I’d love for you to elaborate more, as the other person asked, but I think I understand what you’re saying. As an honest response, I personally have fallen into the trap of “looking down” on traditional woman’s work. I had a stay at home mom but I considered her the exception to the rule. I thought she was worthy of…

From the same guy who said "fuck the youth of Chicago" when he refused to fund his own damn charity? And Kim may be divorcing him but she took his side back then and made fun of the people running the organization for not being as famous as her and said she'd hand over the organization to her kids. These people don't…

One major thing I'd love to see regarding police reform is if a police department actually does the right thing and fires an officer for wrongful behavior, they should just be allowed to fucking do it! I'm all for unions and there need to be protections for people fired without cause, but this is absurd. A police…

My friend did a home birth, for the sole reason of fearing a hospital drug test that would show she had used marijuana. I was terrified for her, especially because she's not close to a hospital and god forbid something went wrong during labor. But she was equally terrified of having her baby taken away from her.…

Not really a great comparison. Politicians think/discuss reelection almost immediately after they’re elected. And if he’s not going to run, that’s something she needs to know ASAP. I wouldn’t expect them to give details on their private conversations regarding that, but if they really have never discussed it, that’s a…

Uh what? This makes no sense. A high school can't force you to take out a loan or go to college. No parental involvement? So parents who had enough money to pay for their kids college, had their kids come home saying they took out a huge loan with no co-signed?

I appreciate your comment. People often try to dumb down addiction into buzz words and phrases but addiction is different from person to person. I tried 12 steps for a year and it was not helpful and at times detrimental to my recovery. Addiction CAN be a lifelong battle for many but certainly not for everyone,…

Seriously? Not even close. Allen Walker in no way defends rape. The point of the research is to keep pedophiles from raping. Having an urge to hurt someone and actually doing it are very different things

The point is these people don't WANT to harm a child. That's why they look for help. People don't choose to have these feelings. And after years and years of never feeling comfortable to talk about these feelings with anyone, they can act out, even if they don't want to

Possibly dumb question but for paid leave, is that 100% on the business? Would the government help with that cost? I'm just thinking of certain industries where independently owned businesses are already struggling to compete with huge corporations who can afford paid leave (but choose not to). Also, at this point I'd…

God forbid Howard should use some of that $40 million Bezos' ex wife gifted them to keep their dorms mold free

Edit. I also see that betterhelp sells its users data. Even better! And it’s primarily text based, not even video chats. And while I hope they’ve changed, they didn’t use to require its “therapists” to actually be licensed therapists. And they were paying mental health professionals to refer clients to them. What a…

Can we talk about how the “therapy” Travis Scott is supposedly providing is a joke? In "partnering" with betterhelp, I'm assuming he's getting paid. I hope I'm wrong because if that's the case, that's disgusting for him to profit off this. Plus it's not specifically for people affected by what happened at Astroworld.…

Thank you. I've seen a lot of these types of comments and while on one hand I can understand why people are saying this show was no place for a child, I have to disagree. I was 9 for my first concert. But my parents were boomers so it was a Paul Simon/Bob Dylan show, not exactly mayhem. But the idea is the same. It's…

I'm all for family leave, but can we at least start with some damn paid sick leave? Everyone gets sick from time to time, not everyone has children. Or even getting paid for required jury duty? I live paycheck to paycheck and I had to miss a day for jury duty, and the 9 bucks the court gave me to buy myself lunch…

Do you honestly think that's why she wanted a divorce? Because he had an attractive costar?

I’m a little surprised by some of these comments regarding Harry and Billy Porter wearing dresses. For a site that loves to preach how gender is just some kind of societal invention, especially with regard to gender roles, it’s weird to see people complaining that these men aren’t wearing dresses for the “right”…

The reaction to the prescription side of this has only fueled fentanyl and ODs. We decided to engage in yet another war on drugs, this time prescriptions, and somehow didn't think there'd be unintended consequences. As opiate prescriptions dropped, OD deaths climbed significantly. People trying to buy a Percocet off…

I never said it was a zero sum game or that we shouldn't be upset by the things he said. No need to be sarcastic. People here are so unnecessarily mean to each other. But Dave is obviously loving all this attention and the coverage of this vs the lack of coverage of transphobia garbage said by right wing media…
