So, since Barilla pasta

Is off my family's menu, can anybody share a homemade pasta recipe for either whole grain or spinach (or tomato) pasta?

I've never attempted making it from scratch and I'm a little bit nervous to try, but from what I've heard it's worth the effort.

For reference about why this gay household won't be using Barilla anymore: http://www.democraticunderground.com/113731941

When a Gay Guy gets Nabbed by the Sexual Orientation Police

I think he did a pretty good job explaining what it's like to face the gender and orientation police

But there's no rape culture, right?

Dr. McDevitt has been teaching sex education for a number of years and is considered an expert in human sexuality. She recently did an interview for Cosmo, among other media appearances. Of course, everyone expects some trolling after that kind if thing, but check out the disgusting email she got, followed by the public shaming she gave.

Whoo! He probably won't get a clue, but here's to hoping he'll at least shut his damn mouth regarding other people's bodies.

I can see the meta

Forum when I click to make a new post. I don't think it's been there since meta was closed down. Bug?

Meta: you can chuck it anytime you want, but it will never leave...

Only a good guy

With a tampon can stop a bad guy with a tampon...

Anyone else for skewering the ridiculous hygiene product ban?

The 5 Stages of Grief on DU

1. Denial
Hey, let's post about Pit bulls and movie theatres and cat pictures because everything will be just fine!!!

2. Anger
Why should we give them aid when their representatives voted against fed relief for others!?! That will teach them!
Global warming is a thing!! It caused this! Fix it now!

3. Bargaining
But why don't they have basements...
But why did they send the kids to school...
If only we put more money into the schools...

4. Depression
Posts about other things, like the fake scandals. Making sure we spend enough time on them.
Checking on our friends in the areas affected by the disasters.

5. Acceptance
Logging out, hugging our families a little harder, donating money, blood or time.

Just a thought.

Read these and thought of some folks on here

Sinfest is a comic I've read for several year now. Somewhere along the way the author had a MAJOR shift of perspective and at least at this moment, a lot of his comics are related to the damage patriarchy is doing. I don't pretend to know a whole lot, but I think he's done well depicting certain situations.

We may not know much, but keeping this in mind helps me stay sane. And I want to up the ante. I think whenever possible we should BE helpers.

Please share this far and wide, I've shared it on Facebook
It's a Boston Blood Donation place
