I have the work uniform, too. It started when I was on an overnight shift (I’m staff at a law firm, so I still had to dress business casual), and I got sick to death of matching pants and shirts and planning ahead and worrying about laundry, as if graveyard shift doesn’t mess you up enough. So, gradually, my closet…

The problem is that a victim of stranger violence often does not have to cooperate or agree to press charges, while a victim of DV is almost always required to make that decision.

That’s going to depend on where you live. Sure, in my state, one of the very bluest, they’re making more of an effort, but the cops on the street often have the old attitudes. If the first line of defense won’t arrest, then nothing will follow, except more abuse.

My huge and reasonable issue is that domestic violence is treated as less of a crime than the same behavior directed toward a stranger or non-household/non-family member. It should be the same.

Sorry, no, there’s no rehabilitation for these abusers.

The Mormons are still marrying dead women by proxy.

Right Wing Watch has been tweeting it. Shaking my head so hard while rolling my eyes so much I’ve nearly fallen off my chair several times.

Try this link.

Never mind.

I have a 12 inch non-stick ceramic skillet that gets used nearly every time I cook.

I picked Christie because I don’t live on the East Coast so he’s less anger inducing than any of the others. I’m in Silicon Valley, and fuck Fiorina for destroying multiple companies on her fail to the top.

Same. I think I’m just burned out on cooking. Having to feed kids for too many years makes me hate the kitchen.

That this discussion came up on a bodybuilding site causes me to infer that all the steroid use has made these dudes insecure about their equipment.

It is called out, but getting people to listen, well . . .

Some of us can, though. Frankly, I don’t want intercourse to last a long time. If foreplay is done right, it shouldn’t take that long.

SOA is best if you just fast forward through the talking parts and go straight to naked scenes, with occasional bursts of gun violence.

Many years ago, I worked in a department store, much like a Macy’s, in the housewares department. We would occasionally have demonstrators showing off the different products, and they would prepare samples of food. We would see the same little old ladies whenever there was going to be free food.

I’m raising two sons. It is not fun. My older son is a lot like me, rather Aspergery, questioning, and logical. Show him something that is logical, such as feminism, and he’ll go with it. He’s very easy to get to see the other side of an argument. Not that there haven’t been issues, but once I show him proof, he gets…

The only Austen I managed to finish was Pride and Prejudice, and that was in high school when I read nearly everything I could get my hands on. Never finished anything by Dickens; in fact, I don’t think I ever even finished ten pages.
