Hey :) That’s what I did... and it’s what my best friend did. I got a gorgeous white cocktail dress at Nordstrom for $150 (on sale). She got her bridesmaids dresses at Zara, and I just gave my sister $200 to buy whatever she wanted. My sister still wears her dress to fundraising events, and I wore my maid of honour…

Oh my god, is THAT what’s happening? I’ve never properly understood this private equity shit, despite devoted NPR listening during the financial crisis. That actually makes sense to me now! And is super fucking infuriating!!

i bought my wedding dress at david’s, and while the stores are totally leaving something to be desired, i loved my dress and no way, as a “plus size” bride, would i have found something i could try on and have options and get for under 750$. all those specialty places are great and look cool on the inter webs, but how…

When I was in my 20s/early 30s I was like a real life 27 dresses. Everyone talks smack about David bridal but as a short and sometimes plus size woman I like that they actually carried dresses in various sizes in the store so I wasn’t guessing based on measurements how some bridesmaid dress was going to fit. I had…

I’m starting to think that the internet is the worst thing that ever happened to humanity. The amount of unchecked propagation of fucking stupid people spreading their stupid ideas to other stupid people will be the downfall of humanity.

It’s not that it has to have the right politics, but is it so, so tiresome that in 2018 we still have films that are supposed to be about race and class with a Black star that are really about the complicated white guy and his awakening due to a friendship with the Black character. It’s always about them, through…

I’ve been a supporter of Mr. Avenatti, but I take charges like these seriously. The jollies I get from watching Avenatti taunt the thin-skinned orange baby do not usurp my values and my decency. Therefore, I support a thorough investigation of these allegations followed by the appropriate course of action.

No, I would watch a whole show of just Lisa in her house with all her pets.
Dorrit is the worst---if it’s her fault I hate her even more.

Well, it’s hard to imagine many 22 year-olds falling in love with this president, for obvious reasons - large and small.

I can’t even imagine the amount of strength Monica Lewinsky must have had to be able to go through the media circus she went through as like a 22 year old and honestly not kill herself. Not trying to make light, but there is no way I would have been strong enough to withstand that kind of emotional whirlwind. Yes, she…

This is the fundamental ridiculousness of VS encapsulated.  Make bras that make tits look bigger, but don’t make bras for those with actual big tits.  

Well you can throw this anecdata on the pile, I graduated in that era and my partner has never once expressed an opinion about my underwear, which falls squarely in granny panty land.

Just want to say hi and that you are not alone in that scary experience. I was born and my right lung collapsed. I’m sure my mother would agree with you that she is thankful for immediate medical intervention. I am 31 now- really, let’s be glad for modern medicine!

My almost 20 year old still sits on my lap!

Just like the anti-vax nutjobs, this is even more infuriating because the victims are the most innocent and without choice. Fuck every single one of these Free Birth idiots. And fuck this whole “natural” movement that’s taking us backwards. Yeah, women used to sometimes give birth alone. But a fucking lot of them…

this radical work of healing the deepest wounds on this earth

Me neither. Breezed in to my SF polling place, voted with a felt-tip pen on a paper ballot, fed the ballots into the machine myself, got my sticker and breezed out. What makes me mad is knowing that this process SHOULD be as easy for everyone else as it was for me, but it isn’t. Voting shouldn’t be a struggle.

Also Adam Levine, the human embodiment of chlamydia. 

This, but honestly it’s gotta be more than just pamphlets.  Parenting is SO. HARD.  And it gets primal.  It’s incredibly difficult to parent differently than you were parented.  Even if you were parented well, the stress of work and money and taking care of another human being who lacks the capacity to take care of…

Seriously! Have you ever seen a little kid? They are LITTLE. And trusting and defenseless and dependent on adults to keep them safe.  Anyone who thinks it is okay to hit them has serious issues.
