I have a Google sheet I created last year with stories for anyone who kept losing their place in the queue due to the auto refresh https://docs.google.com/document/d/1j2ky_p2wnu_0jsCcVkxrkX7Mj_oM8ZmXHJmgvtOuJ-M/edit?usp=sharing

Well, we don’t have all the facts yet, and if there is one organization that has earned the benefit of the doubt with their years, nay decades, of administering upstanding, evenhanded, incorruptible justice, it is the LAPD, surely!

Behind the scenes, these women have helped overhaul the company’s approach to protecting elections, creating a new ad library to ensure transparency, and partnering with over 55 third party fact-checking organizations.

A good (American) friend of mine had been living and working in London for maybe a year when I picked up a hint of an accent in his speech over the phone, not to mention word choices. I never thought he was a poser or faking an accent; that’s what accents are - they’re regional influences on how a person speaks. I

Having spent long stretches surrounded by Britons in my life, I can definitely attest that my inflection and pronunciation of words will gradually change. You wouldn’t mistake me for anything other than an American, but there was definitely an effect on my speech.  That said, I think it’s possible Madonna’s accent

Look. You take me out of Tennessee and I Immediately pick up a new accent. Some folks just can’t help it. Chicago? Paris? New Olreans? I’ve accidentally been mistaken for a native in all these places becuase I can’t help myself when it comes to accents. *shrug*

The best elliptical machines at my gym come equipped with an entertainment screen for which, frustratingly, all the controls are broken. You cannot turn it off, change the channel, etc. And it’s always stuck on TBS reruns of The Big Bloody Fucking Bang Theory, so I basically never use those machines. Granted, you can

I have absolutely seen it, and it’s not that rare. Most common with parents who have young kids. I used to complain about them before I had a kid of my own. Then I had a kid, taught him from a very young age that you had to be totally quiet on a train/bus/airplane and how to wear headphones, and now I complain about

Before the internet, we just chain-smoked for the duration.

LOL children,  you missed flying before internet. 

But at least kids can fly free on some airlines.

All of these freaky hiking stories are starting make me really glad that I’ve always been more of an indoor sort of girl. 

I’m not affiliated with the group (at all) but I’ve met Sasha. First off, it’s nothing to do with your American evangelical loons and they are not conservative, we have a different climate over here. This was a hugely stupid and bad thing to do. The impression I got from her was that she had spoken to lots of women

Indeed. The daily mail is a shitrag of the lowest order, totally sexist and concerned with thigh gap and side boob. They hate anyone foreign especially people of colour, and have led the field bitching about Meghan on that basis. So they aren't a beacon of truth in other issues either. 

Why link to the horrible Daily Mail when there are not-shitty publications with more thoughtful coverage?

Historical footnote: the penis is bigger than it used to be. When the Giant was first created, he had a navel and the penis ended a few feet below there. During one of the restorations that have taken place from time to time, the penis accidentally got extended, with the navel becoming the head of the penis.

A friend’s son loooooooooooved everything about Eurovision, including the outfits and dance routines. It brought him so much joy. Until of course he was bullied for his clothes and backpack by little shits that had been taught that boys don’t like that sort of thing. Most of the kids in his school didn’t bat an eye

I mean god forbid he turn out to be some weak little ballet sissy...

It’s his first grade, not second as far as I’m aware.

Why are we doing this in 2019?
