“...never underestimate the ability of a mediocre man to assume a situation needs his input, no matter what.”

I need to memorize this to use when describing my ex.

Hooooooooly shit that pissed me off so bad when it happened. Like just watching that video made me blow a blood vessel.

People who treat nature as their own personal canvas infuriate me.

My daughter works at Olive Garden as a hostess, they were really good to her throughout her pregnancy, shortening her shifts, giving her shifts where she rolls silverware instead of standing at the hostess desk. Before coming back, she discussed the fact that she was breastfeeding with the managers and would need to…

This is exactly the kind of nonsense I'd waste money on if I had it. But, alas, I do not.

An Elle rep says the mag switched the format of the copy online (it now says to buy the issue for full credits) for the sake of “user experience.”

I go back and forth on this song, but what always brings me back to liking it is the line “at least I’m gonna say that I tried.”

Key and Peele came to the same conclusion. They, like many people, called it the ‘Christmas Rape Song.’

This was not a “screw up” & I don’t see a slippery slope.

No. Fuck these guys. It’s one thing if a mother has a premie and freaks out and doesn’t go to the hospital (but it’s probably still a crime, I was panicked isn’t a get out of jail free card). It’s quite another if a couple has a “religious” conviction that demands they sacrifice their child rather than seek safe and…

There are no national licensing standards for midwifery. Some places require a nursing degree, some require a midwifery course, and some require calling yourself a midwife and not lying about your experience. I think the thing that frightened me most in trying to quickly check Oregon’s requirements is that there is at…

It doesn’t sound like the midwife they’re referencing was there. She was castigated by the judge but not a party to this case.

FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT! KISS! KISS! KISS! KISS!

Same. The state shouldn’t be in the business of murdering its citizens. We have enough citizens murdering other citizens already, case in point.

I am relieved that he was found guilty, but I am, as always, completely against the death penalty.

The thing is though, most white people never think about their privilege, or know exactly what it means to be white in America. That’s why it’s called privilege. A documentary like this—especially one that is being aired on MTV—is going to expose a lot of white people for the first time to the idea that they should…

If conversations start, then it’s a start.

I’ve seen this documentary, and it is truly a well done look at introducing young (MTV-age) people to think critically about their whiteness. (The host being your primary indication.) No, we shouldn’t need a documentary about this, but here we have one, and MTV’s look different campaign is doing some bomb ass things…

The Kumbaya-post racial BS that was fed to children in the 90’s/2000’s has come to bite us in the butt because you have this generation of white millenials who cannot engage critically around race and white privilege. I think it may do some viewers around the country some good to see other young white people talk…

Meh, us whitey white whites are rarely ever forced to look at our own privilege. If those who are privileged aren’t made to take a hard look at it, then they won’t. Fact of life. So, making documentaries to help point that out (as obvious as it might seem to some) probably isn’t hurting anything and could possibly…
