This isn’t a white thing. No one said a snitch is a hero. Necessary, but not a hero. I’m all for criminal justice reform. It’s an issue that is vastly is underrepresented the political world on both sides. But the “snitches get stitches” culture is just plain wrong any way you slice it. You’re allowing criminal…

I want them to not suck, is all.  Not too much to ask.

Lol @ ‘rat fink’. Thanks for chiming in, Mr. Cagney.

Don’t shame “snitching”. Exposing criminals is in the interest of society as a whole, and we want more people to come forward, not less. Yes, we’re talking about a garbage person, but the information he provides is valuable. And there is nothing valuable, or even moral, in remaining loyal to a criminal gang. So, don't…

Literally, you can’t bridge to not smoking anything? In 6 years?

Ok, but as someone who works in pharma, specifically in the drug development side of things, this is a pretty standard response to unexplained deaths and serious adverse events directly linked to a product. Just because vaping is cool* doesn’t mean that industry caution should be thrown out of the window at the…

To be fair, I have known a few people who successfully quit cigarettes after transitioning to vaping. The difference, though, is that they didn’t keep vaping. They used vaping to transition away from smoking completely and now abstain from both which is surely a lot healthier than replacing one form of addiction with…

The youth tobacco use rate has been on a downward trend for decades, until e-cigarettes became common. It increased by about 40% between 2017 and 2018.

Tell that to my friend’s fiancee and his family....he is sitting in the hospital right this very second with a lung infection that won’t go away and is resisting all forms of antibiotic. He didn’t vape any blackmarket THC. He has been vaping, normally and legally for about 2 years.

The US is not yet Nazi Germany. This is an ever so slight overreaction.

Right, because all cops are evil storm-troopers for you to sneer at , they are all racist brutes and neanderthals, rather than civil servants doing a million things useful and helpful to society and safety every day across the country, in a difficult and sometimes dangerous job. You don’t write about that, because…

I thought cop-hating was reserved for The Root.

So correct my understanding here, because my assumption at the end was that Andrea and Nate separated. The last scene and conversation with the both of them left it ambiguous.

Let me guess:  Radnor?

There’s a platoon of Main Line moms around me that will be devastated that they can’t push their trendy (and temporary) life choices on their toddlers.

Great? Greater?

When I was a kid, I watched Oprah with my mom. So when I was nine or ten, which would have been in the mid-90's, we were watching an episode where Oprah had a woman on the show who had a funny anecdote: she had dressed up as Oprah, complete with a wig, outfit, and notably, blackface, as the woman was white, and after…

and this is why trump can win in 2020

They are. Follow her IG. She promotes people of all sizes, colors, orientations and abilities. She’s one of the few celebrities consistently doing this on social media.  She isn’t perfect, but she is trying to do good things.  Meanwhile this site pretends to criticize Kardashian types while constantly promoting them…

Hazel, have you ever written anything about a woman that didn’t start with hateful sarcastic statements? I don’t see what warrants a post this long and pissy for doing something relatively innocuous. Honestly, are you okay? It's not healthy to be so bitter all the time.
