He does. They meet while he is on vacation, and once he gets home, he learns Portuguese specifically so he can go back and find her. Simultaneously, she learns English, so when they find each other, it turns out they both felt the same way. It’s not creepy.

Here in Missouri, where abortion docs must have hospital privileges and we only have 2 clinics in the entire stae, a state senator convened an entire committee to find out *which hospital* had granted privledges to the more rural of the two clinics. Turned out it was the University Hospital, which he then threatened…

Really? This one was giving me hella prom vibes.

I would wear that pink, feathery number every day of my life.

Why is your shirt so low-cut, Nicole Kidman’s husband? That, and how long it is in front, leads me to believe that if you took of the jacket, its just an over-sized nightshirt.

Not to mention: Dude, that’s not even how that works.

And am I the only one who thinks it looks like her head isn’t attached to her body in the second one?

I mean, right. I can see, however, how the creators of this policy would be more motivated by some not-so-great values, as opposed to empowering low-income women to make their own responsible reproductive choices. The question, I guess, is if the actual program does the latter, irrespective of the motivations of the…

I started watching it after a season of Downton ended, and it filled my need for a soapy drama. That said, I was just recently saying how it felt like it was getting away from some of the abject batshittery of past seasons (remember when Peggy faked a miscarriage with pig’s blood?? What?). I felt like it was a lot of…

Tangent: I just saw the episode of Empire with Chris Rock as the evil drug king pin, and it made me very uncomfortable and I’m having a hard time with Chris Rock right now.

If I could give you more stars, I would. Right on.

Printers are under no legal obligation to keep your shit a secret, any more than a grocery cashier is obligated to keep what you just bought a secret. Most printers will use samples from past jobs as an example of their work (“Check out this cool poster we did. Here are the various styles of mail pieces we can…

I came here to say the same thing. I hate to be pedantic, but this is an irritating pet peeve of mine. Congress is a proper noun describing the the legislative branch of the federal government.

OBVIOUSLY, those women are not more scantily dressed than a Victoria’s Secret ad. That guy is dumb. And, obviously, this is some “eww, periods are gross! girls are gross!” bullshit. That said, that grapefruit is kind of freaking me out.

Either you are committed to be inclusive of women with children, or your not. I get that childcare is expensive for an organization to provide, just as it’s expensive to expect that a parent to obtain it. If you are committed to being inclusive, you find a way to be inclusive. If you’re going to tell people with small…

I would say yes. How the conference handles it would be dependent on the need. If there were relatively few, I think allowing people to have their babies with them (and take them out when they’re fussy) and providing a nursing area is sufficient. If there would be a lot of people with kids, the conference organizers…

My involuntary response to talking about Bernie Sanders’ underwear:

No. Excluding breastfeeding mothers from professional spaces is a specific mechanism for keeping women out of the workplace. If you force women to obtain childcare or not attend, you are systematically going to exclude particularly low-income and middle class women. Places like this conference should be *especially*…

I feel completely the same way. As the aunt of two little boys, who has more than once been clocked in the face, I’d set myself on fire before I made my nephews feel bad about it for a second.

But they could never make the movie, because anytime Kristen Stewart would have to do a scene with Kirk Cameron, her eyes would roll right out of her head.
