From your lips to God’s ears.

Cutesy - I do not think that word means what you think it means.

If you merge by staring straight forward and pretending the other traffic doesn’t exist, I will hate you until I die.  And then I’ll be reincarnated as myself to continue hating you.

Hard to decide whether Beer Man or The Handmaiden is worse.

It’s probably kind of you to refer to your colleague’s article saying that the coat hanger symbol with a red circle and a diagonal slash to mean no, which has been emblematic of the pro-choice movement for more than 50 years now was “controversial and confusing” (it is neither), but if you read the comments to that…

Are any Republicans out there condemning or at least casting wicked side-eye at these guys praising Hitler?  Ye gods.

What’s wrong with her upper lip?  Is that the effect of fillers?  Serious question.

One of the disadvantages an abused (or raped) person has is that while the violence is taking place, the brain stops working with the frontal cortex, which holds logic and higher mental functions, and goes with the lower level functions that control the fight, flight, or freeze reflexes but don’t take the time to make…

I’d say the real world is not Jezebel. Or more exactly, Jezebel is not the real world. “Democrat” is a pretty wide label. You can range pretty far afield and still be a Democrat if you consider yourself one. There was one Republican Senator I decided to vote for every time he ran for reelection because although I…

So basically, either you let idiots on the internet who might be Russian bots for all you know make you change your vote for a grudge or you’re trying really hard to get some attention. As someone said further up in the comments, not a good look.

Not trying to be picky, but the universe of people who care about what Johnny Depp and/or Amber Heard have to say is dwarfed by the universe of people who read the Washington Post. I’d say you have to have an interest in celebrity gossip and movies. Probably most people who read Jezebel know about Amber Heard’s…

And Christian! Don’t forget Christian! Nothing is more Christian than letting kids go hungry for political reasons!

Wow. I’m so glad they listened to you and caught your cancer right away! A friend of mine had endo, and she also decided a hysterectomy was her best option.  She was so relieved after it was over.  I had a condition where my ovarian veins would swell (due to projesterone surging after ovulation) and blood would pool…

*snort*

Cooling bills are high, and walking the dog can be an exercise in endurance for both you and the dog, especially if she’s a dark color.  We try to stick to the shade.  Along with the super-heated stagnant air comes days on which the pollution levels climb because of the super-heated air, and people are just advised to…

Really!  I’d never heard that.  Where would they go?  I know the British Raj did that; moving from the intense heat of Bombay (Mumbai, in modern terms) and Calcutta (Kolkata, ditto) up into the mountains, but I didn’t realize there was a place the feds would go in the summer.

I would import an early model VW Rabbit, like the one I drove in the 80s. Made in Germany. 5 speed transmission. With snow tires, would go up any hill in the snow at any time while other cars were spinning their wheels at the bottom. An absolute blast to drive on good days. It’s missing safety equipment - air bags,…

I just read this article in The Cut: https://www.thecut.com/2022/06/period-pain-ruined-my-life-until-i-found-the-right-doctor.html.  Apparently internal polyps are not uncommon and cause intense pain and bleeding.  

Yes, Washington DC regularly gets into the upper 90s in both temperature and humidity in the summer. It’s really unpleasant. You sweat, but you don’t cool off because nothing evaporates. The air is almost too thick to breathe.  Before air conditioning, British diplomats, who were unused to the high temperatures, got…

My friend, try ibuprofen. I started taking it for cramps when it was still a prescription drug. It’s like magic. I can’t take it anymore because of ulcers, but it’s the drug of choice, as far as I know, for cramps. It’s a prostaglandin inhibitor, and cramps are caused by prostaglandins (don’t ask me how it works, I…
