You: I think at some point in everyone's life though, after experimenting and maturing, they should look for monogamy.
You: Not necessarily marriage, but one person that can fulfull them both sexually and personally.
.... why? That's a lot to put on one person, and truthfully, it's nearly impossible. And some people aren't cut out for monogamy. If it's not hurting anyone else, why should society dictate how people live their lives?

You know, mulling over the numerous times I have been lectured over the last few days by pedantic people who assumed that I was ignorant or unaware of something when in fact I was very much aware and was approaching it from a different perspective, a place of different knowledge, including my own knowledge of myself…
I cannot help but note that there is something deeply interesting...

What would your dream job look like?
One where I could be paid to research interesting things, where deadlines existed but were flexible, and that I could do from home if I felt like crap that day. Or opt to take a day off if I need to. More than 10 sickdays a year, with an understanding boss and interesting co-workers who wouldn’t mind if I brought my kids in. :)

Hands down, end of discussion, no contest, the single shittiest phrase of the ’00s—even over “webinar.” “Hater” emerged in the ’90s, but it seeped its way into pop music’s bloodstream during this decade and shows no signs of going away. It’s the ultimate cop-out, equally applicable, and specious, whether you’re a megastar or a wannabe. Don’t want to own up to your own...

– Setting Boundaries in 15 words or less
Can I move to the country where this happens? Because in my experience, it’s “Wow, Anna, why do you have to take everything so seriously”, and the person blamed for making everyone uncomfortable is the person who said “I don’t find that funny.”

UGH.
I do not know what this cat ate but I just had to turn her butt so it wasn’t facing me. My eyes are watering.

Uhm. I rather think all of the above would be nice, but I could give you a few reasons I’d put “non-preventive, non-catastrophic” health insurance at #1 on that list of things to...
Memo to the New York Times:
isabelthespy:
meloukhia:
‘…disdain for such sweetly conventional trappings of sex appeal’ is not at all new. Women have been rejecting ‘feminine’ looks as style recreates itself for, uhm, centuries. ‘The look, streamlined and armored for tough times, reflects a distrust of trends and a skepticism toward traditional gender roles’ could just as easily refer to the 1920s flapper as to the...
