Grammarian Hot Take:

She “became deceased?” Yeah, no. She was shot and killed by the cop.

This seems like one of those ideas that someone pitched to the Mayor as a splashy policy that would generate a lot of “tough love” good publicity, but lord will it have massive amounts of unforeseen (or completely foreseeable from some peoples’ points of view) consequences. For instance; disabled children won’t get a…

I have long thought that Blue Ivy was a nice name unfairly lumped in with terrible celebrity baby names.

If the person who can fire you begins a statement with “I hope you can” 99.9% of the population knows that really means “Do this or you’re fired” and we know this is what Trump meant BECAUSE THEN HE FIRED HIM FOR NOT DOING IT.

When I was a kid my mom used to tell me that she knew she had started getting old when people took the same shit that had been around forever, brought it back, and called it a new name and got a whole new generation excited for it.

Why is it “millennial pink” when I’m pretty sure this is the exact shade of every bathroom that hasn’t been renovated since the 50's?

This isn’t justice for Tamir.

Right? Like... that’s a good thing?

That choice of words is so disturbing. Couldn’t have said something like “We should preserve the privacy and decency of the deceased”

Saying that Native Americans take anything for granted seems like one of the most outrageously offensive things you could possibly let pass through your lips.

This is outrageous. And yet, so typical. He would NEVER say that to a white man. I don’t think he would say it to me, a respectable-looking white woman. And she asked a legitimate question. GOD WHAT A TOOL.

We need a special prosecutor, like yesterday. No way the guy who is going to replace Comey will be independent in the Russia investigation.

He absolutely deserved to be fired for what he did to Clinton. But let’s not kid ourselves that he was fired for that reason. He was fired because Trump is afraid that Comey is on to something. This is beyond Watergate levels of corruption. We need a special independent prosecutor to oversee that investigation. …

I have no love for Comey but trump firing the head of the FBI while being investigated by the FBI is very troubling. I believe the last president who did this was Nixon so...

Agree wholeheartedly. Also, we need to steal this language; next time the GOP tries to pass an anti-abortion TRAP law and has nothing but men standing around at the bill signing, Planned Parenthood needs to come back and complain about how “the regulated community” (women) is not allowed to be part of the process.

I come from a family that is riddled with people who threaten to/succeed in killing themselves on a regular basis. I don’t have any personal experience with suicidal depression, so take this for what it’s worth, but I thought the fact that the 13 reasons were all other people and not “and finally, as #13, I have a…

“Hannah’s story is still very much not finished”
Also not finished: the stories of the adolescents in emergency departments since this show coming out who have attempted or have planned out their suicide. Their stories aren’t finished, and then they watched this show, and they spiraled. Did they have other stuff going…

Thank you for that last part- I’ve been dealing with this story for a long time now, since it was a very popular book in my class for years. I don’t like that it makes suicide something that a person can do to get back at others, and the whole tapes thing just emphasizes that. I think most read it as a tragedy a la…

I went to go see Kingdom on Heaven with my father because I was so infatuated with Orlando Bloom. I do believe the plot was lost of 14 year old me.
