I was spanked just a few times as a child, and while I don't think it had any long-term effects on me, I'd never do it to my kids. I remember when my parents realized how fucked up corporal punishment is. I brought home a paper with a very low grade in second or third grade. I was always a straight A student, and I…

Well, she got back together with him and got pregnant, so a marriage happened. I think if it hadn't been for baby Laura, she would have gotten out way earlier.

It all turned out okay in the end, if that makes you feel better. While I think she probably should have run from the room and never looked back, I have her poor teenage judgment to thank for my existence, so that's a conflict of interest for me.

This is how my dad broke up with my mom when they were still teenagers. It should be noted that they did get back together, get married, and eventually had a long overdue divorce for which everyone is better off.

Does Soma carry your size? I'm a 34G and they've got mine (although I usually only have a few bras to choose from in-store). I'm not sure where you live or if there's one near you, but if you're ever in an area that has one, it's so nice to actually be able to try on a bra before buying it!

My boyfriend was my first ever Okcupid date, and we've been together two years, live together, have two cats, and are starting to talk about marriage. If you're honest and you put yourself out there, it can happen.

I don't have many good things to say about either of them, but I will say this. Taylor Swift has built a career on writing songs about other famous people. This is just the first time it wasn't an ex-boyfriend.

I work in a vegan restaurant and have what feels like a disproportionate amount of people who want to eat gluten-free. I always phrase it, "Are you okay with the potential for a small amount of cross-contamination?" If they say, "yes," I respect it as a dietary preference but don't treat it like an allergy. If they…

I couldn't agree more. There's nothing lazier in the comedy world than being "anti-PC". It's basically an acknowledgement that the comedian doesn't trust him or herself to be funny without relying on stereotypes and the belittlement of individuals who are lower on society's totem pole. It requires very little effort…

If someone is given a weed brownie without knowing that's what it is, they could find themselves in a situation where they're too incapacitated to say no. I know people it's happened to.

The most common date rape drug is alcohol.

Lindy, you remind me of all the things I've forgotten I loved.

When people make these kinds of justifications, I want to throw up. Yes, perhaps Mike Brown smoked marijuana. Yes, Renisha McBride had been drinking. Are those crimes that we execute people without arrest or trial for in America? The sad answer is yes, if those people happen to be black.

I get catcalled constantly on my way to class and I love it (even though it sometimes makes me late)!

I saw a change.org petition about this circulating Facebook and it took a lot of resistance not to call those people out on their hypocrisy. I'm vegan, so I'm not really in favor of eating any animals, but I think when you are someone who eats them, you have no business telling people what animals they should and…

For me the biggest issue is climate change. It's happening so rapidly and we're not acting quickly enough. Unless I feel confident that this planet won't be hell for my child as she grows older, I'm not having one.

I wrote a Theatre History paper defending her. Every news story just turns the knife in my heart.
