ooh its become thousands of women now? and all syrian refugees look the same now to be so easily identified? how quaint.

Just shut up already. You have posted the same damn comment at least five times.

Hey ass-hat, how about you re-read my post and drop your xenophobic bullshit. The United States has a strong system in place for those fleeing the Syrian conflict. I praised Obama for welcoming refugees and for trusting our strong system.

I’m guessing that you also get 5 weeks paid vacation minimum, and at least a few days of training let year. Germans (and most of Europe as a whole) really are much more “family friendly”. We bleat about family values in the US while working and worrying the majority of people to death.

That sounds like a really sweet deal.
All of my cousin’s kids are now in school and I think they have a program there where they stay in school and do their homework. I am not sure, I have to ask my aunt. But it seems it’s pretty cool, kids socialize and do their homework and then their parents come pick them up and…

Honestly I always bring my lunch but my problem has always been that I have nowhere to eat it. I think that comments like yours, though, indicate a culturally American mentality we all seem to suffer from, namely “what’s good for you isn’t good for me.” Instead of applauding workers that try and stand up for their…

Shout out to all my fellow Jezzies who read “inexpensive Yankee candles” and thought about how you only get Yankee candles when they're on the clearance endcap at TJ Maxx.

Someone with authority over someone else should never be hitting on them. That’s not okay and there is no way for that to NOT feel like a threat. It may not be repeated but may be followed with a lot of passive aggressive bullshit that is impossible to prove. It may be repeated, but you suggest to someone that they…

Enforcing reasonable limits on free speech is what civilised societies do, both in the US and the UK. You can absolutely dispute where nations choose to draw those legal lines, but arguing that any and all restraints on expression are fascist is not practical, helpful or accurate.

Hate speech inciting violence innit

I dunno. I’m an American living in Germany right on the border it shares with France. We have a lot of Turks, but they were assimilated over time. Also, immigrants that came to America, my dad included, were super into dropping the old country values and language because this was their new life. They were Americans…

Yuuuuuup.

Yeah, the most compelling part of the story to me was always that the mermaid wanted to become human so she could have an immortal soul, rather than fade into the oblivion of sea foam upon death like the rest of her kind. But when she has the opportunity to kill the prince to save herself, she can’t do it: because she…

“Steatopygia” is a term that many consider to be at least “racist-ish.” Also, the “shelf booty” is not uncommon among Irish people. Neither is dark hair. “Black Irish”people are Irish. The idea that there are Black Irish suggests that there is such a thing as “Pure Irish.” It’s a load of nonsense.

I always wonder how much is just admiration - they are both fiercely intelligent people. Everyone’s marriage is based on different things - I wonder if the “romantic” aspect of things just takes a back seat to love of politics/ambition. Not saying it is a bad thing...just really interests me how that dynamic works.

Just posting to make everyone aware that Dolly Parton’s charity is an organization (https://imaginationlibrary.com/) where they provide free books to any child who asks, one book a month from birth to age five. It’s the best shit ever.

I recently put some stale homemade bread into the food processor to make breadcrumbs from the awesome stuff.

everybody is so judgey about them and clearly he is a challenge as a spouse. (no doubt, she is too!) but SO many pix of them show love in their eyes. look at him here!! what a great photo.

There, there little D(eutsche)force. I have suffered from the same pain but alas, mine was as a grown as woman and to this day I still CANNOT for the life of me make a proper batch!! I posted below about having to throw out the whole pan etc. *I hang my head in shame*
