Hoo boy, sounds like girlfriend had some issues. I’m sorta torn between contempt and pity.

I broke up with a friend who, as I was crying from being exhausted by the sexual harassment I was receiving in a muslim country on vacation, told me “you should be happy you’re getting attention, no one is even paying attention to me”. Fuck her and her fucking face.

They do. And grown men shouldn’t be treated like they can’t have emotions and weaknesses and needs, either. And women and girls also shouldn’t be tasked with bearing the burden of doing all the emotional labor of taking care of men and maintaing relationships (and childcare, and housework, and they shouldn’t be…

This is heartbreaking. :( My son was a very sensitive baby and little boy who cried a lot, was easily frustrated, and hated being separated from me, just as the piece quoted above says. I think and hope that I nurtured him tenderly and gave him what he needed emotionally, but it makes me so sad to imagine that some…

i ordered 14 of these chairs for the jez office

This is horseshit. (Not the article, the chairs.) And what breaks my heart is that the kind of parents who think it’s okay to expose their kids to this shit think it’s “cute” and “funny.” When people talk about socializing kids into rigid, patriarchal gender roles and how that’s harmful to everyone (boys and men as…

That quote is so toxic I need a hazmat suit.

I read the worst thing on Facebook the other day and I just really need to share, “This quote my client said to me always makes me tear up: ‘your daughter grows up and becomes a wife but, your son is your son for life.’” I FOREVER NOW MUST TYPE IN ANGER CAPS BECAUSE WHAT IS THIS? WHY? HOW CAN YOU EV? I JUST!!!!!!!!!!!!

“The album—possibly titled 25—is rumored to be dropping in November”

I couldn’t think of a worse place to have sex. Except maybe a port-a-john.

Don’t have sex on a plane!

i like how he’s threatening an independent run, as if there’s a huge subset of voters clamoring for jim fucking webb to be president. “Hmmm I like the idea of a fiscal democrat who ALSO is uncomfortable with black voters AND wants to bomb the shit out of the Middle East. Jim Webb’s my guy.”

Trains, you say?

Imagine how many trains they’d build.

He’s not all sunshine and roses. Trudeau was instrumental in helping the Conservatives roll in Bill C-51 and some other dodgy stuff. However, here’s hoping for some positive change over here in Canada! Anybody has to be better than the Harper Regime....

I love this man. Let’s hope it means Bernie will be our Prez this time next year.

It looks cool.

(Not that any of this precludes me from drinking cocktails and swapping horror stories about his bed-making skills. Total trainwreck.)

My husband is the one who came into the marriage knowing how to cook and how to wield an iron. Generally speaking, I was the useless one around the house. What about Bride Academy? Might've saved us a fight or two, if I'm going to be completely honest.
