@jcb820: I expect it was just good natured ribbing.

@MotherChucker: Ditto. It's tiresome.

@I, Zombie Normal: Ganesh has been known to show up when he has a powerful milk thirst. [www.milkmiracle.com]

Simply stunning.

I thought for a moment that the photo had already passed through Perez's clever, insightful hands.

@rixatrix: I love the line, "Patriarchy hurts men, too."

@Gonkette: I'm not too proud to give my heart to someone just because she gives me the clap.

@rixatrix: Nah. You're good. I'm just in a "What is a feminist" loop in my life right now, with some younger women of my acquaintance suggesting that feminism isn't relevant anymore and me bristling about it. There is such a huge misunderstanding about what feminism *is* that I chafe whenever any definition that seems…

@rixatrix: You might be a feminist if you find yourself unexpectedly pregnant and make the choice to carry to term because you can balance a job and a child as a single mother and do just fine.

@CurtCole: Only if she crafts a David as well.

@BeckyIva: Pshaw. I have Helly Hanson versions that are kickass for snow and cold weather when I'm wanting to do some serious winter walking, but dude! They take ten minutes to lace up. They are a chore. Cute, yes. Functional, yes. Convenient? No. And they lack that feeling of a warm, sheepy hug that Uggs give my feet.

@BetteD: It's like a piece of art. It's perfect. I'm both jealous and inspired that nature could create something so beautiful.

@leesie: Chills. Hearted. Thank you.

@AllieCaulfield: I love how so many of the skaters mature and become dazzling artists when they stop competing.

@Alys Brangwin has a huge talent: I remember that one! The galas are always so fabulous.

@Alys Brangwin has a huge talent: Oh, me too. Old figure skating grudges never die. I was talking with someone recently who was still mourning the Battle of the Brians.

@Elizabth_Bennet: Of course. Is he the best athlete in the sport? Maybe, maybe not.

@sableized (vive la suisse!): The Exhibition Gala on the second last night of the Olympics will showcase the medalists. Sometimes they just repeat their routines, but usually the fun stuff comes out then.
