+100. It’s like it’s impossible for some people here to imagine that others who share their political opinions might engage in reprehensible actions.

For crying out loud, everyone, stop crying “false flag.” The solution to this is not paranoia or finger pointing.
United Airlines isn’t a government agency, so there’s usually not going to be any First Amendment problem with it limiting passengers’ speech.
Bracing myself for the internet outrage but perhaps the pilot got word from an uncomfortable flight attendant after checking in an Amanda Stevens and being presented with an almost 6 foot tall dark skinned person with five’o’clock shadow, hairy arms, an upsidedown American flag shirt with an anarchy logo on the arms…
weed is pretty important for philosophical, criminal justice, and economic reasons. it may play an important role in curbing our opioid crisis:
I am your roommate. I also use men’s body wash and men’s deodorant and get my hair cut at the Hair Cuttery. Sometimes I think I don’t know how to lady, but then I realize that I’m just really cheap.
Ummm... I’m not sure you’ve got this right. At the end you say: “white guy with world’s most disgusting dreadlocks can work as an engineer.”
I didn’t have to commute on public transportation that much when I was pregnant, thank god. But I did have the lovely experience of women insisting I go to the front of the line in the ladies’ room, many times. Conferences, concerts, you name it. Sometimes I didn’t even have to go that badly! It was so touching, got…
I got on a train when I was about 8.5 months pregnant and absolutely enormous. All the dudes sitting in the easy access seats (where there’s actually a sign saying they have to get up for preggos, old folks or the disabled) just buried their heads in their newspapers. So I loudly addressed them as a group and said,…
Obviously there are people who can give up their seat who don’t, but please be mindful of passive aggressiveness toward those you think should get up. I have a chronic medical condition but my external appearances look like a young, healthy woman. I need sit and it’s very painful to stand when there are no seats. I…
Strollers are the fucking devil, to be fair. Except for the little cloth ones for toddlers that fold up like beach chairs, the standard stroller nowadays is built like fucking Range Rover.
When I was pregnant with my first I had to catch a bus. It was the hottest week in NYC in 100 years. I was VERY pregnant and huge. A middle-aged woman and her two granddaughters had occupied the bench to wait. This bus took FOREVER. Eventually I started swaying. At this point, an older Greek grandma type comes up to…
While we’re at it, we should also ban the following:
I want them in smaller races to prove their platform. You say you are are for X, Y, and Z policies....then show that and show you understand how to many those policies happen by getting people in at the state and local level and introduce legislation that helps further those platforms. It’s one thing to say you really…
I am voting for Hillary, no doubt. And half of me completely agrees with Samantha Bee. I don’t think I’d risk my vote for a 3rd party candidate even if I liked them better. But at the same time, isn’t it bad for democracy to want to stifle these people? Yes, they are not going to win this time, but maybe in the long…
That’s blatantly false and completely illogical.
The blame should always go to people who didn’t vote first, then those who vote for the party that they don’t belong too. Never with the people who vote with their heart and mind.
You don't get to pretend that the moral highground should be silenced and not something to strive for.
Now I feel bad that my only association with Aleppo is the pepper. I’m sure I’ve seen it in the refugee context but it didn’t register.
Without delving into the specifics of abortion, the premise that the definition of murder cannot be contingent on circumstance is flat out wrong. Practically every legal code delineates different types of killing by considering the circumstance. Intent murder is different than intentional manslaughter is different…
