Detroit.

In my history of murder class I was JUST talking about “Missing White Girl Syndrome” yesterday, and now we have another example. I LIVE in Michigan and read the news and yet I had heard nothing about this woman’s murder. No way that would be true if she were white. News media coverage of murder constantly reinforces

There were a disturbing number of motherfuckers in the replies to the tweet about his age playing dumb about why a textbook that old is a problem. Fuck yooooouuuuuuuuu!!!

How will I break this news to my parents, the only two people still watching this show? I guess it’s time to redouble my efforts to get them into Rupaul’s Drag Race.

I’m still so fucking salty about birth control losing. How can I enjoy dramatic sex if I can’t prevent pregnancy?!

So oil paintings are for pinko lefties now, huh? What about paintings of horses or boats?? $500,000 would buy 16 dining room sets for Ben Carson but wouldn’t even begin to cover Mnuchin and Zinke’s private plane costs.

I love Trixie but damn is Drag Race so much better than All Stars. The All Stars are all so haunted by how they’ve been edited before and how they want to represent their “brand,” and that anxiety and guardedness comes across. Meanwhile the Drag Queen contestants have a palpable energy that comes from a potent

I fucking loved the show, but full-disclosure: I binge-watched it with my partner the week we brought a baby home from the hospital, so we were sleep-deprived and inclined to like any show, especially a show about a family of three with a daughter.

He’s never really done it for me before but the combination of beard and pink sweater, totally sold.

I agree, I thought he went full cue-ball, though this is a start. It’s much better looking and he can afford the increased sunscreen budget.

Maybe it’s because I’m in a weird place, what with it being the end of the semester and nuclear war seeming imminent, but I teared up reading Bamba’s statement. How incredibly brave of him to be so candid about his status. I hope it gives some anti-immigrant fans of his acting pause. And I hope more people start to

Andre Balazs and Uma Thurman have dated. Could news of his actions explain her rage about sexual harassers in that recent interview? Not that women need a reason to be angry in 2017, but now I’m curious.

“Shout out to Beacon’s Closet for declining to take ANY of the pieces in my two LARGE bags full of GREAT old clothing!”

This is so fucking overwhelming. I didn’t find out I was pregnant for the first time until week 6, and only because I was taking pregnancy tests constantly. What if I had needed an abortion?? There would be no time to get one! With my second pregnancy the doctor didn’t even have me come in to do the first ultrasound

Holy. Shit. This one is terrifying!!

This one scared me intensely for reasons I can’t articulate. Reading about the crawlspace giving you bad feelings, I realized even my posture had changed, my shoulders were around my ears!

“I didn’t know how, but I knew that smell was not my son’s urine.”

Thank you. I live 2 miles South of that Meijer, my closest grocery is a Save-On, it’s maybe a mile away, always bustling, and has cheap produce.
