I bought a mermaid blanket for this exact reason and it is the perfect solution. There’s a hole at the bottom and the fin part hangs over your feet and is generally not intrusive. I got the Laghcat brand one from Amazon and they’re inexpensive and good quality. I am not paid to shill mermaid blankets or anything, I…

I am the adult owner of a mermaid blanket and I LOVE IT. I got one for each of my best friends for Christmas because they were jealous of mine. For me it’s perfect because it covers my feet and doesn’t slide off my legs since I spend most of my relaxing time with my feet propped up on the coffee table. And it is cozy…

Holy shitsnacks. The liar liar literally caught his pants on fire.

The strategic thing would be to release this just days before the election, right? Make sure he’s nice and disgraced but too late for the GOP to change the name at the top of the ticket? At this point I’m worrying Mike “Garbage Person That Looks Good By Comparison” Pence will slip into the presidency last minute.

I’m with you. I’m a natural planner and get bored laying around. My least favorite trips involve no planning and spending the whole time trying to figure out what to do and how to get around on the spot. But I also overcorrect by planning too much. My husband and I are taking our first big vacation to the Caribbean…

Nailed it

Replying because I am curious too - I have never delved into reddit and honestly don’t know where to start if that’s where everyone flocks to.

Well it does imply that the problem is with individuals. It seems like the real problem stems from the idea we’re sold that by a certain time in your life you’ll be a “real adult” by having your “shit together” but what I’m gathering is that really you just gradually get better at dealing with the fact that shit will…

I legit know a woman who works for a “life coaching” institution that sells this info for thousands of dollars and I’ve over here like “who pays for this? just go out in the world and be a person for free”.

My husband and I NOPE’d right out of parent/child dances. We swayed vigorously to Al Green’s Let’s Stay Together for about a minute (husband’s idea - “hey what about that one song from Parks and Rec?”) and skipped right to getting everyone on the dance floor to Queen’s Don’t Stop Me Now.

Hey, I know this post is nearly a week old but I wanted to chime in and hopefully be helpful. I got married last year, my husband and I are nerds, with him being much more reserved than I am. We held our entire wedding, ceremony and reception, at a small hotel and rented a room for the night there so we only had to…

It’s missing the header, but I’m pretty sure the Internet Archive is #1, from the context.

I’ll watch if Chad live-tweets it.

The Slot was practically neutral compared to Gawker itself.

I gasped out loud. I am thirsty AF for peen on this show.

Ugh I know, which is why I’m surprised it isn’t A Thing yet. I also know it would become another thing to be judgey about (oh those women had a friend ceremony and they’ve only known each other for a year! le gasp!) but I like the /idea/ even if the execution would be a hot mess.

Yessss I feel you! I finally accepted, after years of being with my now-husband, that he definitely knows me well enough and has been through enough to count as a “best friend” but it will never compare to the relationship I have with my girlfriends. And you’re right, it shouldn’t have to compare, I appreciate both…

I am so sorry that happened to you and I know I would be absolutely heartbroken if either of my best friends did something similar to me. We definitely went through some rough patches when we all went to college in different states, but emerged stronger for it and are now all paired off with significant others and…

For me, personally, the push-back and performative aspect comes from seeing so many social media posts from women gushing about their significant others being their ~best friends~ like a relationship trump card. I’m happily married and have an amazing friendship with my spouse, but I also have two women that I call my…

...even filling out the form or sending a government the letter declaring their objections to covering birth control was a burden on their faith, because it set in motion the process by which their employees received the coverage from their insurers...
