Few things in life are as profoundly disappointing as being vegan, telling your friends “It’s fine, if there’s nothing I can eat I’ll just have fries,” and then being confronted with a bunch of fancy housemade ketchups. I would like a bottle of Heinz, please. Not chipotle tomato sauce, not bourbon tomato sauce, not…

None of this is accidental. They were brutally efficient at separating the children from their parents in the first place. Any failure to reunite them is not due to a lack of competence, but a lack of will. They don’t even consider these people human, so why would they go to much trouble to reunite them?

The administration literally stole a baby and...maybe not quite sold, but certainly delivered, that baby to strangers. But it’s the immigrants who are the human traffickers according to these fascist fucks.

Judging the competence of an administration by the competence of its figurehead is a mistake. His role is to rile up a crowd, not to do the actual work of evil. That is left to his lieutenants - the ones actually in charge. It’s not safe to be grateful for fickle, weak-minded men like Trump when there are John Boltons…

All of the kids in my apartment complex run around screaming all damn day and I have called the police on them exactly zero times because that’s what kids fucking do. (Add that to the fact that I don’t even believe this girl was “screaming” because that would be a really ineffective sales tactic. She was probably just…

Ah yes, noted proponent of civility and not bothering white people, the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. I fondly recall his Letter from Birmingham Jail, in which he wrote such things as, “Injustice anywhere is no reason to bother people at dinner time,” and, “Justice too long delayed is just the price you have to pay…

Wherever progressives have stood up and shown up, they’ve actually been winning at a remarkable clip.

There sure are a whole lot of people here who don’t seem to be aware that any Clinton nomination to SCOTUS would have been to the right of every liberal on the court, up to and possibly including Kennedy.

It’s been a real bad day for separation of church and state at SCOTUS. Not only did they rule that banning people because of their religion is fine and dandy, they also ruled that making clinics pretending to have medical licenses admit they don’t have medical licenses is a violation of the First Amendment but forcing…

people are just going to have to trespass and get those kids out of there

If there is a God, I pray that it will show them no mercy at all.

“First they refused service to the Nazis, and I spoke out, calling for civility. Then they refused service to the Nazi collaborators, and I spoke out again, calling for civility. Then they refused service to the Nazi enablers, and I couldn’t eat at my favorite restaurant anymore.” - Chuck Schumer

In Japan people would assume you are a criminal because you have tattoos. You would be banned from gyms and spas, and it would be difficult if not impossible for you to find employment. There would be considerable societal pressure on you to not have tattoos. As a result, most Japanese people do not have tattoos.…

Technically there is a biological aspect of being transgender. Transgender people’s brains have a similar activation structure as the gender with which they identify. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2018/05/180524112351.htm

There’s such a huge difference between arguments like yours and pillbinge’s that are essentially trying to be accommodating of the differently-gendered while acknowledging the reality of gender issues but taking a contrary-to-the-mainstream view, and those of...mostly everyone else who’s just being hateful.

If you get followed by a staff writer, you’re ungrayed forever (or until you’re banned/unfollowed by that person). If you get starred or replied to by an ungrayed person, you are ungrayed for that comment. Most of the ungrayed trolls you see are ungrayed only for that comment/thread because an ungrayed commenter took…

As is the currently top-ranked thread.

Yes, fine, theoretically there could be malicious code in a banner ad, which means you’d also need to be running an ad blocker.

This is another vulnerability that requires you to fall for a phishing attack before it can be used. I know it’s still a best practice to keep everything updated and locked down, but let’s face it: if you’re falling for phishing emails, you’ve got much bigger problems.
