But her influence as an influencer is widespread and extends beyond her blog and out into the heavens where she finally convinced the angels and the choir eternal to ditch their Instagram feeds

I get a good laugh whenever people claim that Uber is more dangerous than taxis. I’ve had experiences in cabs with drunk/sleepy drivers, coked out drivers, creepy old men, drivers who are smoking, etc. On more than one occasion I’ve had to ask a cab driver to pull over and let me out and then call another cab. And the…

No, it’s not fun. It’s incredibly stupid.

Smoking is a contributing factor to heart disease. It doesn’t just cause cancer.

Only accidents (car and others) cause more deaths of white males between the ages of 35-44 than heart disease.

I mean, his biggest output other than the first successful automotive startup in the last 80 years or so. And the hundred thousand plus electric cars that it has already built. And the rockets that land themselves.

Beyond that, what’s this guy ever done to back up his boasting?

Same answer? “Is this a real question? It is called opportunity cost. They clearly don’t have anything better going.” 

Venture capital is what makes Uber successful. VCs subsidize the service to the tune of $3 billion per year (or 60% of every ride), which makes Uber cheaper than other taxi services.

My sister and I argue about this all the time. We grew up fairly lower middle-class, but our grandparents were always there to buy new tires or help my mom with grocery money. So many people don’t have that and when you do have it - that safety net - it’s easy to take it for granted that you aren’t really looking at…

Any stories that Jezebel publishes about money and poverty as it relates to all kinds of women are stories I want to read. There’s so much shame and secrecy about finances in our culture, and stories like this have a way of lancing those boils and making everything clearer and easier for everybody.

That’s probably true about most people, not just those at Coachella.

Had Elizabeth run I could have cast a vote for a nationalist, a populist, a thoughtful and honorable person who carries with her no sense of superiority or pretension. She is noble in her actions and usually in her words. Hell, she wrote a personal finance book that is still working its way through my mind.

I’ve found it’s helpful to start small, and always in a non-confrontational manner. There’s actually sound neuroscience behind this- if people feel attacked, they go into fight or flight mode and just shut down. So go small and go calm. When I’m done doing that, I like to say, “Well, it’s something to think about,”…

Fair question, and glad you asked, and YES it’s pretty different from the shenanigans going on here in NC:

I read the same. A consistent 7% swing in districts using electronic ballots vs. paper ones is...odd.

Ivanka must be breathing a sigh of relief after having three.

To be fair, it was a different era. In 1998, urinating in other people’s beds wasn’t as big of a deal as it is today.

I agree. If they wanted to write and include the note to her- fine. But posting it publicly is crossing boundaries/ a bit of a violation to me. Not cool.

Of course he’s full of shit, every single thing he says is a stupid lie. He’ll never debate Clinton in any kind of real neutral setting, he’ll only do it if he can arrange for a moronic circus scene full of screeching idiots who roar over his spastic twitching and dopey insults. He’s a grade-A coward, a sleazy punk, a…
