I recommend Behind The Bastards and The Bechdel Cast. I am going to subscribe to the podcast you recommended.

It's all lies to sell papers, get clicks.

The Sun is a racist rag (owned, IIRC, by Rupert Murdoch) so this is just another piece of trash.  Good on her PR team from correcting the record.  Everything Megan goes through reminds me of what Princess Di endured.

Gotta love how the racist Brit tabloids straight up projects their racism onto the fucking queen.

So we’re gonna see 280 workers arrested and deported, and 0 executives charged for illegally hiring them.

 Donald Trump maaaaaybe is in the early stages of dementia, which, it should be said, is a truly awful disease.

YES! This is the short and sweet version of what I was about to say. It seems more and more the general attitude of people is that rules simply don’t apply to them. If there is a line or a wait for something, they’ll find a way to cut; if there is a barrier that says “do not cross” they are going to cross it.

That “acting like adults” thing has really been working out well for them, hasn’t it.

This story should seen through the lens of recent ATC crackdowns in the French Quarter against all so-called “vice/adult” businesses including heterosexual bars and strip clubs, as part of an attempt by the city to turn the FQ into a “family-friendly” neighborhood. This has more to do with gentrification in New…

I’m going to be that person. The once freaky and fun neighborhood that these bars reside in has been taken over by trust-fund hipsters, scene capitalists, and AirBnB. It’s inevitable that they will either be bought and re-branded as something more acceptable or become—like The Country Club—some boring but safe version…

Here's an idea, ladies. Stop fighing to help lead one of the world's oldest kleptocracies and start fighting to destroy it.

So much money is spent on products that fail miserably for the reasons you cite as related to activity and overall efficacy.

It always cracks me up how much stuff people apply topically to their skin because it has collagen in it, when collagen is too big a molecule to be absorbed  through skin.

Honestly there are few hyped ingredients in beauty that have any scientific backing to them. Vitamin C and Retinol are the only ones that come to mind that do have some peer reviewed literature to point to. But even with those two, a lot mainstream cosmetics products that feature them either don’t use the exact form…

You’re not gonna choose this cause it’s too dark, but definitely fist fights with dear old dad. (Don’t beat your kids and they won’t start hitting you back around age 12, 13.)

When I was about 6ish/ 7 ( I am an old) I was allowed to take my birthday money and go to the college record store to buy a record. The college kids kind of steered me to a record with a picture of Queen Elizabeth on the cover instead of the Little Red Hen, and I liked the tiara so I unknowingly bought a Sex Pistols…

“Sometimes” pancakes? Nein, Fritz. We need a firm commitment to a steady supply of pancakes or no deal.

A little over a decade ago I actually did this!!!!

Thank you so much, I basically said this in another comment but I’m glad I’m not the only one. Regional diversity is never properly acknowledged in discussions of Black culture. We are not a monoculture! Black cowboys have existed for centuries and contributed hugely to cowboy aesthetics, even if they weren’t…

When one of my favourite indie rappers (if that’s a thing) went country a couple of years ago, I didn’t realise it was a trend. This explains a lot.
