I’m 34 and was dumped by a 45 year old for a 21 year old last year. I’ve been on dates with six different dudes, ages 38-57, in the last seven months who told me either on the date or in a follow up that they just really need someone under 30. Against my better judgment, I saw a 48 year old a few time who told me…

Guys in their 40s are pretty bad too. Especially the ones dating 21 year-olds.

A person can not be prevented from being their own lawyer, and the defense has the absolute right to cross examine the accuser. Hence the quagmire.

Scalia wrote the Crawford majority, so he is responsible for the controlling law, not Rehnquist’s concurrence. Scalia was also joined by every single other justice in the judgment, so you’d have to kill at least 5 judges.

It was Scalia’s majority opinion that brought the Confrontation Clause back. Rehnquist concurred, but would have decided the case on Roberts “indicia of reliability” grounds.

My son is a member of the Swag Bros. They have a stick they give to the person with the most swag. It’s the Swag Stick. Sometimes they “bro out.”

Sometimes the name is leftover! We’re the Sexxxy Bitches: A Tits-Forward Organization.

Or maybe if you’re all 40, you just don’t name your friend group and call it a day.

You know that Charles Manson never actually killed anybody, right? And he’s clearly mentally ill. Are you arguing for him to be released and put into therapy until he “gets better?”

Hey, we’re all flawed, but it’s possible to be both “a flawed human being” and “a fucking asshole.”

Generally, the legal standard is the ability, in the moment of the act, to determine whether what you were doing was right or wrong. Based on the evidence here, she almost certainly had that capacity, though obviously the defense will attempt to show otherwise. But with text messages in the record, she’s left a trail…

As far as mental conditions go, if she has one all signs point to ASPD. Generally, people with ASPD are pretty much untreatable. Some treatments *may* help, but likely they will not. If that is the case, she should be institutionalized for the rest of her life as a danger to society. Criminally insane and whatnot.…

I think pressure to forgive is a bad thing, and I do think there’s pressure to forgive, no matter how terrible the crime is. That being said, there are some people who find that forgiveness makes it easier for them to move on.

Thank you. Yes, I’ll just wait here while every other famous female singer trots out their secret female producers so that we can all see what a shitty person Taylor Swift is because it’s Taylor Swifts fault the music scene is a sausage fest. Give me a break. I am by no means a fan but come the fuck on. She stands up…

I think these bloggers think they’d lose their (non existent) street cred if they defended Taylor. I mean, even the headline is veiled. Taylor didn’t merely respond to Kanye, she called him out, and did it with class. Somehow still, we need to point out she’s annoying. And the “yeah but she has male producers so I…

Exactly what I was thinking. Personal feelings about TSwift aside, how is a woman asserting herself and taking (deserved) credit for her own accomplishments something to mock or deem “insufferable”?

I have a hard time on a feminist blog finding a way to be anything but Team Taylor on this one. She may have an incredibly planned public persona and is annoyingly twee (can we PLEASE retire #squadgoals forever ??), but Kanye is the literal worst.

@grumpygirl: Is it really so surprising? I am amazed by the people who have been shocked by shockingly red bush. Even my eyelashes are red...what did they expect....a black bush?

@grumpygirl: I have a full bush and usually do. The most I do is trim it down a bit for fun now and then., but I haven't even done that for a year or more. I think it is cute and I'm lazy so the bush stays. We can't be the only ones.

am i actually the only woman in america who has her own public hair? i feel like shaving has become the norm and that's not a place i'm going. how did this happen so fast?
