Conservatives aren’t interested in the basics of humanity like empathy and compassion.

I think a lot of the (understandable) knee jerk opposition people have to calls to defund or abolish the police has to do with the misapprehension that police exist to protect individuals or that they are part of the mechanism for serving justice. Protection and justice are not what the police are for, no matter what…

Yep, Cali is a community property estate.  She doesn’t want to lose the vineyard to all the civil suits coming his way.

She is protecting her money.  There might be more to it, but this is one of the main reasons.

Time to bust this out again...

I admit to some schadenfreude over the on-line rage that some of these folks have over the Chalamet/Jenner hookup. It’s almost as delicious as the on-line rage was over Taylor Swift and Tom Hiddleston.

Agreed.  This is 100% a “we’re sorry we got caught” apology.  Which is really too bad, because I’ve always liked Kunis.  Kutcher seems like a douchy frat bro, but Mila seemed nice.

That’s the problem with the internet and social media in general these days. Everyone is very quick to make a decision on whether someone is “bad” or “good” based on very little information in a hive-minded manner. People are more complicated than being categorized as good or bad. Ashton, Mila, etc were friends with…

Did they discredit victims in their letter? My knowledge is that they tried to present another side of Masterson that they had experienced as part of their friendship. Giving knowledge of that other side of a person is supposed to be part of the ‘justice’ element of the criminal justice system (the blindfolded woman…

Kunis and Kutcher are only upset because the letter were released. Which they should have known would happen since anything filed with the court can be made public.

What if...what if we admit that people are inherently complicated and don’t require that the people who are close to those who do bad things immediately denounce them? What if we say that even people who are on death row – who are a majority black and brown men – deserve to have one or two people who have loved them…

Kutcher needs to have a seat and think about the people he defends. He also stood up for “JoePa”. 

It really does make you wonder how many other rich and famous people are walking around knowing awful shit about their friends and colleagues and are too chicken to go public—or simply don’t care.

Having watching a lot of Conan (mostly during the Late Night era), I don’t think this indicates that he knew anything about Masterson, just because he’s used this type of line with a lot of guests. It’s possible - it’s not like I could know for sure - but I doubt it given just this clip to go on.

As far as decongestants go, Afrin works. It really does. But there are down sides. It will clear out your sinuses enough for you to breath, but you won’t FEEL like they’re clear. And then your nasal congestion will return even worse than before, so eventually you’re just going to have to tough it out. But it works in…

You take the sudafed to stop the running sinuses. That way you don’t have to worry about the amount in your lungs. If you do have a lungful of slime, guaifenesin is terrific, because it helps the body bring mucus up to be spit out or swallowed. You will surely need more than 200 mg. Check the bottle - some…

Natural and homeopathic are not the same thing, you know.

Honey is not homeopathic. Homeopathic is not synonymous with “natural” - it’s a specific discredited theory that water has memory if you take something that would cause a disease and dilute it so much that not a single particle of the original substance remains, it will cure that disease.

Homeopathy and phytotherapy (natural, plant based remedies) are NOT the same thing. Homeopathy relies on the stupid idea that remedies get more effective the more you dilute them. Which is BS in and of itself, and also the tiny microscopic particles of the actual ingredient in homeopathic “medicine” are simple…

I don't understand as to why washing fruits with dish-soap is bad - which is what I do. I have witnessed too many times where fruit or vegetable falls on the floor (and rolls), to be picked up (other shoppers, or even store staff) and placed back on the shelf to be sold. I wouldn't eat from store floor, why would I…
