I don’t think trying to refute your argument will convince you of anything since you are conflating your version of logic with actual human emotions, but I think you should have a deep think about whether you need to be the person who makes this point OUT LOUD. Is it more important that everyone agree with you or more…

I know someone whose office rents out a Snoo to employees who are new parents. Seems like a good idea - a good perk and then once they are back at work, potentially a more well-rested employee. 

Too often I learn about a magazine or website only because Jezebel covers its closing. Can anyone recommend some excellent sites/mags that are still going that could use more eyeballs?

Clothing donations should be reserved for items in good condition that you no longer want or need. Just because someone is poor doesn’t mean that they deserve to wear items that are not good enough for you. Most places won’t take used socks or underwear and will likely throw it out. They also will not take ANY items…

I was just wondering if Coachella used to be cooler or if I had gotten old! Sounds like it’s a mixture of both. I was looking at the lineups from the years when I used to be desperate to go (2005-2009ish) and there were for sure more indie bands back then. I guess with the rise of the free advertising provided by insta…

But the path Kim is choosing (“reading” law instead of going to law school) is actually MORE attainable for normal people than law school is. All in, it costs just a few thousand dollars in fees to the state instead of $100,000+ law schools. Only four states offer reading law as an option, but it’s definitely a way to…

Yes, I do agree that she was dismissive and from a leadership standpoint, you would think that it would make sense to make it clear that she is leading ALL of the Dem members of congress, by saying something like “The focused and disproportionate media attention on the few most progressive members of the party implies…

that is both hilarious and sad. After my boss told me that vaccines were just a revenue-generating hoax, I asked my pediatrician cousin what the actual financials of the process were. That’s where I got the $25 per vaccine number. Looks like kids under two years old get about 10 different vaccines in 25 doses, which…

My old boss was an anti-vaxxer. I think he thought of himself as smarter than most people and liked that he had “figured out” that vaccines (including flu shots) are a conspiracy meant to enrich doctors and evil Big Pharma. Nevermind that doctors charge all of $25 per vaccine and pediatricians are typically the least…

Plus the center-of-the-universe selfishness that would allow a parent to feel fine about THEIR otherwise-healthy kid getting measles without considering that it makes it easier for another kid with a compromised immune system to DIE from the exposure.

The teacher said this was the first religious exemption, not the first unvaccinated kid. It’s possible that there will be another kid who cannot be vaccinated for medical reasons who will be put at risk by the “religious exemption” kid. 

Sure, but the majority of elected Democrats are not super progressive and neither are the majority of voting Americans who identify as Democrats. I love AOC, Ayanna Pressley, Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib and Deb Haaland but yeah, that’s five people out of the 235 Democratic members of the house. We only got the blue wave…

Right, it’s easy to forget how many moderate Democrats are out there when reading Jezebel or similar sites. There is a reason why Biden is consistently polling so high. We also are stuck (mostly) in a two party system, so the furthest left candidate typically still needs to run as a Democrat instead of as a Democratic…

Yeah, I think a lot of people who generally like her are similar you and not ready to fully support anyone yet. I think that’s why she is trailing in donations - the people who are ALL IN are all in for other candidates. I am hoping that she at least stays in the race long enough to strongly influence the direction…

she has my campaign donation money and my vote locked in. She has more fleshed out ideas and more stamina than anyone else running. I think she’s planning on meeting everyone in the country personally based on how many town halls she’s been doing.

Do you think it was also a way to prevent the house from becoming a tourist destination?

according to the moms of kids who like her, she sings pop songs and make youtube videos where she yells a lot. Primarily she is sparkly. 

She is full 1980s astronaut barbie

The Vogue article mentioned that the kitchen you see in the video was for show and that the family spends a lot of time in the staff kitchen.

I think Felicity spent $15,000 on her scheme to Lori’s $500,000. So they likely will not face anywhere near the same sentence.
