(This, on the advice of my friends, is a great plan and one I would recommend: make an end-of-day appointment, take some pharmaceuticals, have someone drive you home, get in bed with a heating pad, get some soothing food, watch TV.)

Will you be my friend? You seem awesome. And funny.

...and when describing the person of interest, do they only mention the skin color if that person happens to be black?

Word. To your mother.

OMG. WTF.

Spotify just has way more functionality. I like having control over what I listen to.

Whenever there is a sick or suffering pet, you'll hear people say "That animal should be put down. It's the humane thing to do."

Agreed. She's freaking hilarious and so wonderfully, unapologetically VULGAR. I love her as an comedian and even more as a woman. Total girlcrush.

I have never given birth and got my IUD 2 years ago (I'm 39 now). Best decision I ever made, and really, it was no more uncomfortable for me than a regular pelvic exam (although it took a bit longer). And because I got the Paraguard, it's hormone-free, so no crazy hormonal method side effects.

Game. Set. Match.

This is what passes for a pop star: pretty young model type, scandalously clad; a half-decent music producer; and autotune. Oh, and lots and lots of PR. This is why I could care less about what the kids listen to these days, it's mostly fluff.

Last April I was lucky enough to visit the Ninja Cafe in Akasaka, and in keeping in the theme of all things ninja, most the dishes were colored black and/or "hiding". I had the Black Curry dish, and it was really a sight to behold:

I got the same BS run-around when I called to inquire about whether the mocha/white mocha was vegan. The closest I could come was when I followed up by inquired about their allergen information, which revealed that they did contain milk.

That is the cutest alien I have ever seen.

It's not weird to cry over a celebrity death. See: Mr. Rogers.

Words cannot sufficiently express how much I loath the term "butt hurt".

I daresay that if some of these young celebrity-types had survived the 80's like I did, they would avoid some of these prints. Ick.

My boyfriend and I went through 3 (3!) scary condom breaks in 4 months before we finally got me an IUD. Which was pretty freaking expensive. So no, condoms are not a sustainable solution.

So, the police are out to arrest all of Akihabara now, I presume.

This pic is amazing.
