As someone who works for planned parenthood currently this isn't helpful. Do you see those independent providers leading the fight or taking action  to protect abortion access? They could be better employers, but realistically they can't spend money on their workers they want to when they have to spend money fighting…

As someone who has worked in abortion care for 20 years (and, in the past, PP for close to 4 years of that)... PP is not a great place for many employees. They operate in disorganization and chaos. Regardless of how PP brands themselves, if folks support abortion access, they should sent their donations and support to …

Traumatized former PP employee here. I worked for them for 3.5 years and was scared to the point of feeling ill, on a daily basis, that my job was going to be axed with no warning. I was luckily able to leave for another job, but regardless of if you leave on good terms or you were axed, you are DEAD to PP once you…

When Jalops will consider buying a 2020 model

It makes you flexible, that’s for damn sure.

The ‘Vette has not been a working man’s car for decades.

Taking bomb threats seriously has nothing to do with what you're talking about. You should probably stop talking. 

“We were the generation that changed everything!”

The sad thing is that the 65 year old guy retiring from the foundry is himself a dying breed. Most of those fat pensions were phased out many years ago at this point, and the blue collar guy will be lucky to afford to retire at all without a Wallmart greeter job. 

Lapid: “Anything but green.”

I respect this womans hustle. She is click bait incarnate and she is making bank of it now.

Totally fair, I mean he’d have to be able to read to know not to take a cap off, and that’s not a given in this case.

It was a joke.  I’m sorry that I touched a nerve. YOU’RE obviously having a hard time processing this.  I’m sorry that I upset you.

Like how the US tax payer paid for two pointless wars in the middle east that killed thousands of my generation? Or maybe when they bailed out the auto industry? Or the banks? God forbid the average citizen benefit from something. 

This is a good take. I’m the same age as Mike’s little sister (4 ish) so season 6 (1991) would be when my parents divorced.

Oh shit. The recession is about to hit the show. Mr. Wheeler could lose his job and it would fuck the whole household up (what happened to my family).

Hopper has PTSD, at a minimum. (And PTSD alone is plenty.) He’s a guy self-medicating with alcohol, unable to ask for help and likely pushing it away when offered.

I don’t think even he likes how he’s behaving, as evinced by his letter to Eleven at the end.

Mrs. Wheeler’s would-be tryst does 3 things, 2 of which are for her character.

It’s almost as if his first daughter and he’s trying to protect a surrogate daughter who is still technically on the run from an evil organization and isn’t sure how to process his feelings.

Another sort of egg was when Joyce (Winona Ryder) visited the school science teacher. He was playing Weird Al’s My Balogna which is a parody of My Sharona that Winona Ryder enthusiastically danced to in the 90s movie Reality Bites! I had to laugh at that.

I could have sworn that Joyce reading all of those science books, trying to figure out why her kitchen/work magnets stopped working, her pondering what’s happening was a call back to...
