It’s interesting to me that the Kardashian-Jenner girls are always doing big, grandiose lavishing things for their men, but their men never do the same for them. The last one I remember was Kanye’s engagement to Kim, but that appears to be the exception to the rule.

I’ve only heard clips, but I don’t know what you expect when it is a) a roast, b) the chicken shit doesn’t even show up, and c) you hire a writer from the daily show d) who is a woman of color. The only news worthy WHCD were from the Obama years because he was as good or better than the professional comedians. The…

I want to thank everyone for their support of my post and situation. SNS is incredibly supportive. Shout out to Trumpsux, BluePrn, Redboots, Tabbytown, CamillaBandina, Thundercats, CannedPam, goddessoftransitory. I feel a bit better this morning. You helped to motivate me

We ordered them and sent them right back. They were much scratchier than we were expecting. We liked Macy’s hotel collection sheets a lot more, and they ended up costing significantly less.

Is there a way to connect with moms who are in a similar boat? I found that helped me as a new autism mom. It can be so isolating and overwhelming to be in a different mothering boat at everyone else, whatever that boat is, and as you have rightly pointed out, you did almost die. :/ Little Catalina is a year old, and…

Hi all! I haven’t been around much lately, so here’s an update. First up, the loveliness that is Catita:

The reviews on the linen sheets are mixed. The Luxe or regular percale look inviting.

My husband is retiring from his job on Monday. On Friday, his former and current colleagues hosted a luncheon in his honor. 82 people showed up in a room that barely held that many. He deserves every last tribute. And there were many. It was a wonderful day.

We sold our rental property, finally. We bought it as our primary residence when the housing market started to slide, but it slid much further. We moved five years ago, but couldn’t sell due to its value at the time, so became reluctant landlords. It finally gained enough value back that we could sell it.

Well I wouldn’t make it a racial thing. That said, that kid could have been me when I was a kid and nobody said anything because my family was white and upper middle class so of course my mom couldn’t be beating the shit out of me.

Random but pretty grossed out by the press coverage “incels” are now getting. They thrive on publicity, and there’s their hero headlining the most trafficked feminist site on the web.Everyone’s playing into their hand but it gets the clicks so it’s worth it, right Jezebel?

I’m all packed up at my brother’s place for my move into the new place next week. I’m on vacation for the week as well so I can relax before and after. I’m usually a procrastinator about packing but most of my stuff is in storage and I have so little at my brother’s it seemed silly to put it off to last minute. I…

She is gone!!!

Women do get screwed over by doctors constantly and for pretty much their whole lives, especially women of color and women who are overweight. Then it gets worse as we enter our senior years. Everything gets chalked up to ‘old age’ when many problems are very treatable. And if you’re ‘lucky’ enough to reach your 90s,…

I really love the way Lorelai acts as mediator between Lane and Mrs. Kim (on multiple occasions — it also comes up in season 4). It’s a nice way of showing that she has learned something from her relationship with her own mom, and that she doesn’t want Lane and Mrs. Kim to have that same long-term estrangement.

Now that you put it that way, it’s ironic that Lorelai is special because she ran away from her stultifying privileged life to the quirky small town, yet Rory is special because she got out of that small town into the privileged environment of Yale.

This even applies to psychiatric issues. I spent most of my childhood and adolescence on a revolving door of anti-depressants and anti-psychotics until someone finally diagnosed me with autism when I was 17. By which point I was in a mental hospital. I still think my being female had something to do with it.…

It took me seven years, seven doctors and medical crisis before I was finally correctly diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder. It’s maddening.

I’m dealing with this now. I’m dealing with health stuff that I’m now about two years and a lot of shit symptoms behind in dealing with because my doctor only saw a girl who was complaining of girl things. I recently asked for all my test results and found out there was evidence of the same thing she finally put me on…

Kate Walsh had to insist on a brain scan which found her tumor because the doctor said her problem was being an “actor in her 40s.”
