Yeah I like the area here. I have not ventured out from this nice bubble. Trying to move back north for a job in the next few years though- back to family and snow!

And remember, these creeps have a crooked and malfeasant federal judge in their pocket named Reed O’Connor.

Things Australia/Canada/Europe has:

I concur. I was surprised that Dan Patrick actually blamed abortion for the latest school shooting, because the evidence is clear that the exercise of abortion rights is associated with a reduction in violent crime roughly two decades later.

Don’t ‘abortion’ and ‘single mothers’ contradict each other? Is one worse than the other? What if a woman has an abortion because she knows she would be on her own? What if she has a door at home? I no longer understand my own rambling, but I guess it still makes more sense than this.

Yep! Newish Texan (silently crying) originally from the great (okay used to be great before Snyder and lead) state of Michigan!

Abbott, Patrick, and Paxton are the worst. Paxton is now filing suit against a law enacted by the Austin city council requiring companies to provide paid sick leave for their employees. How any republican can argue that they are fighting for the little guy is beyond me. And now the Supreme Court decision. GAHHHH

I live in Houston now, and went to UT when he was chief in Austin.

But we know the problem. America knows the problem. Congress knows the problem. To write a whole article bashing a musician is also not helping the problem. It’s petty and dumb also ignores the real issue—which is that Congress doesn’t care or represent the American people anymore.

I gotta be honest about Jezebel for a minute. This site used to run cool historical pieces on women (every once in a while) or fun community posts. Now, it’s re-posted, day-late, buzzfeed posts OR this bullshit, which is to pick a celebrity (usually a woman....) bash them for some stupid shit and then move on to…

We live in a country where one has to apologize before proposing a common sense answer to too much gun violence - get rid of the guns.

This case would be quite different if she only killed herself. But this isnt just a suicide story. This is a child-murder story. We don’t give passes to pedophiles just because the pedophiles were abused at some point. Whatever her intentions for killing the child, there is no justification.

I can’t believe I’m gonna say this, so I’ll whisper it

As someone who has recently gone through a fitness/health journey of their own, your comment is solid advice. Simple yet accurate. People (women in particular) are always asking me how I lost weight, what my “secret” was, what “diet” I was on, etc. and when I tell them I just decided to eat well (less carbs & sugar,…

Fucking diets. Meh. Limit carbs. Eat good fats. Exercise. You don’t need all this bullshit. I’ve been seeing this kind of shit since the 80’s. All fads.

I saw her live last weekend. As the mother of a 3 month old and a two year old I can only say it was life affirming for me right now. It was the most cathartic thing I could have experienced and I couldn’t possibly thank her enough. I felt so SEEN that I’m pretty sure everyone around me wanted to kill me because I was…

The body, having literally birthed a child, needs time to bounce back. Wong is upfront about things like having a nanny and says her ability to maintain a work-life balance is because of this—just one fact of life she wishes more famous mothers were frank about. “It’s unfair to the hard-core stay-at-home moms to…

This immediately jumps out at me.

“our country needed a huge change and it wouldn’t happen if Hillary was elected or something to that effect.”

I can do one burpee in an hour so I feel like I’m right on this lady’s heels.
