I work in the MN Planned Parenthood affiliate, and I guess I can’t say I know about any other affiliates, but I know that ours will often organize “counterprotests” whenever they find out about these big protest groups coming through. They make it into a big festival like with bands and stuff. Maybe your local…

Born and raised GR girl here- you are absolutely right! I remember when the slippers we’re stolen, and the situation was fishy as hell...

I would like to imagine that this is what strip clubs would be like in the wonderful wizarding world of Harry Potter.

I am a curly-headed white girl, and while I by no means can say that I have suffered the same prejudices as POC, I can empathize a bit with the textured-hair stigma. I remember being in high school trying to figure out what I wanted to do with my life and having (teenage hormone-infused) discussion with my mom about…

I was baby sitting my cousin's 3 & 4 year old boys this summer and I was making pancakes for breakfast. While I was at the stove, I hear "Curls, look at Frankie's hat!" and turn around to see the 3 year old with a butter-and-syrup-soaked pancake on his head. I wiped his head off with a damp rag and sent them outside…

Forget frolicking, my dog likes to fly in the snow.

During my very first pap, the doctor commented on "what good muscle control" I had. I was like 17 and didn't really realize how strange a comment it was until later.

My front six teeth are veneers- my real teeth were too small for the size of my jaw, so after my high school braces, they put pretty much straight veneers across the front. But! They look like real teeth! Unless this guy got his like 25 years ago (which is possible, I guess?), they don't make them look that bad! Any…

This is quite beautiful. Thank you for introducing this into my life.

Pretty sure from my intermediate genetics course that we all (guys especially) actually get slightly more than 50% of our DNA from our moms (due to slightly more DNA on the X chromosome than the Y and mitochondrial DNA, which we get from our moms). So yeah. Also, unless this guy is shooting all Y's, at least half of…

Semi-unrelated, but pertaining to shoes. My roommate and I decided tonight that there is a fashion niche that needs to be filled in the form of flask shoes. As in shoes that double as flasks. Like heels or wedges that can stealthily hold a few shots of vodka (or tequila, what have you)? Is this something that people…

Does Wills wear this shirt and sweater combo at like every event, because I swear I have seen this before.

My aunt lives in a fairly upper-middle class suburb of Minneapolis, and when she moved into her row house probably 10 years ago now, she hired a guy whose business was "Rent-A-Husband" to come to her place and help her do things like hang ceiling fans and light fixtures and install her kitchen appliances. He drove…

I know! He just couldn't believe it that he was literally the only source of information about what was happening inside the capital building for a fairly large portion of the night after midnight. And I actually thought he conducted himself fairly well during the interviews he did as well, regardless of showing his…

I am SO PROUD of the women who stood up against this bill, sending the Senator their stories, protesting at the capital, sharing what was happening via social networking, not to mention the awesome lady politicians who made it possible to delay this bill.

I also have a job interview tomorrow, although mine is with Planned Parenthood, so I think staying up late to watch this could actually help me, maybe?! I'm going to keep telling myself that anyway.

Reading this actually made me physically ill. I am absolutely disgusted with people.

When my parents got married, their golden retriever was one of literally 5 guests, excluding the pastor. Seriously, it was the pastor, them, each set of parents, and the dog. In the yard of the house that they have lived in my entire life. Here is a picture of a picture from their wedding (Sorry it's so blurry and out…
