"What if we cared about those living in poverty as much as we care about celebrities?"

1) You do not have a right to be the star of your own nationally-syndicated television show. That is a huge, huge privilege that is bestowed upon a very, very small amount of people in the entire nation. It's ok to have standards, like, must be competent, and must not be a horrible person.

When I used to work Thanksgiving and Black Friday, both were optional and I was paid time and a half. And since I needed the money more than I needed to suffer through my family, I was thankful for the opportunity to make money.
That said, fuck employers who force their employees to work on Thanksgiving. But when it's…

I worked on Thanksgiving for years when I was working at a movie theater. Almost all movie theaters are open 365 days a year. Almost all of their employees also work for minimum wage under conditions that were just as (if not more) hellish than when I worked in retail.

"you’re 300 sandwiches away from an engagement ring!" sounds like something you would say to your S.O. after building an engagement-ring safe out of 300 sandwiches that must be eaten in order to acquire said ring.

I feel for the girl. But if I could talk to her, I'd tell her not to let the outpouring of hatred swallow the accomplishment. I'd encourage her to look back at the things people said about people, big and small, who were the first to challenge stereotypes. From an interracial couple that got married in the 1950s to…

Why can't parents like this have a freaking conversation with their kids? Posting photos of your children in their "get-along shirt," holding a sign decrying their awfulness for "twerking," or making an idiot of yourself on social media in shorts, doesn't make you a good parent. The internet has provided many people…

I'm going to be on an Investigation Discovery show in December! The fact that I am super excited about this in no way means that my acting career is going nowhere!

I give my dad a lot of credit for not making a big deal about my honor or virginity or what I wore. Before I would go out on dates he was basically like "don't drink and drive" and "I'm not afraid of you dating, I feel for the guy who has to put up with you!" (this was lovingly/jokingly). Him not acting like all men…

Well, this goes to other research that suggests that when women are fertile they tend to want to bang "alpha males" - even if they are dickweeds - but outside their fertility time they want to bang less masculine dudes who are stable and reliable and exhibit more feminine traits.

I would cry too if I had Terry Richardson six inches from my face.

I know, right? After reading that, the whole thing made sense.

Excuse me I will not stand for insults to Anne of Windy Poplars. The Pringles! And that little boy she takes a picture of and then he dies! And Mrs. Gibson! And Rebecca Dew! And Katherine Brook's puppy!

Sometimes I wonder if they're just pissed off with the portrayal of Russia in Hetalia.

I'm only one state away and hereby volunteer to help out with the carpool.
