Shelter Cat Update!

It has been a delightfully perfect weather day here in the Pacific Northwest. Highs under 70, mostly cloudy with a bit of sun, no rain, just a slight breeze, and I’ve been making a lasagna and garlic bread for dinner with my neighbor. She’s vegetarian so I’m using “Beyond Sausage,” which I’ve used before and it’s…

Few people get to feel as vindicated for their teenage passions as Cara can claim to be. She was so right and everyone else was wrong!

Made the mistake of clicking before reaching the comments. This guy... basically summed up with she didn’t deserve to be cheated on and I love her, but my “nature” is to sleep with as many chicks as I can so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Absolutely. When I was in high school I was told I had “thunder thighs” and was called a “butter face” meaning “everything is good but her face” The thing is I weighed 98 lbs in high school! I was so skinny and small. But those insults have stayed with me. I am 32 now, I work out almost every day, and I look great but…

Mindy once talked about how a journalist who did a profile on her mentioned in the article that she ate jam on her toast and described it as confident or something similar.

I just hate this for her.

When she was 25 years old, and working as both writer and actor on The Office, one of her co-stars made a suggestion for a fun “joke”: that their character should suggest that her character, Kelly Kapoor, drop 15 pounds.

I always found it...interesting, I guess?...that for all the problems plus-sized models are supposed to address, they’re still stunningly gorgeous people. Like, yes, they are slightly larger than what we expect of models, and representation is good, but it’s hard to imagine most people looking at drop-dead gorgeous…

So Harvey Weinstein consultant, OJ Simpson-defender, Epstein underwear massage-getter Alan Dershowitz is upset. Because he was taken to task about hanging with former students, at least two of whom (Pompeo and Ted Cruz) are assholes. I wouldn’t be quick to claim them.

Good for Larry David.  May it ever be thus to all Trump enablers.

My 16 year old baby lez loves the Owl House and we watch it together.  It is so nice to some representation for her. 

just so I’m clear: so basically pansexual is the universal adapter, right? Like, no matter what the situation, orientation, whatever’s on the menu, isn’t an automatic dealbreaker, right? A pansexual can be with an asexual as easily as be with a gender fluid nonbinary person, correct?

Yes to both. There’s a huge overlap between the bi and pan labels because the vast majority of bi people aren’t exclusionary of non-binary genders, but the distinction matters to some people which is fine.

My husband is non-binary, and I find that the bi label makes the most sense to me! Use what fits. And for whatever reason. Does the better flag help with picking the label? That’s a good enough reason. Wanna use the pan label because it makes more sense to you, but like the bi flag better? Use it, who cares.

I agree with Taylor, in that pansexual and bisexual seem to mean the exact same thing, and it’s just a generational difference. I’m an old, so I call myself bisexual, but I am attracted to trans and nonbinary people as well.

Hard disagree on the flag front though, boy oh boy do I love those bright CMYK printer-ink-cart…

You can still be bi and attracted to nonbinary people. Basically all of the bi people I’ve met ascribe to the Bisexual Manifesto definition of bi (in that it isn’t binary and encompasses attraction to multiple genders). I myself am also bisexual and nonbinary, and don't personally see any contradiction in identifying…

Being targeted by One Million Moms (AKA Monica Cole’s Lone-Ass Self) is practically a badge of honor.

I’m sorry, did Gaga not pay Ryan Fischer a ton of money for recovering from getting shot? I know everybody loves her and worships her, but she was still his employer. As Ryan was shot while walking her dogs that the attackers were trying to dognap, she’s liable and ethically obligated to take care of him.
