Holy crap! I had people pull out of talking at the last minute (including a keynote speaker due to a family emergency). I never had anyone crash though, thank goodness, because I would have cried.

I’ve been watching Project Runway Junior because it’s just like the regular series but everyone (contestants, judges) is less bitchy. Every week, the host (Hannah Jeter - the Heidi Klum of the Junior show) introduces Christian Siriano (the Zac Posen/Michael Kors) as “CFDA designer.” I didn’t know what CFDA was -…

I thought of that song the other day. Here’s another of roughly the same era that is suddenly extremely relevant again.

I’m also an environmental scientist so most of what Dr. McDermid said was not news to me, but I think her message in the last 30 seconds or so was a good one. We (environmental scientists and global citizens who value a healthy environment) have a lot to fight for. We can channel our anxiety into activism to protect…

Is that the sequel to Love & Hip Hop?

I like this photo. It is very useful.

I’m only kind of English. Moved to the U.S. when I was a kid. It isn’t as cool as it seems, and we have really bad teeth ;)

She looked like she was gonna laugh after she said “I don’t know what that, uh, means...”

Tiny silver lining that his Saturday laziness made the women’s march the undisputed story of the day? Of course you’re right re: treatment of Obama. I bet Obama watched less TV in his entire presidency than what DJT’s gonna watch this year...

They don’t feed Esther commercial hog feed. But they do occasionally feed her ice cream, which might add a few lbs. But, yeah, anyone feeding a pot bellied pig hog feed is a problem.

Small consolation is that he looks fucking miserable.

I work for a small non-profit. I make peanuts compared to others with my level of education. It might blow your mind, but I don’t actually need any level of feminist activism at all to feel like a good person. And frankly, the juice doesn’t seem worth the squeeze both in terms of my own self-worth and in terms of…

I think you read more into what I said than I meant. I did not mean to imply that female Trump voters had no agency or just voted that way because their husbands told them to. I was saying that if their Christianity leads them to believe that the husband is the head of the wife (Corinthians 11:3) or that men in…

I appreciate it because I waffled about posting about this topic quite a bit. In the end, I couldn’t hold my tongue.
