You guys, I literally think I have a problem.
I am both intrigued and horrified.
I think I'll start stocking up on butter.
Well, firstly, LYSISTRATA.
I sometimes feel like women won't be taken seriously as actual human beings until we start getting really violent and nasty. In the short-term, we'll be seen as "unstable bitches." But if we start inflicting the kind of terror on these men that they inflict on us, maybe they'll start seeing us equals. Ladies, let's…
US in a nutshell: My boss controls my uterus. My state controls who I marry. My government controls none of the guns.
How is this decision anything but blatant pandering to Christianity? Who the fuck do you turn to when the supreme fucking court shits out a decision this awful? Is it time for us to grab torches and pitchforks and go after these assholes?
If it helps, you can visit my happy place which is a picnic in a meadow with Tom Hiddleston. I'm there right now and it's the only thing keeping me from running around screaming my head off about the bullshit decision. Just goes to prove yet again that women are second class citizens. Because if it were about men…
Well, I guess I'll just buy my vagina a gun and let it stand its ground.

So she's asking if the candy was made…
In 2012, I had a late term abortion in Texas. I was 21 weeks. I found out I was pregnant at 20 weeks. I was still nursing my two-year-old and hadn't had a period since before he was conceived. I had just split with his father a few months before and it was a domestic violence situation. Immediately after we split, I'd…
Your thoughts are my thoughts. My boyfriend brought me a burger when I was super drunk on a Carnival Cruise this spring, and when I woke up the next morning I was like, we have to go get another one of those, that was the best burger I've ever had. And then he said it was from the Guy Fieri stand, and I had a 30…
They could have just called this "The Week Before My Period."
I honestly didn't realize—until I did this experiment—that I'd lost something significant: the ability to just eat food, without qualifying every choice, and without treating every meal as an opportunity to "fix" myself.
