This comment makes me terribly, terribly sad.
Yeah in the last several days of Jezebel news I realized I’ve never heard a Chance the Rapper song or Ed Sheerhan. Im only 32! Is THAT old now?
Cows in the Alps are typically let out to wander the mountainside. They wear these bells (that make a beautiful sound btw) so their owners can locate them, especially if one gets away from the herd. I would say it’s not uncommon for a cow — especially in the 40s — to be quite a ways away from the family home and up…
My uber-Right wing aunt checks on my grandmother everyday and does this shit. Anytime I would come over to visit I’d hear fucking Hannity screaming about how the sky was falling and I’m like “Gramma, let’s put on some Bob Ross, shall we?”
I HAVE THE SAME DAYDREAM!!!
America has the highest infant and maternal death of any industrialized nation and lack of maternal care and maternal leave might have something to do with it. When you’re forced to go to work, or if you’re employer is not obligated to lighten or change tasks if you has a physical job, of course this can cause…
I was actually not much of a fan of Colette TBH. Too many times I’ve been stuck near Concorde needing something and thought “Fuuuuck, I have to go to Colette and pay 5xs the amount...” Like an iPhone charger for 25 euros. Recently more high street stores have opened in the area so it’s easier to find random stuff you…
I got pregnant 2 months after starting my new job 😬 I was so nervous about telling my boss but since I live in France pregnant woman reign supreme and there’s nothing they can do or even insinuate they’re are anything less than ecstatic. I planned to work up to my maternity leave but my doctor put me on work stoppage…
I am (forever) in the greys but I hope someone reads this because I’d love a response. Rachel Maddow recently spoke on her show about a certain anonymous document dump to her website which included incriminating “evidence” of a meeting between Trump’s inner circle and a Russian surrogate. However, she claimed the…
Sure but that FUCKING Kristin Cavalleri column was up FOREVER 😒
Yeah that’s not ok. Airplanes have changing tables that swing down over the toilet in the bathrooms. Maybe that lady just didn’t know?
Ive had to change my kid in a restaurant booth before but the situation was QUITE different. I live in Paris so if you’ve ever been here you know that restaurant bathrooms are typically not much bigger than a telephone booth and DEFINETLY do not have baby changing tables or even counter space. Also, we don’t have a…
Fun fact about Brexit: while there is, of course, Islamaphobia in the U.K. much of the hate I see also directed at Polish immmigrants who have accepted lower wages than their British counterparts thus making it difficult for native British to find good paying jobs. This information anecdotal but comes from a British…
I’ve mentioned this before on here but in France, after you have a child you are offered “perineal reeducation” courses — basically you get a personal trainer for kegals. Re-strengthening your pelvic floor after birth should be a priority for the health of the mother, and of course there is the added sexual benefit —…
I recently went to an exhibition about the history of clothes and I was shocked to find out why women traditionally did not wear pants. Get this: it’s because pants accentuate the split of the legs culminating in their glorious coming-together at the hooha. To keep men from being distracted by the idea that women -…
I use dry shampoo all the time — but don’t you think that the hair you “lose” while using dry shampoo is actually hair that would have normally come out in the shower if you were washing your hair everyday? I’m not sure I would say dry shampoo causes hair to fall out...
In France I never even saw a doctor for my first pregnancy. Not before, during, or after. All was done by midwives and apprentices. A doc is only on duty in cases of c-section or emergency situations. I went the no epidural route too, so I never saw the anastheisologist either (except for a mandatory pre-birth…
I live in Europe and airdry everything! I think it keeps my clothes newer for longer and I rarely ruin things now. The only thing that sucks is trying to do laundry in the winter because it takes 2 days for things to dry 😭
Well, N Korea isn’t exactly known for taking mercy on political prisoners.
