I starred you, just for Bujold prosetylization. Illyan is the shit in that book.

Many years ago at the group home for developmentally disabled teens where I worked there was a resident who really, really wanted to go to the best steak house in the city for his 18th birthday. He had behavior and anger issues, but was determined to earn that birthday dinner, and he managed it. So another staff…

The raise makes sense to me. In a novel by one of my favorite scifi authors (Lois McMaster Bujold, for the record, Captain Vorpatril’s Alliance), a government building is slowly collapsing via liquefaction of the ground beneath it, and some of the workers are wisely getting out. As they’re observing it from across the…

Ugh. No, you don’t get special praise for wanting to take care of your kid. You’re supposed to want to take care of your kid.

It really depends on whether your face is oily-ish or not. You can get away with just washing and whatever serum you want to use if you’ve got oily skin like me. You don’t have to go fancy with your eye cream: a little aquaphor placed far enough away from your eyes so you don’t wake up with annoying eye film is…

Friend, I do not know. It makes me feel like a responsible adult and if my skin still turns out to be a nightmare in twenty years, so be it. AT LEAST I TRIED. But do whatever works for you, and maybe ask a dermatologist if you’re serious about getting a real answer.

You think that's bad! Check out the entire aisle of homeopathic "remedies" that contain not even a single molecule of their "active ingredients" and sell for tens of dollars!!

Ha! Sounds like my ex. His current is closer in age to my kids than to my ex. And much, much shorter. It’s a bit... interesting.

My dad married his secretary.

My dad didn’t bang the nanny (that I know of) but he did make his 23 year old grad student my new mommy, so we get to live a cliché too.

Luke Perry should take a few tips from Daniel Radcliffe. Here you go, Luke. How not to be an asshat, lesson #1.

I wonder if these two got his address from Mia? They tossed stuffed animals and shot up his yard with Nerf darts.

For real, I clearly don’t know how to woman.

Except Bill Cosby has, throughout his career, tied his personal life into his career. Much of his standup is about his family. While he is not Cliff Huxtable, the Huxtables have the same number of children (four girls, one boy) that the Cosbys had. Clair Huxtable has the same middle and maiden name as Camille Cosby…

It’s amazing how many trolls online will say, “where’s the proof that this happened?” Here is your proof. No more anonymity, all guts. I applaud them.

I love the open chair at the end of the line. It’s silently implying so many things. Because you KNOW there are more out there. And more women that will be raped by others. It's almost an open invitation to other victims to feel like they could step up and join those women who were able to come forward.

Capitalism

This clearly flies in the face of everything that Maxxism stands for. Hell you might as well just go to Lenins & things.

Don’t be silly, it’s during the Awakening Moon (which is April in the neo-pagan calendar).
