Why do people still think that lifetime welfare is a thing? 80% of people, and that’s all people including those infirmed and disabled, rely on federal welfare programs (Medicaid, SNAP, supplemental income assistance, etc.) for  less than 2 years. The major outlier is housing and rental assistance.

“What am I am against: Abortion (outside of rape, or medical causes”

Except it literally always turns out to mean “I believe the government should spend less money on social welfare programs”

No I’m one of those “poor people deserve health care and a decent standard of living” people

So you’re ok with gays getting married but you don’t give a shit about poor people. Got it.

Most on the right are a bunch of safe space snowflakes...who only talk tough online...

I just wonder a) whether the Ds will ever have the presidency, house and senate again and then b) if there is a way that we can get gorsuch and kavanaugh off the court without completely destabilizing the government.

This is the problem with GoFundMe. It is a really shitty way to care for people, it is a complete crapshoot if your page will get attention and if it does, and you get a crazy amount of money, there’s no guidance on how it should be spent. Our society would be massively better off with Universal Basic Income,…

It’s staggering! She killed a man and got away with it, but somehow SHE’S the victim here? FFS, she got hired again and given a gun and a badge, and now she gets to make money off this story while four kids have to live without their dad?! Totally fucking nauseating.

An 16 IS NOT THAT HUGE, YOU GUYS. I’m a 16 and I am NOT THAT HUGE. A li’l chunky, sure. Strong thighs, yeah. A little extra fat, well, yeah - this is America, dammit! But a size 16 should not be an impossible unicorn size to find clothes in.

Um, did you see the preview of their plus size capsule collection with Universal Standard? It is the most ugly ill-fitting cheap looking mess. Pass.

I live near him. He does live in complete isolation. He literally never leaves his house. And I agree. He’s despicable. What he did to Elizabeth, disowning his own daughter, letting a staff take the fall, trying to get a dirty diaper to do a DNA test... Despicable. His poor kids, including the most recent one. I feel…

We had to read The Scarlet Letter during junior year (among other things) and Catcher in the Rye during senior year (again, among other things).  I think it was pretty safe to say that most of my class disliked, it not outright hated, The Scarlet Letter.  I understood the point of the novel, but a modern retelling or…

“If anyone is looking for a good lawyer, I would strongly suggest that you don’t retain the services of Michael Cohen!”

This story made no mention of a Clinton or Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Krueger must be getting the shakes by now.

Agreed - these “monuments” should just be torn apart, melted down, and scrapped. They were cheaply built, put up en-masse, and used to intimidate people of this nation for over a century. They have no value other than their age, and in this time and place? Change is what will move us forward. If there are truly…

I feel like doctors over prescribe the pill for everything, like Union says. Painful periods? Pill. Heavy bleeding? Pill. No period? Pill. Instead of getting to the root of the issue, they just tell you to go on the pill. (And, to be fair, having gone through a lot of diagnostic tests that insurance did not pay for,…

Here, I’m a lawyer, so let me translate this into English:

If she comes to the cookout, I can guarantee Auntie Sadie will get drunk and she will catch those hands. All we could do is stand by and let her know she had it coming.

Maybe you could start by teaching yourself how to think..
