Shit, this whole time I thought my vulva-woo was focused on equal pay and reproductive rights...silly lady brain. Though, this does make me want to storm D.C. and take tiny, withered hostages (not for violence, just for show) until we get the ERA passed. "Gun to the head" will get a whole new meaning.

No worries. I'm smack in the middle of Akin country, so I know the wave of revulsion that overtakes a person when stuck behind a vehicle sporting some "Jesus thinks you suck ass" decoration. Just happy to do my part!

I'm just gonna leave this here...

Hugs accepted and returned. I mention the story because I have found myself in several conversations since the anti-choice zealots kicked into high gear with people who cannot understand WHY I am so invested in reproductive rights/bodily autonomy. Because, since I can no longer have kids, what's it matter to me…

Ugh. Just, ugh.

My existence is that much happier knowing that there is a book called "The Secret Life of Pronouns."

You know, I just (like within the last month) found out what those things are. Apparently marathons come in two sizes: full/26 mi. and half/13 mi (someone correct me if I am wrong) and those people aren't fundies, just runners.

I decree that from this day forward any time I see a random dood not explicitly entertaining me by his very presence, I shall demand that he dance. Preferably the robot, but also acceptable: the Typewriter, Running Man, Tootsie Roll or some straight up Vanilla Ice shit. Woe to the man that breaks out the Electric…

I am all for allowing Columbia access (shitty cops shooting people's dogs over pot that's pretty much a misdemeanor, off to SW MO with you), as long as we can state that 70, and ONLY 70 are part of the state. I swear, you can see the Come To Jesus/Abortion Causes Slut Tumors littering the sides of the highway from…

St. Louis wants to be on that call as well.

I saw that question a lot when reading up on it and the general consensus seemed to be that yeah, it enhances the growth of pretty much any follicle with hair in it. I'm lucky, as my body hair is light and downy, but I noticed that my eyebrows seemed to be a bit sped up growth-wise. I'd give it a go, expecting that…

I recently came across the OCM and OH. MY. GOD.

One night years ago I was at a bar, talking to random people as they wandered up. At one point I was conversing with a mildly inebriated young gentleman (probably about politics) and he leaned over and, I swear to God, said

I cannot hear Mitt Romney speak without wincing at the implied pat of the head. And then I want to punch things. Things named Mitt Romney.
