I honestly don't think it's so much "not giving a shit", I think it's a cluelessness that's part of the culture of football. My kids have played just about every sport that's out there, and probably the most bullishly dismissive attitude I have come across was from football coaches (especially as a woman). Even my…
Honestly, what was that even about? What would insurance do if my TV fell and killed my child? Replace my TV? New Child Policy?
Because consensual sex - albeit pseudo-kinky and ridiculous faux BDSM - is the same as DV... You're joking, right?
This ad isn't for you.
I found this ad worse than useless. What was the message, exactly? "Domestic violence is scary, and. . .exists" Nothing about how to recognize when someone may be in a dangerous relationship, or what to do about it, or how to promote a culture where it's not say, acceptable for football players to commit it with no…
Truly. Millennials seem to think that we've hit the post racial period by now. But, really. What's so hard about going outside and offering the man a seat in case he wanted to join that party? And THEN asking him to leave (nicely) if it turned out he didn't know any of them?
Err on the side of kindness, people! >_<
So now this is another fear of mine...i will be overreacting about this is 3...2...
Her "vision" is "what if Edward Cullen weren't a vampire and he did have a lot of sex with Bella?" I am 98% sure that the director was desperately fighting to turn the books somehow, someway into a movie that wouldn't insult the intelligence of a normal adult audience. I mean, I hear what you're saying about…
When I was an athlete, I manipulated my period with birth control pills so I wouldn't have to deal with any of it. My doctor suggested it.
Would it kill Wimbledon to let people wear darker uniforms? I know I know tradition, but who the fuck cares. Changing the color of a woman's tennis skirt won't decrease the quality of play there (in fact it sounds like it could increase it, if female tennis pros don't have to worry about blood showing through).
Let's call it what it is: I don't feel like attending my fucking running club tonight because I'm bloated, exhausted, and bleeding profusely every time I sneeze. If I had to do hill repeats on my period, I'd probably hemorrhage and die, discomforting our running coach who has legit shat himself during a marathon but…
Kids are so fickle. I remember when my best friend in third grade broke up with me. She said, "I still want to be FRIENDS with you, but I want to be BEST friends with [our other friend]." To this day, it is still the most hurtful thing anyone has ever said to me. Team Rosie!
Gotta be southern. Southern Shade is fucking brutal.
I witnessed shade with my very own eyes just the other day. My coworker got a very visible piercing to which a supervisor reacted to by saying "Well, you don't seem the least self conscious about it!". I immediately called it out as shade. I did not approve, because my coworker is a sweetheart and the piercing looks…
This is a little off-topic, but... I had a friend who showed up to my father's funeral wearing jeans and work boots. Because that's what he wears for his job. He took his lunch break two hours early so he could come and pay his respects and I thought it was lovely. He made an effort to be there for my family and we…
You woke up at 8 am on New Year's Day?
In response to a recent post on Jezebel (I think it was Tweet Beat) lots of people in the comments were wondering why Judd Apatow hasn't been calling out Woody Allen. On the face of it, both cases are similar in that neither Allen nor Cosby have been charged with the allegations, so what's the difference? Why all…
Well I don't know about dictating my life but unseen forces certainly have an effect at the kinds of economic mobility and education opportunities we are afforded.
