Wait, you don’t remember all of the black people who voted for Ben Carson or all those Hispanic people who vote for Ted Cruz? Are you implying that women and minorities have the mental capacity to see beyond superficial details and can make decisions based on economic/philosophical concerns?

now-deleted tweet from Jane Eisner, the director of academic affairs at the Graduate School of Journalism at Columbia University, who offered the following in response to Ocasio-Cortez and Ilhan Omar’s endorsements of Sanders: “I find it fascinating that women of color overlook female and minority candidates to…

Pets as well!

I have absolutely seen it, and it’s not that rare. Most common with parents who have young kids. I used to complain about them before I had a kid of my own. Then I had a kid, taught him from a very young age that you had to be totally quiet on a train/bus/airplane and how to wear headphones, and now I complain about…

Damn the Russia hysteria in American politics is hilarious and insane. Tulsi is a lot of things (hindu nationalist apologism for example) but the by any reasonable standard one would say Tulsi is a Russian “agent” then you would have to also say a number of establishment democrats are Saudi and Israeli “agents” (which…

Neither Trump nor Gabbard are Putin puppets. There is no evidence for that. Hillary Clinton is pushing slanderous conspiracy theories because she’s mad that Tulsi dared to endorse Bernie over her in 2016, and still can’t take responsibility for her failure.

I said *state*, you stupid, illiterate fuck. A city has little power in influencing state budgets. You should know that. Also, if I remember correctly, Illinois had a republican governor not long ago?

Special Education teacher checking in, this is rad to see the support. Solidarity to my brothers and sisters in Chicago.

It astounds me I’m trapped for life for wanting to get an education.  If I had started a failed Retro Beeper business, I could just walk away.  I’d honestly renounce me degrees if I could get my loans discharged.  I could find my way just fine in the world without this anchor slowly drowning me.  I haven’t done the…

We shouldn’t be forced to rent forever (which, according to this New Yorker, is quite literally throwing money away) or be homeless because we went to college.

“Hm, I am not sure this headline writer knows how copyright laws work”

You can definitely have too many cats. I have visited patients who were cat hoarders. The horror...

I know a lot of people like him (my mother included), but man am I gonna feel a bone-liquifying sense of relief/joy when Mayor Pete finally leaves the race. 

The headline could be better. My first thought after reading it was that this transgender person was made fun of in Chappelle’s special and later killed themselves- not that her and Chappelle were friends...

right? even if they reached for your gun, you CLEARLY still have it

It’s about the deputy feeling disrespected I’d wager. Cops are so twitchy about it and think just because of who they are they deserve respect.

dash cam footage from the Simek shooting reportedly shows Michael tackling Simek and tasing her. Then, she allegedly shot Simek twice in the back and buttocks as she ran away.

She divorced him, people shouldnt be asking her about this. She isn’t required to have an opinion on her ex -husbands criminal behavior.
