I really really try to stand by the principle of attacking a belief and not a person’s physical appearance because it just feels wrong to me and well, I’m about to be hypocritical AF, as well as petty.

I love everything about this idea AND this article.

I also highly recommend her book The Year of Yes.

John Cage & his Bathroom Barry White.

LA Law for the original, crazy David E. Kelley show. Super 80's, high on cheese but full of actual moments of tension (death penalty, rights of the disabled etc) as well as soapy AF soap opera nonsense. It’s all on YouTube.

I am both thoroughly charmed & deeply disturbed by this.

Scream. That’s my addiction to the list, but only if it doesn’t need to replace one already stated. Also including Ben makes me love this whole list even more.

I know I should be used to this shit by now but really...

I am always so glad when a man in a powerful position of authority within a given industry shows up to explain how women are the problem. Such courage, such valor... whatever would we do without these prophets?

I cannot express how much delight I take in seeing this piece of shit’s mugshot. I’m not proud of how I feel but damn, it’s definitely helping me deal with my anxiety over the impending apocalypse.

Sometimes, in the midst of an impending apocalypse, The Divine intervenes and offers us mere mortals a sign of hope..,

Every woman who’s ever been sexually assaulted - or FEARED an imminent sexual assault - knows this feeling. And we all know the second guessing of ourselves that follows. I have a TON of criticism on HRC as a candidate but THIS is not among them. You do what you can, when you can and you gotta trust & believe you did…

GAAAAAAHHH!! I believe it!!! We shame our daughters and we don’t teach our sons. IT’S BIOLOGY NOT A DAMN MORALITY PLAY! Woo, sorry, this genuinely has me on the edge.

Oh. My. Sweet. Lord. The rage I feel right now is overwhelming. I mean... what in the ACTUAL hell?!? I know a woman to had to explain to a state legislator- a man whose entire job is to represent ALLLLL of the people - that women can’t “hold in” a menstrual period the way people “hold in” needing to urinate. THIS DUDE…

I am not exaggerating when I say I could not get through this trailer. Waaaaay too much to process in real life for me to be ready for any kind of parody/satire/insert term here.

Having been raised Irish Catholic and having family members who were abused by priests, I cannot say this is even mildly shocking.

Chicago born & raised here. I still call them gym shoes! First time I moved away was to Mississippi and I asked someone in the Winn Dixie on my first shopping trip where the pop was and she looked at me like I had two heads! Had no clue it wasn’t called pop outside of Chicagoland!

I had my babies at 20 & 22. They’re both older than that right now. All I can say is good parenting stems from asking yourself if you’re doing your best, apologizing (to your kids when necessary) if you’re not, and striving towards doing the best you can. No one, regardless of finances, social status, background or…

Excellent profile, thank you so much for writing & sharing it. I’m passing it on to my family to read as well.
