Sorry, love.

men spend more per month on clothing an accessories than women—not by much, at $85 to women’s $75

As someone who’s been all over the country teaching security departments how to make government-compliant smart badges, let me also say that:

In her defense (and I actually just went and re-read her post) she never says *only* supermodels do this. She goes out of her way to ask that she not be misunderstood; she just wants to say that people are wrong when they think modeling is an easy, glamorous life.

Yeah I agree. I don’t know why we have to hate on his choice of name for her when she clearly likes her name and his trying to make her feel better with a cake. She wasn’t hurt, she was scared but she will be fine. I see nothing wrong with that cake.

I never said it was an effective silver lining. Though I wish it were. :(

I have no idea if these people are nice or not, and I haven’t accused them or anyone else who gets IVF of hurting anyone. I have, however, pointed out the logical inconsistency of believing all the god’s plan stuff - including (supposedly) no abortion, no taking out the excess fetuses to give a few babies a chance

I believe the cousins would be something more like siblings, genetically speaking.

I will never understand all these super-Christy types who mess with God’s plan by using science to have statistically near-impossible multiple births. Was it not God who made it so you couldn’t conceive? I thought God’s plan was always the right one.

That bothers me so much that even after the PP shooting they’re throwing around that “baby parts” line. Ugh

The worst part is, even with it being proven fake, even with the people who created it being sued, and even with people turning themselves in. They still won the war. That video has been used- and will continue to be used to attack women's rights.

I spent a couple of minutes trying to think how to put it better than you did, but couldn’t. Well said.

If you pay your credit card in full after getting your statement, it will still be reported as having a balance. I pay the statement balance every month in full, but it still shows a running balance on my cards.

I live in Brooklyn, where gentrification means that rents will likely go up at a rate higher than inflation in many places, at least for the foreseeable future. So I’d eventually like to buy a place with the idea of it being more like an insurance policy against unaffordable rent, versus an investment that I hope to

You are incorrect. What you meant to say is that a flat 0% utilization across all accounts may ding your score (not by much). That is why it’s recommended (not by FICO) to keep your utilization around 1-2% for the best overall impact on your scores.

This is the same person who said she buys into the “one drop rule,” right? One way to overcome the lack of diversity would be to stop buying into white America’s way of segregating people.

How annoying of us to give a shit what is downloaded and installed on our computers.

Placing the blame for drawn out wars on the public rather than politicians in bed with the military industrial complex is fucking absurd.

My father had an early draft number. He was forced to leave his PhD program and devote himself to alternative service until the war ended. The only reason he did not go to war was that he was an impassioned religious pacifist with a long list of witnesses who attended a multiday hearing and testified on his behalf

Question: is it likely that someone who doesn’t know what they’re doing might accidentally install the update? My mom is on 8.1 and while I certainly intend for her to upgrade to 10 before it stops being free, I don’t want her doing it accidentally and not knowing why everything changed.
