OOH Cookies for the man who actually carries out basic human activities! Imagine! He is taking time from work to care for his wife! Nobody has ever done that*! What a trailblazer!

As mentioned in the article, it is fine and reasonable to include it- but not to lead with it! Imagine you had a brain tumor and everyone walked up to you to tell you how much of strain it is on your partner and what a saint they were being to take care of you before expressing sympathy for you.

It’s good that she managed to overcome the handicap of not pleasing boners to still do something or other with her life.

Dude take a breath. No one is shitting all over Jrue taking time off to care for his wife. It’s about the presentation. Jesus.

My favorite part is how they frame lack of aesthetic appeal and a likeable personality as contradictory. Who woulda known that a woman who is “plain of feature and certainly overweight” could “NEVERTHELESS” be “a woman of wit and warmth”? Is it really so hard to see a woman’s personal characteristics as anything other…

I like the way they implied she was witty and warm despite her hideous appearance.

“Lauren Holiday has 50,000 more Twitter followers than her husband.”

Women have been doing the heavy lifting on the caretaking of sick children, spouses and parents since the beginning of time and don’t get front-page articles about their amazing sacrifices. It’s great that he’s doing it, but the fact that he is shouldn’t be lauded like something above and beyond. In sickness and in…

I would figure out a way to rise from the dead to kick some ass if that were me.

“But women’s sports are second-rate,” said way too many men and probably some women too.

The NYT eventually changed the wording in the obit after public backlash.

“Coby Bryant”

I agree, I get that academically he’s miles ahead of his peers but school is also about socialization which I’m guessing this kid missed out big on. My mom teachers first grade and one year she had a genius like him (he was in the process of patenting a car design at SIX) but his parents wanted him to move through the…

I have taught middle school for 15 years. Stories like this make me angry. I don't give a shit if he's academically ready for college. He isn't ready for college in far more ways that actually matter.

I wonder whether he would have much in common with kids his own age. The stuff most 12 year olds are interested inprobably wouldn’t interest a kid who was reading about math theorums at age 5.

Eh, I get your outrage. But I also volunteer at a shelter, and if it makes you feel a little better about dummies calling certain breeds “hypoallergenic”, I will share that the low-dander/shedding dogs we get tend to get adopted extremely fast. Like on average I’d say within 24hrs of becoming available for adoption,…

Oh, I’m aware of all of that, but when dogs are sold as “hypoallergenic” to people with severe dog allergies, those dogs end up in shelters, which I find to be bullshit. Hence me calling it out every time I see it.

You’re a visionary, Jujy.

Did the mom at least give the new kid a chance? Maybe he was much better than her own kid! Upgrades!

Have you read her tweets? She talks about how having cis men cast as transwomen puts transwomen in very real danger. She’s informing Bomer of something he likely wasn’t aware of and can actually easily do something about.
