Yep, that’s what 92 years of internalized misogyny will do to a person. She’s even mastered the art of the sexcrime doublethink. “Women don’t ask for it, but they’re asking for it.”

We have those on all the bike trails around here and while yeah, it’s an indicator of what the area is like (winter muggings on the bike trail are HIGH), I’m glad they exist.

I had 2 favorite schools for college and was accepted to both. All factors were mostly equal. The deciding factor ended up being when I visited the rejected’s campus. After the tour, I started talking with some of the girls in a studio class and they told me stories about sexual assaults around the campus. Not from…

Fuck Paarl. He’s probably the boss that took me the longest and was the least fun to get through. Him and the Amygdala in the nightmare. But Kos and the One Reborn were almost shockingly easy for me after hearing my friends complain about them. There’s so much variation between people as to what’s hard and what’s easy.

abandon efforts to systematically reform police departments.

There’s a pink one that does that too.

It’s depressed investment in building and expanding broadband networks and deterred innovation.

When I was a kid, my parents bought a home in the middle of the woods, which I loved. I was a real dig-in-dirt-hike-for-hours kind of kid, so this was perfect. When was 14 or so, I was going to a Magic tournament with friends. We were running late, so I jammed on my Docs and out the door I went. Slowly, throughout the…

Read this headline as David Attenborough. “A group of male executives is milling around the fallen Weinstein Co. But, what’s this? In the underbrush, a surprise woman has found the kill.”

Close. Melcher had moved. The house was a rental and Polanski/Tate were the then current occupants, Melcher had moved out earlier that year. Polanski was in England filming at the time and due to return the day after the murders.

I roast parsnips and add them to celery root soup to add some depth to the flavor. Leak, garlic, celery root, parsnips, and ancho chili.

I use the VIB sale to prop up the things I have to buy anyway and then throw in a thing I’ve wanted to try. So in addition to the finicky skin makeups, I got the Urban Decay Smoky Naked palette and Anastasia brow pomade in dark brown.

I’m going to my parents for Thanksgiving, where my mother usually does a whole multi-course meal. But I usually manage to sneak in a dish so she’s not on her feet the whole day. This year, I’m making soup with buttercup and butternut squashes with paprika and garlic. Although if she chases me away from the soup (she…

Replying to include that the new Jetta is also black, and that in the 80s it was originally intended for her to be a black character to make the Misfits more diverse. The executives had a panic attack about have a black “villain” and said the acceptable alternatives were to make here either British or Australian, but…

This is what happens when you’re in an unregulated/poorly regulated industry where the “employee” is made to pay fees for the privilege of working and is given no security. Look at any industry where the labor is primarily independent contractors. You see people with worse health, since it’s more difficult to get…

I’ve always wanted to believe the best about Franken. He’s a very good senator. But I’ve known this shit was entirely likely given the SNL clips/interviews I’ve seen, and what I know about comedy/entertainment. I’ve hoped he wouldn’t be one of the ones who crossed the line from making shitty, sexist jokes to being a…

I’m really in Ann Leckie, even though I’m not sure how I feel about her newest book yet. But her first three novels involved tea in space as major plot elements so it was kind of tailor made for me.

So what books by women are people reading right now?

In the photo heading this very article you’ll see that they say in big letter “PLAN YOUR PARENTHOOD.” This is located across the street from an actual Planned Parenthood facility, and uses such language because the PP in inside a larger building with no exterior signage. This is, flat out, to trick the public. That’s…
