While we’re on the subject of failures, why don’t you eat some avocado toast or something that Millennials supposedly do instead of buying houses and diamonds? Are you really mad that instead of fixing the world up the way you want it to be, we spent our youth getting fucked up and piercing ourselves in strange

Not taking that bet

It sounds like Hamilton Nolan is writing under the pen name Joan Summers. 

Yeah I thought that was really weird to have here. They took the step when so many corporate landlords aren’t doing shit.  Like why are they being called out here?

But it should be easily agreed upon that accumulating rental profit from the wages of people likely making far, far less than you is at best a tad questionable.

I have no issues with Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard owning a building and I think they’re being really good landlords by not charging rent for April. It’s decent and I wish my apartment complex would do the same.

So men are jerks when they don’t do anything to help raise their kids. But are also jerks when they get lauded for taking the (Admittedly) small steps that you’re saying men should take. Again, not how I’d approach the situation, but I hope it works out for you.

Seriously. Let’s not celebrate a man going against the standard and spending more time with their new child? If it was the norm then I would understand, but until then we SHOULD be celebrating it, writing about it, etc to help it become the norm.

Yeah. I’m not sure this article has it right. My opinion is—if taking paternity leave is seen as the norm, it won’t be as shocking/“disruptive” when women take maternity leave.   Of course, I also want to see laws passed to pay for paternity leave, etc.

This is exactly how conservatives argue against all types of labor protections, including affirmative action. With how overworked Americans are, it’s galling that you’d argue against any workers NOT taking as

“we want men to change their behavior” but also “stop encouraging men to change their behavior”. Doesn’t seem like the way to go about it. 

It’s much better if you unwind the paperclip and wrap a condom around the sharp end. You fill the condom with chili oil and blindly stab the paperclip into your ear as deep as you can get it. Once the condom full of chili oil ruptures, proceed to stab the paperclip into your ear 4-5 more times to make certain there’s

No it’s not. We’re talking about 2001, not 1951. I was 18 in 2001, and I remember going to a friend’s house after school and she wanted to watch this old Bing Crosby movie, “Holiday Inn”. Towards the end of the movie, there’s a minstrel show where all the performers are in blackface, and I remember even then, WAY
