate pain:

Living up to the patriarchal notion that women should be aspire to be sex on legs, super fuckable, and available for any man that wants her.

Well, the Yankees didn't make the playoffs, so the mouth-breathers have a lot of spare time.

Yet, these clothes look like something you would pick up at Macy's and JC Penny's, which isn't a knock on those two stores.

RICH BITH HERE TOO. You know what I learned? Saying things like 'I shop at goodwill! I don't live in a fancy apartment!'

I know, right?!

I had NO IDEA I was so lucky to have student loans. It didn't even cross my mind. Now I feel shitty.

THANKS OBAMA.

Exactly. I am a single (never married), childless, renting woman on the verge of AARP membership. I never wanted kids, never wanted a husband, and have always done pretty much what I wanted. And yet I treat people well, am law-abiding, contribute to my community, etc. There are plenty of married childbearing

Hey, us youngest siblings have it hard too! We get picked on the most by the older siblings and excluded from activities for being young and annoying.
Of course, being showered with toys and the parents finally having a game plan kind of makes up for it I suppose...

You've never lead me wrong before, so consider my job quit.

Functional question: as a childless female, how do you engage in conversation about child-rearing without infantilizing yourself?

I happen to know the first woman to win an anti-discrimination lawsuit in my rural region in Europe. That story happened five years ago. She worked as a foreman in construction. When she got pregnant, her employer fired her because he allegedly didn't want to search for a surrogate for three months.
So she went to a

As a legal assistant, thank you x1000000. It's weird that the lawyers I work with are happy to let me create legal documents while they show up 1.5 hours late, take 2 hour lunches to get hot wings and then leave early. And they have the nerve to complain. I'm debating putting up a sign for my babysitting and maid
