oh jesus. Paul Hollywood, ever the annoying fourth wheel. I shall miss Mel and Sue. Although guys, I just watched season 4. How the fuck did Kimberly not win? How the fuck did Francis win after a whole season of “style over substance” comments from the judges?

I’m glad to hear you’ve grown some new roots. Positive change begets positive change and all that.

Some advice from someone who IS a stepmom (and tries to avoid ever saying anything mean about the ex even though she’s a narcissistictic, abusive alcoholic), don’t be deliberately unkind but that does not mean you have to be a doormat. I try to extend the courtesy of “I’m sorry it’s going that way for you” to many…

As someone who actually has a toxic (abusive, cruel to animals, hoarding, delusional) MIL, this thread was really frustrating to read. I WISH my worst complaint about my partner’s mother was she wants to take me to department stores and compliments me too much. That would definitely beat stealing my sanitary pads and…

Of course there are situations where parents are abusive, addicted, etc. and deserve to be cut off. But when they are simply annoying, I personally believe that putting in the work to get what positives you can out of the relationship is the better course than simple avoidance.

My MIL is insufferable. (This is an opinion shared by her children) There is nothing I or anyone else can do to tame her worst tendencies. Being stoned or drunk is helpful.

Well not really, plain old soap isn’t going to kill e-coli, toilet paper definately won’t, and there’s no way in hell I’m bleaching my vagina. Motion and sweat will cause bacteria to move around in both genders, and even the cleanest woman in the world can’t escape the fact that the vagina and the anus are only…

HOLY. SHIT.

Haha OMG

I initially saw the “Casey” and the picture of Rooney and immediately thought: ...Casey Anthony biopic?

I guess I stopped watching at the end of the last season because I decided there was enough violence and dread and gore in the real world (especially politics) that I no longer feel the need to watch it on tv. When everything was great under Obama, watching Walking Dead made sense but now . . . no thanks. I’ll go…

I find Kristen Bell sharp, adorable, and great as an actress.

Rhetorical question, but: why are businesspeoplewho market themselves as edgy, hip people (and among those are women who brand themselves as feminists and use that as a marketing ploy) also fucking crazy? Grabbing your subordinate’s breast? The fuck is this shit?

You simply cannot be a Conservative and be pro-choice. She cracked. I doubt there are other Conservative pro-choicers. She’s more liberal than she wants us to believe. She thought it was safe and edgy to take ANY liberal position for once, and still be respected by Conservatives. “Ooh Tomi is a modern Conservative. So…

She stepped out of a line and all her bros went, “I don’t know her.”

The layer of oil on top is the worst. Until you get to the layer of dry peanut chalk at the bottom, then that’s the worst.

When I was a young gothy clubby person I’d buy the cheap crotchless fishnets. Upsidedown and cut off the feet they made a cute shrug over/under a tank top. Usually $2-3 and the stretchy waist was adjustable in a way.

I’m really glad I clicked that Rihanna video because it. was. so. glorious. God, that dress probably feels really fun to swoosh around in, too.

also d-mannose supplements - they seem to be ONE piece of woo-woo* that work and are supported with actual biochemistry.

*this is not carte blanche for other woo

thats because racism has not only been legitimized, its been deemed patriotism.
