Shortening yellow light time is a sure fire way to decrease safety. If they actually wanted to increase safety then they would get rid of the cameras and lengthen yellow light time, as well as lengthening the small period where all four lights are red

God changed his mind about black people so anything's possible.

I think this man was mentally ill. He didn't kill those police officers for the cause. He killed them because he wanted to be known. If you check out his Facebook page you'll see a status where he clearly has suicidal ideation. You'l also see some statuses that are misogynistic in nature (which explains why he…

This is so realistic. So many engaged couples who are not and have never been super into planning weddings end up being so beaten down by the combination of a thousand minute decisions that lead to massive price tags that their ceremonies and receptions in no way resemble the simple event they initially started out…

This is one of the infuriating aspects of the Black Lives Matter conversation, how quickly conservatives / many white Americans try to change the subject. "What about black men murdering black men? What about teenage pregnancy? Hey, ALL lives matter." Cool story bro, that's the not the subject at hand, and it is…

Because no white girl EVER got pregnant as a teenager, AMIRIGHT???

Guys, quick: cover the bottom half of FKA Twigs' face with your hand. Could she be Lisa Bonet or what?!?!

I practice in Ontario, Canada and self-represented accused persons CAN NOT cross-examine a complainant. The courts appoint a lawyer to come in to just do the cross.

How is it not illegal to cross-examine your stalking victim? Is that not just another way to terrorize them? I really don't understand how the courts allowed this.

Yeah, I think that we, as white people, HAVE to step away from the idea that racism is something intentional and conscious and deliberately cruel/prejudicial/harmful. It's so much more than that narrow set of racist actions, and it's absolutely true that we are ALL racist in that we have all internalized these ideas…

That line made me think of the 100,000 damn times I have argued on this site about how intentions don't matter if you consistently do the wrong thing. Your intention can only be pure once (if that); after that it's willful ignorance.

At first I was all excited about a Tobias Fünke lookalike...

the "male" way of expressing and behavior is always the model to which all employees must aspire - unless it's a woman, in which case she's either "hesitant" or "aggressive' and "bitchy"

Women at Work: A Guide for Men

Hmm, there's a lot to be said about this. On one hand, I agree that mainstream feminism focuses more on issues that primarily effect upper middle class white women. I remember reading an article on xoJane where a woman of color complained about the lack of intersectionality in Emma Watson's speech and the article was…

Does getting drunk at your husband's boss's boss's boss's house at an elegant party count? And then drunkenly slur that I wanted to have a baby and that 'my eggs need frying. ' and then talking about about beautiful I am? When we went home, I vomited and cried (of course). My poor husband. He asked me the next day if…

I got drunk on corn whiskey at my office's holiday party. I was home for 5 minutes before my wife made me sleep on the couch (her quote "You smell like cigarettes and a backwoods hooker". The next morning I woke up stark naked wearing nothing but Christmas socks. In an apparent attempt to cook (or maybe blow up my…

Someone should tell that dude about microsoft paint.
