You know what would have been "inspiring?" Seeing her photo as she crosses the finish line of a marathon (or half, I'm not picky) or her face as she finished 60 laps in the pool. A photo of her in briefs and a bra doesn't inspire me. It makes me sad that a woman can be a mom to three kids and still only see her…

I have seen the future, and it is full of more bullshit.

I still grumble about Gwen Stefani fucking up subjective mood in that "If I was a rich girl.. nanananananana" song. Were! Were!

Right? Everyone called me crazy when I shrieked that, for the love of god, it's "Someone who I used know." (not "someone that..")

Nah, just collective ignorance. They don't really teach us the grammars real good.

That choral performance made my day a little less shitty.

Penis.

And this is why you should not be allowed to opt your children out of vaccinations. You opt out, they don't go to school. No vaccinations? No signing up for park district classes. No swim classes. Quarantine them us much as possible.

Parents who refuse to vaccinate their children are the worst of the worst. They're selfish assholes who don't give a fuck that actual children might die because their little snowflake is "too special" for regular vaccines. I honestly think that children who aren't vaccinated (by choice) legally shouldn't allowed out…

I can see where you're coming from, and I certainly think it's very kind to give a gift. I give gifts. But I've also been in a position where I have barely had enought to eat, and making something wasn't feasible either. I had nothing to spare. Yet I still wanted to see my friends and my family get married, support…

"vaguely traumatic"? The hell, Doug Barry?

Oh, sweet baby Jesus, thank you, Dodai! Every time I express some hesitancy at being cool with this I'm accused of being a prude. I am in shock at how raunchy things have gotten. And S&M is perfectly fine in your own bedroom, but do I have to be accosted by it every time I partake in some form of media? I can't…

Good, good... the public grows weary of all these little, naked pop stars and redirects its attention to the entertainer we OUGHT to be seeing everywhere:

I had a conversation with my local indie bookseller about those. She said, "This crap isn't *daring*. Sleeping with a stranger on a train, *that's* daring." I <3 my bookstore.

The thing is - it does not matter what she says about it. She has chosen to spend her life with and directly benefit from someone who is actively working to harm women. These political wives are not innocent bystanders. Their silence and/or acquiescence is their opinion and their action. So she made a comment - big…

It's not so much that the Republicans don't want to extend health insurance, it's because OBAMA did it. They hate him so much that from day one they have vowed to oppose everything he does. The healthcare law has been one of the centerpieces of his presidency, and they have crossed their arms about it from the…

The Southern Poverty Law Center needs to officially categorize the Republican Party as a terrorist organization and hate group. This shit's ridiculous.

How trying it must be to exist in a world where the opposite gender constantly makes itself the center of attention and power. I can't imagine.

"If the gays do not agree, they can always eat pasta from another manufacturer."

No, we do the sad opposite: we watch these shows and internalize the message: "what cute clothes! Why can't I ever find clothes that look that cute? It's because I suck/am fat/am ugly/am terrible at shopping/can't dress myself!" Or at least, I do.
