I was just going to post this same bag. I love mine. I call it my clown car carry-on because I can fit so much stuff inside. And I also agree with it being super easy to over pack because it holds so damn much. I generally use it backpack style so I have my hands free while roaming about the airport.

Yes. There are ways to be friends with people who are younger. Hell, I’ll even take it a step further and say that I sometimes hang out with a group of people, the youngest of whom is 21, to watch various geeky TV shows and talk about gaming. I did go to his graduation party, but it was the kind where I said hello to…

i’ll give u an illegal butt injection, girl

You have your looks, your pretty face. And don’t underestimate the importance of BODY LANGUAGE!

As a real mermaid, I approve this message.

If Ariel isn’t played by a real mermaid that I’m not here for it.

The Little Mermaid is absolutely the saddest. My mother bought the book for me when I was younger & it made me cry so goddamn much. I read somewhere the other day that Alice Munro started writing as a young girl after reading the Little Mermaid, and being so upset at the ending that she had to rewrite a happier…

That really drives how purely this is about bullshit “modesty” culture (which is just another word for rape culture). It has nothing to do with the actual child’s body—just as you say, your daughter’s body is only considered wanton and slatternly when people realize she’s a girl. The exact same body is perfectly…

Your description of both those swimsuits made me smile. That is so ridiculous, though. My best friend just had a baby girl and for Christmas (they live in Australia) I sent her a super adorable neon turquoise ruffly swimming diaper. It didn't even occur to me to think that she would wear a top with them. Because she's…

I got side-eye because my baby girl (which you could only tell because I’d stuck her in these stupidly cute pink, ruffled, flower-print swim bottoms) didn’t have a shirt. I put her in the equally stupidly cute green bottoms with elephants and everyone at the pool is all smiles for my handsome little man.

You got side-eyed because your BABY wasn't wearing a top? Good lord.

Reminds me of Merrill Markoe’s bit about why we shouldn’t look to supermodels and actresses for beauty tips—what advice can they really offer besides, “Next time you’re born, try to have better looking parents”?

I let my 19 month old run around in just in swim bottoms because 1) she’s 19 months old, there is nothing remotely sexual about her pre-pre-pre-pubescent body 2) I ain’t got time to try an wrestle a wrigling toddler out of a wet lycra top or, god forbid a 1-piece swimsuit. Last year, I got some side-eye for this (yes,…

hm. a fake person and a real person having a relationship. w ryan gosling in it.

Get this fucking family off tv please

Oh man, my coffee shop job had promised me health insurance and kept just magically not giving it to me (this was before Obamacare so I was on my own). I called in sick one day but got my shift covered (I thought he’d want to know the other guy was coming in for me!), and my dickbag boss told me I needed to bring in a…

Prince was there too, you say?

Okay, but does Meryl’s cover of “Bad Romance” include the lyrics “I don’t wanna speak Fre-e-e-e-ench, ‘cause I don’t even come from France” right after the French part like my cover does? Where’s my Oscar?

I loved this movie. That’s all.
