@swedishfishing: OH BOO I fail today. Just go here to see the picture, they're neat: [1.bp.blogspot.com]

@swedishfishing:

I hope that worked...

@SomeAuthorGirl: Ah CUTE. Little laptop? Training her to be a future Jezzie, right?

@greengrey: Ugh, I'm sure you're right. If they can pick on Michelle for having ARMS, they can do anything. *sigh* I was so close to being optimistic today, too!

@Eriu: Hm that's interesting. I'm in the middle of Julia Serano's Whipping Girl and she makes a point to discuss how gender and sex (she uses them fairly interchangeably) are more biologically rooted than people tend to think. She uses the term "sex assigned at birth" to talk about what this article identifies as…

@Sookie Stackhouse: I hate to say it, but I'm glad that the Obama girls are really cute for this very reason. They're currently stereotypically very adorable little girls and I really really hope that they don't go through any "awkward" stage like Chelsea did, because people were vicious. I mean, teenagers who never…

Holy shit. The cult of personality is kind of crazy, you know? Genius only goes so far. I guess it's neat though.

@brinkswomanship: @sumerfish: @parafilm: Alright, so I just did a bit of research, and although it seems like it might be a reasonable scientific reason to set the age limit at 17, it's actually just a politic reason. In 2003, FDA advisory committees determined that Plan B was safe enough to sell OTC without age…

@brinkswomanship: This is a good point. I'm curious about this as well. I'm going to see if I can figure out if there are scientific reasons for the age restrictions (or if they're just political) and respond again.

@afiunderground: I'm not sure I feel comfortable calling plastic leggings pants. But I see your point. I often wonder how she gets her clothing on. It looks really fussy most of the time, doesn't it?

So, I'm digging the suspenders. Anyone else? I swear I'm not a hipster.

@Megan: Yep, and this is because it has different ingredients. While Yasmin and Yaz, for example, have estrogen and progestin, Plan B only has progestin. Estrogen increases blood clotting activity, while progestin does not, so progestin-only pills taken occasionally, like Plan B, are safe to sell OTC. It's definitely…

@dirtybee got accepted to grad school! Hook Em!: oo that's no fun. If you go to planned parenthood, you can get the pill without an exam. It's called a h.o.p.e. appointment or something, I think. It's just a meeting where you talk to someone and you leave with a prescription. Super, super easy.

@baraqiel: Yeah, I REALLY don't feel bad laughing, too. Heywood is calling his/her trans woman friend a he. MAJOR FAIL. Makes it pretty obvious she/he has never met a trans woman before—if this "LeMal" was really a friend, wouldn't it be pretty clear that, as a trans woman, she should be referred to with feminine…

OMG is anyone else cracking up right now? This is the funniest thread I've read in a long time. I especially like the commenter with the "religious background." AHH. Thank you, all. Sorry you got dragged into this strongdragonmtf, if you're a real commenter.

@R-Star: Yeah, you're right. It's way better to give them a crown based on how they look in a bathing suit. Pretty women don't have thoughts! How silly of me to think so.

@Robert Benchley: You're so original, criticizing the appearance of a "conventionally unattractive" woman. I've never heard something quite like it! Have you thought about doing stand-up? No one has ever made jokes about "ugly" people before, I'm sure, so you must be onto something.

@Robert Benchley: Uhhh, WTF? We disemvowel that shit because it isn't funny. It's kinda gross. You can act like a jerk about a woman's appearance pretty much everywhere else on the internet, but we don't like it here.

I wonder how much coffee she needs in the morning to work up the energy to put on that kind of clothing. Those boots must take forever to lace up. I need another adderall just contemplating the task.
