Agreed. She often seems to be faking it, which is bizarre for someone so rich. If I had her money, I’d buy a small apartment in ten different cities around the world, and then I’d have the time of of my life. All that flying would contribute to climate change, but the money would make me lose those values in an…

Most of these people don’t fit the definition of “Karen.” Maybe you think they’re annoying, or whiny, or they acted improperly in some way, but that’s not what the word means.

They could become psychologists, counselors, social workers, historians, authors, teachers.... They could work for the Peace Corps or the U.N., get into international development, help improve education and literacy in countries where girls don’t tend to go to school. Also, remember that it’s not necessarily a…

I don’t think it’s just pedophiles. This country has a lot of “bootstraps” mentality people who like to think that they can someday be rich, too. She’s living a life of fantasy, which people adore.

I used to work for my home state’s environmental agency, and we would find cases like this constantly. We had a whole division dedicated to toxics in consumer products. Companies that brag about their “all-natural” products can be among the worst. I remember one company selling crystals, jewels, and necklaces that…

Conservatives are literally taking us back to the 1800s by resurrecting wild west territory-era laws. One thing that people in the 1800s got right, though, was the assassinations. Sometimes we just need to get rid of people, so let’s bring that back.

This is such a severe mental illness that he shouldn’t be allowed to run companies. Someone should get a court to give them power of attorney. And then he needs to be medicated. If he can’t control himself, then he should be deported. No more mass firings, stock manipulations, and zany things that impact tens of…

Where do you live? Most cities at least as large as Boston have musicians performing in public. One of my friends just moved into a new apartment specifically because it’s much closer to the town’s public commons where there are frequent free, live shows. This is a totally normal thing.

You’re blaming “liberals” for something that didn’t even happen. Typical conservative. Were you the person who set fire to Comet Ping Pong because you think they eat babies?

Did you read the article?  The book is being written about him, not her.  Her profession is irrelevant to the story.

“A slip of the tongue” is such a lie. You don’t just stumble into a word that’s not already in your vocabulary. When these bigots try to use that excuse, I sometimes think about all those fancy words that I had to learn for the SAT and GRE. Even though I’m familiar with words like “obsequious,” I never actually say…

I’m nervous too. The poll they describe seems to suggest that essentially everyone who was undecided 3 weeks ago ultimately decided to vote “yes” (supporting the new rule that would make the anti-abortion measure easier to pass). Those people don’t sound moderate, measured, and thoughtful. They sound like…

That’s not quite it, though.  His comment was that it’s easier to make movies if they include transgender characters, while a pitch/script with only cisgender characters is less likely to be made.  That’s not directly hateful, but it’s definitely twisted, weird, dumb, and untrue.

“I have been unable to be a Christian because these two gay guys who I just invented out of thin air have been harassing me constantly!” — federal judges agree with this logic.

“It’s like they will tell people next sex is only for married couples who are engaging in procreation!”

How can you say “nobody is concerned” when there are literally hundreds of new bills written by cisgender people that focus on gay/lesbian and/or trans people? They’re making it a daily topic in the halls of Congress and most of the state legislatures. They’ve invented a new boogeyman for political gain. The cisgender…

Does he think he’s old enough that we’re in a new era now? Trans people weren’t invented merely ~40 years ago. There have been gender and sexual minorities for as long as there have been humans. That history has been erased by bigots, like we can see happening in Florida today. In fact, some of the most famous…

That’s a lie. People care deeply about gender and pronouns. If a cisgender man were called “she” and “ma’am” by people, he would probably consider it an insult. If a cisgender woman were referred to as “basically a man,” she would probably get upset. Especially in formal settings like workplaces, it matters. If a…

Does he think that all 12 apostles betrayed Jesus? The story goes that only Judas betrayed him (so, “he” not “they”). Maybe he considers it a “betrayal” when Peter pretended not to know him, but that’s not really what that word means. Such a dumb tweet. I agree, I think he meant Jews, plural, generally.

Seriously. He has a high school diploma, and he’s trying to lecture the rest of us on “intellect.” He has gotten all of his job offers by being a hot guy who goes to the gym a lot. I couldn’t care less what he thinks about politics, law, policy, rulemaking, regulations, etc.
