C’mon now, Judge Judy is like the Crypt Keeper. What is she, like 104?

Can we just legalize weed already so that cops can no longer use the faint whiff of it as justification for murder (Philando Castile) and sexual assault?

Do you know what’s really frustrating? All they have to do is say they smell marijuana.

Just to follow up....a friend of mine was once forcibly searched (unjustly) for drugs in a devolopping country with a reputation for human right violations. Did the police strip search her in the street? No, they took her to the hospital where trained medical professionals searched her. It was scary and demeaning,…

Do people regularly ride around town with marijuana in their vaginas? Why would they do that? I mean, if the police had serious cause to believe a young woman shoved drugs up her vagina, take her to the hospital! That would be cause for concern. If I thought someone was using marijuana as a tampon I’d be very…

This is why labor rights are essential. These are not “starter jobs” they are the jobs available and those who do them deserve a living wage.

I didn’t see anything on Jez to make my hair stand on end. I’m curious if I missed something blatantly ridiculous, or you simply just found comfort at the Root.

Personally, as an old white feminist, I find the Root constantly mocking whites that want to be better a reason just not to go there anymore. I shouldn’t be…

To all the commenters over on giz: see this is why you can’t be writing shit like this at work. Whether you agree with what he said or not, it’s a liability for the company.

Yeah especially if it wasn’t just like “oh mom’s a cooky one!”. It was more likely “mom’s high again”.

Yea, I think the point of that little anecdote was that her father was the stable one in her life who gave her a normal childhood and her mother was unstable-keeping her up to do odd things like putting Christmas lights on a palm tree at 2am.

Sorry but that part made me a bit sad for Billie. I don’t think the point was “geez, how great was that” but more of a reflection on how a child needs the stability of knowing a parent will come home at the same time every day and help with homework, not keep them up all night to shop at Sharper Image.

J-Law in particular gets cast in a lot of roles for which she’s way too young.

That’s the HORRROR.

All I saw was a 20 something with a man twices her age, which I could’t look past throughout the trailer. Hollywood agism/sexism is still alive and well

And yet, people completely ignore that what Dany is doing is logically sound.

I left this episode feeling meh (moreso than usual) about the Queen of Dragons. She’ll help defeat the White Walkers when Jon Snow bends the knee? Jesus christ enough already. All the badass dragons in the world can’t save her from being a myopic idiot.

They’re going to go at it like rutting dogs in heat only for Bran to show up an episode later and go “I’m the mystical Three-Eyed Raven who has had his mind expanded after Phil 101 this Semester and you are his aunt and technically he has a better claim to the throne than you.”

Yep. Jaime was looking at the last bit of wheat in Westeros, Tyrion too. I don’t why Daenerys didn’t just order her dragon a few feet left where the Lannister line was, they’re going to miss that food...

the Iron Bank guy would not commit their support of Cersei’s war until their repayment made it to the Iron Bank, which as we know from the epic end scene, it did NOT.
