McCullough calls it—perhaps a little too stridently— “the North Koreanification of Canadian political reporting” in his headline,

The countries are the US, the UK, and Costa Rica. I can only assume that commenter has a narrow and warped view of Costa Rica?

Judgy shitshow indeed. There was an article about destination weddings and having family on different continents/countries. I commented saying this was an issue for me. We have significant chunks of essential guests scattered across 3 countries, 2 continents. Someone replied to me like “WE GET IT. UR RICH! GOD DO U…

I am one of those people who feels pressured and collapses. I’m just letting the clock run on this for me. There will come a point where we’ll have been engaged for so long that the idea of a wedding will bore anyone invested in the wedding (all 10 of them).


That’s the funny thing, there’s like 10 people who actually…

So I take it you married a lentil?

You’re too good at this.

My biggest issue is I have too big a family with too extreme politics.

To thin down the herd and my per-plate expense, I will give guests 8 different dates inconveniently spaced through the school year (lots of teachers in the fam), but close to holidays, on weekdays only. Only one of those dates is the actual wedding…

I love this. I often whine in the comment section about my wedding planning malaise. I am forever engaged, never a bride, by choice. The whole wedding planning shindig is just nah. Not my bag.

There is always a commenter who is like I HAD A $10 WEDDING! I don’t caaaare. I don’t want soluuuutions. I want pity.

The fact that weddings are over is perhaps most cleanly encapsulated in the “wreck the dress” shoot. Have you ever witnessed someone doing one of these monstrosities, in which a bride rolls around in the mud (or the water, if it’s a beach wedding) to ritualistically “ruin” the very symbol of her bride status? When…

This is the fastest I have personally experienced a food fad. Into it and over it in the same moment.

A++++

I totally thought you spelled it right, if it’s any consolation.

You went to prom with Elsa? Jealous!

“Astounding”

Dude this teenage british girl solved my menstral cup problem.

When I first started using my menstraul cup (*resists the urge to tell you when as a humble brag*) I wrote a 10 point list to my girlfriends to convince them to convert. I am ashamed BUT THEY ARE BLESSED.

Your analogy is very bad tho. :/ Because politics is not analogous to a restaurant in many key ways. By refusing to vote for Clinton in protest of the entire democratic process, purist voters (who are a minority) will not bring democracy to a halt to have their demands be heard, but will only empower Trump or Cruz.

The difference is that Clinton’s supporters can get on board with Sanders’ principles where they differ from Clinton’s because they are not the issues most important to those people, whereas Sanders’ supporters cannot get on board with Clinton’s principles where they differ from Sanders’ because they are are the…

I mean, her voting record aligns 93% of the time with Sanders. We use birth control with worse odds than that without batting an eye.

One million stars to you!
I keep commenting all over the damn place that politics is compromise and as a Sanders supporter I view Clinton as a fine compromise. Their platforms are nearly identical. Where they differ, her position is still better than Trump’s. She has experience up the wazoo and is hella politically…
