Thanks for the link. The problem is that to a determined DV meathead a TRO really is just a piece of paper linked to a LE response that if you're lucky is 5 minutes away.

Former experienced lead singer here... (of no band you've ever heard of). I worked multiple shows, 2 to 4 sets of 45 minutes, just about every weekend for about eight years.

I agree on the communication thing, but disagree on the idea that it could have anything to do with him not being into her or the relationship. Many women orgasm more quickly the more comfortable they are with the person they are having sex with. In the same way some men orgasm more quickly the more comfortable they…

what might cause a healthy 38 year old man to suddenly only be able to last like 45 seconds during intercourse? Last night it was maybe 30 seconds.

He's a fucking idiot. To show your employers pornographic videos to prove your innocence was strike one. Strike two was creating that bullshit Facebook post, and strike three was the frivolous lawsuit. You'rrrrrrrre out, Ghomeshi!

Still the single worst Tinder pic ever:

guy support here. i get wigged out when anyone knocks on my door. i'm sure it's even worse when you're a lady. that sucks. wish you could give him a good kick in the balls.

Don't go home for Thanksgiving. I've done it more than once. Turkey at the diner and go see a movie. This is especially satisfying if this will annoy your Mom.

But...Daylight Savings Time is ahead. Spring forward and all that.

I was once harassed by a group of The Youths on a sidewalk outside a bar in France. Whether they intended to take things further than they got, I don't know. My male friend had gone inside the bar to grab his jacket, leaving me alone literally for less than two minutes. While gazing at the chateau across the street, I…

Jeffrey and Shoshanna sound insufferable. Cotton found a way out, hoping for the life of a coddled only cat, rather than being one of 31. Be free, Cotton.

Something like this I hope.

This is where we must remember that they are just people as well. They may be a doctor or a nurse, but that just means they went to a medical school. It in no way makes them a good person. Depressing.

I feel a great disturbance in the Tort, as though millions of HIPAA compliance officers suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.

No, she's wrong. They're building an extension of Muni Metro underground that will go from the Caltrain station to Chinatown. That's why Union Square has been an even bigger shitshow lately - all the construction has blocked off all sorts of things.

I have the flu and am in a hellish mood in addition to the disgusting and miserable conditions associated with said flu. This, Jia Tolentino, made me LAUGH. Thank you.

Listen, I've heard En Vogue's "Free Your Mind," too. You're not going to educate me on the minority experience in America any more than my life already has. There's a massive difference between flustered, furious and crazy. As a person of color, a "plus size" person, and a gay person I'm very familiar with what…

According to the complaint call, they were fucking in his car on a public street in broad daylight with the door open. This isn't police overreach, this is Celebrity Special Snowflakedom at its grossest level.

Which is also, I believe, the reason for which UC Berkeley is reputed to have one of the highest crime rates of any university or college; because the police can and do patrol the environs of UC Berkeley as well: notably Telegraph, et al. And so when violence is reported there, it is added to the tally (and reflects…

A note on jurisdiction at UC Berkeley.
