Make up will not help you. The flash is the least of it. It’s like they wait for just the right moment. They snap the damn thing right when you’re microexpression is saying “I think and have to poop, and it won’t be an enjoyable experience.”

I have a plausible explanation; that it looks like the kid is singing into a microphone.

Hey Anna, this is not a criticism aimed at you, but at the next staff meeting maybe suggest that the site tweak the algorithm so that these sexually suggestive images don’t pop up under a serious story that’s (ostensibly) about the harassment and objectification of women?

It’s crazy because Chrissy Teigen was so open about her fertility struggles, do these people not think she’s invested in this baby?? “Took us years to conceive so now that we finally have I’m so, meh. Bring on the IQ-lowering processed foods and all da bluntz! Who cares what happens!”

I had never had Chai before, found myself at a Starbucks one night and decided to try Oprah’s as a decaf option. I really liked it. But since then, I’ve noted a number of comments just on Jezebel about how terrible it is and now I’m thinking it must pale in comparison to normal Chai or something.

Some of us can smell when the gents are sweaty, horny, or otherwise, you know, being male. If you feel the need to have awkward work conversations because you can detect a woman is, gasp, menstruating, that's your issue. Not ours.

I hate all pad/tampon adverts that do not depict the truth about periods...

This is my doggie’s contribution to our engagement photos....

Yep. That no one reacts is sooooo so scary. And sad.

Saddest thing about this i everybody keeping their heads down because they know that if they complain it will be worse. The students glance at her, no eye contact with LEO, the teacher backs away. Tragic.

Well, those children learned many lessons about our country in that classroom.

Seriously! Personally, I need to go to bed angry, because when I wake up the next day, I’m well-rested and not nearly as mad.

I also hate that “don’t go to bed angry”. I stayed up late so many nights dealing with ex-husband’s bullshit when I could have been sleeping and not giving a fuck.

I hate “don’t go to bed angry.” I know it comes from the Bible but I don’t think God literally meant “stay up till 4AM when you’re both tired and crying and frustrated because to do otherwise is to spit on the sanctity of marriage.”

A former commuter bus acquaintance of mine made her daughter’s veil. It was very simple and inexpensive, but she spent her commute time stitching on beads. It had a simple, but very pretty beaded edge when she was done. Gorgeous.

I really, truly believe in this. Signing my divorce papers next week; we were together for 7 and a half years, and my biggest beef with him was that he never, ever said “Please,” “Thank you,” or “Sorry.” I mean, not just to me, but to anyone. There was one time where he smacked me in the face, completely by accident,

I'm also a thanker, which is apparently the opposite of bf's last gf. It clearly makes him feel good to hear "thank you" for the little things, and he now makes it a point to thank me for little things too. Happiest relationship I've been in :)

BREAKING NEWS: Basic politeness leads to healthier and stronger personal relationships.

I actually assumed she was there until you specifically mentioned that she wasn’t. And then I was like duh, of course she wasn’t.
