This is going to be unpopular; Homer is a dick. He’s selfish and lazy and complacent. Yeah I know he does kind things occasionally but mostly he’s a dick. He’s the guy who treats you like shit, does one nice thing, and uses it as leverage the other 99% of the time. If Homer was a real guy, you would want nothing to do…

“On college campuses, The Communist Manifesto is one of the most frequently assigned texts.”
Me too. And then my next thought is of how badly we have failed them.
I can’t tell you how much the actions of our nation’s teens these past few days have renewed my hope for the future. The kids are all right.
Okay but can we talk semantics? Is it because I am an old that these are yoga pants:
I can’t work out in sweatpants because I like to feel, um, contained while working out, haha. I like the support workout leggings give, especially when doing some higher impact stuff.
She’s got it all wrong: Sweatpants are awesome for regular life, but terrible for working out. There’s too much fabric, so increased friction. Plus, when you sweat, they take forever to dry. Sport tights/leggings are the far superior choice for working out, from a practical POV.
Wait, am I the only one watching The West Wing over and over pretending it is real life?
Honestly I don’t think that would be a great way to write out the character. Our medical needs get stigmatized enough as it is without our own version of “dead lesbian syndrome.”
It is not like you need to buy her margarita mixer or popcorn though.
Maura decided to go through with the surgeries. Dies.
Maybe if you’re tired of hearing about American issues, you should try reading less American based content? Cause this would be the equivalent of me going to a BBC website and telling Brits to quit moaning about Brexit.
Maybe I’m an asshole for saying this but...
Do not know if this is true, but I read yesterday, that kids from Marjory Stoneman High were tweeting as the shooting and lock down was going on. And kids from other high schools with past shootings were replying to them telling them what to do - telling them places they had hid to survive, how they got out of their…
I flipped the script one time and ask them the same questions they asked me (including, “where is your family really from”). He eventually said that his family was Ireland. So I told him to go back to Ireland so that he could be surrounded by a sea of shiny white faces.
Same, but I’ve dug in now:
One time a guy just straight up asked me if I was “here legally”. But the messed up part was that he seemed like a decent guy. He was a friend of a friend and was just trying to make conversation. I believe I responded “Are you?”. He seemed embarrassed and changed the subject.
Americans are weird about where they came from. My parents aren’t from this country, and I travel a lot. I’ve met many Americans who claim to be Irish, German, French, Swiss, etc., but never any “undesirable” countries. Then I’ll ask something about where because I visited X town or I’ll say something in that native…
I’m an American-born child of Chinese immigrants. While Bari’s comments (and subsequent “if you were offended, that says more about your intentions than mine!!!” response) were disappointing, to any POC, especially Latinix and Asian POC, this is exactly 0% shocking. We get othered all the time, even in the country of…
