Folklore is a truly incredible album.

My parents have slept in separate rooms for around 15 years. They have been married over 30 years, happy, equals, supportive, and best friends. So many people simply cannot wrap their heads around the fact that my parents sleep in separate rooms. I remember in high school my friends used to ask “are you sure its not…

This is why, despite all the insanity and annoyances and insane workload during the academic year, I still love and continue teaching. That summer vacation is pure magic.

No I completely understand, I’m in my mid-20s and it was scary how closely I related to and understood that comment. I’ve had relationships where I’ve grappled with that exact question - I want more out of life and want to move on and adventure, yet some of these connections are so strong and I don’t know if I should…

I feel like Jessa might overdose.

I genuinely love Girls as well, and its really special to me because I actually am the age and demographic this show targets. It premiered when I was in college, and I was 20. I’ve watched it as it has aired, and I’m 25 now. I think I’m a couple years behind the main characters (I’m assuming they’re late-ish 20s) but…

I have loved Girls ever since it started but to be honest this baby plot is ruining the whole thing for me. I will be so disappointed if that’s how it ends.

*SPOILERS*

I love Girls, and I too got emotional watching Sunday’s episode. I really love Girls because every now and then they just absolutely nail what relationships feel like. Did you watch the credits when it had a scene from Adam’s movie of him and Hannah first meeting? I loved it.

That book really resonated with me and shook me a bit, even though I personally have never had issues with addiction and only have non-immediate family members who have struggled with alcoholism. The writing was incredible and it stayed with me for a while. Her early death made reading her memoir in 2016 a very somber…

Just started last night, only read about 15 pages so can’t give any reviews yet! Love your username btw :-)

Yeah, great article but I’m a bit puzzled by the headline. Especially because its definitely no secret that hazing is a problem in white fraternities - that is a very mainstream fact. I’d go as far as to say that people probably only think of hazing in the context of white fraternities.

Honestly? I flipping love memoirs. I know everyone says there are too many being written but I live for addiction based/life-blowing-up memoirs. I read all the classics like “Lit,” “Drinking: A Love Story,” the newer one “Blackout” by Sarah Hepola all this past summer. Just started “How to Murder Your Life” by Cat…

Female Chauvinist Pigs was a hugely influential and formative text for me in my development as a feminist. That book put into words the discomfort and confusion I had felt about contemporary society. I was a sophomore in college when I read it. I had been identifying as a feminist for years, but that book really gave…

I can’t wait to see it portrayed on the next season of Vanderpump Rules! Favorite episode.

I was put in the greys a few months ago, somewhere around the time Gawker went down. I am not sure why; I made a comment criticizing how Jezebel and the commenters tend to build up women celebrities and then gleefully start a backlash/tear them down...maybe that was enough to grey me? Idk.

Fair enough, but I want to point out that at no point did any of the organizers try to shame anyone for not participating. There was NEVER any sentiment like that. I think this article, and a lot of the commenters, are just pointing out that there appears to be a very fundamental misunderstanding of the history of…

So true. I swear I feel like the left just enjoys fighting and these days its all about the oppression olympics. I have been so annoyed at all the “striking is for privileged women!” especially as a U.S. history teacher.

Yeah exactly, that is my point.

I know. I keep seeing all these posts about how people can’t afford to miss the day but...that is kind of the point of strikes and boycotts. They’re supposed to be inconvenient and difficult.
