Judith Light, not Judith Licht.

If I don’t get out of bed and dressed no one will take the kids to school. And I can’t get back into bed if the kids aren’t in school.

I’m also woke af and I am fully dressed but under the covers. Make sense of that!

I’m woke af and I still don’t even know what that means! I feel like that either reinforces my woke-ness or it is an utter contradiction.

I find great value in your brevity.

I feel like nursing is like running a marathon. Some people will love it. Some people will suffer, but the pleasure of having accomplished it will outweigh the downsides. And some people will give it a try and stop. And some people will find the whole thing completely unappealing. And while it is a way to be healthy,…

They don’t need teeth to cause damage - a chomp from a set of gums hurts plenty. And on the other hand, you don’t necessarily notice a difference when the teeth come in as long as they don’t bite. I nursed my second kid until he was 2.5 and teeth were never an issue.

I like them but when I was in high school a friend said listening to Steely Dan made him think of Diane Keaton driving across the Golden Gate bridge in a convertible with the top down. That was 20 years ago but I can’t listen to them without remembering that observation.

My experience with New Hampshire is limited to the 40ish minutes I spend on I95 on my way to Maine, but I suspect that exposed nipples is responsible for 0% of the challenges that face New Hampshire-ites. (And 3% is the hassle of having to go to a government sanctioned liquor shop just to get some booze).

Seems like a bullshitty and frivolous criticism. Someone remind me when President Cruz engages in petty popularity attempts, that I focus on the fact that he’s set back reproductive rights, civil rights, immigrant rights, and peace on earth about 80 years.

People have already convinced their kids that a magic fat man enters every house in the world and brings presents to good little boys and girls. The elf is a logical extension, especially in a world where we’re already constantly being tracked.

Does that exist? Women with good relationships with their moms? I have a 10 year old daughter and I live in fear of subjecting her to a relationship like with my mom.

I think what would make it less hollow is if she was more open about the reasons why it didn’t occur to her to explicitly create a main character of color while she was writing the book.

Yes - minorities don’t get to opt out from being mocked and marginalized.

This is only image I could find of the phone that made me the coolest kid in 7th grade. I STILL WANT ONE!

Henry Louis Gates does bear some of the responsibility as well.

I’ve been thinking a lot about how rapist apologists hide behind “innocent until proven guilty” to excuse the lax approach to meting out justice when it comes to rape. It may be the cornerstone of the US criminal justice system, but it was a concept created by white men to protect other white men from yet more white…

Holding someone else’s baby. Holding one’s own baby can cause sadness and/or drinking.

“But out of respect for Keith, I tend not to discuss any of that now …”

A Slate article convinced me to stop putting two spaces after my periods. Think about all the time I’ve saved!
