I think Taylor Swift passes them out the first Friday of every month.
“the woman card, an all-powerful card worth 78.3% of a regular card”
Awesome turn of phrase.
(awful that it’s true. :()
There’s a Woman Card?!? Where do I get mine?! Because being a woman in engineering I could kinda use one...
Probably, and here is where mature and not self-centered parents have joint custody and equal time even if it means moving from where they want to live.
I’m clearly not a parent, like how do you win getting a surly teenager to ruin your holiday with his angst? He’ll eventually get pissed off with his dad and come back. They always do.
It’s when you become aware that you DIDN’T ASK TO BE BORN.
Not to mention how well a teenager can play both divorced parents. Idk what’s really going on here — no one does — but 15 year olds can be obnoxious as all hell.
Kids that age may be minors but there’s not a lot you can order them to do.
I mean, I’d like to have a young female Bernie running too, but Elizabeth Warren said she wouldn’t, so I’ll take what I can get.
Yup. Hillary’s a moderate at best, a hawk, a reluctant supporter of gay rights, and a politician who’s willing to change her stance on any issue based on the latest poll results. Bernie - who is incidentally a liberal urban Jew who moved to Vermont for political reasons and doesn’t know a damn thing about farming -…
“because people here definitely have a tendency to twist words and interpret their meaning in the least charitable way possible.”
Yes, that same one. Don’t get me wrong, I completely disagreed with her take on that. But like I said, I don’t have to completely agree with someone’s views to like and respect them as a writer.
I like when the writers unleash on the commentariat, because it means they’re human. Getting the sheer volume of commentary they get has to be maddening to some degree. And you can’t win for losing - you ignore your commentariat and you are seen as unresponsive, you let them get under your skin and you’re…
I loved it too. Even if I didn’t agree with all of it. It was a subtle, thorough and very analytical piece that I wish we saw more often. I wish I had more time to sit down and really write a proper comment about it. It’s not the first time Jia has written a piece that made me react this way either and it’s why she…
I really don’t get what you’re trying to say here. Overturning Citizen’s United is a real issue, and the only reason it’s being talked about is because Bernie’s beating that drum. I honestly have no idea what horrible harm Bernie’s doing by running. That’s kinda how democracy works... At least as close as this country…
If ‘the Republicans have no chance against Hillary’, the why are you so pressed that Bernie is running? The people who are pro-Bernie have always had issues with Hillary - so he did not create them.
Diverting people from real issues... like poverty, racism, and the rapid stratification of US wealth... what?
Bernie and Hillary are serious people acting like serious candidates - discussing policy without resorting to fantastical lies and insults like the other side. They deserve our respect because they’re acting like adults. The “piss off, rednecks” line is more like the blather coming from the other side. Discuss Bernie…
