As a born Michigander, I would personally like to punch Snyder in his face and I have NEVER actually hit anyone before. Flint is just the topper on the crap sundae his leadership produced.

I have two daughters, almost 13 years apart. My partner and baby daddy to the youngest is 5 years younger than myself. He went to the mall with our year old daughter, his 15 year old step daughter, and his 26 year old self. He and my oldest were stopped no fewer than 3 times by people who assumed baby was the product…

Natural Wonders?

I agree whole heartedly. I adored their group review of “50 Shades of Grey.” Maybe Jezebel bloggers on intoxicants reviewing suspect “chick flicks” are my jam?

I kind of wouldn’t mind the Seth Rogan thing. I had the flu and Netflix. It just kind of happened. Too lazy to pick anything, I let Netflix decide. It was that damn movie Take the Last Dance. Maybe it was the NyQuil or the 102 fever but I’ve had a thing for him and chicken ever since. Carmela the chicken might do…

As one survivor to another, I feel your pain, rage, and raw hurt. I’m in my 40's and when I was afraid on my mom’s boyfriend at 3, she was pissed. I didn’t even have the words to explain why I was afraid at 3. When another boyfriend would sneak in my room starting at 15, she stopped speaking to me for 8 years. My…

It’s never about the children, it always seems to be so centered on punishing the mother and the “life, what a beautiful choice” children. Then the stressed and exploited woman and marginally homed, undereducated, undernourished children can be held up as proof of poor moral compasses or whatever bs buzzwords they…

When I was growing up Detroit, my mom would smack my head if it even looked like I might be thinking of littering. I live on one of four main roads in a small tourist city valued for its natural beauty and once a week, I fill a trash bag with shit people throw from their cars....cups, bottles, cans, fast food…

Nope. Don’t like it at all. I like the idea but the tattoo is so....bad. I know portraits are extremely difficult to do as a tiny alteration of perspective/inappropriate shading/inconsistent light source ruins it. I understand Gaga goes for black and gray but Aladdin Sane cover art seems to beg for color. While…

Honestly every time I encounter clear and deniable misogyny, I get twelve shades of pissed and rant at my mom. She was the first wave of women UAW working the lines in the 1970's. She listens but it always ends the same. She says,”I love it when you’ve got your fist in the air. Fight them and draw blood but understand…

You made me laugh and snort a discount Reese’s Christmas trees out my nose.

I completely agree with you. Men are not mindless zombies driven by erections. Even thinking about the power given by society to those with external genitalia, it seems a shit trade when you are treated as little more than a lobitomized fuck monkey incapable of understanding the humanity and autonomy of half the…

As a retail worker, it isn’t about effing killing baby Jeebus with heathen resolve. It’s about the sheer number of holidays in an incredibly short period of time. I wait on 500-700 people a single shift. Every time I customize a departing wish of well being, it sticks, for months. Fourth of July, Mother’s Day, or…

I am an avid blocker. I sincerely wish they had “social network exhausted” so I quit seeing all the people I am grateful I no longer care to even be reminded of. But I’m a misanthrope so maybe that’s just me....

I feel as if the red robes from “The Handmaid’s Tale” are just around the corner...and I look awful in red.

Didn’t bleed the first time either...he didn’t say anything about it UNTIL 3 years later when I became pregnant at just barely 18. Apparently my not bleeding meant I was whore but it wasn’t relevant until then I guess. But it was totally cool that he was 13 years older than me and a complete fuckboi. I just love…

My mom, the woman who taught me how important it was to be a feminist, asked me what I was wearing and if I was drunk when I was raped. My grandma hugged me. Funny how people think.

My 21 year old daughter is a hard core gamer and has been most of her life. She refuses to voice chat unless she’s playing with her uncle, boyfriend or another male she knows rt. She has changed her user name to be gender neutral because she was routinely harassed. I can’t even count the number of times she just…

My 9-year old daughter would be a puppy and play fetch for what seemed like hours. She would also speak only in barks and this went on long enough that I understood her barks. Finally, just got a dog to play puppy games with her. She had decided to be a marine biologist and as such becomes miscellaneous sea creatures.…

Odd hearing woman should a themselves against their abusers. Stand your ground only works when your dealing with brown people you don’t know right?
