We’ve seen this film, before. At least some of us.

Meanwhile in the 80s those Golden Girls were buying condoms in bulk.

When I confessed my sexual harassment story to a guy I used to work with, his response was “I always felt something was off about that guy and I could never figure out what it was. I figured I was being crazy, turned out he was sexually harassing a bunch of women in the office.” Sometimes you get a vibe and you don’t…

“I was just there to be there”

Because 30 years ago, Ronald Reagan convinced half the country that the government is evil. The only way anything can work is by privatizing it. The free market and competition will solve everything. And many people who identify as Republicans continue to go along with it, even though they know in the back of their…

I’m not going to say anything about the little girl, other than that she’s adorable, and if she were my child I would try to gently point out to her that Michelle is better than a queen, she’s a beautiful, successful woman in her own right regardless (or perhaps in spite of) of how or where she was born.

Don’t worry though, you can still post as many pics of your AR-15 as you’d like. THAT’S not obscene at all!

I got a Juul for Christmas (I’m about double the age of a high school senior), and I’m already looking at getting back on Wellbutrin to curb it. It’s an incredibly easy, potent, elegant system, but I find myself having fallen back into nicotine dependency as a result of it.

Gaslighting crazymaking

Every press briefing is the same. Journalist x ask what did the president mean when he said “y.” Then the answer from Sanders is either:

Donald, No.

My question - why can’t a ‘real man’ who can hold a decently paid job job that pays well with one of the most highly valued corporations on the planet just keep his mouth shut and quietly and slowly wait for attrition to help him move slowly but surely up the corporate ladder even though he wasn’t very good at his job…

Some percentage of that 90 percent may glibly say to you “oh I’m giving up drinking/chocolate/refined sugar, I’m going to lose so much weight,” and they may not necessarily be sharing all of their thoughts about the religious meaning of what they’re doing, or the prayer intentions/charitable giving/ other spiritual…

Sadly, my first thought is that their business team realized that “before and after” implies that some day you won’t need WW anymore, but a “healthy lifestyle” means you’ll need WW forever.

“roux doesn’t belong in gumbo”

“Roux doesn’t belong in gumbo”?! What are you, high?? Next you’ll be telling me that clams don’t belong in chowder, that meat doesn’t belong in chili or that ice cream doesn’t belong in a banana split. Roux is the sine qua non of gumbo; if there is no roux, it ain’t a gumbo. It might be some really tasty, bitchin’…

Trump is more a stupider version of L. Ron Hubbard.

I largely agree with you. The idea of force is an interesting one though. Sure, no one is holding a gun against their head (I should hope not), but society/family/religious norms “force” people into a way of acting/thinking. I should say, I would never tell someone what they can and cannot wear. This is just an…

I personally put the hijab in the same category as Sikh men wearing turbans or any religion that mandates men have beards. Not my cup of tea but so long as you’re doing it because you want to follow your religion and not because you’re being forced into it by someone else then it’s your life. You do you.

Caring about optics =\= caring about women.
