Thank you for writing this- it’s very very necessary and hugely stressful in a partnership (and makes the woman feel like your mother which no one wants)

I agree that she is terribly underappreciated. Have you seen Melancholia?

Some of the tests are extremely misleading. A quick google search will turn up various articles that will tell you about how identical triplets and quadruplets can get different results, sometimes wildly, from such tests. The error level can go so high as to attribute african DNA to one of the group but not any of the…

Whoever Hillary picked as AG would have been better than Sessions. Small steps forward is better than giant leaps backward.

Funny, I just posted elsewhere about Colin Trevorrow. With one unknown short and one unknown documentary under his belt, he directed his first feature Safety Not Guaranteed, which grossed $4.4 million. Next, he’s given Jurassic World, and by now he’s on to Star Wars IX.

“Are you really willing just to go down a tier to a man who’s just kind of mediocre but can still do the job instead of reaching across and getting the talented woman?”

Or Russian equivalents. Dear god, the utter failure to understand the most basic facts about what “classified” means is hurting my head.

Why WHY do the same people who scream about Hillary’s emails not realize this is 100x worse in every way?

I 100% believe this to be true. Case in point: my mother who until recently thought that being on gchat meant people could ACTUALLY SEE HER. Not to be ageist, but the people in our society who don’t understand how computers work tend to be the same age group who overwhelmingly voted for trump based on shit they saw on…

The answer here is that they don’t know what an email server is and it sounds complicated and dangerous. Seriously. This is the answer. Somehow classified info on a fancy newfangled computer machinery is more dangerous than TELLING SOMEONE WITH YOUR MOUTH CLASSIFIED INFORMATION.

Why WHY do the same people who scream about Hillary’s emails not realize this is 100x worse in every way? How can they believe that one is horrible, terrible, unforgivable, OH SO BAD, but this? This is fine. Not real. Fake news.

It’s OK, you guys. The WaPo comment section assures me that this is FAKE NEWS.

I’ve been denied bereavement days following the death of murdered partner. Many current and pre-DOMA Overturn marriage equality and family law issues apply to polyamorous families. Nonmonogamists cannot serve openly in the armed forces.

Please imagine you’d made these same statements about same sex or interracial couplings. It’s microagressive whether you intend it or not.

Honestly, I point out to most single people whom I know that they live polyamorously or ‘open.’

Maybe when I was 16, that seemed like something novel. Now?

A girl who was seemingly conceived, incubated, hatched, trained, conditioned and indoctrinated to be an object of sexual desire as the sole purpose of her existence and her only contribution to society is saying that she doesn’t get to be objectified enough? Do I have the right read on this one?

The Penguins still have some tricks up their sleeves

Actually, that notice sounds perfect. It doesn’t say “forbid the show” it doesn’t say “this show is bad”, it says “here is what this show is about, here are talking points suggested by experts that will help you talk to your teenager about it, here are resources if it seems to trigger depression or suicidal ideation…

I’m nonbinary and have gender dysphoria related to my period, so yeah, it bothers me. I can grit my teeth and ignore it most of the time, but I’m 25 and have only been tracking my period consistently for the last year because I’ve wanted to avoid thinking about it as much as possible.
