ALL of the love for Better Off Ted! Lem and Phil were my favorites, but Veronica was a close second. Portia’s delivery was fucking phenomenal!

I am fortunate to be married to a lovely ginger with glorious long locks. He’s no Tormund Giantsbane, but he definitely warms my tent!

Hubba Fucking Hubba!

Before getting the EDS diagnosis, I was routinely dismissed by specialists as an overweight nutcase. It took a lot of research on my own part, and finally getting a rheumatologist who was familiar with EDS, to get the right diagnosis. Now every time I go back to my allergist, my orthopedist, or the G.I. doc, I

I have a genetic disorder called Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, type 3 (aka hypermobility joint syndrome). I also have a diagnosis of fibromyalgia, with onset after a nasty battle with EBV (mono) at age 40. The symptoms of both are incredibly disparate, come and go randomly, and vary in intensity from mildly irritating to a

GRRRRRRRRR!!! Have had similarly frustrating conversations with sailors and their significant others as a Navy command ombudsmen. Sexual assault is epidemic in the military, but everyone swears that none of their friends could ever be a rapist. Have you seen the Amy Schumer Friday Night Lights rape sketch? I’ve had

I wish that it was possible to star this eleventy squillion times. We need not just allies, but ACTIVE allies.

I feel you! Same here, caucased for Bernie, volunteered, and donated money. Was treated like pond scum by my fellow Bernie supporters because my Hillary hate quotient was insufficient. Have had more polite and reasoned discussions with Hillary supporters than my fellow Bernie fans. Am now officially in the neutral/

Leslie Jones is a goddamned treasure, and I unabashedly love the fuck out of her!

Holy shit, this sounds like a cult, MRA bullshit, and multi-level marketing all piled into one giant shitstack. As a woman in my late forties, it is easy to see through this piece of human garbage’s spiel. Thinking about how naive and confused I was in my early twenties, I could see my then-self falling for it.

Same here! Those two albums got me through the toughest year of my life. Still listen to them both regularly. “Why Walk When You Can Fly” is my go to inspirational song. She’s one of those rare artists who is eleventy gazillion times more powerful live. If you ever get the chance to see her in concert, GO!!!

Silkwood shower time.

The 90's were a feminist revolution for country music! I still listen to Mary Chapin Carpenter, Kathy Mattea, Suzy Bogguss, Pam Gillis, Trisha Yearwood, and Roseanne Cash on the regular.

Starring this for your handle. Also, today’s earworm is now “Bunnies, Bunnies, Buuunnieeeeeeeees...”

Totally plausible, except for the use of the word “nuanced”. That’s some awful fancy language there, and I don’t think he gets that one, the word or the concept.

My very Southern Mom a Grandmother both ate these on the regular. I. Could. Not. Peanut butter and banana sandwiches, however, are yum!

Threads like this make me miss the fuck out of Mark Shrayber. :-(

Retired family practice nurse here who has assisted in hundreds of cyst excisions. PLEASE, if you ever get a large cyst, have the entire cyst surgically removed. Most general practitioners and dermatologists can do this in office in less than an hour, with a local anesthetic. If the capsule, the large, hardened casing

YES!!! I was attempting to explain to a Facebook friend why I was uncomfortable joining their vanpool to a Bernie rally. I said to her “Remember how horrible the Paulbots were? That’s the same vibe that I’m getting from Bernie supporters.” They’re trying to drag the Democratic primaries into the same cesspool as the

If it were a Christian or church affiliated preschool, then it is most likely a 501(c)3 or other tax-exempt organization, which would make the whole situation even more illegal and/or unethical.
