Counter-point: Not only is sex-scheduling incredibly helpful for busy/overwhelmed couples to ensure intimacy remains a core tenet of their relationship, it can also be handcuffed to an innovative credit card rewards-style program to incentivize menial chores that we all seem to avoid!

Honestly, I’m not sure that it is gaining power. I realize this may be a hot take interpretation of the data, but it’s entirely possible that this baloney just looks like it’s gaining power because the small band of crazies is really scared, and really energized, about how their world is disappearing.

Well, the thing is, you aren’t alone. In this particular pain, you have a shared experience with countless others (myself included).

Carl Sagan likened nuclear proliferation to two enemies together in a gasoline-soaked room. One person has five matches, and the other has three.

I feel like I’m taking crazy pills: Chyna explicitly said in her texts that she intended to physically assault Rob, and then according to all reports, physically assaulted him. Why are people joking and saying it’s petty and judgy that his family wants him to break up with the woman who is physically abusing him? Why…

Moon was a fantastic movie

That Olivia Wilde link for some reason redirects to a poll about Kevin Federline and it’s driving me crazy. I just want to see her haircut!

Yeah-I’ve never been pregnant but am trying to decide if I want to go down that road and people are so weird and moralistic about everything having to do with pregnancy that I feel pretty put off, including about morning sickness-related stuff. A former friend, who was my friend for 30 years until she became a total…

This is really important. Sample size, design of the study, control for comorbidities, longitudinal follow up are all really important.

Congrats! You are officially a responsible adult woman. :D

Because it is a tragedy so inhumane, it is unquantifiable and and can’t be categorized. It brings on complex emotions and thought processes go completely out of whack. Thus the void where this can spread.

Two things in this article reminded me that I have the heart of a middle-aged person, even though I’m just 27.

I hate to be “that person” but as a Biologist I think this normally rare event could become more common with monoculture tree plantings. Monoculture stands such as pine, Christmas trees, often for profit but sometimes touted as “eco-friendly” have almost no diversity and therefore no variety of roots to stabilize or…

Fun fact: You can bring your own alcohol with you on the plane. So instead of paying “I’m at a bar and actually enjoying myself” prices for that splash of grocery store wine, pick up a few mini bottles before you fly.

This is how I feel about Indianapolis. It is an amazing city, I lived there for 10 years, and it keeps getting better. The only problem is that the rest of Indiana is a meth-cooking hellhole with terrible politics.

I didn’t know I Love Lucy came first. I always assumed the Honeymooners were first because it always appeared to me that the recording medium of the Honeymooners was much crappier quality than Lucy.

Its even worse than that. Note “households”. The average american household is 2.54 people. That works out to $87 per human being.

The money, and their amassed wealth, doesn’t really concern me. I have no problem with other people being filthy rich, or with wealthy people dominating government. It’s how it’s always been, so I’m used to it by now. However, I do take issue with the industry these people represent, in the main. I’m tired of living…

I am also very short, and am here to say that tall people aren’t the only ones airplane seats were not designed for. That fucking pillow...headrest...whatever you call it is positioned in exactly the right spot behind my head so as to force it forward at like a 45-degree angle.. It is SO uncomfortable. I push it up,…
