Ooh look, I made the 2nd-wave feminist angry. This silly novel of a reply has essentially rendered any rebuttal I would have needed to make completely irrelevant. #byefelicia

California has been operating at a budget surplus for years.

And no one’s government is more corrupt than the state that literally RE-ELECTED the man who got sent to jail for beating his best friend with a baseball bat after finding him in bed with his wife (RIP Buddy Cianci).

Try again.

Enjoy that Nor’easter.

Have you been to Oakland recently? It’s essentially become the West Coast Williamsburg at this point. Oakland realtors are absolutely raking it in, gentrifying the whole city.

+1 for the Mean Girls reference.

Based on their posts, it’s because NotTheFern thinks women with fertility issues = women who are getting (trans: paying for) expensive IVF treatments.

where you’ve prioritized the feelings of a small and relatively privileged group of people

Luckily, it appears she did.

It’s not a loophole at all, in fact. Even if HIPPA were to apply to Grindr, the users who are posting their status are the ones sharing the information publicly. User approval (likely in the form of accepting terms of use) would technically be all that Grindr would need, legally, even under HIPPA.

Either way, It’s…

She did it without his input.

Always upvote AlannaofTrebond.
I’m re-reading Woman Who Rides Like a Man right now ;)

Her blog - All the Pretty Pandas - has in-depth recaps with gifs (which I love), and also includes links to the clothing worn on the show.

She is definitely “in” with the Bachelor crowd and frequently contacts current and former contestants to identify the clothing worn on the show, etc. As Hollybear7 mentioned, this…

I’m always so impressed with Sharleen’s analysis of the show and the contestants, but her loyalty to the Nicks and Aries of the Bachelor world squicks me out occasionally...

I miss the photo tags of yore :(

Too mad he didn’t use Miramax for the Hobbit... might have actually turned out ok if it was a 90 min movie.

Ah yes, the show that sexual harrasser and head of programming Roy Price cancelled “Good Girls Revolt” for. I love this period of Russian history, but with that hanging over it, and Matthew Weiner being attached, I may just pass.

It doesn’t sound like, from your explanation at least, that your friend was saying anything about you, or in response to you. If she’s super fertile, then she’s super fertile. That’s not a reflection on you, or her just “getting lucky.”

For reference, I had a co-worker who got pregnant while on birth control (once…

I think OP is implying that Wall may have been following a new, possibly juicy lead that could have gotten her killed. Not that she should be blamed for deciding to board the sub.

I really love Pinch of Yum and the blogger’s style, but her actual taste in food is a little bland for me. I always have to add like 3 more cloves of garlic/more ginger/etc to any of her recipes and vastly decrease the amount of butter. I really want to love her recipes since I like her so much, but to no avail...

This has basically been de-bunked. ISIS has claimed involvement in a bunch of different violent events that they have no link to. It’s kind of their thing.
