I have a mom like that. There’s no reasoning with the unreasonable and utterly delusional, because the person could turn on you forever for one ill-timed, well-intentioned intervention. Choices have to be made. I feel for Cliff and admire his resourcefulness. It feels shitty to be underhanded, but that’s a far better…

I'd love a week of only hotel / movie theatre stories. I can only imagine what those poor souls have to put up with in a daily basis...

I already posted this in the greys and I’m sure you’ve already seen it, but in case you haven’t this SMBC comic was literally the only thing I could think of when I read the headline:

Take 1.

Listen, when you ideology is preoccupied with sex being dirty and wrong, you’ve got a couple of potential outcomes

You know another reason not to bother? He could well “pass” because like nearly all abusers, he honestly doesn’t think he did anything wrong.

I think what one considers to be the most horrifying tells you a lot about a person. Clicked expecting bodily functions, got stories of personal violation and shame. Am now a little disappointed in myself for thinking the former is what I had considered to be most horrifying. Good on you, Pinkham.

My mom LOVES getting flowers, and buys me and my sisters flowers for our birthday every year. This has turned into all of us making sure to buy her flowers for holidays, special occasions, and whenever we are at a farmer’s market or whenever we find a great deal at a grocery store. For example, I bought a dozen pink…

corrects people who refer to him being responsible for his own children as “babysitting.”

Sadly it’s not even close for me. I once did a postpartum home visit to find that the infant had died several days before but the mother was still bathing and dressing the little body and frantic because “She just won’t eat.” I suspect this will turn out to be something similar. Grief can do some powerfully tragic…

THANK YOU. I don’t get why so many people are okay with this. I believe Mind Your Own Business extends to knowing when to keep your business private. Involving non-consenting strangers in your kink play is NOT okay.

There are so many people who love Hot Fuzz and Shaun of the Dead who have never seen (or in some cases never even heard of) Spaced. I try my best to fix this whenever I can. Spaced is one of those shows where, if you’ve seen it, you feel compelled to share it with as many people as you can.

I still say Spaced is the best thing Simon Pegg has ever done. That show is criminally under appreciated.

And thus concludes today’s Very Important Math Lessons brought to you by Sipowitz. Thank you, kind professor.

Not an allergy request but a ridiculous coffee request. At one cafe where I used to work, we kept the milk and cream behind the counter and would pour it in for the customer ourselves unless they asked to do it. One woman asked for me to make her coffee “about your color.” Because I’m neither coffee nor milk, I have…

Do they not remember? Are they in denial? Or are they just really really stupid?

I think I would really like it if a band of relevant celebrities got together and made a series of sex ed videos, which they would then advertise online and on TV. If obstinate fossils are going to stop kids from becoming functioning and happy humans, give them a pleasing alternative the laziest of them has heard of.

Clap, clap, clap, clap.

1. Seems it did raise red flags which was why she was investigating his facebook page. It’s not impossible she suspected something before but didn’t have the evidence she needed. She may have even talked her self (perhaps with his assistance) into thinking she was being paranoid or overly jealous.
