    I think its pretty common that when students are divided by "ability", especially later on in middle or high school, it can weigh pretty heavily on the students in the "lower abili…

    It would be entirely fair to say that sexism is also on the decline, I don't dispute that. For example, my father can no longer sell me for 3 goats (without my consent, of course).…

    If only there were some sort of world wide network of information where women could write about their experiences and share them with total strangers. I guess we'll have to leave i…

    Rhode Island always keeps it classy. Though I'm honestly surprised it wasn't Dunkin Donuts.

    I think its a bit unfair to compare our parents generation (boomers) to ours (millennials, arguably). The first thing that comes to mind is that, at least in my social circle, no o…

    I'm the opposite. I can eat at a nice restaurant alone and enjoy my thoughts and not think twice about it. When I see someone else eating alone, my heart breaks and I contemplate a…

    Not that I agree with Bradley Mannings punishment, but I think a key difference is that he was not a civilian.

    My favorites are the "mens rights activists" who completely shit on women, complain about how "nice" they are, wear ill fitting fedoras, and then wonder why no one responds :) Ther…

    I was optimistic when I learned that GIMP would open .psd files. Then I noticed the distinct lack of a slice tool. Googling found me no useable alternatives other than "crop, save,…

    Wow, something happening in Providence! I can't help but notice the site doesn't list an actual location, does anyone know where this is taking place?

    This post is actually better than most. Granted its only been an hour. Its fair to point out that going out of your way to get a female speaker simply because she is female is not …
