Is it weird that I find stories about really dumb racists kinda comforting?

there’s a Church’s in L’Enfant plaza in DC, almost forgot

fair enough

While we’re talking about food sanitation, you really shouldn’t use a wood cutting board with raw meat. Even with washing there are a lot more place for bacteria to hide in wood

No one said that, of course you season/marinate 

I’ve never noticed your first reason to be a big issue. I can see the 2nd, but really you can do that without washing the chicken. 

Yeah, I never got the point to washing raw chicken so I’ve never done it. It doesn’t accomplish anything. My mom doesn’t either. Don’t remember if my grandma did

I would wish a severe case of measles on you so you can see just how bad it can get, but chances are your parents weren’t quite as dumb as you and actually had you vaccinated, so you’re probably encouraging people to take a risk that you don’t actually face yourself. Plus you’d probably go out an infect a baby or…

Unfortunately our collective lack of understanding of consent and our puritanical understanding of sexuality means that probably a majority of people in this country would have a hard time understanding and being non-judgemental about the initial “consensual non-consensual” BDSM aspect of their relationship and…

Yeah, I think it’s an excusable assumption. James is the most common name in the english speaking world and Jimmy is one of it’s most common nicknames. I also don’t see a lot of ways for this to come up in conversation other than unintentionally getting it wrong, which is exactly what happened. It seems like a fair…

Cause Jimmy is a nickname for James and not generally a given name?

If nothing else, he’s providing great proof against the claim that it’s really easy to falsely accuse someone well-known of sexual assault. Turns out journalists actually vet these claims before reporting on them. Who knew? 

Bingo

The fact that one of the officers had to be treated for injuries after shooting at two unarmed civilians tells you all you need to know about these big damn heroes.

Speaking of gentrification in DC, apparently white people have decided that Howard is a dog park and it’s become something of an issue 

how does it have less trunk space than a Miata despite it using batteries?!?!

But if you can afford to have a regular family doctor, you might think to call them before making a trip to the ER and in many cases they can probably tell you it’s not an emergency

Well yeah, you’re right about the Ugly Duckling, but I think that’s probably meant to be the reference here with the name of the candy duck

Sorry, this is a stretch. Has no one read “The Ugly Duckling”?

There’s a very well done (and very frustrating) podcast about this family called “Broken Harts” that really highlights how much these women were able to get away with because they were liberal white women. There were lots of warning signs that this situation was bad and only getting worse, but those signs were ignored…
