Just FYI everyone she is not the first nor will she be the last white woman to pick up someone else’s baby, play with them for a while, and kick them out of the house when they are done.

JOAN DID NOT DO THE TYPO, KIM KARDASHIAN DID THE TYPO!

Listen, there are valid reasons to criticize the Kardashians, but are you seriously gatekeeping a fucking horse because you are descended from Dutch people?

What?  She didn’t have to go to Beaumont; her insurance surely would have paid for her to go somewhere else.  What are you all talking about?  This isn’t a single-payer issue.

This isn’t really a problem with single-payer or health insurance, though.  The woman wasn’t rejected because she couldn’t pay for care.  This is about racial biases in healthcare, and simply switching to single payer doesn’t solve that problem.  That’s something that needs to be addressed directly.

I agree that healthcare is a critical issue, but this piece isn’t about that. This derailing of a legitimate issue that predominantly impacts women is one of the reasons many Warren voters sour on Bernie. I also think it’s one of the reasons why progressives can’t effectively build coalitions. We need a new culture on…

Great article, the focus on capitalism and feminism really gives context to the history of the wedding industry and where we have come today.

There is no worse opening in in journalistic writing that “everyone/everything is/does X thing” because it immediately causes the reader to consider all of the many exceptions that they will inevitably be aware of in their own lives.

I was thinking the same thing, the list is pretty much anywhere on earth where the hell are people supposed to get married? 

Everyone’s wedding looks the same on Instagram. There’s a barn, church, hotel, museum, beach, or backyard,

The details are that they’re entitled assholes

Entitled asshole car company that makes cars for entitled assholes, acts like an entitled asshole. Details at 11

When you spend all day fixing other people’s cars, you don’t really want to do more than the bare minimum on your own. The employee lot of our service department is a testament to this ideology.

Being the innocent that I am, for a few seconds I thought this was some funky mangled U-joint.

Goddammit.

Even in brown...it speaks to me.

You tell those bastards at Toyota that we need the Gr Yaris, but also the Corolla touring sports wagon

So I had to look this guy up (“author” is thrown around a lot). He is a health insurance lobbyist who writes for The Federalist, Ben Domenech’s* online right-wing rag.

Peopke don’t “turn to food” or a life of crime they're trying to manage living and coping with horrible shit without having been taught any tools to do so. People in general barely have coping skills as it is, and most of them aren’t healthy. But when our entire society stigmatizes mental illness, it’s no wonder…

To be fair, that’s not just the show. Almost anyone who does any kind of get-thin-quick regimen (including the surgical options) will put the weight back on within 5 years unless other things change too. The problem is that everything around weight loss in our society is so results-driven that no one wants to look…
