I’ve heard from teens and those who work with teens that the able-bodied and neurotypical kids are nicer to the kids with disabilities these days. Like, they want to be their friend and build them up. This is anecdotal based on my city, of course, but I like to think that some of the anti-bullying campaigns have been

This culture of mass incarceration has so shaped our minds that when a judge, like Judge Persky in this case, undertakes a holistic sentencing analysis that accounts for both the victim and the convicted, we still insist on arbitrary, lengthy terms of incarceration as the response to crime.

I have recently discovered I have two friends that are very strongly anti-vaxxers. I genuinely don’t know what to do. Right now my two year old is up to date with his vaccines but he’s still too young for some and I don’t want him hanging out with their kids. And it feels awful because I deeply care for both ladies as

And the implication of “why did you drink so much?” is “this was preventable.” And if it was preventable, if she hadn’t drank so much, then it is her fault.

I am a woman and occasionally camp outdoors alone. Should I be raped for sleeping outside? Just making sure I don’t need to rig up some kind of anti-rape sleeping bag.

That is literally the definition of being an actor.

I felt like Mugatu when I read that quote! What reality is this guy living in where acting is not about pretending??

I think we should all pool our sofa change to buy this man a dictionary.

That glass is “smoking gun” evidence. A test of the wine combined with the video and eyewitnesses removes almost all reasonable doubt. He’s going down.

Can they test the drink to see what he put in it? That would be my only caution for saving it/not letting anyone drink/spill it

As a bona fide white person, this is probably my favorite joke of all time in history, ever.

I think you're right. Usually I’m all for expanding the roles of female characters, but it feels like a mistake here. The whole crux of them going to the other warren was so their society didn’t die out in a generation (well, they get the two ladies from the farm first, I think, but that’s not enough). If you take out

I cannot WAIT to hear their responses to the backlash.

Wow. I’m not sure whether to laugh or smash my head against my desk. I’m going to go with laugh, but feel guilty about it.

Hell, yes!

Shall we find your phobias and make fun of them?

I’m a labor and employment lawyer. The only minority categories straight white dudes find themselves in are those of disability and age discrimination. And every single one of them hates every single minority group right up until they have an accident or get old. At which point they are SO OFFENDED.
