I have to say as someone who works in the oil and gas industry (as a geologist), I (and my colleagues) are always surprised that “fracking” is what has caught peoples attention as an environmental issue recently. To make a frac economic it need to be contained to the producing reservoir unit; when you break that unit…

Sounds like your husband needs to get the fuck overit. Has he considered therapy?

If your husband has trust issues 13+ years after they broke up, that’s not Michelle’s problem. It’s his.

The reason that people in developing countries jump at the chance at vaccinating their kids is because they either know someone who has or have buried their own children due to illnesses. They know that child death can happen to them. They know that should their children end up with a disease-related disability, any…

No one from Seattle should be allowed to be smug, condescending or insulting to anyone from the South until they get their vaccine rates up to Mississipi’s.

Yes, the poor sexist manbabies who have taken up days of protest over the unfair firing of a woman by a woman who falsely claimed gender discrimination and made a mockery of such a claim thereby setting back the ability of all women who actually suffer such discrimination to make such claims without seeming like…

Reddit is more than creepers and upskirt photos. There are several feminist subreddits thriving on the site. I get that the stuff that hits the front page is often mouth breather fare, but that hardly represents what Reddit is.

Reddit, a popular site for creepers and fans of upskirt shots and Gawker Media bloggers in need of content.

Urgh, i hate the petition and those signing it as they are racist/misogynists but it is increasingly looking like she is a fucking terrible CEO. Her firing of the women who runs AMA’s in such a disgraceful way is so inept. If i was VC firms who have $ in reddit I would be sharpening my knives.

Why a 7 yr old held any clout in your wedding is astounding to me.

Yeah, Louisiana and Texas are nightmarish without an AC. I can’t imagine how the rest of the SW is.
But why am I bothering commenting on an idiotic blog article that was undoubtedly written half-heartedly to meet a quota?

Ceiling fans are for the porch.

For people living in NYC or northward, agreed.

Yeah, that whole “if there’s not enough room under your seat for my kid and your backpack, TOO BAD” just reeks of entitlement.

Ugh, the brown sugar is the most disgusting part. BEANS SHOULD NOT BE SWEET!

What is with this stigma against wedding planners? Wedding planners do not make you high maintenance. Most of the time they are just practical. I am not crafty or creative. I have a full time job. I barely have time to go to the grocery store in an average week, much plan an event for my entire extended family and…

I was an event planner in my former life, so I was pretty confident about choosing vendors and making decisions on decor and food (hint: sometimes if you tell a vendor that you are planning your own wedding or have a background in event planning, they will give you a discount in place of the small fee they would have…

And of course Lenny Kravitz didn’t close out. Trombone Shorty did.

How irritatingly shrill and click-bait-y of you. This place could have continued taking her money and failing to educate her, but they decided she would be better served in a school that had curriculum designed for at-home students or partial attendance. Do you know how hard it is to educate? Widely different students…

It sounds like the school realized that it didn’t have the tools to accommodate this girl and so took steps to put her into an academic setting where she could thrive? That seems like the responsible thing to do?
