I feel like Biden at least at one point in his life knew how to throw a punch. I’m fairly confident that Trump has never punched anyone (though he’s probably slapped some people [probably wives]). Trump is all talk and then, if push comes to shove, he’d get someone else to beat you up before the fight. Maybe Bobby…

And they were being extra careful with him last night. I was only able to enjoy it because I felt like they know how to make it look good without actually hurting him.

She just sits there, spitting out her nonsense answers with that evil grin on her face. Anyone who pauses after every sentence to smile that big is lying their ass off about something. Her smile says “I will remember this and I will get you later, bitch. Or I’ll show you what not caring for black and brown children…

This would be funny if it weren’t so terribly sad.

I also started advocating for better parental leave policies after I was done having kids. I felt like I wouldn’t be taken seriously while it was something I would benefit from. My company is mostly male - it’s a male-dominated industry, and talent is at a premium. I pushed for a parental leave policy that would…

I liked his weird sideburns, but I also always went for the oddballs. Mickey was my second favorite. I definitely get his appeal. :)

I’m very sorry. You’re wrong. I have evidence.

Maybe? Until it is understood and expected that both parents want to act as parents in raising their kids, nothing will be done. Women asking for it was never enough because working women have always been treated as the exception, not the rule. Even when most households have two working parents.

Your friend is crazy. Mike Nesmith is where it’s at.

Yeah. I’m all for not body shaming. He looks fine. He looks like many of my friends who are his age. But, let’s be honest. If he was a lady with a typical body for a lady that age, they wouldn’t be calling it “slim.” AT BEST, it would be “brave” or “comfortable with herself.” More likely “let herself go” or worse,…

This had not even occurred to me. I don’t know how much Luke charged her for coffee. I feel like he let her go a lot of the time. I’m sure she paid for her food, though, and they ordered obscene amounts of food when they ordered out. This is an excellent point.

This is the baffling part. A typical dress-code violation, even when ridiculous, goes something like: a) girl (always) showing knee/shoulder/that she exists b)teacher complains, sends to principal’s office c) parent gets pulled out of work to pick kid up for stupid, sexist violation. NOT kid isn’t allowed to leave…

Right? You explained it so much better than I could. Like, yes, Emily could be controlling, but that’s because Lorelei was so crazy! They suggested she marry Christopher, they weren’t going to force them to get married. Given the situation, I’d be surprised if they didn’t discuss marriage.

My husband makes dinner a good 3 nights a week, and he’s started doing a lot of the grocery shopping, too (because he also packs the kids lunches and therefore is responsible for knowing when we need more string cheese and granola bars). Granted, he picks what dinner to make, so we’re having more pasta, sloppy joes…

I keep wondering what I would have done if I was on the lift with my kids. If I was by myself / only with adults, I like to think that I would hop off at the bottom and scurry the fuck over. But, in that scenario, I’m only thinking about myself. Obviously, that’s the safer option. But if I’m sitting between my two…

It IS really hard. For me, the toughest part was, weirdly, the aftercare time sheets. The school offers day care, essentially, after school. It’s supposed to be turned in the week before, and he was always late. I was so annoyed that he wasn’t following their time table, and he’d just pay for the full days and then…

Rewatching Gilmore Girls, Lorelei is the worst. I feel much more sympathy for Emily Gilmore. She was awful sometimes, but she was doing her best.

Give him some work! And make it his job to remember to do it. It isn’t helpful if you have to check on whether or not he’s done it.

But, she goes back to him in the end. He tells her he’d moving and invites her to move with him, so he can make her grilled cheese. Nothing wrong with getting a dude to make you grilled cheese if that’s your jam, but the implication is the reason they broke up was her dumb job. Now that she’s done being a shallow…

Every time we read this book, my husband and I tell our kids “anyone who tells you ‘your mother will not mind at all if I do’ is lying. Do not do anything they say and come find me or call me.”
