Me, too. Guys especially should click through and read this piece and the comment thread if you want a greater understanding of the type of shit women have to put up with on a daily basis, just for having the audacity to be female in a public space.
I’ve said this a few time before on Jezebel, but in high school I carried one of my...
And anytime I think my world is wrong......
Like I said in an earlier post, I can’t find anything of this, my favorite Frank Loesser song anywhere (sure it’s there, I’m just clumsy…)but even the lyrics are good to have in your head. I don’t believe in god, but I do something like prayer, and words like this are good enough for me. Happy Monday, people.

Any suggestions for the tumblr gods? Not advertising - please, not advertising…
Taking in washing
Using it to teach english to foreigners (heh, heh. heh…)
Marrying it.
Putting a shilling in the hard drive every 45 minutes or so.
PERHAPS A MINORITY OPINION
….but I really wish that the magic-descended from heaven Karen UhOh would enable comments and open up more to dialogue. Cause chiki, we gotta talk.

Something tells me this could become an endless cycle. Drink vodka, puke vodka, clean vodka puke with vodka, drink more vodka…..

A New York Times story about a Texas family struggling with unemployment and the challenge to find insurance coverage for their 21 year old son who has cancer.
I’ve said it here before and I’ll say it again: a country without a decent universal health plan is like a country without sewers. Knee deep in shit.
Those assholes running around with their Tea Parties….I’d like...

To paraphrase that Mr Clinton: ‘It’s the keyboard, stupid’. Which is why Mr Feastingonroadkill uses a Sony Viao VGN-C2S equipped with that lovely Presto Xandros Linux OS as his primary internet weapon of choice. The Eee 701 is for the train.
Some kind person tell me the Acer is good too, because it’s all I can afford. (I have had an Acer PC and keyboard for 3 months and...
“Have a vasectomy the natural way”

science:
A bunch of bacteria living hundreds of meters beneath a glacier has been found. They survive by “breathing” iron with the help of a sulfur catalyst, and apparently feed off organic matter trapped with them when their habitat was sealed off 1.5-2 million years ago.
OH, I THOUGHT YOU WERE REFERRING TO MY LONELY HEART.

I see Side One was loaded with Bs and Js, so hopefully you’re not too worn out for ten more KUO Clits to Pit:
11. The Kinks, The Great Lost Kinks Album (Reprise, 1973). Cultists—me—swear by this record. It’s a collection of effluvia from the Kinks’ late-60’s period, which I will get into an argument with you was the greatest creative period by any single artist in rock and roll...

You know what this is like? Imagine if you convinced your prudish mother that a giant vibrator was actually a hand massager. And then she walked around for a week, just whipping that dildo out at work and restaurants and things — whenever she had a hand cramp — before finally figuring out, to her embarrassment, that it isn’t just a *coincidence* that her massager looks like a big, fat...
“It was fake and I wish that everyone knew that!!!!… I AM SOO SORRY!”
– Kristy Hammonds, former Domino’s employee who videotaped another ex-co-worker sticking snot on sandwiches and all sorts of other nasty shit and then POSTED IT ON YOUTUBE, in an email apologizing to the company for the incident. Hammonds claims the food orders were never delivered. But still, like,...

Mr Feastingonroadkill is conspicuous in his absence. Last heard of at Town Hall in Cannes. I hope all is okay.
I noticed as well. When do we send out a search party?

(A new addition to the blog in which I post my brother’s stories from his experiences studying abroad in Madrid. Sarah Heartburn, I hope you get a kick out of these.)
When first arriving in Madrid, all of us on the program spent our first two nights in a hotel where we had to attend a series of lectures and conferences held by [our school] to acclimate us to Madrid,...

OK, TUMBLRS, GAWKERITES, JEZZIES, WORKSMOKERS, etc…it’s obivous that Bristol is living in a toxic environment and needs help getting out. Can someone set up a PayPal to at least get this kid the...

In Australia, everything is shut today (Good Friday), including pubs (!). Even though, for the most part, we are very bad at doing anything religious. We have a 4 day weekend, bloody brilliant.
Is it the same everywhere else?
In Madrid everything is closed except for newspaper kiosks and the bars. Good god, can’t close the bars! Even my bakery is closed. But I can get a ham...
