so if everyone wears a mask it will...

It does if the mask prevents the saliva and other fluids containing the virus from getting to your nose and mouth. I read a study saying wearing a mask is about 80% effective at preventing YOU from contracting the virus. It’s not 100%, but if you were told one restaurant was 80% lower chance of you getting food…

I read in the press they got huge cheers.

There is not a better argument for defunding or abolishing the police than this video (not to mention what happened at Parkland). What are police for, as presently constituted with guns, bulletproof vests, any amount of offensive and defensive military gear, and authority to use all of that at the drop of a hot, if…

Cops exist to protect property, not lives or freedom or any other bullshit they claim, not even elementary school kids trapped in their school with a mass shooter. They’re the enforcement arm of our dictatorship of the wealthy, nothing more, nothing less. They’ll kill you for stealing a pack of Pokémon cards or…

You could probably outbid Elon Musk on Twitter if you had a nickel for every time an internet threat like this was total BS.

It’s horrific, but it does happen. When I worked in print marketing we had to pull an advert for a sale on “very efficient” gas ovens that had been put right beside a full-page spread on the holocaust at the eleventh hour because no-one had noticed. Similarly, we definitely had ads for diapers with a tagline that…

How is this not the lead story? I mean, I enjoy the coverage of the Met gala as much as the next person, but I haven’t felt this sinking feeling in my stomach since Trump was elected — and I’m Canadian. 

It starts with Roe and Casey. They’ll return abortion to the states and create a patchwork quilt of laws that will result in chaos and a body count of desperate women who will be forced to turn to back-alley providers. The next time they have power, they’ll push for national abortion bans, or bans at 6 weeks or 15…

I blame Democrats. Multiple decades, and multiple majorities, went by without them codifying Abortion into law and making it near unassailable. Instead they chose to sit on a OPINION (which is always subject to change whether we like it or not) and use the threat of overturning it as a carrot for their base. It’s easy…

It might seem that celebrity Scientologists are naive or misguided, but it’s all an act designed to protect their place in pop culture.

Yeah, they’re not the ones getting wrecked financially buying ever more encyclopedic life manual sets and the like. From what I understand it starts as more of a self-help type relationship and draws in people who are often alone and/or flailing in life.

scientologists, especially celeb scientologists, don’t seem to have a firm grasp on the public’s concerns over their religion. they know that people hate them and call them a cult but don’t seem to get why.

Asking Tina Brown if she thinks the monarchy will survive is like asking your local news sports anchor if he thinks you should vote in favor of building the big new sports arena in town: of course they will answer yes because if the franchise folds, they are out of work.

It’s so interesting that they are shoving the label “ Relatable” on to Kate when she was quite the punching bag for the press before Megan came into the picture. Before she was " low class", and " pathetic" for waiting on Will. But no, not she's " down to earth"  and applauded for her constancy. My, how things change…

He’s entitled to be who he is without expressly putting a label on it for the public’s benefit. He’s never said he’s queer/non-binary/etc. He’s never said he’s anything in particular, just that he likes sex like anyone else his age.

This woman is clearly living in a very different world- or is as high as a kite.

Yes, think of the depths of being suicidal she could have reached by sticking around for 5 more years of the same kind of treatment! New records could have been broken!

The interviewee lost me at that exact moment.

“I think that it was a real pity for Meghan not to be more patient about playing the longer game...”
