Wait, no love for the MIT Logarhythms?! Come on, now!

"I identify as a feminist. I have so many feminist beliefs — and then I'm so mean to myself about my body sometimes."

Maria Bamford has been my favorite since I saw The Comediennes of Comedy. She stood out the most. I was already a fan of Patton Oswalt, which is why I watched it in the first place.

my favorite Maria Bamford thing:

Can every year be the year of Maria Bamford? She's awesome. The Maria Bamford Show is one of my all-time favorite things.

I figured out why this pisses me off so much.

Good grief, this is really obnoxious. I'm not completely against those movie funding kickstarters that have been criticised lately (though I do side with much of that criticism). But $32 for a fucking music video? Unsigned musicians I know (most of whom are NOT well paid actors) have approximately three options for…

I don't know, I can see what he's saying - we say things like "you earn trust," after all, and no one really rebels at that - but for a lot of people, trust has to come before sex. So if you can earn one, it seems like you can (at least linguistically) earn the other.

If I were their parents I would press charges.

I think the worst part of all this is that when she's off building the world's most advanced prosthetic limbs and other such miracles, the people at the school that tried to ruin her life are going to lean back in their chair and say, "You know...if we hadn't punished her as hard as we did, I bet she never would have…

Thats what I was just saying to my partner as I was reading this it's mega creepy. And you have to think, even though she's blurred the faces and such, the people at the school will know who these girls are, and possibly they have faced some harassment for it. This lady should be ashamed of her self.

Yeah, no. Semicolons are great. I have to restrain myself from using more than one per paragraph in a lot of things I write. In the course of writing my thesis, peer reviewers would constantly edit them out and replace with a period, but they are not interchangeable. If they are, then you're not using semicolons to…

Seriously! And it has such an air of the Aunts from the Handmaid's Tale. "YOUR VEIL IS LOPSIDED TWENTY LASHINGS WITH THE STEEL CABLE." Our culture's so deeply misogynist it's got women policing YOUNG GIRLS.

Yeah, I am not down with people taking butt pictures of other people's children. What on earth does she think this will teach her son, because that is the only kid she needs to be worrying about. Especially because her behavior is normalizing creepshots for him...

"Well, it was news to meeeeeeeee!"

The dress code instructions about hiding curvature of the breasts is the worst. I can't imagine how I would hide my little B cups, but imagine a DD woman trying to hide the curvature of breasts. Not possible, BECAUSE THEY EXIST. A man's shoulders are a huge turn on for me. I demand all men with broad shoulders wear…

My daughter is 13, 5'11" with blond hair and blue eyes. She is fabulous. They recently had the talk about the dress code and I asked her what they told the boys. "No gang stuff." And they girls? They were told that dressing a certain way was distracting. No spaghetti straps, but fettuccine straps were ok.…

This lady reminds me of the time my brother (who was about 2 yrs old at the time, and I was 7) had a weird phobia of my legs. Whenever I'd come downstairs in the morning in just the oversized tee I slept in, he'd always point to my legs, screaming and yelling, "Noooooooo, LEGGGGSSSSS!!!" That's what I imagine this…

I'm thinking that a lot of this just has to do with low body awareness compounded with terrible fashion options. I developed really early, but didn't really "get" my breasts b/c I really didn't have a good sense of my changing body -so, I just wore the same tops I already had and didn't think much of it until school…

That's so fucking insane. The shape of a female body is so oversexualized that school administrators are literally punishing girls for having breasts. Our bodies are not the problem here. What is so unbelievably tantalizing about shoulders?
