You know Joan. You don’t HAVE to keep bringing up the Kardashians on Dirt Big or other stories. No one is holding a gun to your head. (Or are they?—Let us know. THAT would be interesting.)

I really hate how shit like “‘working hard to prove himself’ as a father and as a boyfriend” just ignores the fact that he was already a father before True was born.

Middle-class families are now getting a taste of what it’s like to have one’s needs ignored by those in power.

Whewww, I feel awful for anyone who has been cooped up with their kids all these months. Them, and the essential workers who have been propping up the country deserve ALL the praise and additional checks from the IRS. And then extra time off to themselves once this nightmare is over.

Let’s get real: while the pandemic has made women and POC women in general’s lives even worse than before, it’s getting attention because quarantines, closed schools and stay at home orders are forcing more and more white men to spend more and more time on childcare and schooling. You can practically see them thinking…

It has been a nightmare. I am divorced so for half the week I am the only adult around with two school-aged children working from home. And employers do not trust their employees so every conversation is now a web-meeting conversation so he can see that I’m working. Plus, I get calls and texts at all hours since they…

While I wouldn’t have chosen the word “victimized,” I admit that I have never been comfortable with an adult woman choosing a child to act as her public proxy.

This an excellent point. Our district tried to transition to online learning, except some people apparently forgot that not every family here has internet access or a computer. Roughly 10% of the kids basically never showed up for online classes because they had no way of doing it, even with the kludged together IT…

Getting kids back into school is vital, not just because it provides childcare but because DL just further widens the gap between haves students and have-nots students. It is not a kindness to wave away three months (plus) of missed schooling for all ready struggling students.

Hoo, there’s a lot in that Sia section. What she’s labelling protectiveness, I’m reading more as controlling. And she’s wrong that she could return Maddie to normalcy, for one thing. The level of exposure she gave that child to shield herself from the same is not something that she can erase just by not using her in…

I mean, we could all just agree to ignore the Ks. Nothing of value will be lost...

Wonder if she’ll turn up dead in detention, too.

Thats the BIG rub. She still needs to totally do some serious time though. The tales about her are goddamn damning and she is guilty as fuck, IMHO.

The charges will stick, but will she talk and name names? 

I get what you’re saying, but I also feel like this is yet another manifestation of how shamefully negligent modern medicine can be toward women’s health issues specifically. Like, it seems far-fetched that this woman had two prior pregnancies and—presumably—many other gyno exams without anyone noticing she had a…

Right? The French Revolution was the disenfranchised beheading all the royalty (extremely rich.)

“It appears the French Revolution has now come to the Democratic Party based on initial primary results from New York and Kentucky,” Graham tweeted.

I know some people that should be worried about “The French Revolution” and it’s not the Democratic party. 

Not enough people are going to do their civic duty/bare minimum and wear fucking masks and stay fucking apart until it costs them money. That’s the bottom line. Our governor just mandated mask wearing in all public places starting Friday, Yakima’s infection rate is shooting through the roof, airlines spottily and…
