There’s many actual thoughtful opinions as to why Harriet Tubman should seriously not be put on a stupid $20 bill. It’s very, very well put by Kirsten West Savali at The Root: http://www.theroot.com/articles/polit…

I’m super sad about this. I’m from MA, and I know that my state is overwhelmingly against the death penalty, and even overwhelmingly against the death penalty for Tsarnaev, specifically. We should not be in the business of executing people. I don’t believe that counts as justice.

I’m at this point where I don’t care what happens to this guy, but I feel like a life penalty, locked up and isolated until he dies naturally, thinking about all the things he didn’t get to do, is a much bigger and appropriate punishment.

Maybe ask white people why we can’t all be people.

This race thing is just so stupid.

Only minority sperm ever get busted for loitering.

Not completely related, but speaking of baby animals and instant zen, here is a local farmer from our area (north bay) holding a snoozing three-day-old baby goat. I miss being in their CSA. Goat cuddling days were the best.

Honestly, it was the article about avocados and garlic that hit home for me, but this kitten is adorable.

IF I LIVED IN CALIFORNIA AND HAD A HOUSE AND MY CAT DIDN’T HATE OTHER ANIMALS I WOULD BE FOSTERING SO MANY KITTENS RIGHT NOW.
Someone step in in my place and do it for me, I’m sad that I can’t. :(

(although not sad that I don’t live in California.)

Not sure what the state income tax in NM but there’s no state income tax in WA. It might not be cheap in WA but it should even out in the end.

YES. Born and raised here, will probably stay. But I will never be able to afford to buy a house here unless I find some way to make over 200k/year. As a single mom, that’s unlikely anytime soon. The coastal town where I live has rents higher than a Manthattan apartment, and still climbing. Add drought restrictions…

I’m a fifth generation Californian on both sides of my family who left after college for what I thought would be a brief stint on the East Coast, always intending to go back when the time was right. Fast forward seven and a half years and my parents have just moved to North Carolina because they wanted to get out…

Californian here as well (I live in the Bay Area). I hate my smug ass friends acting like California is this bastion of natural beauty, liberalism and acceptance. They think of people in the south or midwest as though they are either survivors of a concentration camp or members of the KKK depending on the day. Do they…

YES. OH MY GOSH YES. Don’t come to California. There’s no water.

That’s something I don’t get. There are more places to live than NY and CA. Wonderful places with “culture” and “scenes” and whatever people are after.

You win you win you win I love you. Please sell the movie rights.

Goddamn! I am so sorry you had to go through that, but so very, very impressed with your methodology. I am an attorney, sometimes get involved in family law, and have done a fair amount of tracking down exes, but this never would have occurred to me. I may have to give it a shot.

I was going through a very ugly divorce. My husband cheated multiple times and eventually moved out. While this was going on, I had to change the locks on the doors to my house due to a burglary, and didn’t tell him. One day, he stopped by to get something from the house and couldn’t get in. He flew into a rage and…
