No wonder our presidential candidates seem to be taking notes from Mayor Quimby on The Simpsons.

True story - my mom and grandma have curly hair. My grandma had always gotten shit at jobs for her hair. When she finally got a union job, she wore a straight wig for her entire probationary period (a few months?) ad then the day after her probation was up, she wore her real hair to work and they couldn't say a damn…

It’s straight up insanity. Kid Electron’s classmate started up with an all-star cheer program, and her mom’s been putting pressure on me to sign up Kid as well. It would cost more per month than her school tuition, and that’s not including the mandatory practice uniforms, two performance uniforms and assorted poms…

I’m so tired of my curly hair not being “nice” or “professional” enough. It’s so ridiculous that curly hair has some kind of weird value attached to it.

This is my all-time favorite bullshit controversy in years. I am over here cackling with glee at the absurdity of it all

I still haven’t decided which part is my favorite. The fact that he is giving Starbucks business, money, and publicity all in the name of “tricking them”. Or, the fact he thinks he is “forcing” baristas to say Merry Christmas against their will, when I’m assuming many of them would actually identify as Christian. He…

If I were a barista, I was just write “Mary Xmas” and send them on their mary way.

I grew up down the street from Josh. He was definitely raised in a conservative Christian home, but seemed nice and generally friendly, unlike the hateful and angry adult he has become. It saddens me to see that this is how Christians are being represented to the world. Also, what does it matter if my latte cup has a…

And other offended Christians have taken to writing “Merry Christmas” on their cups themselves. So their big protest against the evil Starbucks is to...give them money and write on garbage.

I’ll only accept coffee if it comes in this cup:

Job 5:31: and lo the Lord didst punish Job by forcing him to drink only the coffee left in the Starbucks at 9:00PM, and wouldst not allow him to have a fresh cup.

All the stars.

The cognitive dissonance is basically bouncing off the walls here....

John 6:55

Remember kids: Black Lives Matter is a bunch of whiners who are looking for reasons to be offended. The real oppression is a lack of Christmas iconography on your coffee cups.

I don’t know. They may have a point. Those cups don’t look anything like the ones Jesus drank his Gingerbread Lattes out of.

Please show us on the Semantics Doll where the moving activism of college students hurt you.

As a black student at the University of Missouri, I can't tell you how amazing it has been to see how the athletic department and students of all colors coming together for this.

Isn’t she also the one they sent to a republican summit or something? I feel like this worker is abused.
