Really loving all the lime truthers on Jez this week

I don't understand Sea World's position here at all. Wouldn't it be much better PR to say, "yup, the movie is right - it's now becoming clear that these whales cannot live in captivity. We're not doing the Shamu show anymore, and we will release our orcas into the wild when they're ready for that." They have so many…

That “Sea World - We’re Not Mean To Whales” commercial comes off as desperate and delusional. It’s right up there with the Monsanto commercial that shows families eating at picnic tables while a gentle female voiceover tells us that Monsanto wants us to be healthy and the “It’s a joy to work for Koch” ads. And also…

I just saw that commercial last night!

I feel like, regardless of the facts, once you’ve reached the point of airing commercials saying “no, we’re not abusing animals!”, you should probably just pack up shop and sell your assets.

We live in the area. We’ve had enough of Mary Kay LeTourneau to last a lifetime already.

The couple married in 2004, after Letourneau served two prison sentences equaling about eight years. During that time, Letourneau gave birth to two children, both Fualaau’s who are now teenagers

Mary is working as a legal assistant but hopes she can return to teaching ... She is still registered as a sex offender, but is trying to get her name removed from the registry.

Actual footage of the representatives:

I bind you, Iowa legislature, from doing harm!
Harm to your state and harm to your constituents!

That is the worst cat.

My dad used to always forget to pick me up from places and I was late to school so many times after his visitation night that the school guidance counselor was called. It was mortifying for me, along with having to have my little overnight bags. It wasn’t my parents being divorced that upset me because whatever, it…

As beautiful as I'm sure the house is and as unlikely as it is to be haunted, I really feel like it should be demolished. It seems like such a horrific thing to capitalize on. If someone is not going to turn into a teaching memorial like Auschwitz, shouldn't we have it destroyed? It just seems to me to be trivializing…

And a good fridge to keep it all fresh for longer, unfortunately. Or a good processor to chop and then freeze it to preserve it.

To everyone complaining about Paltrow’s choices: THATS THE WHOLE POINT. The point of this is to illustrate to the privileged that they have no fucking clue and good old GOOP’s target demographic are the ones who need this knowledge the most. Here’s hoping that she’ll carry through responsibly and conclude, that, wow,…

Holy shit, you solved poverty! If I just buy the $2.50 eggs instead of the $7 ones, everyone will have a nicer place to live!

I actually think this is a good thing she’s doing, because it’s bringing attention to the fact that getting rid of SNAP is super shitty as an idea.

I believe that the woman who gave us “handful of chickpeas in water” soup would consider lime water a breakfast food.

Good for Gwyneth. Maybe she’ll learn something humbling, maybe the issue will get more coverage. win-win.
