Yes. My cramps used to be like my uterus was an 80-year-old quietly grumbling about kids these days and the bad weather. Now they come in waves that are painful enough for me to let out little groans and consider taking ibuprofen. My period is also much heavier and about a day longer (but mine was quite light and…

Came here to say: Field Hockey!!!!!!!!! Displayed as the (internationally, at least) mens' sport that it also is!!!!

I don't make pot pie, but I usually use half water/half ice-cold vodka to make my fruit pie crusts. The vodka gives moisture but doesn't react with the flour in such a way as to form gluten, resulting in a nice, flaky crust.

I do believe that's the Christian kid from the Glee Project. No?

My Manic Pixie Dream Guy just moved away to pursue his lifelong-dream of (collecting all the US state quarters; becoming a musician; finding Atlantis; buying a house in Detroit), and I'm pretty sad about it. Not connected to my art. But sad. Just like any other relationship.

I unfriend anyone who, if I saw them passing in the street, I would not stop to ask them how they're doing. If I'm not interested in your life, we're not "friends" in any sense of the word.

Exactly. I certainly bicycle instead of using my car. If I had a horse, I would ride that too.

Their awesome overpopulation video?

Potentially stupid question: was this only unintended teen pregnancies? Because some kids do get married and want to have a baby by age 19. It ain't for me, and probably not most people, but it does happen.

I feel you.

Peanut butter is the perfect food: protein, fat, a lil' sugar, a dash of vitamins. Oh, and it's absolutely delicious.

And this is why I am terrified for our future, in terms of the culture of the populace and limits of our resources (ie: our carrying capacity); intelligent, insightful people full of forethought will choose not to have children. They might have one or two, knowing full well that we are stretched thin as it is, but…

I could go either way regarding period sex (yeah, extra lubrication! vs. I feel kinda gross and it's kind of a mess and I'm super tired already and I hate doing laundry). My current man is totally squeamish about blood, but still humors me when I tell him, with a broad smile, "I'm not pregnant! Woohoo!" This month I…

And Timberland hiking boots. So undeniably adorable.

I respect your ability to articulate your opinion calmly in a forum that must feel like a pool of sharks, but I do disagree.

THANK YOU. I want to echo everyone who's been commenting on Jez's science posts recently: get a science writer! I have a friend who is looking to go into that field, Jezebel powers-that-be. She needs a job....

It must be kakapo mating season in Wisconsin.

My ASL is VERY emergent (ie- less than a few months), but all I got was "Hi.(fingerspells something) ...now someone is walking along the crowd, now.... somethingsomething"

And improper punctuation in the sentence preceding that: opening an aside with a comma and closing it with a dash.

Cuff your carrot before you share it.
