Yes, what is this world coming to when employees can refuse service to customers simply based on their own religious beliefs? I’m assuming, of course, that next he’s going to go after the pharmacists and pharmacy techs who refuse to supply customers with birth control and Plan B. Right? Riiiiight?

Why don’t the “good” white men speak up about the “bad” ones? We’ve played that game with Muslims. It’s only fair that white people get it now.
Sorry, but I think if you are going to advance a racist anti-Muslim agenda, it is incumbent upon you to speak the Queen’s English. Anyone who wants to defend the slave trade must be able to converse in the language of Kipling.
I won’t comment on your argument at this point. But if you want to engage in this debate in English, you should buy some advanced grammar books. Your lack of fluency in written English is going to impede your ability to join any serious debate.
So frustrating that some white people and their minority allies feel that they can give “helpful” “constructive” criticism to blacks, but let one black person make an observation or a critique and they go bananas: sputtering and tripping over themselves to call it racism. No, it’s not racism. I thought everyone…
White people: racism isn’t about us but literally everything else is.
White fragility is real. I just got done writing a column in which I mentioned white fragility in the context of the recent shootings of unarmed black men and I just know my inbox will be inundated with butt hurt come Wednesday when it’s published. The mere act of mentioning racism is still a thing drives people…
So many progressive measure could actually be spun as fiscal conservative measures if you think about it: Raise the minimum wage and drastically reduce welfare spending, which could lead to lower overall taxes! Properly fund education and improve the nations economy, also leading to an overall drop in welfare…
Why are you not gray? Please fuck off all the way to right and delete your comments, your account, and then slap yourself for being so fucking stupid.
Today, my friend who is 24 and unmarried but with a very serious boyfriend (doesn’t matter but whatever) went to her gynecologist to look into getting an IUD. Her doctor told her that they did not give the IUD to people unless they were married because there is “such a high risk of infection” as in STDs. My friend…
As the Denver Post reported, the IUD program in Colorado “faced resistance from fiscal hawks who consider the spending redundant and social conservatives who believe IUDs cause abortions, a point rejected by the medical community.”
For every dollar put into the program, he says, citing a state study, it avoids an estimated $5.85 in the state’s Medicaid program over a three-year period.
If they wanted to “help women”, they would teach sex ed in schools instead of the abstinence only programs they are so fond of. They would make low cost birth control accessible to women instead of continuously undermining groups that do. But, you know, it’s much better to put an ambulance at the bottom of the hill…
I feel like you’re going to get a lot of defensive feedback from this, but I agree with you completely. I feel incredibly uncomfortable when I get manicures (the three times I’ve done it), and usually end up with nails that I could have done just as well on my own. I’ve never had a pedicure, because the idea of…
I wait tables, and here’s the thing, I get less mad about people who go out and just can’t tip well (because the bill is too high, and you can kind of see it in their faces). I try to just say, Yeah this sucks but I gave them a nice night and everyone deserves that once in awhile. But what kills me, are the people who…
OK, but since the current system requires tipping, people shouldn’t go out if they can’t afford to tip. Don’t fuck over the person who’s helping you to make a political statement.
One year from now Matt Heflin remains dumb, uneducated, and unemployed. Support from family and friends has run out. Rent is due, the fridge is empty. Facing homelessness and starvation, Heflin’s last option is to join the military he so hated. The recruiter laughs when he steps through the door.
Buuuut, if you can afford to pay $60 for a tab, you should give more than a quarter for a tip.
If you can’t afford to tip appropriately, you can’t afford to eat out.
