If you live in Los Angeles, you can wear these to the grocery store while pushing your dog stroller. 

You mean if she worked in the service industry? Yes, that would *also* be terrible and it is less likely she would try to breastfeed at all. But that doesn’t make her situation less terrible or unlawful. 

I’ve been riding public transportation in major cities (DC, NY, LA) for going on 10 years now, and while I’ve been stalked and verbally abused, I’ve never seen anyone actively shitting or vomiting. Perhaps I have a guardian angel?

This wins because it is so succinctly horrifying. You are the Ernest Hemingway of public transportation anecdotes.

Some of these illustrations hearken back to “I Modi” (aka The Ways to Have Sex), which were engravings by Raphael’s one-time collaborator, Marcantonio Raimondi, in the 1520s. Hoo boy, he got in trouble.

Oh my! I wonder if that is the same William Wallace who teaches art history at Wash U. 

Curious if Jezebel realized that this post would become a litany of childhood abuses. This is rough reading and I am sad. 

I love the Alfa/Cardi music video to pieces, but it is also a painful reminder that I do not follow Dominican Spanish at. alllllll.

Oklahoman. ALWAYS ONLY peh-KHAN! Everything else is wrong!

My mother, raised in the highland South, swears that peh-KHAN is the ONLY real Southern way and that pee-can is for Northerners and fakes. I’m wondering if this is a coast/highland problem. 

He looks like a thumb.

Ahem, don’t you diss my beloved Freak Show with its crip solidarity!

This is a story that has been passed down in my family, and I may be telling it wrong, but:

I’m distantly related to the Pioneer Woman, so I’m laughing and wondering if her super-tanned, not-black grandfather is the relative I’m thinking of, or somewhere on the other side of her family. I’m pretty sure that story came out of the same tone-deaf intersection of liberalism and Oklahomaness that led Elizabeth…

Is no one here a hedonist?

Dude, I guess I look celebrity-pregnant every day of my life.

Vulva! Please! Vulva. The word that is even more forbidden than vagina.

I agree with brighter: if I don’t control my body, I don’t have anything. If the Democratic Party doesn’t stand behind me in this issue, then I’m not sure what they do stand for, and I don’t know why I would trust the party to represent my interests in any other area.

I’m a democratic voter. I would not vote for an anti-choice candidate. This would decisively push me towards a third party. This would be true even if I lived in Alabama or Oklahoma. Even if they won over some Republicans with this move, wouldn’t they risk losing just as many Dems in the same district? Scratching my…
