I was thinking that too! I totally looks like the loft beds that everyone in my freshman dorm had.

I think I could do the tiny house thing, the smallest apartment I’ve ever had was 500 sq ft, and it was totally fine. But I could only do it in a temperate climate with outside space with some privacy and be able to stash bikes, whatever outside. I’m messy but I find a mess really stressful (it’s not a great combo).…

I agree, maybe in cultural context it is not so scary, but if this was done inside the U.S. It would be pretty upsetting.

It’s incredible to me that people wouldn’t pay attention to evacuation instructions on a ship. The ocean is really fucking big. I've been at sea and it is completely humbling to realize that if you fell overboard and no one saw you, they would never find you. I love it, but not taking the ocean seriously is insane.

This also seems like a good time for some search Engine optimization, she really needs some new internet content to push this garbage off the top line of her google searches.

I hated the weird baby talk between Tara and Willow. On her own, I liked Tara, I thought she was cool, strong, and an unambiguously good person. She highlighted the flaws of the rest of the characters in a nice, quiet way. Alyson Hannigan did sorrow and rage so well, I can see the temptation to give her a reason to…

I havnt watched since the first season,but didn’t they do that with two of her early love interests? If it wasn’t five minutes after a big emotional moment, it was within n episode or two, if I recall correctly.

This was the original motivation for the law, many Native American children were removed from homes, in many cases permanently, in part to “integrate” them into the majority population. It is a shameful part of our history that, unfortunately, still lives on. I don’t know anything about the particulars of this case,…

The bridal party on a dais is so weird and awkward, especially for the dates of attendants. I did this once at a wedding where I knew my date, the groom, and no one else. Super awkward. Plus, my flight had been delayed so much that I actually missed the wedding, so couldn't even use that for small talk.

Best wedding attendant gift I ever got was when the couple paid for my plane ticket to get my broke ass grad student self to their wedding. Seriously, no one wants a little silver box or to have matching necklaces.

I agree, I think if it is legalized you have to go all the God damned way with unions and trade organizations and absolute transparency. Because when something is in the grey zone there is a massive amount of space for shady folks to operate. The modern porn industry seems like a good example. You have a heavily…

I know you are probably sick of this suggestion, but have you tried a neti pot or saline nasal rinse? I find it makes me immediately more comfortable and seems to shorten the duration of rotten sinus infections. I feel like it heads the bullshit off before it turns into bronchitis too.

I’m with you, I think that episode of wait wait was the first time I’ve heard her speak. Kim was charming, clever, and patient with smarmy Peter seagal. It didn’t take great skill to become famous for a month, but to stay famous for ten years? And make tens of millions of dollars?She is far more savvy and disciplined…

I live in Houston, where most cabs are dispatched and have an average arrival time of 60-90 minutes from the pre-arranged pickup time, this is in the densest part of the city. Consequently, I use Uber all the time. I would rather take cabs. And I would, if I had any faith in being able to get where I want to go. I…

They can remove the person from their service. Also, they have all the identifying information for the driver, so you can tell the police about Mike Smith, residing at 123 1st street rather than some guy named Mike.

We did is for my Grandma in the last few years of her life. She had someone in every day (usually my Mom), but those of us farther away had a schedule to call and make sure she was ok. Sometimes it irritated her, and sometimes it was irritating to me (being a 22 year old, I was terrible and would have a hard time…

Yes! Regulations, especially good, technically based regulations are incredibly important. I work in a heavily regulated industry, and it is amazing to me how much the process varies based on the skill of the regulators. Smart ones who know there stuff? Everything is crystal clear, shit gets done, and everyone…

She was 40 years old, which would make her in her thirties when gardisil was approved, and it wasn’t recommended for women over a certain age. I can’t remember what that was, but it was less than my age, and I'm now 38.

I think Cosby’s breathtaking hypocrisy also contributes to the outrage, along with the likelihood that some of the women in small roles were probably among those he attacked. Throw in that his behavior was apparently an open secret for years, it makes me really uncomfortable watching his show. I do feel for the others…

I work in a conservative, gun-happy corporation. A safety speaker who came in to talk about home security spent the majority of the hour talking about guns are not a wise defense strategy. His reasoning was that guns are just too damn efficient. If you want a weapon, pepper spray will def. hurt someone, but won't kill…
