I’m in the food industry and have only had steady paychecks from women run establishments. I’ve done some one-off work for men, been offered more regular work, but if it jeapordized my availability or seniority at my regular gig I turned it down. The reason is always that I didn’t feel the same level of support and

I actively try to work with mostly women because of this. I’ve just been more successful this way.

I think we know why the women were rotated through quickly. Why no one ever thought, “Hey, maybe we should just replace the guy who’s the problem instead of the women who did nothing wron,” tells you how deeply ingrained misogyny is in everything.

Tyra and mama Ru will eat those girls alive. I’m not entirely convinced they aren’t the same person btw.

You can’t posthumously out someone. They are dead. They do not care if they are in the closet anymore. Because they are dead.

The question that is floating through my mind: “Was those greens cooked with ham hocks or a turkey neck?”

Shout-out to Ann Curry!!! I hope you are celebrating wherever you are, hon.

My stomach is growling. I’m on vacation from my regular job this week so I scheduled a bunch of unpleasant appointments, like a root canal, and declared I wasn’t cooking that much. But I’m already regretting no Mac and cheese. We are doing Friendsgiving Saturday so I guess I can make up for it then.

Let’s face it, turkey is the worst part of Thanksgiving. Side dishes are what I come to the table for...

There is no better pie than sweet potato pie.

Yes *sad trombone*

Not because it was good. I was just happy I didn’t have to see this fucking photo everyday.

Five points from Hufflepuff for thinking “five points from” means I gave him points instead of deducting them.

I was 6 years old belting out “Not Gon Cry” like my LIFE depended on it.

That video for “ Not Gon Cry” was LIT!..... MJB killed that , black lipstick , black headscarf and sunnies look!

When I was about 35, a guy at work asked me about the then recently-published study about how hard it supposedly was for women over 35 to find partners and asked me if I was lowering my standards. (This sounds worse than it was - it was smack talk, which we engaged in frequently at that office). I told him the truth -

I am not leftover. I never put myself on the table.

That episode was the one that finally got me to quit Grey’s. I held on for so long, going through the painful motions for years. Then I tuned in one week and Meredith was singing and I nope’d away and never looked back.

I can relate. I once chased a sandwich vendor down the street yelling “open face sucks! Give me the other piece of bread, you cheapskate!”
