1 Peter 3:3 is often translated/interpreted to explicitly forbid elaborate braids (among other external adornments) in Christian women as it’s a sign of wealth/vanity. And as a woman with waist-length hair who worked in agriculture for years...there are way easier and more practical hairstyles than that kind of…

I want another woman justice

It was Alito trying painfully to be Scalia and Kagan shut that shit down immediately. It was beautiful.

Crying and clapping!

Or maybe if you’re all 40, you just don’t name your friend group and call it a day.

She was practically a prostitute!

Poor, poor rapist/athlete. :-(

I teach elementary school students. Here’s how I handle it-

If your fingers are getting pruney, it’s time to give up.

I impulse-bought a box of discounted See’s Candy, leftover from Valentine’s Day, and absent-mindedly set it on my bed when I got home and went about my business. I just looked up and had a moment of self-awareness: I’m sitting on my bed, hunched over my laptop, surrounded by cats and a heart-shaped box of chocolate I…

I like volunteering. Only really kind people volunteer. I met my dearest friends volunteering to clean a park.
