    I could see her struggle. I had a somewhat similar situation. I had a client brought in for anger management stemming from child endangerment charges. She looked somewhat familiar and I wondered if she had been in a similar program or worked with another case manager in my office.

    It’s like gun nuts are playing out some insane form of performance art.

    I can’t count how many times* I’ve been given knives, pepper spray, stun guns, etc from well meaning male acquaintances.

    I am a small woman and have been the victim of a stranger attack. I have done my best to not let it keep me from doing what I want or need to do...though it terrifies every man I know.

    We were raised mid-upper middle class and had relatives on either side of the financial strata. I almost expected it more from some of the lower income family members because maybe they didn't realize how expensive per plate seating was? The wealthier family members definitely did and still expected extra

    I had to do the same thing when I was a MOH. People added names to the rsvp and even tried to get additional plus one invitations for their own in laws- no relation to either party getting married. They were shocked when I called and said that wasn't possible.

    My friend did that. They had a kids buffet and games and coloring books. She herself had kids so it was very important to her that children feel welcome.

    I'm scared of space and the ocean. I'm doomed to be a land stander.

    His is the voice I hear in my head when making major decisions.

    I could ALWAYS tell when my ex boyfriend saw a new porn clip. It was usually a mix of hilarious and horrifying.

    Thanks. I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to make it a downer statement. It’s just one of those things that my personal experience makes it hard for me to warm up to a character. Honestly I’m the same way once someone ruins a name for me, I can never like a person that name again.

    I agree that some size variations in fashion could be useful (and theoretically successful) but we also live in a world where most adults are obese or on their way to obese yet we call actresses like Jennifer Lawrence ‘chubby’ or ‘average’.

    My friend and I are both size 0-2. We have crazy different proportions but can basically share clothes looking perfectly fine. This was not the case in high school when I was a 12 and she was a 0. Small and slim is easier to adjust for than curves, bumps, and dips. I don’t know how much it actually has to do with

    It hasn't seemed to hurt the industry, their sales still rise.

    But I still hate Daya’s mom so much...probably because I lost my saint of a mother around the time I started OITNB, but Jesus...she's just awful.

    ‘But he learned from porn!’

    Twins run in my family as well (at least two sets on each side). It was one of the things we talked about when we first met, (you know) all the weird things twins do. I was honestly worried we would be super fertile or our kids would be freakishly prone to litters. Damn you Catholicism.

    Why would she seek to have future embryos destroyed if they weren’t her genetic material?

    Super sperm?

    I’ve always been scared of this because there are multiple sets of twins (identical and fraternal) on both my side and my husband’s. Twins scare the shit out of me and if it is actually a fluke I will be a much happier lady.
