I work in IP law and can't ethically use an illegal site, its a really big bummer sometimes!!

Ugh, stuck on Season 3, I'm too cheap to buy on Amazon and Netflix only carries Seasons 1 and 2. Life is hard.

pretty much this. My husband asked if I wanted a pre-nup (I work in the legal field and talked about their importance before), thought for about 2 minutes, we don't really own anything to protect (small 401K and student loans, yay!) and State of California says anything from marriage certificate on is joint, so, um,…

Yep, about 8 is when my parents turned to grounding, which they were beyond excellent at. I was spanked probably 3 or 4 times and I'm ready to form a line behind you sound like a caring father. The projection on this issue is off the charts!

Yes, let's generalize parenting techniques cause every child is the same and every child requires the same method of discipline. Shaming parents who have found techniques (that include spanking) that work for their child just because you're special butterfly is perfect is completely counter-productive and just…

Seriously! Whats the point of paying for all of this sunshine if I can't enjoy it on a patio with bottomless mimosas?!?!

I actually related a lot to her mindset, my life changed dramatically when I started thinking of myself as a survivor instead of a victim, it was incredibly empowering!!

Googled it, had no idea! Covered my learn something random fact of the day, thanks!

It's never ok to falsely claim rape, I'm just pointing out that the 1 million dollar defamation suit has garnered more attention and "defamation" than some internet commenter, so if this is (I'm guessing, I have no clue) just a publicity stunt to get the band back in the media then I consider it very gross.

So he took one comment from an internet article and now claims defamation?! I would gather that the majority of people had no knowledge of the rape allegation until HE filed this lawsuit, which makes me think this is all just publicity stunt to get Bright Eyes (a band I barely remember) back in the media attention.…

I honestly had no idea tranny was considered a hateful slur until I started reading Jezebel. I lived in WeHo and continue to live in very progressive SoCal and nobody has EVER said anything about the word tranny. So while everyone on this site seems to be in the know about it some of us unintentionally had no clue…

I had phone interview for my dream job earlier in the week and despite being qualified with 10 years experience i'm kinda nervous I will be looked over because I don't have a degree, and I'm really tired of feeling looked down upon because I'm not academically inclined. I'm really fucking good at my job, shouldn't…

and if she continues to date losers sometimes you just have to accept that your friend has a bad picker.

LW#2: Feminism isn't making you resent your BFF, being a judgmental close-minded asshole is. I understand the pain of knowing a good friend isn't reaching their full potential but instead of judging her trying being sympathetic and understand her choices. Feminists make bad decisions too.

then eventually get "picked" by an emotionally abusive band guy!!!

I don't think it has to do with "guilt" though, more like racism/sexism, but to think people voted for Obama because of some guilt over slavery is really ignorant and small-minded.

Yes, I do. For many reasons.

me neither, post 30 is a bitch!!

There was a really good article on Slate that pretty much summarized this whole ordeal with HEY PIERCE, ITS CALLED JOURNALISM, YOU FAILED AT IT!
