Definitely. It’s a huge coincidence that it was discovered in Lyme Connecticut and that’s where it has the most cases. Connecticut isn’t that unique. Much more like they are more aware of the issue there.

I actually like hearing about people’s style because to me that is the point of a red carpet. Trying to have deep and in-depth conversations with an actor who is entering an awards show/event with 1,000s of other people in one small area makes little sense to me.

This is a whole generation of kids who have lead poisoning and are going to suffer from it for the rest of their lives. My god, the education and medical interventions are going to be massive.

THIS VIDEO CHANGED MY LIFE

I just read that Miley is hoping for a hookup with Kristen.

Fuck that. If he donates the money, keep it. Use it for something worthwhile, but don’t give that shit back.

At least Disney princesses have *noses.*

We almost bought this (maybe this? A frozen thing like this, at any rate) for husband’s niece, but it was just too creepy. I blame Bratz.

Off-topic, Hillary, but can you promise me that Jezebel’s content will never get so bad that they have to resort to front-paging a serial troll’s thread for clicks like they’ve done on Gawker? Christ, that place has been a sinking ship for months now; will someone be merciful and put them out of their misery?

I am not sure I can look entirely past his age here. It’s fully possible that he’s been groomed and used by two adults to act as a lure on their behalf, whether he realizes that or not.

well, not to be the downer on a downer — but this kid also sounds sexually exploited. (ref 15 yr old)

I’ve been in that scenario—I hooked up with a guy friend while completely blacked out and didn’t remember it at all. He remembered and told me what happened in the morning. While by technical definition it could definitely be considered non-consensual, I just didn’t feel that way about the situation and moved on from…

On the plus side, of all the officers charged this is one of the more difficult cases to prove (along with Sgt White). Not to say I don’t personally think he should be convincted but it’s not as direct as some of the others as his involvement was after the actual assaults occurred. Not calling for medical help is…

Huh. I haven’t had that problem, but I only wash my hair every 4-5 days, so maybe that has something to do with it? I also use a leave-in conditioner/detangler when I do wash my hair, so I think that helps. I think you’re onto something with the Shea, though, because I use this Allafia brand and it’s awesome. What…

You sound like my flavor of white lady: slightly weird and less than conventional. When I say boring white woman, I mean my mom’s super narrow-minded, conformist, judgmental Midwestern relatives. Judgy racist hypocritical bitches. And they have bad hair and skin, to boot. If you’re going to ask someone how they get…

IF it works for you, my hair can’t handle the pH change and starts breaking within a few days of usage! Meanwhile my hair loves this stupid Wen crap but my skin doesn't tolerate it well.

Agreed, my hair is curly and dry and my hair looks best with co-washing. I think we’ve been trained to think that not using shampoo is gross.

I say this to everyone. It’s the curly girl no-’poo system made palatable for boring white women who think not stripping your scalp with shampoo every day is the same thing as being a dirty diseased garbage person.

Same. I want to know more about the verdict.
