I'm self righteous everyday. 

That is so frustrating. I got the same eye roll when I said that Roe was in jeopardy especially if Trump won. Now it’s “Well these other cases aren’t in jeopardy. It’s silly to even suggest otherwise."

I don’t think we should use clinical terms to describe rude or inappropriate behavior. These are real medical issues, and they should be talked about that way. Being self absorbed isn't narcissism just because narcissists are self absorbed. Being sad isn't depression. We need to treat mental health like physical…

That 5% encompasses all of them. It's like calling everyone schizo or saying, I'm so OCD. 

I think we’ve been playing pretty fast and loose with the word narcissist lately. It’s a disorder that is estimated to affect no more than 5% of the population. I actually had the misfortune to know one and it’s far beyond just being a manipulative asshole. My experience has made me a bit sensitive to watering down…

I really think that as a country we have a fundamental misunderstanding of our government. It really seems to be an education issue. Griswold is huge, and I don't think that most people realize how important it is. 

This all day. I’m currently in the South and it’s not anymore racist than the solidly blue state I lived in before. This fuck the South move idea ignores that it’s not much better anywhere. Yes, New York state has codified abortion, but if you cant afford it, you still don’t have access. I agree on your solutions. And…

When asked about transwomen in weight lifting Sarah Robles said, “No thank you.” Robles had 2 year doping ban in 2014. Weightlifting has so many issues enforcing their drug policies that they aren’t even in the LA Olympics. It’s unreal that people who actively violate PED rules want to pretend this is about fairness.…

Years. They’ve been talking about it publicly since Obergefell v. Hodges was decided. Including different avenues to get there. Trump appointed 54 federal judges in 4 years. By contrast Obama appointed 55 in 8 years. The Trump administration will haunt us for decades. 

She has another daughter Selina Flores who says that the children interviewed in the documentary and who stated that they were never abused didnt live in the house at the time. She has also said that her mother told them to tell the police that Mariah fell down the stairs. She believes her mother is guilty. 

I’m not opposed to the idea. I’m not sure it’s necessary if student loans could be discharged in bankruptcy. Lenders wouldn’t be willing to loan huge sums of money to people who have no prospects of paying it back which would force colleges to adjust their tuition. It could also make college less accessible, so we…

Again, this is a population level assessment that needs a population level solution. Do you have one that will address the 80% failure rate of weight loss? Are you advocating for community wide solutions? Are you criticisizing diet companies? Teens who diet are more than twice as likely to become overweight than teens…

You can feel free to dismiss me, again. Anti-fat bias is well documented in the medical community. You are not a doctor. You are not Lizzo’s doctor. You do seem to be extremely hung up an arbitrary number that is only in widespread use because of insurance company. In that vein what’s your resting heart rate, wilkes…

I had a lot to say. OP dismissed my comments. Jezebel has some very anti-feminist ideas about weight and diet culture. A lot of people who have lost weight have a strong anti-fat bias.

The polling data is interesting. It’s been pretty widely misrepresented. Most people favor some forgiveness. A lot of headlines and comments say the majority of Americans favor student loan forgiveness which is true. This article from student borrower protection center is a prime example. It says 64% favor forgivness…

I’m sorry that the existence of confidente fat women having a show where they can demonstrate their talent upsets you. Dieting is correlated with obesity. Are you commenting on those pages? I don’t believe that people are going to start eating more just because they saw this show or because body acceptance is a thing.…

You referenced shaming smonkers and specifically saying these women shouldn’t be showcased because people might think it’s ok to be fat is pretty close.

You clearly haven’t met my grandmother or her knitting circle. Facebook is beyond them, but Lovecraft they know about. I've seen some comments on AV Club dismissing Lovecraft's racism as common to the time. I think people assume anything old was in line with the current social mores. 

The studies on obesity are interesting to say the least. We know that overall people over a certain weight tend to have greater health risks as a population. Not neccessarily as individuals. Income plays a significant role in weight, which also plays a role in health outcomes. The BMI is also based predominantly on…

This is where I am too. I have student loan debt and forgiveness would benefit me. I don’t need it. I’m doing a lot better than people in my area. My income is significantly higher than the median for my town. I was able to go to college because I had a place to live and was able to commute. I worked two to three jobs…
