This week, I found out that I've been awarded a PhD fellowship at NYU. I'm thrilled, but also consumed with the belief that I don't deserve it or that they'll rescind the offer in a few days. Damn you, childhood trauma!

"And the Supremacy Clause of the U.S. Constitution says federal law supercedes state law, no matter how much you hate gays." > So how does this work with marijuana in Washington and Colorado? Aren't those states also ignoring federal law? Or is the difference that marijuana legality in those places was voted on?

Judith Light tearing up in the background got me a lil choked up.

Amy's cleavage in that dress.... damn....

First, she and her partner get arrested at a peaceful Eric Garner protest, and now she comes out as a rape survivor activist? Go, Randi!

Bring back Popples!!!

Thank you.

Thank you for this. Truly. You just proved why the internet exists.

Thanks for the RAINN recommendation. Last night was tough.

He sold me to his best friend. His bf did the raping.

I live in a studio in Manhattan (down-sized last year from a one br) and I LOVE it! I've lived alone for 13 years (well, with my cat). Like you, I'm an introvert, and there is nothing I enjoy more than what I'm doing tonight: cup of tea, rocking chair, solitude, and quiet. Once or twice a week, I schedule dinner with…

My estranged father just sent me a picture of my 6 y/o niece standing next to a deer carcass in the room where I was raped the first time. Virtual hugs, please?

I had pb cups for dinner. No judgement here.

How does a gal get out of the grey? Being permanently grey makes participating in conversations difficult and discouraging.

How do I get out of gray?!

Yes! Wanna organize this with me?!

Why is this any different from the other places in the neighborhood exactly like it? I live on the UWS, and I like that it's always crowded and lively because it makes me feel safer when I walk home late at night.

It looks like Alan Cumming.

Why spend millions of dollars to live in Midtown?

Who's served jury duty in NYC? I have to report tomorrow. Is it as bad as I think it will be?
