Thank you!! I have said before I love Bernie’s ideas but I can’t stand the messenger. I loved Elizabeth Warren’s campaign. She said the exact things Bernie stands for but she knew it wasn’t her time this election cycle. And certainly she was right to acknowledge the role sexism played and the bad treatment she got at…
Those aren’t winner take all states. They’re just states that Sanders is so unpopular in that he can barely clear the line of viability. And no, it’s not a little funny that southern states with large black populations get counted in the primary. Nor would it be very funny if they weren’t.
Sanders supporters probably should have thought a little bit harder on whether supporting the guy that Democratic women probably still harbor a great deal of resentment toward for 2016 might have unintended (if easily predictable) consequences.
I work in a lab, so I see a lot of gross shit on the daily but most of the time it’s not from my coworkers. I do have one coworker who insists on clipping her fingernails while sitting at her desk in a shared office.

Excellent article. I am getting married and the whole process has me feeling so anxious. Honestly, I feel like I’ve failed as a feminist. I wanted to have a nice celebration with friends and family but it just feels impossible to have any sort of feminist wedding - like the entire tenets and foundation of marriage is…
If Warren does nothing else but destroy Bloomberg's candidacy, she will have performed a great service to the country.
IDK I thought the “sweeping reform candidate with ACTUAL FUCKING STEP-BY-STEP PLANS” was a pretty great niche but what do I know
I’m okay with this if it means the rich are healthy when it comes time to eat ‘em.
When I was growing up in the 70's and 80's, ALL healthcare was like the kind your 200 dollars a year pays for. It was expected and normal. The fees for visits were reasonable, and there were still a dwindling number of doctors who did house calls as well.
fuck this. We don’t need more for-profit “wellness” bullshit peddling to the already well-off. We need health care that ensures that everybody can go to the doctor when they need to. We need a healthcare system where, for example, the guy I saw in the waiting room last time I was at the orthopedist doesn’t have to put…
I really thought Cats would be the death knell for Rebel’s career. Or, I hoped. Her bits were far and away the worst in Cats - I’m so tired of her adlibs which are always the same and just not funny.
+1 for the zillion times you’ve spoken to a person who says they’re fiscally conservative but then tries to reassure you/themselves they’re not actually horrible with “but I’m liberal on social issues”. Cool, how many times have you acted on those liberal social views and voted for a Democrat?
Woooow, I can’t imagine being a big fan of someone and then having a catty throwaway comment I made featured in a documentary about how mean people made them need a mental health break. I would be mortified and feel like a total asshole! It’s just a reminder to be thoughtful in how we talk about people, even when we…
Read the Ask A Manager blog. Anytime you see a post about how an employer treats you like family, you’ll see a letter about unreasonable demands and blurred boundaries. And yet those same employer's will not think twice about firing you if they need to.
Her husband’s ex-wife. Sounds like a classic case of Nightmare Ex, ratcheted up several levels.
I don’t know how many of these teachings are “scriptural”. They all look like american Puritanism disguising itself as Christianity to me.
Being in debt is okay. That’s how leveraging works.
