Most days that I am home, if I sit on the couch I end up with one cat on my lap and the other two sitting on top of the sofa right beside my head. They really just want to be near us.

Only one of mine loves me. The other two just yell for food. However, he loves me a little too much. In fact as I am typing this I am reaching over his 19 pound body from an awkward and uncomfortable angle to accommodate his need to sit halfway across my laptop keyboard and my lap. He’s not moving. I tried. He came…

I used to work in a bookstore in Los Angeles, and one night I was at the back counter while a co-worker was shelving. We were bullshitting, and my co-worker rounded a corner while I kept talking, looking toward the area he’d gone. After a few seconds, I realized there was no response. So I called out: “David! David?…

aw. my cats love me so much, it’s always so obvious. they always sit next to me (or on top of me), wherever i go in the house. they follow me everywhere too and wait for me outside the bathroom. i don’t know if they know when i’m coming home, but every day as i pull up to the house after work, they’re in the window…

Also- Every Breath You Take.

I relate to this so hard! I’m 17 weeks and am not really “showing” so much yet as getting firmer. And same on the husband as well. Soooo great when everybody was constantly asking when we were having kids.....

Hang with me bc I’m not trying to make this about the menz, but baby fever is real for guys too. It hit my husband, hard, long before I was ready. It’s almost like the desire to be a parent is a natural feeling many people have! But the snarky responses are typically directed at women.

I never realized how close I was in age to him. Since he became so sad so quickly, I just assumed he was much older.

Totally agree. Even the ones that are supposed to be good (Magic Mike, etc) skeeve me out.

Nope. “Magic Mike” does nothing for me.

Larry Niven’s classic “Man of Steel, Woman of Kleenex” does a great job breaking down the absurdity of it.

I think that was an actual plot point on True Blood.

I have 2 means of getting to work (bus or subway) and I’ve taken the bus for the past 2 years because it’s marginally easier, but a recent schedule change has forced me to start taking the subway. I was complaining to my husband (who takes said subway daily) about this and he seemed confused that a change which adds…

Brad Pitt has a reputation for being incredibly kind and down to earth. I find Angelina Jolie boring (and their relationship reeeeaaaally boring). Also I find Angelina creepy AF.

All day I’ve been reading the Tomi Lahren headlines as, “Woman Lies Down With Dogs, Gets Fleas”

I feel you on the “robotic thing” - I had a home invasion when I was 13, and was bound, tied and gagged in my bathtub, and had a gun to my head Now, 17 years later, I can talk about it with no emotion, almost like any other childhood memory. It almost feels like an out of body experience, or a movie that you watched…

Yup. Let this be a learning lesson to fellow conservative women. Ms Lahren did everything right to be a cool girl, she was one of the ‘good ones.’ She stepped out of a line and all her bros went, “I don’t know her.”

I’m glad you are ok.

Oh my God, I’m so sorry this happened to you. Even ten years on, I’m so relieved that survived, and that you didn’t end up raped or murdered. (There’s really no eloquent way to write that sentiment, is there?)

That’s absolutely horrible! I am so sorry this happened to you. I hope you got all the support you wanted from the state, friends, and family.
