I'm not sure if someone else said this but tarm is a wicked troll. See also: her posts on Miss Pennsylvania and what causes rape.

It calls people's attention to things. People get angry. Then politicians enact change.

Hashtag campaigns actually work. I know I shared my #YesAllWomen story, and within a day I had 250 views of that tweet. That means at least 250 people heard my story, and plenty more were hearing the stories of others.

Ugh I tweeted yesterday that it might not be a smart idea to be an ass while the film you're working on is having production problems. He just keeps digging his hole deeper.

Ugh, I am skinny and there was a period in my life where I was also skinnier due to an illness. I did not look healthy, and I can admit it, but then again I was not healthy at all. One night, after recovering from a three-day bout of vomiting, stomach pains, and bleeding, my husband decided to take me out to our

5'8", 110 - and I eat like Liz Lemon. Everyone around me knows.

Hahah I just purchased some Tropical Febreeze for our System Admin who has a really rank office. It was Hawaiian Tropics. I asked him how it worked and he goes, "I think you got me Hawaiian Tourist by mistake. It now smells like a Wal-Mart in there"

Ugh, yeah I am always amazed. I will admit my first one was a huge surprise since we were using protection, but we had been married and our relationship was fine and we wanted to keep the baby who is now five (oh God, I feel old typing that). However, there were a ton of questions about just why we weren't getting an

You are a far better person than I am. I would have punched them in the face and then gone home to cry into a pint of Ben and Jerry's Phish Food.

Yeah I can't think of it being an unflattering photo really bothering me that much. One time, hubby took a picture of me sleeping as we were travelling into NYC at sunrise. I really don't mind that he did it. He had it on his iPhone background for a while but that was it.

I remember having a debate with my friend in college about whether or not on looks alone, we would go with the villain over the hero. Answer is: villain wins every time. Her one caveat to me was, "do you really want to be with someone who uses antlers in ALL of their decorating?"

The only one I like is the sign that our Chief Compliance Officer has. On one side it says "keep calm and carry on" and on the other it says "now panic and freak out". She switches it depending on the day.

Yeah the condescension is the worst part of pregnancy. Our second child was "semi-planned", as in we were considering having another kid but weren't really trying and didn't think it would happen right after going off my birth control, and I seriously got a bunch of "didn't anyone teach you sex education" and "you

Exactly. I am tiny and during my second trimester, my back and sides were constantly sore while I was expanding. I could not deal with rigid or too tight.

Target has good maternity clothes, and forever 21 tanks and tees in a larger size are long-length so you can wear them as maternity clothes.

I really wonder why anyone would opt for an unattended birth. During my second birth, I apparently (I say 'apparently' because I have no recollection of this) blacked out between pushing the child out and pushing the afterbirth out. I had lost so much blood so quickly that my body couldn't handle it. I wonder what

Good luck to you! I had two: one that was semi-induced (i.e. they broke the water and put some stuff on my cervix to speed the labor process since boychick #1 was WELL overdue to come out) with an epidural and one where the child practically flew out of me so it was too late for drugs and I almost didn't make it to

I don't know. Then again, I also never thought about having aquatic mammals assist in in my childbirth experience.

Thank you, that was what I needed!

She had some weird diatribe about how we're all descended from dolphins or something. I showed it to a friend who was stoned at the time and even he couldn't make sense of it. If I remember correctly she also had a Lisa Frank-style dolphin tattoo.
