Fred Rogers (Mr. Rogers) gave testimony in Sony v. Universal that was key to Sony winning, and home recording being allowed. He testified that the VCR could be a useful tool for parents to record his show, and watch it later. Universal had argued that there was no legitimate use and that people would record shows so…

If anyone wants to make a donation to support independent abortion clinics (like Whole Women’s Health, and the indies I worked at and research with), every dollar counts! Make a donation to celebrate today’s decision and to help clinics that had to close re-open their doors! https://www.abortioncarenetwork.org/donation…

This cannot be said enough. Thank you, thank you, thank you to everyone out there who is fighting for our right to make our own medical choices. This is an amazing victory for women across this country.

My favorite line (thus far— I’m still reading) from Breyer’s majority opinion: “We add that, when directly asked at oral argument whether Texas knew of a single instance in which the new requirement would have helped even one woman obtain better treatment, Texas admitted that there was no evidence in the record of…

I worked with Bill at the Times. There were so, so many pretentious, better-than-you people there, most of my memories are not pleasant, but working with him always brought a smile to my face, and remembering him today made me just a little less bitter about all the assholes. He was a class act and a wonderful person,…

In fact he was extremely egalitarian and lived an ascetic’s life. Almost like a monk. And he was not impressed with celebrity in the least - only style, on every kind of person he encountered.

You couldn’t be more wrong. If he found someone striking, he would photograph them, whether they were wearing high fashion or a highly individual outfit with no labels. He photographed all ages, all backgrounds. He was interested in everybody. Watch the documentary so you at least know something about the person…

This man was the last of a dead breed of gentle, unjaded, and genuinely curious people living in a brutal environment that long ago ceased being accommodating to the creative and imaginative. Yes, New York, I mean you. See you later, fine friend. Thanks for the mirror.

I am so FUCKING over this. Fucking take all the fucking guns and fucking burn them. My husband has hunting rifles. He doesn’t need them that bad. Fuck all this motherfucking bullshit. I have to take my damn Birkenstocks off at airport security, but fucking suspected terrorists can buy guns legally.

Jesus Christ who said anything about partners, for fucks sake? Can’t a woman just ride the dick for a minute and go?

This is an entirely different article that should be written. If you are in your 20s, you should not be allowed to make your bridesmaids/groomsmen pay out the etc for your wedding.

Riding a pair of crazes, my partner and I threw a Hamilton-themed gender reveal party. We hired two local urchin children to participate in the reveal and dressed them in blue- and pink-tinted period garb. After an acai bowl brunch, our guests gathered in the courtyard. Both children – the boy child playing Alexander…

I have been on morphine for 10 years due to a chronic pain issue. I have been taking the same dose for the last 5 years. I never, ever take so much that I stumble around or sit in bed rubbing my nose or the shit that is associated with opiate addiction.

Now I’m confused because Europe uses the metric system; maybe I’m only a 6 in America, but it converts to a 10 overseas?

THIS is a high quality rant. Where I would have said to them, “go shit in your hat,” you have crafted a masterpiece. May their tears soak their iPads. I like it. Please, please write a piece on Mumford and Sons. Please!

Zuckerberg gave $100 million to Newark schools. Poisoning kids by replacing pipes would have been a great place to put.

To the GOP I say, “You fuckers have been making this bed since 1980 and now you get to sleep in it. Welcome to your slow, inevitable decline into obscurity and may you continue to forget that Democrats can vote, too.”

Look, I get it. Who doesn’t want to go back to 2005 when it wasn’t so complicated to disagree with your president and you could just drive your Jetta to high school blasting American Idiot while smoking a vanilla clove cigarette? Those were simpler times.

I feel like the cups make my cramps worse on the first day, but after that, it’s pretty much the same..... glad I’m not the only one
