I was seriously surprised about the Little House books on my first adult re-read. But to change the books would be terrible. Not because they are such fine works of literature, but because they reflect the attitudes of the time and we should be embarrassed. I just skipped the entire series for my kids and I was…

I think that the time period is definitely something to be taken into consideration when reading books to your kids. If they are not old enough for a “this was how people thought back then but we don’t” explanation, there are plenty of books out there to read while they are still young. Or if you want to skip them all…

God, she is gorgeous. But she doesn’t need my approval or white, establishment gaze to make it so. But still. Wow. I can’t edit this so I don’t sound like an asshole, but I can’t help it. Hit publish instead of cancel.

Ms. Fiorina seems to be too frail to lift the mantle of antlers without some sort of pulley system off stage. Not everyone can have the vigor that comes along with outdoor Alaskan living.

Kasich isn’t terrible. That’s why he doesn’t stand a chance. 30 years ago, he would have been a perfectly cromulent candidate. (And a democrat).

It’s an American trait that money buys status, and what better way than to treat healthcare as a privilege? Same idea as “Free College” that Bernie Sanders is talking about. I think it’s great, but with talking to others, they don’t want their precious children mixing with The Poors.

I think if - and a very big if - he won, it would be a one and done, and would probably go back to the Senate.

Absolutely. I hope the party comes together but it just seems to be getting nastier among the twitter folks. I’ve taken a break because I just couldn’t deal and nothing on the internet should be that upsetting in real life.

Bernie is a true lefty progressive. I think that HRC is majestic and not deserving of any of the crap thrown at her since the early 90s, but she should be who she is. A moderate democrat who is OK with taking campaign financing from large banks and law firms that represent banks. She is a brilliant person who did a…

Funny how a lot of us landed here. And I’m willing to bet some of you are young enough to be my daughter, age cohorts and maybe some older. I’m kind of glad I have only sons. I’d be exhausted running interference with my mother.

After running a bit heavier than normal because I was 5 weeks postpartum, my mother said “Good thing your husband is attracted to full figured women”. And when I was sick enough to have a feeding tube, I swear she was envious that I bought myself underpants in the kid’s department. Feeling much better, tube out,…

They are super protective of their handlers, but can be very loving animals. My husband’s best friend at shift change for years was a dog that was not his.

At least the cops weren’t mistaken for strippers like they were at the bachelorette party. Also, human bites are more disgusting to clean out of dogs than the inverse.

Not enough brunettes for Ted.

That we looked awesome. Can’t wait until the women who are “on fleek” right now take a look at their eyebrows in old selfies in 40 years.

I loved me some corduroy coulats. Not a dress, not pants, but you got to wear tights and boots all the same.

Or properly purchase professional clothing to wear while being paraded around as the RW media darling.

I think what makes this different is that she’s a medic and knows what to do beyond getting to the scene and watching helplessly. That is a horrible feeling. Jumping in and helping her crew is like breathing. I just hope she doesn’t work for a system that dings people for being out of uniform and not clocking in. (I…

The element that makes this story more of a “yeah, so she’s a woman who cares about her family” is that she could get in there and actually know what to do to help. The fact that she is a medic makes it interesting, IMO. And am glad that it looks like everyone is going to be OK.

Absolutely and I freely admit I am judging based on a public persona that does not seem to mind having her child photographed. I had three under the age of 4, I’m well versed in crying and extreme-pain-distress crying. Those pics could have been taken with a super high speed lens too. I’m just glad someone was…
