She’s so astonishing, it almost hurts my brain to watch her. It’s like I can't fully process that this is within the capacity of a human body. Give her all the medals forever. 

This calls for a new Sharknado movie, methinks. 

On the matter of his disability saving the day, that’s also a crucial component of A Quiet Place. So, like, maybe 2018 is the year of “Guess what? Disability is more complex than you think!”

We don’t know the circumstances, but sometimes when a person is in delicate health, it’s hard to get them into homes that aren’t accessible. I have a relative who relies on oxygen and while she has many family members nearby, she can’t visit their homes because there are too many stairs, no bathrooms on the first…

Ocasio-Cortez has said that she supports both free college and trade schools, so she’s quite conscious that university isn’t necessary or desirable for everyone, and that there are lots of different types of education and training that would benefit people in every part of the economy. 

Given that private prisons are big business and States have agreements with them to ensure that the prisons remain full, it is in no way a conspiracy theory to conclude that these practices are deliberate. When they make it harder for people to do the things that we know reduce recidivism, it’s quite transparent.

I think that the story is all the more effective because it focuses on someone who has committed a serious crime. She has a 15 year sentence, which means she will be out on the streets again. Therefore, it is imperative that she have every opportunity to emerge from prison with strong family bonds, mental and…

Note how in CPR14's example, the ability to take the risk means that her husband now employs four people. All of those people benefit from employment, plus they pay taxes, plus the larger economic impact of that business conveys all sorts of benefits to the community. I’m quite happy to have my tax dollars go into…

I want to know more about Stormy’s plans to direct a horror movie, and I wish I had a big pile of money so I could step into the breach after her cowardly investors bailed on her.

The sad thing is that if members of the jury have enough rape culture stereotypes floating around in their brains, they can easily frame this as “oh, isn’t it terrible how that slutty slut’s behavior has culminated in making her mother cry.” Or, even better “Wow, that mother’s crying was so manipulative! I guess her…

Agreed - Raisman for (whichever elected position suits her)

And let’s all appreciate the perfection of her name. Layman. Lay-man. Laym-an. To say nothing of Lindy Lou.

The saving grace is that Andy Warhol would have loved this story.

It’s true that there’s a big gulf between “beauty ideals” and many people’s real-life experience of desire, but the point of all this body shaming stuff is to support massive industries (beauty, diet, exercise, surgery, clothing, makeup, etc.) that require that women constantly worry about their appearance, and think…

“Some of my best lawyers are Jewish”

While I can see in the moment laughing along with the famous/powerful guy who you’ve been tasked with shepherding around (it’s certainly not impressive, but whatever) the part I find really disgusting is when he set up the woman who greeted them outside the bus so Trump could touch her. It’s one thing to not…

The dorgis are the ones with the darker coats and the more dachshund-esque body shape. Also, I love this photo of the queen.

Oh, good!

Duckworth was born overseas, so she wouldn’t be eligible. :( She should, however, have a major position in our dream administration.

Keep up the good work.
