Agreed. I am ashamed the Jez has posted this up. Mocking a woman who has stooped to some serious lows because she is desperate for money is NOT feminism.

Assuming she was a bus monitor, as she is repeatedly reported to be, she definitely wasn't doing her job. The problem is, is that we give very little power to people in control of children. Teachers, bus monitors, etc. have very little leeway. They can't just kick them off the bus, or they can get sued...…

I also have this look about me. Apparently I appear very non-threatening, and this translates to random strangers that I am their new best friend. People will chat me up on the bus, the train, the coffee shop. It has its benefits (I am a social person and enjoy meeting new people), but there are times when I just…

This sent me into a fit of laughter because I envisioned you, straight-faced kinda leaning in as if to say "see?" and not smiling at all. For some reason, that cracked me up.

Me too. I have often wondered when women would band together and form a military coup that instead of overthrowing government, overthrows the patriarchal bullshit. I would join.

That would be awesome. I completely approve. :) Also, lol at the mistype (ho). At first I was like... wow, that's not a cool way to refer to your superhero.

I don't necessarily say it like this, but I am not hyper-feminine. I wear little, if any, makeup, I don't spend hours doing my hair, I'm not a huge fan of shopping, etc., and I am a very vocal feminist.

Honestly, the more I think of it, assuming I wouldn't forget everything in an instant while under pressure/panic, I would probably do pretty well. I have watched a ton of Survivorman type shows and have sponged as much of the info as I can. The tampon article on Jez the other day has also been stored into my brain. …

I hope that's not true... it's just too absurd and ridiculous (and traumatizing and disgusting).

I think the comment about the dog being a dolphin sealed the deal for me. That gave me a solid and hearty laugh... thank you :)

Ew.... that's really gross and wrong.

The way I cope with this is to educate myself on how to deal with any medical emergency I can think of. I have self-educated on how to do a tracheostomy, a crycothyroidotomy and a tubation (I have several severe allergies and in the event I am completely isolated, I would like to know how to do this - would NEVER do…

It is!

The part that always blew my mind was his journal. I don't know why, but it just struck a chord with me, and the thought of being unable to remember something you wrote just mere moments before is mind boggling.

The Henry video brings me to tears every time. It's pretty amazing.

It is absolutely amazing how the human brain processes music. Watch these videos:

GTFO of there!! The only thing keeping you there is you. Start applying to jobs in other states and get the Mr. to do it too. If he loves you, he will understand that your happiness relies on your leaving that hell hole. Life is too short to be wasted being miserable!!

I dunno... I mean, if I went to a therapist and they had a deep-seated hatred toward me simply because I have a vagina, or if I was gay, I don't think I would want to be taking psychological medical advice from them. Something tells me that they wouldn't be sensitive to how my vagina/orientation/whatever had…

I can understand the frustration RE: comments. I personally think the comment system is seriously flawed.

Definitely meant Rielle. I mean... positive energy and karma and all that jazz is great, but that lady is unhinged.
