Fellow atheist checking in to agree wholeheartedly.

When all the 40-year-old moms are being celebrating for rocking this look, we can call it empowering. I’ll wait for you to call me and let me know.

Same in Texas. But after MLK Day became a federal holiday, our state government changed the official state holiday from “Robert E. Lee Day” to “Confederate Heroes Day.”

WOMEN NO LONGER GIVE A FUUUUUUCK.

This actually makes me happy. Because I hate that show. And that stupid Garrison Keillor show. It’s like radio programming for people in St. Olaf. Glad their preciousness was interrupted by a vulgar pop culture icon. Good.

And, yet,…

Best wishes for your continued health! I am in a similar boat, but I’m 10+ years out of undergrad and have continued to gain that 3 pounds a year... at 5’0”, this is untenable. I now need to lose a good deal of weight.

Cue all the self-congratulatory corset fetishists arriving in the comments. #corsetsplaining
