I lost all respect for their expertise on the topic as soon as I saw the lead picture. Who on earth dealing with period poops would wear overalls.

All of this! Art history major here. I absolutely loved all the classes I took...just hated everyone else in the major and their condescending views towards anyone that didn’t grow up in NYC and travel the world (grew up in the Midwest, and did eventually travel). And all their constant frowns and disapproval of…

I went to art school and I completely agree with this. I didn’t stick around in that world too long after college because I was tired of my non-aloof attitude being met with dead stares and snarky comments. I was fired from an art gallery for being “too eager” (aka enthusiastic) when visitors came around and asked…

You know those Somalis are just like those Jamaicans! Last night I had some jerk liver with injeera, the national dish of the Jafaican Somali.

They are importing a bunch of snappy tendencies into instagram. I am hoping they do it in a way that I can avoid seeing it and/or interacting with it, UNLIKE their algorithm time traveling mess of my feed.

I write emails like this for a living (I’m a content marketing copywriter). Hands down, a team has sat and written these emails, edited them, checked for voice. Chelsea is probably legit a worker in the office, but likelihood of her personally writing them is very low. I write the emails my CEO “sends” as marketing…

Ditto to everything except hip huggers. I have a freakishly high waist so pants designed to fit around my hips just work better on me, as mine are where they’re supposed to be. But oh god yes, the shoes and the funky makeup colors.

JUST THE SHOES. Just the goddamn shoes. Bring back all the chunky black shoes, the pilgrim buckles, the flatforms, the creepers, the boots. ALL OF THE SHOES!

My takeaway also. I feel like most fashion is just trolling me at this point. “HOT FOR 2017: picture this... a dress... but we cut the fabric out of all the parts where most humans have squishy flesh (“fat”), and replaced it with a) nothing or b) mesh!!!”

If I have too see an undershot of a 16 year old’s butt one more time I’m going to lose it.

I know this (literally) pales in comparison, but I remember how bummed out I used to be as a kid when the dolls/characters/avatars options never had my red hair (Merida wasn’t around. Ariel is the closest I ever got!).

Counterpoint-

There are a lot of children in the system with multiple disabilities, but I’m not sure about the specifics around your question. I’ve worked with kids who have life threatening health conditions, and the children and families go through so much. I’m not saying that their lives are not worth living, but I think that…

Haha, that seems familiar. I think it’s ok for all spaces to be inclusive but groups that are traditionally excluded need a space where they are explicitly welcome (even if everyone is implicitly welcome). It’s the all lives matter v. black lives matter nonsensical debate. Of course all lives matter but we don’t tend…

Agreed, I hardly drink at all and the smugness in this article was tangible.

There already is a defined rule to staying mostly sober at parties- 1 drink/hour. That is a relaxed drinking pace that will keep most people sober enough to not be weird. My office holiday party lasts ~4 hours, I’m not drinking 2 drinks over 4 hours, unless I’m planning to get up and go the gym at 5AM the next day.

Dude, I can’t believe people are trying to call you an alcoholic and just wanted to say I totally agree with you. This article is judgemental as hell and basically says that everyone who has more than two drinks becomes a tiresome drunk that you can look down on as you sip your glass of water and then smugly go home.…

Same thing goes for a lot of those "low calorie" dairy products...
