Ugh, Aslaug! She's so pretty, but I cannot stand her. She has nothing on my girl Lagertha.

This is good to know, I can definitely get behind the idea of having the authentication sent straight to my PC instead of my phone.

2 step verification is great, but what happens if you don't have your phone? Recently, being the genius that I am, I dropped my phone in the can. I tried to log into my email to let my friend know to email me since the phone was dead, but I had the 2 step verification and suddenly had no phone and no email. Is there a…

Really? As I said in another comment, the CVS where I live (PA) never charges me for BC and gives me 3 months at a time. It's really weird that it varies so much from location to location.

I wonder if it's a regional thing? I live in Pennsylvania and CVS gives me 3 months of birth control at a time and I've never been charged for it.

I love io9 and think it has some of the best damn commenters on the internet. It would be awesome to be able to highlight comments that push the discussion forward in a meaningful way (and promote the funny ones too). I promise not to go mad with power if you give me just a little bit.

Preach. I would like to sign up for your newsletter sir/madam.

Nicely done, Esther, I loved this article! And I have never thought about how space travel would mess with what must be massive amounts of water on a star ship.

I rolled my eyes so hard at that quote. In reality, the last thing this guy wants is people dressing well on airplanes. If everyone else is dressed well, where will his false sense of superiority come from?

It's the Quiverville craziness. She has 18 siblings, and every other person she knows is in Quiverfull, so all of her friends and family also have 10+ members of immediate family. You can't invite 2 out of 12 cousins, you have to invite them all, multiply that by however many aunts and uncles and the number gets high.…

Yeah, little girls always torture their barbies. It's weird, but ask any woman who played with dolls as a child and if she's honest, she'll admit to it. Kids are weird man, who knows what they're doing. Hortense over at Jezebel talked about it a few years ago. I was glad to hear I wasn't the only one.

Thank you. It's weird to me when people talk about colonizing space as this crazy new thing that they're struggling to predict when just a few hundred years ago earth was still being colonized. There's so much historical data that can be contextualized for debates like this. Human motivation is complex and…

Thank you for that laugh, it is desperately needed after this article. I don't know why I even read it :(

2 Broke Girls is so disappointingly bad. Kat Dennings deserves so much better than that.

Those were record company executives making profit driven choices while a pop-star performed on a program for adults

The State Department has a list of trusted charities that you can use to donate money to help doctors and other professionals help with the crisis.

Yeah, it's hard to pin down what's wrong with it, but I want to go with too pretty. Not that the actual SBTB actors were ugly, but they looked...less put together? I think the main issue is that clothes on a TV show like this back in the day looked cheap, and probably were. But the clothes they used for the Lifetime…

Preach. Victoria Secret bras are expensive garbage.

As a large chested woman, sports bras with under-wire are the worst. They chafe, they don't last as long, they're uncomfortable and they constantly need to be adjusted. My morning jog starts at 5:30 in the morning so clearly 'm not interested with looking hot or impressing boys, I just want to be comfortable. And do…
