I have been a woman since 70years. I took the contraceptive pill. I do not have the faintest clue of what oestrogens are tasting or smelling and if they have a colour! As for tapioca pearls, who knew they could be misandrists! #FoxNews is reaching pathetic levels.

James Earl Jones acting in this scene is awesome. So much grief, so many regrets. As if killing her is breaking him. A decision he has to take but one he regrets, he will always regret, one which will always wound him. Unrequited love? Love lost? A road taken to perdition...

Aged 28, my aunt taxi hit a tree. A true accident, no drug, no DUI. At first the paramedics thought her dead, left the scene with the surviving taxi driver. Then the car mechanic noticed the body was breathing. They got an ambulance back. She had been married for 6months. It took her two years ./.

Medieval Fabric Colors
The medieval world is often imagined as drab - a wash of grey stone, brown earth, and muddy peasants. The reality was far more vivid, and far more nuanced.
