Tuition is inflated because states aren’t subsidizing education at the same time colleges and universities need to keep up with today’s technology and the costs that brings. So the lack of taxpayer funding is really the reason for massive student loan debt.

I’d like to see research on how having ob/gyn office waiting rooms filled with images of dads and men affects women’s involvement in the prenatal period. “An increased involvement in prenatal care” just sounds like dudes nagging their pregnant partners to me. I don’t need more women’s experiences turned paternalistic.

These are my preferred spoons. I even bought a box of 100 because I can’t rely on the cafeteria to have them on hand to pilfer since there is only a small canister of them by the soup. They are sturdy and I don’t feel like my food is going to melt the plastic while I eat like those white spoons.

Um....yeah, he just happened to have a Nazi uniform on hand for this “last minute decision.” Uh-huh.

If only there were a way to make sure it was the umbrella-bringers who deservedly get impaled instead of innocent bystanders. Beach needs: towel, sunscreen, water, reading material.

Not just the self-care/beauty industry, but also…

I was thinking he looked like a version of Hank Azaria that had been cloned one too many times.

The thing is, even ending all immigration won’t solve their real issue which is that more Americans are browner than back in the “good ol’ days.”

If he can’t be trusted to testify under oath, how is it that anyone can trust him to be president?

In order to be charged, the victims have to press charges, yes? So this means his parents pressed charges against him?

He’s yelling that he’s trying to be as professional as he can, and I believe him.

The problem with pumpkin pie is clove. It’s also the problem with pumpkin spice anything and certain college students.
