My mother is a raging feminist “libtard” who previously worked as a coordinator for sexual assault reponse in Sierra Leone.

Women are targeted every. day. Over 100 women in the States alone are beaten every hour. The leading cause of death for pregnant women is homicide. It transcends every socioeconomic, political, racial, cultural, and sexual orientation.

God help me, but after the shootings last week, I wondered when someone would be targeting women next.

Honestly, The Simpsons should have ended at least a decade ago, if not more. Of course a show which has cartoon characters conceived 25-30 years ago is going to be problematic. We can appreciate older creative works within the context of their time, like with children’s books, or old TV shows long since ended... but…

You’ve reminded me of a timely comic:

And none for Gretchen Weiners.

They should shred it first.

“We aren’t doing it out of anger. At least most of us aren’t (those who are angry/jaded/make their patients feel like garbage should be thoroughly castigated for that.) But it’s important to remember: we are doing it to try to help you be healthier, so you don’t die sooner than you have to.”

You’re wrong. Science says that you’re wrong. The original article says that you’re wrong. You obviously did not read it and on the off chance that you did, you didn’t comprehend it very well. Your comments here are more condescending than helpful.

We are eating fewer calories than our parents and grandparents, but we’re putting on weight. Your “just eat less, silly!” take is not helpful. Dieting slows down your metabolism as your body tries to compensate. For _some_ people, you can lose some weight and hit a point where you’ve lost the weight but the…

So, here is my problem with diets and the eating less advice - I believe different people have a different reaction to hunger. My ex could go all damn day without eating, if he had hunger pangs, they wouldn’t bother him. Often he wouldn’t realize he hadn’t eaten all day until he came home at 3 am after everything was…

I used to think that weight was between a person and their doctor. Then I had sciatica about 10 years ago. My first neurology appointment the doctor shamed me for 45 minutes about how my weight was causing my sciatica. Fast forward 9 years and 50# lighter.... I still fucking have that sciatica and wish I could scream…

For me, the most infuriating thing is the clear data that’s been known for decades linking trauma to higher risk of developing obesity, cancer and mental health issues.

Why is it so hard for so many people to just not be an asshole to (fat) people?!?!

He isn’t on the same par as CK, but this seems pretty fucking clear to me:

In the sticky moistness of the far future, there is only Porn.

*shudder*

The only real question is who will play Harold?

Also, I’m really curious what she saw in this dude that made her think, “There’s someone I want to go to bat for!” Just looking at him makes me want to shower.
