Doctors that want to restrict access to abortion and don’t believe in evolution baffle me. This is a man who was an incredibly well-respected surgeon. I breaks my heart to know how stupid he truly is. It’s so mind-boggling that I can’t help but wonder if this is pandering? Like, he can’t actually believe what he is…

My daughter and I used blue and green dye to make little krispie earths for earth day at school one year. Really easy and pretty cute. The kids loved them.

This seems silly now but I genuinely didnt know that not being a mom was an acceptable option until I read the excellent book Flux by Peggy Orenstein. I had just been following the formula and adjusting my timeline as I passed - and failed - each expected checkpoint (married by 26 - nope, first kid by 29 - nope).…

They are all someone’s daughter.

Holtzclaw’s defense attorney Scott Adams made it clear that he’d be focusing his strategy on the reputations and “street smarts—street smarts like you can’t imagine” of the female victims. He also referred to Holtzclaw as an “all American good guy.”

While I've got little doubt this guy is guilty & I hope he spends the rest of his life rotting in prison, the description of him by his defense attorney is the defense attorney doing his job (ie, paint a different narrative than the prosecution intends to).

I really wish there was a civic organization that would compile information about local elections that people could reference for when they vote. I voted yesterday but ended up going along party lines because I didn’t even know where to start to get educated.

I voted yesterday in Pennsylvania with a 3 year old and a 7 week old in tow. The place was empty at 4 pm. Crickets. I went to vote against republicans, and luckily enough of us did to get the PA Supreme Court seats filled with dems. It is shameful how many people don’t give a shit enough to vote. The inactive masses…

One of my pet peeves is when they shop out the slight bulge/rolls when models bend over. I thought for YEARS AND YEARS that I had a disproportionately fat stomach because it bulged out slightly when I sat. Turns out that’s just what bellies do, I’d just been looking at shopped pics and people sucking in their stomach…

Every story I read about this girl gives me another reason to admire her. Yes, celebs are photoshopped. As adults, we understand this. My 8 year old daughter, who is a fan of several Disney actresses, does not. We talk about it, but when a girl like Zendaya speaks out about it, and shows the images side by side, my…

I seriously cannot understand why zendaya is photoshopped ever. Her original pictures always look so perfect that you’d think those were the photoshopped ones. she’s gorgeous and has such a banging bod.

It’s very problematic that they’re Photoshopping her to look skinnier. I am more bothered by the fact that they’re taking her skin color and trying to make her look like she’s tan as opposed to mixed. They're putting some awful Snooki filter over her and it completely changes her natural skin color.

If they want supernaturally narrow hips and skinny thighs, just start using prepubescent boys as these models. It’s easier to just photoshop the female models’ heads on to the skinny boys’ bodies.

I think what really alarms me from this is that she’s already “acceptably” skinny in the original photos. And the degree to which they Photoshopped her is actually a really shitty job—it just looks like they squished the “fat” parts of the image in, without considering how that would warp the rest of the image. C-.

I propose that Yoko’s tweets always get placed next to Shia’s. It’s kismet, folks.

“The boys don’t want to dance,” he said.

Glad she did something, though, and didn’t have the “Oh, I don’t have girls so it doesn’t affect me” thing. THIS is how boys learn what’s right and what equality means.

“I didn’t click through”

What. The. Fuck.

Aside from anything else, it’s troubling that the school has employees dopey enough that this got greenlit without anyone realizing how awful it looked.
