Meanwhile, at JazzFest, even though it was the last day, I heard Zydeco, swamp rock, Kermit Ruffin’s tribute to Louis Armstrong and some gutbucket blues. I ate Shrimp and Grits, Shrimp Creole, Smoked Turkey and Alligator Sausage Gumbo, Begniets and Mango Freeze, washed down with iced and hot Cafe au Lait. I made a…

I hope they sue all those models too. I want all these POS to be made responsible for this, especially that little fratboy who orchestrated the whole thing. I don’t care if he scammed rich kids, he scammed people in the end. Finish him. It’s not like some random Instagram models were advertising the festival. It was…

“I was trying to explain that all hospitals are required by law to treat patients in need of emergency care regardless of their ability to pay and that the Republican plan does not change that,”

This story is such a great testament to both the emotional and the monetary costs of having uninsured people. It is cheaper to treat stage 1 colon cancer than stage 4. It is better for the economy to have people starting small businesses, launching successful freelance careers, etc. without having to worry about…

It’s always an ugly old white man...

“Actresses were routinely called “too fat,” “too ugly” and “too old.”

Can you have a series dedicated to a daily Fyre Fest update? This is never not funny.

My problem with the show is the fact that it never once discusses mental health.

I mean, what’s irresponsible (and what people are mad about) is less the bare fact that you depicted the act of suicide, and more that you depicted the act of suicide as a glamorous, romanticized event and portrayed it as effective revenge against the people “at fault” for her death.

Hot Take: They should have picked a uglier way to commit suicide. Blood in the water is romantic imagery

Exactly! And I can't fathom how people argue that some hypothetical happiness/regret outweighs actual lived happiness. I might regret not having a child someday, but I'm going to Tibet this year and I'll for sure have one of the most amazing experiences of my life—and I am able to take trips like that because I am…

I would live and die for all three of my children. Each one is precious in my eyes. I also wish I did not become a Dad. I'm not nearly as good at it as I had hoped. I feel like there is no refuge or sanctuary when things get really difficult. The peaceful moments either never happen or are far too short and few. …

I'd rather take the off-change that I'll regret not having them down the road ...than regret ever having them and be in an irreparable situation.

That's a really important point. I don't want children and neither does my husband, but I know that I'd love a child I made with him more than I can possibly understand. There's no one in the world I'd rather have children with than him. But I don't want children. It's a nuanced thing, for sure, despite how it's…

The though of having children petrifies me, for a number of reasons, but this one is pretty high on the list. What if I don't enjoy it or regret it? I like my quiet time, solitude and have a very independent nature.

Yuuuuuup.

Ohhh, was this the person who wrote the article that young people just need to stop expecting things? Because Boomers don't have absurd expectations? Or Gen Xers?

THANK YOU.

Given that you guys are the ones who wrote that fucking awful "Generation Y Yuppies" post above, I am really, really disinclined to give this more than a skim.

Older posts, most notably, the horrible "Why Generation Y Yuppies are Unhappy." That went around quite a bit, and thoroughly pissed off all of us who are working our asses off to get jobs that just aren't there and don't want to use our law degrees to work at McDonald's.
