Yes, and then she'd get snarked on by all the fashion blogs for having visible panty lines.

I thought this summed up the GOP's approach to women's issues rather nicely: http://www.nbc.com/saturday-night-live/video/gob-tampons/1418195/

I'm a big fan of CamFed, which supports education for girls in Africa — here's their ranking on Charity Navigator. http://www.charitynavigator.org/index.cfm?bay=search.summary&orgid=11479

According to the article, "Uncle Sam has filed tax liens against Lindsay for the years 2009 and 2010 — claiming she owes $233,904 in unpaid federal taxes." So in this case, at least — a lot.

I have the same problem/eyelids, and I agree. At the very least, that's a very evening look to be wearing at midday.

I've occasionally bought things from Anthropologie on serious sale, but generally speaking, I don't understand their "I am a mid-level aristocrat living in the one remaining wing of my family's crumbling Georgian estate. I subsist on tea, gin, and bouquets of dried herbs. When it's foggy on the moors I like to put on…

Found it! Google "Charles Bonnet" syndrome....

Yeah, my grandfather saw some crazy stuff when he developed dementia. He mistook me for a younger version of my mother — easy enough, we're basically clones — and my mother for my grandmother. But he also claimed to see "ladies in white dresses" in the front yard, and swung at them with a baseball bat. It…

I'm sorry you feel that way, but barring any sort of in-depth interaction, I (or any other woman) can't tell whether you (or any cismale) is a genuinely nice guy or someone who might assault me. Trust us, it's not personal; we're not looking specifically at you, judging your many unique individual characteristics,…

Dude, I had to hide those books behind my other books so that I could sleep at night. Why I didn't just throw them out, I'll never know....

Apparently there's a very rare but benign cognitive condition that can make you see little cartoon people. Gene Weingarten at the Washington Post wrote a column about his elderly father's experiences with it; I can't find the column, but perhaps something similar is happening with your grandfather. I find that…

While they don't operate in Pakistan, I love the group Camfed (camfed.org) — they help girls attend schools in Sub-Saharan Africa attend school by helping with school fees, uniforms, etc.

Who wouldn't want to lie in a heap of puppies? In all seriousness, I think it keeps them warm :)

The truth hurts, Tagg. On a side note, why on earth did his parents give him that terrible name?

Thanks for the recommendation — I'll check it out!

I should know better than to feed a troll — but wow, random judgement much? I'm not even sure how your comment addresses mine.

Yes, wasting food is bad — but I'm currently trying to help my husband break his habit of eating everything on his plate, even when he's no longer hungry. When he was little, his Depression-era grandmother encouraged him to be a member of the "Clean Plate Club," and now he has very little sense of when he's full, and…

Sigh. This is my hometown. The theatre where the debate took place also hosted my high school graduation. I'm REALLY hoping Josephina McCarthy up there isn't a local, but I wouldn't be surprised.

Wow, I hadn't realized that when you point out that the NFL is donating only a tiny portion of breast cancer-branded merchandise revenue to cancer organizations, of which only a fraction goes to actual breast cancer research, you're actually announcing your desire to abolish all professional sports, turn all stadiums…

I loved it, but I love anything Scottish. Go see it!
