I’m aware that she’s from Georgia, that wasn’t why I referenced her. She has a history of making inflammatory statements about harassing people with masks, telling crowds to scare off vaccination proponents with guns, and she herself very proudly harassed AOC in the workplace. The deranged father in the story has…

Parent in this school system here. This is the same school district where Marjory Stoneman Douglas is—since the shooting there in 2018, all of the schools have armed police (not just the school resource officers they used to have) and this kind of security is pretty typical, especially at the high schools.

While I take your meaning, there is a weird trend among the anti-mask crowd of filming themselves harassing kids going to school trying to convince them to take their masks off, or just so they can post to facebook and moan about how “bad” things are regarding schools and masks. Just based on the girl’s comment I’d…

This guy is ridiculous, but I feel badly for his daughter; it sounds like it’s his decision to keep her from wearing a mask and continuing to drop her off at school, expecting her to be refused entry is terribly cruel on his part. He’s using this humiliation of her as fuel for his terrible ideology and that’s just as…

Florida Man here has learned the central lesson of the previous four years: The most important freedom is the freedom to use violence or threats of violence to make other people do what you want.

Should we expect a follower of cadet bone spurs to be anything but a feckless coward?

Apparently this was day 5 of him pulling this. Security was basically waiting for the predicted tantrum to get physical.

I don’t think that’s illegal.

Absolutely.  That baby is still chasing that dollar.

My mom: I need to feel like I’m doing something! I can’t just sit here while Trump takes over!

Memento’s is really good on so many levels

Yea, I don’t consider myself a “hardcore catholic” but I am a practicing Catholic, and my church has been extremely strict about masking, social distancing, and working hard to encourage and help people get vaccinated. It’s a really progressive Jesuit church but still…this isn’t her being a religious nut, this is just…

Yeah that song has always been creepy.

Yup and you don’t have to take the “groupies” words for it. They put it in their songs for all to hear. Even if you are the sort of asshole who thinks “groupies” are subhuman. A quick glance at the discography of the famous musicians of that era shows what a creepstastic hellscape music was at the time.

agree, just commented similarly

I mean, sure, but I’d wager there are degrees to this. I’m sure she is sadly accustomed to significant amounts of bodyshaming on a regular basis. There were some insults she was receiving specifically involving race that had to have been extremely hurtful to hear.

The advice is well-intentioned, and I do hope she is…

All it takes is one off day for the negative stuff to pull you under. 

I follow her on Instagram and she is putting herself out there all the time and seemingly in control of ignoring the assholes. But I’m sure the assholes are constant and generally she’s comes off as fiercely strong and positive. I’m sure sometimes it hits her harder than others and I think it’s OK for her to share…

I feel for Lizzo but at the same time, it seems like the overwhelming majority of comments are positive and it’s impossible to have 100% positive feedback or to control everyone on the internet and eliminate the assholes. The only thing we can control is our own reactions and the way we engage with social media and if…

I regularly use pot for medicinal purposes, as with C-PTSD, Generalized and social anxiety disorder pretty much make me non-functional in my day to day life. I tend to stick with edibles and tinctures as I can’t handle the coughing that comes with vaping or smoking, and, holy crap. In my experience edibles tend to be…
