I’ll take that bait:

As someone who recently nearly died likely because of my birth control pill at the ripe old age of 29 (hello, pulmonary embolism), I find the woo-woo concerns about hormonal birth control really frustrating. I had originally gone on birth control to modulate my extreme depressive swings around my period (in addition…

The thing that really annoys me is that they refer to “The Pill” as though there is only one hormonal birth control option out there and it’s this giant monolithic EVERYONE’S EXPERIENCES ARE THE SAME.

Okay, but what about the personal freedoms of their fellow students, who would much prefer not to breathe in the smoke?  You just canNOT smoke indoors, that’s my line in the sand.

Now if some older seniors wanted to vape in the bathroom, yeah, ok, I don’t love it but it’s technically legal

FFS, smokers’ rights rears its hideous head again.

There have not been ZERO studies - there have been a couple small studies (here’s one) that found that vaping worsened indoor air quality, specifically by increasing the concentration of nicotine and other compounds that are known to contribute to heart/lung disease and cancer. Here’s a longer article with more…

I would generally agree with you EXCEPT for shit that’s clearly illegal and extremely dangerous, like smoking before age 18. Now if some older seniors wanted to vape in the bathroom, yeah, ok, I don’t love it but it’s technically legal ... except for the secondhand smoke issue that would clearly affect minors. Smoking…

Just get rid of him already, all these fucking people and their disgusting fucking edgy streams, learn some manners and laws because this shit is tiring.

With all due respect, the psychological and emotional makeup of your daughters and their tastes is not going to be universally applicable to every other teenager out there. Your opinion is written well enough and quite valid, but that assumption is unreasonable.

The fact that her parents and physicians simply allowed her to die when they could have saved her is important

Good. I am against the whole idea of Influencers as a profession.

Obviously this article was written to instigate a fight but I’m going to fall for it anyway and stand firm in my belief that LaCroix is actually good. Some of us want something that is very lightly flavored because it’s more refreshing and I don’t like the sweeter stuff. Also, I think the decline is probably heavily du…

Break-ups and rejections aren’t personal affronts, they’re the natural result of the trial-and-error that goes into living your fucking life.

Just for anyone who needed to hear this today, alcohol is not responsible for your partner’s shitty abusive behavior. I had too much to drink hosting a bachelorette this weekend (safely at home), and my instinct was to wash the dishes and clean the kitchen. (Not very successfully, but the point stands.)

Have you... worked in an office... before? Messy drama queens of all genders, mean girls, and Chad sociopaths are everywhere. 

Jeffree Star is trash and I don’t really follow or care about makeup YouTube (or YT in general tbh) but James Charles is literally a teenager and to have adults starting internet fights with him over vitamins is....... not great. 

That’s such a weird fucking thing to say to people who are complaining because you’d never say the equivalent to people who are happy. Do you ever tell someone overjoyed about a new baby that “yeah, well, my aunt’s kid got into Yale with a full ride and is also immune to all disease so don’t be too happy about your…

Also, fuck people and how they talk about mental illness in relation to ‘celebrities’ or public figures.

I read the book the day it came out and loved it so much.
