It’s also because, to a troubling degree, “fairness” has become more important in newsrooms than truth*. When I worked in newsrooms in the early aughts, one of the most frustrating things was how the higher-ups (editors and to a smaller degree publishers) frequently insisted upon including a perspective we knew to be…

Oh good. I was just saying the other day that we needed a new Palin family. And I’m sorry, but:

He came chest to chest looking to fight? He’s goddamn lucky they didn’t shoot his ass dead in the street. Guns are for self defense, and that’s EXACTLY the situation where dumb mother fuckers might end up shot.

Who cares whether he had arresting power or not? Hell, even if he wasn’t even a constable, just a normal guy, if a woman runs up to you and says she sees a woman being raped, who doesn’t get the fuck out of the car and go help any way they can?

Ahem..

She said it has caused some officers to “rethink the profession.”

I had my annual exam this year. My OBGYN said that she’s been doing more lobbying since Dobbs so I asked her what that was like.

Exactly. And after writing that I wondered if I was too harsh, so I read it to my husband (who also knows the dude, and sees him in more social settings). He said I was spot on, and he’s seen Dude turn down *interested* women because they were normal looking and/or over 35.

I came to this conclusion with the Richard Spencer “moderate” garbage on Bumble.

One of my male co-workers is the embodiment of a loaf of stale white bread. He wants “a wife.” Never “a partner”... a wife. He has a subscription to every online dating platform and is *that guy* who continues to visit a bar alone because the 23 y/o bartender is pretty, thinking he has a shot with her because she’s…

Over/under on the percentage of “females” on the site that turn out to be bots (a la Ashley Madison for sure ... and likely ALL the rest as well)?

Oh oh!

You could have 100 women write down 10 things they are looking for from their ideal partner, compile that data and create a list of 10 or 12 things that women are looking for, become the ideal embodiment of those things, make it your life’s work to make sure that you have those 10 or 12 characteristics, and you can…

This is exactly right. The guys who throw themselves at you and make it easy are, by and large, totally gross. You gotta hunt for that diamond if you’re a woman, and it’s a hell of a lot more effort than most guys are willing to put in.

So ironic. When I dated, I could have gone on first dates every night of the week for a month if I wanted to.

No this is cuffy not buffy

All the kids killed in school shootings are post birth abortions.

I like that the reason D.C. residents don’t deserve to have representation to the Congress that imposes taxes on them (I forget my history....didn’t we fight a war over some bullshit like that?) is because if D.C. residents are allowed to choose their representation, they will never choose Republicans.  I guess at…

They say that if you listen closely, you can actually hear Peter Thiel opening his checkbook...
