back to hell next year and then when you thought it couldn’t get worse... 2024! i will always vote blue because it is much better than the gop having unlimited power again. i’m already seeing so many people not wanting to vote and not caring if republicans take over because the dems didn’t go through with every single…

What’s happening right now is unbelievable. Even recognizing how much Democrats can fuck things up, I never would have thought they could fuck up just passing one of the most popular pieces of major legislation in my lifetime (over 75% support overall, 59% OF REPUBLICANS support it) while Republicans are over there…

Maybe Cancel Culture is what happens when White People* are held accountable.

who she claims is just “very young” and “emotionally unwell”

Holy shit. Way to argue you didn’t disrespect a black person by disrespecting another black person. She really should've let her lawyer do the talking. Also, um... Daddy? This girl is The Worst.

As an avid listener to “Washington Journal” every morning on CSPAN, I haven’t heard a real increase in the number of ordinary Trumplicans threatening civil war. This massive support for Trump’s antics is a figment of delusional minds and the media. When I first started participating in the conversations in 2018, every…

Well, masks not on but...

“Bratty” is an interesting way to describe a pretty positive write up about Biden’s speech, but go off I guess.

They’re absolutely scrambling to figure out what to use against him now that he delivered a good speech and hardly fumbled. You can tell they were expecting it to be a flop.

I love this attitude so many Democrats seem to have adopted. “Republicans who don’t stand up to Trump are spineless cowards. Faux News is just a Trumpaganda outlet, not real news. How do idiot Republicans not see what a disaster Trump is? Also, if you say a single bad word about Joe Biden, if your comments about him…

He did do what he needed to do: Give a clear, steadfast speech. PLUS, the Republicans can’t play the “he’s a senile dummy” card nearly as easily anymore, and even the president had a weak response. The bar was on the floor, he did a good job. What else do you want me to say?

Millennials are reaching forty years old. Stop dismissing a grown ass adult with an opinion because you don’t like it. Do you want propaganda? Do you want Ashley to not be honest in her analysis? It’s hers, not yours. FFS she gave a shot out to Warren and that’s still not enough for you (and others on this thread).…

This just seems so stupidly short sighed on the part of Conde Nast/BA. I used to watch at least one of the BA videos daily as my daily inoculation against COVID-induced depression, but stopped as soon as their shitty practices came to light; the fact that they offered the BIPOC talent so much less even AFTER…

she actually lost her brother in a car accident in 2019 if you can imagine even more trauma for this amazing woman to have to navigate. I am broken hearted for her wonderful mother best friends loved ones and fellow survivors everywhere. what an incredibly bright light in the world 

My story. I was 16 and intoxicated to the point of being very sick. My friend and her boyfriend were arguing in a bedroom, leaving me alone with a football player who helped me to the bathroom because I was vomiting. He locked the door behind him and attempted to rape me. I fought him and eventually made enough noise…

When I was a teenager, I was raped by a very popular football player and I told no one. It took me 30 years to come to terms with it. Just once I would like to see teen survivors turn the destructive behavior away from themselves and onto the rapist. Just once I would like to see the boy’s house burned down, the boy’s…

The whole thing is so fucking sad and just a wretched indictment of society, both the immediate aftermath and that years later we collectively could not help and protect her instead of the rapist. Even with all the perceived visibility around sexual assault and rape in the last few years (#metoo, Nassar doc, Audre and…

I’m going to say this much in my opinion, this young was probably strong enough to have survived the sexual assault, but not the outlandish assault sat upon her by her community, public servants, and that piece of shit family the Barnett’s.

So, the causes of ASD are still not entirely understood. All that is understood is that there can be a genetic component. There is no test. Also, the nature of ASD is that it is a spectrum disorder, so there are already many sub-types that are identified. What irks me about stories like this, is that the reader is…

We don’t have much evidence for non-genetic causes- there are some correlational known relationships like having a mother who took antidepressants while pregnant and there’s a popular pesticide which has been known to cause increased disabilities in children who live near where it was used but we don’t know definitely…
