Greenpeace Brazil said 95 wells have already been dug in the region, according to the Guardian. None of them have been viable as successful sources for gas or oil.

For me, being smart was looked at as being an uncool thing, even starting back in early grade school. This was the 1980s. I knew I was a smart girl, but I never wanted to come across as too smart. Kids would taunt you for being too brainy or doing better than them. You only wanted to be just smart enough to get…

I think you can be a feminist and anti-abortion, but you can’t be a feminist and be anti-choice. Feminism isn’t about the right to “live out our womenhood.” It’s about working to liberate women from the oppression of the kyriarchy. Feminists don’t have to see abortion as an option for themselves, but attempting to…

“Human life, beginning at the moment of conception, is sacred in all of its forms and today, I introduced a bill that will protect the lives of voiceless innocents,”

Let’s not forget that articles like this seem to suggest that men who are misogynists are bad, but that men who are “allies” aren’t quite good enough either.

“They’re not total abomination rapes where strangers are being dragged off the streets,” Rose later said at a Community Council meeting Wednesday night.

My brother told me this story years ago and I’ve always had a ‘what - how can that happen’ reaction. So, my brother worked in upscale hotel security in Chicago and one night he and another guy were called to the honeymoon suite because of a panicked phone call. They get there and there’s a hysterical young woman…

“It hurt the first year or so.” No kidding! OMFG.

I’m not surprised - this is what can happen when people don’t have sexual education and have to just figure it out.

the ending of X is the only game that reliably makes me tear up, i’ve finished it 6 or 7 times and not once has it failed to make me ball my eyes out.

HA HA HA

That’s the thing a lot of people don’t understand... it’s not a difference of political opinion anymore, it’s an issue of common human decency. And the republicans have shown that they have none - almost every hill they make a stand on is genuinely about keeping the downtrodden down under the boot of the…

Wife and I went to Macys and did the whole Registry party thing they throw. We gave them a bum email account I use, filled up on their snacks and drinks, scanned a bunch of stuff we knew we were never getting and left with a full stomach. Never told anyone about that registry. Wife and I lived together for several…

Many vestigial parts of the wedding industry hate millennials.

I wish I was as confident as Trump is, regarding things I know. He sees a tweet and is like “I KNOW THIS IS TRUE” I study something for years, dedicate thousands of hours to learn something, and some rando on the internet is like “mmm, are you SURE?” and I’m googling frantically to verify that 2+2=4.

“I’m still open-minded,” he told Chris Wallace. “Nobody really knows. Look, I’m somebody who gets it, and nobody really knows. It’s not something that’s so hard and fast.”

Remember when President Obama played golf on occasion and took family trips at Christmas and in the summers, and everyone took it super well because everyone knows the President has lots of spare time? Me either.

I happily voted for her, but she and her campaign deserve the blame. I have no idea how they couldn’t figure out how to beat that guy but sitting around and not campaigning in formally industrialized states and just hoping he’d shoot himself in the foot was not a good strategy (obviously)
