I feel like them separating Jezebel out to be just the beauty/gossip blog is incredibly condescending/mysogynistic. The conversations at Jezebel in response to political subjects are MUCH more reasoned than those at freaking Gawker. But I guess cause I have a uterus I better get my head out of it and go ponder my…

Oh thank fuck. That’s gonna make a lot of people happy.

Thanks for the update, Trout.

mH, Pictorial, Kitchenette, and TheMuse are where most of my preferred GM content originates (oh, and io9). EVERYTHING GOOD IS DYING. D:

Why didn’t you loan him a quarter so he’d be done quicker?

NEVER!

Congratulations, you have officially won Idiot Commenter Bingo.

I just read and became enraged at an article on some local NPR affiliate’s website about how moms aren’t properly connecting with their babies while breastfeeding because they are on their phones.

THIS. I work for PP and we clearly label our clinics Title X, NON-Title X so that we don't funnel patients to health centers that are using federal funding that day. On days where AB services are provided, NO federal funding is used WHATSOEVER.

As a 45 year-old woman, I tell youmitmcan be rally difficult to walk the line between frumpy and mutton-dressed-as-lamb. I don't want to look like a grandma (I'm not one yet.) but I also can't wear the same kinds of things I wore at 30. It's not easy.

I kinda like some of the BHLDN ones, though. Some of those same dresses also pop up when you filter by “bridesmaid dresses” and “reception dresses.” I think, on BHLDN’s website, searches for anything other than “bride” just show all the non-white dreesses. Hence the young models.

While I wholeheartedly support donating to PP, I would like to vent for a moment.

I want some of my taxes to go to that organization as well. The whole point of government is to do for people what people cannot do for themselves.

This is political theater; nothing more, nothing less. This committee knows they have no proof that PP is up to evil shadow organization stuff, so they just have to wag their fingers and declare as loudly as they can how much they hate reproductive freedom. That way, the donors give more and women know exactly where…

To Republicans on Committee: Fuck you. Fuck you. Fuck you.

As a bit of background, the House Committee for Oversight and Government Reform is probably the most useless House Committee. Its purview is basically annoying the president/opposing party.

I’m pretty upset with how Jezebel readers are being so incredibly dismissive and actually shitty about this.
Nursing is a predominantly female occupation and as such has routinely been dismissed as a less than vocation for exactly that reason. We have to fight to be taken seriously ALL the time. I get shitty comments…

I wear my fannypack around my neck like a functional goiter.

I wanted to thank everyone who rallied around while I floundered, keyless, into a new “persona”. I really did panic when I lost access to “randilyn” and I considered just giving up. Of course I would have been able to continue reading all the articles by my favorite authors, admiring Tara Jacoby’s brilliant…
