I feel bad for her, but moreso for this kid. I understand the strong and human inclination to want to fight back and protect my own reputation, but it’s better to just take the high road and not show up to every fight you’re invited to. The dad is a drama magnet, and a reaction is what he wanted all along.

Agreed to this 100% - airport soo soo yucky in so many ways. I also don’t have or want children, and I think women should be able to breastfeed anywhere they feel comfortable, but I personally would always opt for the private space if it was an option. I already have naturally large boobs that attract unwanted…

I teared up as well, I couldn’t help it. She slayed this routine.

The group of people I was watching the halftime show with at one point were all like “Why don’t they just play ‘Clocks,’ and I was like - they did, it was just so boring you missed it.” And yes we were drunk.

I’m going to take this opportunity to bring back Julia Gillard’s awesome sexism speech from a few years back.

Wow, just watched that whole video over my lunch. Such a good speech and so thorough and fair. Our country really is so incredibly short sighted to not properly fund and train the police, but then accept that they have to hand out big settlements when something awful like this happens. Not to mention the cost to the…

I’ll vote for whoever gets the dem nomination, but I have to say - the Clinton could consider using a little more optimism. Everyone knows that politicians can’t deliver on all of their promises and ideals, but it’s a lot more attractive - especially for young people - to vote for someone who wants to have a…

This is a safe space haha :-D

Selena and Taylor, same. You can pry my Southwest Eggrolls from my cold dead hands. And yes, I deny that I go there to my coworkers haha.

Yeah this whole sexualizing and adult-ifying of The Muppets is just sad. I don’t want to see The Muppets drowning their sorrows at a bar, or The Muppets take on hookup culture — like there are already a million shows that handle adult comedy themes and do it better. The Muppets were always a little odd and sometimes…

A big aged VT cheddar cheese high five to that. I agree with all you said. And actually I hope that this will maybe open up some dialogue with the liberal bros about misogyny (a girl can dream...?)

I know I’m seriously sad that this is a problem. I live and grew up in Vermont, been voting for him for years, and Bernie is definitely not a bro of any kind. Why do bros have to co-opt and ruin everything?

The worst is when one of either camp points to the other side as the mysoginists - it’s like dum dum, you’re all terrible people.

Seriously digging deep for something pop culture to overanalyze today . . .

Thanks for this. I was debating leaving a comment saying that I don’t fear the guy or his music, I just think Macklemore is a corny try-hard at best, and a cynical d-bag capitalizing on current affairs at worst. I am also old and not versed in current hip hop culture or trying to be more “authentic” or whatever. I do…

Oh my god. I just gave you an empathetic heavy sigh.

I just got in a Facebook argument this morning about that dummy B.o.B. thinking the Earth is flat. The person I was arguing with said that “everyone’s entitled to their opinions” and I was like, “sure, but the earth being round is a fact” and then pointed him to an elementary school level article about the difference…

It’s going to be the same deal with “extreme” sports too - snowboarding, freestyle skiing (half pipe stuff), etc — anything where people fling themselves into the air to perform tricks. These kids start as “groms” which are 8-10 years old with the hopes they go pro someday. They fall trying to do all those tricks and…

Not to get all Dan Savage here, but I too have heard the Will and Jada rumors of course, and since they are staying together this long I tend to lean more towards them just both being bisexual with some sort of agreement/open relationship.

“I honest-to-god do not get parents like yours.” — You and me both, sister!
