Not even just Ms. Sheats. If you had asked the NRA if Ms. Sheats was a gun owner two weeks ago, they would have said absolutely. If you asked them now, they would say she was never a responsible gun owner, so it’s not fair to hold her actions against the responsible ones. It’s a beautifully circular argument.

Right? What kind of parent doesn’t see an 1180 SAT score and go, “Honey, I love you very much, but we need to be realistic about this.”

I heard that story. And republicans try to pretend these laws and policies are all about the safety of the women. Untrained or poorly trained practitioners are a much greater risk than not having wide hallways. Who do they think they’re fooling?

Thank you. Yes. I'm pretty disappointed in the vitriol thrown her way on here. What else was she supposed to say?

I'm gonna defend Winona. If he didn't abuse her he didn't abuse her, and she didn't throw Amber under the bus. I thought she was really diplomatic here.

For me it’s her overly rewarded mediocrity and victim complex and disingenuousness.

Winona Ryder has managed to stay so much prettier than Johnny Depp, her sanity seems to have bounced back too.

Re: Jenny Slate and Chris Evans

Study up on what happens to refugees who get let into countries without decent integration programs. It’s not pretty. Even in countries where there is no language barrier, they often end up in poor economic situations.

According to the CBC, Canada has taken in 600,000 refugees. That’s a lot. And it’s commendable. But it’s a massive undertaking if you’re going to have an entirely open door policy, and different from taking in about half a million.

I keep seeing Minions posts. I always want to say “You do realize that the Minions are complete fucking morons, right? That’s how you want to identify yourself? Really?”

You know what’s worse than a “follower” (how cute, are you excited to start 7th grade next fall)? A snotty little pisspants who never passes up a chance to whine about what he thinks is stupid.

Does it really count as understanding when they tweet she was replying to said “Pound plummets after big win for Leave in Sunderland”? I mean, it doesn’t seem clear to me that she understand how or why exactly the exchange markets were reacting to the news. The word choice of “allowing” is so strange.

He can't even with this.

You’re being too generous! These weren’t predictions—she was merely trying to parse the information flying past her and failing almost completely. The Sunderland result was a big win by 30k but ultimately meaningless, especially so in a vote that’s not carried by districts but a vote-by-vote count. She misunderstood…

Idiot hates internetisms

Does Tom look like a man full of regret in that picture? I feel like he looks like a man who is rethinking every life choice he has ever made in that picture.

Oh, child. You didn’t even crack the top 10% in high school. Your alumni’s network was never going to be your problem.

And that’s one of many good reasons you need affirmative action—to counterbalance the enormous advantage that legacy candidates have.

I have never once heard someone say “get the facts before you judge someone” and then subsequently received any facts that would change my judgment. The only fact that seems to matter is that they don’t feel like they did anything wrong, and therefore they didn’t.
