I have nothing else today with this.
Cancer at 29! Woo, cancer lottery. I had JUST finished paying off substantial credit card debt and was saving up to buy a motorcycle when I was diagnosed with an extremely rare cancer. It took 3 weeks in the hospital to get diagnosed and cost well over $10k on top of my (reasonably good) health insurance. When I later…
you’re really on jez, saying that a female candidate who is quantifiably winning in EVERY way should take a back seat to a dude. purely because people have generally positive views about him despite his being unable to explain his core platform coherently, and mostly because clinton has been pretty goddamn respectful…
Supporters of Clinton can be similarly single-minded.
when the hell is her campaign finally going to muzzle him??? there is nothing he can say that will help her, and a lot he can say that will hurt her.
This is obviously horrible trolling but I’ll bite. When women leave the workforce, it’s not because they’d just LOVE to stay at home. It’s because by and large they make less than their spouses. Because women get paid less and have fewer advancement opportunities. Because of bullshit like this. Ultimately you’re just…
You’ve tragically stumbled into a long series of comments about how you, a stupid woman, could never understand that the pay gap in certain industries is just because women are DUMB and not because of their gender. Good luck with that; there is no amount of proof that will convince overpaid men that they don’t deserve…
I’ve been noticing that Flickr has been slow as hell for me for the last month or two. As a result, I began suspecting that Yahoo might be throttling their service to try to get people to leave it and did some research. There’s some rumblings on the internet (on WSJ, behind a paywall) that Yahoo definitively announced…
If you have Amazon prime you can use their photo storage service, which is unlimited.
I’ve done Arches in March and would add the caveat that the hike to Delicate Arch still has ice past the time much of the rest of the park has melted. I’d recommend people be prepared with crampons or the understanding that you might not be able to make it to every place in the park. Shoulder seasons always have some…
“[flexible|unlimited|no] vacation policy” - you only get to take time off when it’s convenient for us, which is likely to be never. also we won’t pay you out accrued vacation time when you leave, because you don’t have any!
I don’t really care what happens to my body although I’ve always leaned towards cremation.
I was going to write a long-winded rant about being a woman in IT but, frankly, it’s exhausting even considering fighting the good fight at the moment. So, just one point:
I MIGHT BE YOU. i also squealed about the stegosaurus!
I, too, have had this conversation with my husband. 3 years of pining over it has led me to say “fuck it”
screw it, just buying myself this for christmas and calling it a day.
I have “assigned” this doc to my husband as “relationship homework.” Thanks for posting it.
my gut feeling was actually you should NEVER tell your kid this, but i’ve softened my stance a little bit upon reflection.
