I cried this morning at work when I read that she had been evacuated. Then I went into the bathroom and sobbed in the stall because yesterday a tv journalist reported on a 5 year old child in Syria who was in surgery WITHOUT ANAESTHESIA. He was reciting verses of the Quran out loud to withstand the pain.

I have to do something amazing in the next four years so that I can loudly and publicly refuse to meet Trump.

For any Jezzies in the DC area, please consider coming out and supporting Comet. My family was there Saturday, less than 24-hours before this idiot walked in with an AR-15 assault rifle. We were with friends and their child, supporting this beloved local business...and now we will be going there every damn week to…

So, what I’d like to see are Women’s colleges that are NOT focused on liberal arts. I would love it if there were some really good Women’s colleges that were all about the STEM. Maybe more women would be inclined to get STEM degrees if it was a single gendered school? I think it would be a good experiment to get…

that... is an excellent idea. I could do it like a what-not-to-wear reveal party with all the cool family members. sibling gets a day all to themselves and people will already be prepped with the news by the time my wedding rolls around so it won’t be as big of a deal. thank you!

That was a major plus for my sister having her wedding on base. We have a horribly embarrassing family “friend” (more like my mom was too non-confrontational to cut her off her years ago) who kept publicly inviting herself to the wedding and ignoring the uncomfortable non-response.

Thatz not okay. It’s your wedding. Your event. This is a really selfish request.

Ha! That’s what I did! My brother’s stalker called there to try to get info!

Easiest way for to block someone from not attending your wedding/reception? have it on an active military base. thats what i did

this will probably end up in the greys but I’m hoping the wise women of Jez can offer some counsel.

My wife and I had to seek out Dr. Hern’s services about 5 years ago.

Things came to a head with 1971's Get The Fuck Out of My House, Amelia Bedelia, And Don’t Come Back Or Ask for References

I did not remember that Amelia Bedelia was such a fucking idiot until I started reading them to my daughter. After the first two, she looked at me and said “is she not being smart on purpose?”

OH GOD. Do you remember what episode you were watching? Oh God, was it Home?

These artifacts are on public display in their own room in the institution where I work, and I like to go and sing to them most days. I am not from the culture that created them but I think singing to them keeps them warm and is a gesture of humility and respect to the ancestors.

Aw I love the happy ending with your mom and her new house spirit.

Not a paranormal story, but I was incredibly creeped out by this.

One of my great aunts owned a small farm in Wisconsin. Its was about 40-50 min outside of town and on weekends I’d sometimes go with my mom, brother, grandma, cousins, and whoever felt like going that weekend.

Back in the early 2000s I lived in a brownstone in Park Slope. It was a duplex with one floor of the apartment on the ground floor and the other floor in the basement. My brother and I shared the apartment – I was on the ground floor and his room was in the basement. At first we didn’t notice anything strange but it…
