I heard it said once in Shade Court the axiom that Grace Jones does not throw shade. Although I believe the exact wording was “GRACE JONES does not throw shade!!”

Stella Bulochnikov is the only one guilting of shading....shading her cheek like she was contouring Mt Everest

Shade is too subtle for Uncle Joe. He’ll just straight out call you a dick.

I do infection control, and while refugees do have a higher risk theoretically, you’d be surprised how many not-expected-to-be-at-risk (white Americans) have positive PPDs and latent (non-infectious) TB and would never know except it was discovered through a work-up for something else (usually lung cancer).

“Commercial blood products” usually means distillations of complex compounds like Factor VII (the stuff that makes blood clot) that has medical applications for people who lack those compounds in their own blood. (Like hemophiliacs.) It’s incredibly valuable and expensive stuff, due to the amount of blood needed to…

There was one comment by Hillary at the Catholic roast thing that I’d love to see a ruling on. She pointed out Bloomberg sitting in the room and said “It’s a shame he’s not speaking tonight. I’m curious to hear what a billionaire has to say.”

While we’re talking about Hillary insulting (but not throwing shade at) Trump, this made me laugh so hard:

Wonder why comments like this never popup when people talk about sites that relate to George Washington or FDR...

You’re not wrong, but a flawed beginning is better than no beginning at all. No social justice / human rights movement has ever been an intersectional masterpiece from it’s earliest days, and most still aren’t.

I’m not sure why you even need to be a U.S. citizen to get married here. Americans get married in other countries all the time. I’m not sure how many international “destination wedding” toursists LA gets, though. 

Yeah, I’m not getting this. Why wouldn’t other government issued ID work, what’s so special about the birth certificate for a marriage license? And how would that prevent bigamy? Would a clerk even know if a Laosian BC is legit?

To the people trying to deny people born elsewhere the right to marry, to the people who are trying to deny healthcare to someone with likely terminal cancer whose wife has dutifully paid premiums for years, to the people who thinks it’s funny to make a sick man drive for hours to re-marry his wife of 2 decades, to…

“I made this about bigamy because I can’t just come out and say I hate brown people.”- Valarie Hodges (I’m paraphrasing here)

i had a thought though. the reason so many out-of-touch journalists and other writers toss the word ‘shade’ around is because it sounds fresh and hip and exciting and ‘down with the youths of today’, no? perhaps if we can start including, besides a simple judgement of ‘not shade’, an assessment of what the text in…
