“And I’m going to expect men to step into my world instead of me always stepping into theirs...”

I have fairly clear skin anyway, but I have realized now that I am pregnant that the pregnancy “glow” is caused by not having chin breakouts once a month now that I’m not ovulating.

Exactly. I don’t believe diet plays into it as much as people want to believe. I think it’s genetics or hormones or a combination of both. I’ve had completely clear skin my entire life while basically living off a diet of sugar, fat, and caffeine. You could not prove by me that eating healthy and drinking loads of…

I pay someone $15 an hour to clean my house once a week for two hours. Vacuum, mop, clean the bathrooms, kitchen, dust. Sometimes she stays and we clean the fridge or the pantry or do the windows. I should mention that I’m disabled and not able to do a lot of these things myself. It’s the best money I spend all month.

I totally get the desire to keep yourself grounded, but there are so many household chores I would hire out in a heartbeat if I had the money. Mr. Levy and I have batted around getting a housekeeper to come in twice a month to do the floors and bathrooms. Once we have the room in our budget, it’s happening.

Slightly OT, but can we PLEASE retire “females” as a noun? It sounds just as obnoxious when it’s coming out of a woman’s mouth.

I don’t know I feel like having the option to not do laundry and doing it anyway is as far from normal people as possible.

And here I thought I’d finally made it because I now rent an apartment with its own washer and dryer (that I share with two roommates). It’s all relative, I guess.

Co-sponsor? I bet she & other Dem women will write the whole thing for Bernie.

I had moderate acne from age 17 until age 30, when I was diagnosed with BC. My ovaries were shut down with Lupron during chemo. Skin so smooth. So, so smooth and clear. Repro system eventuallllly booted back up (taking tamoxifen), and I get a pimple only like every other month now. Not sure if it’s because I have…

I’m not sure about this one but could be a thing. I say that because much of the stuff that happens with Molly is about her constant internal conflict about coming from a certain life in the hood as a kid and now being a successful adult and being able to afford the lifestyle and material wealth that comes with it all.

I loved this show for a lot of reasons, but I really loved seeing Issa’s job struggles as someone who has also worked in similar nonprofit jobs. So many of these shows about young women in big cities center around their dreams to become famous or a professional creative or at least a “career woman”. It was really…

I took it as a teenager as well. Honestly, I didn’t realize until years later that Accutane has so many side effects. The whole getting pregnant thing wasn’t a concern of mine, cause I’m gay, and I think I just ignored everything else the doctor said. (Dumb teenager.) I had severe acne all over my face and it got rid…

Fan theory from another site: “Does anyone else think Derek might not be the father of Tiffany’s baby? Tiff said they didn’t live together for 3 months at the beginning of the season (comparing their situation to Lawrence/Issa). Then Derek this episode said there was something going on between her and a coworker.…

OMG SAME SAME SAME SAME. I had the skin of a fucking supermodel in high school and college when I had accurate pumping through my veins. I now have the skin of a teenager at 32. I try to soothe myself by saying that since I still have acne people probably assume I am younger than I am

It exists!

I liked that Due North show and how into it everyone was

I think she was trying to convince herself that she “could” be more than a friend to Quinton. She was trying to complete the therapist’s exercise in the way that only Molly could, and she failed. Like with 100 F’s.

Believe me, I totally get it, I responded in a couple of places (and to you I think as well, but comments aren’t showing up), but the iPledge is extremely problematic in terms of women’s autonomy and agency and a physician’s role in actual health *care* as opposed to draconian paternalism (health care should *not*…
