My 7 year old came home with lice, my 19 year also contracted it, as did my husband and myself. We have EXTREMELY thick hair and all of our hair is past our shoulders. It was three months of combing, chemical treatments, combing, natural treatments....it was literal hell. I think we spent almost 500 dollars and…

I have been on Johnny Depp since I was in grade school watching him on 21 Jump Street. My mom and daughter and I just loved him. I know it’s silly but we all thought he was the definition of cool. I don’t like Amber Heard’s acting and I’ll fully admit there was an element of bitchiness to it....but this whole DV thing…

Word. I feel you. IWhere I live, we are so far north we are almost Canada but we have sooo many confederate flags, you’d think you were in Mississippi. I’m a bitch because I ask my racist, fucktard redneck co-workers to refrain from using the n word because it offends me as WOC. But the pro-life, pro-gun, pro-batshit…

I’d so frame it, might even give it a name. I’ve been employed 26 years, I never even gottten a phone offer. I’ve always been hired at interview...last time I was thrilled they didn’t hand me a name tag though so moving up, I guess? Joys of being a flyover state tourist town retail worker? Hopefully the third MA will…

As someone who squeaks “George” every time WHAM! or George Michael plays regardless of environment, I thank you soooo much. I believe I’m going to listening to Fantastic on tape in my 30 year old pale purple boom box. I have finally justified hanging on to my George tapes. Now, I just need someone to post an INXS gif…

I swear to shit I have been hearing about Hillary’s god damned “cankles” since I was 17 and campaigning for Clinton 1.0. I am so sick of it, I could vomit. I was disgusted when in one breath, she was berated for her work towards health care as First Lady and mocked for lack of bodacious gams. I heard about her legs in…

From the time I very little, 3-4 years old, my mother took me to see “The Birth of Industry” at least twice a year...she was a former hippie and entrenched third generation auto worker that married and divorced my Mexican father. She told me that the mural was my history and my people. More than 35 years later, I find…

I used to watch Monk a lot. My husband walked in one day and said Stottlemeyer was Buffalo Bill. I know it's ridiculous but it ruined Monk for me, kept imaging pierced nipples and tucked junk.....

About ten years ago, there was an op-Ed in the Detroit Free Press by one of my favorite voices, an African American man whose voice was usually one I looked forward to reading. He wrote a piece about how the DNC was throwing away the 2008 elections if they nominated Obama as its nominee. His argument was cogent and…

I liked the T-Swift vag sandwich as it harkened to Georgia O’Keefe and the artistic and assymetrical beauty so often found in life. The other sandwich looked like a post-surgery photo.

I just did my chubby girl summer stock up at torrid and I pondered my “appropriate” ness there too. I’m 40 but damn, Lane Bryant and other traditional “plus size” department store items seem more like my 80 year old grandma than me. Offerings at Torrid made me feel old: no sleeves at all, oddly cropped shirts, and…

And i meant you’re not your. Despite being a minority and a woman, I do have two brain cells and am aware of proper English. Sorry for my grammatical fail 😞

Idea...let’s fly.a banner with the corpses of the Sandy Hook children on it. It can say something snappy using the RNC but I am too angry to be clever.

I’m so old, I remember getting the VHS Clue game. Mrs. White was the cook and Ms. Scarlet and Col. Mustard had the strangest chemistry. In hindsight, Scarlet was a walking ad for exoticism and faux orientalist appropriation but I was dumb and loved the whole thing.

I feel like a cliche but honestly his manner of speaking makes me feel like I’m in 10th grade English again, analyzing 1984. With newspeak: double plus good, Bellyfeel, and duckspeak. I feel like this is punishment for using cliff notes so now I have to live it.

My daughter works at a department store. I went there to buy some things and see my kid. It was weird because all of a sudden associates begin to manifest out of nowhere in the children’s department. Then my kid shows up. She sighs and says, “this is my mom, you guys.” And everyone but her leaves. She told me that…

Our PP was a party store in the 1970's. There are four to six protestors everyday outside. The truly weird thing is the nearest abortion provider is 150+ miles away. Our pp can do referrals to downstate providers but their 9-5 is pregnancy tests, sti screens, yearly exams, and dispensing birth control. I've never…

Am old so though of David Bryne, Stop Making Sense era.....

Preach. There is no acknowledgement of intersectionality that is so much a part of the feminist ethos within the Conservative party. You do you but the instant that starts telling myself, my children, or others what they must or can’t do because of religious dogma and patriarchy, bugger off. Honestly, try supporting…
