I’m That Person at parties and happy hours because I point out that it was Sinead O’Connor who publicly called out the Catholic Church for sex abuse long before the Boston Globe ever did. The following year, a real estate developer found mass graves from the Magdalene laundries.

“I’m not racist… I don’t care what color or what religion anyone is,” she continued. “Are you a nice person? That’s what I judge you on.”

Why are people so fussed about where the baby came from? Unless they’re kidnappers on the down low, it was clearly either adoption or surrogate. If they don’t want to make it public to the world at large it’s their business.

also to clarify i’m most annoyed when journalists are pushing this! i know this is dirt bag, but bringing it up in a knowing tone on a platform that writes about political news when it’s such a distortion is wrong. public commentators should feel a responsibility to learn about what they’re talking about — the…

Few small things:

Gotcha. FWIW, I think the life of a housewife sounds like hell, but I think there are people who are okay with it. I just hate seeing women put down for liking romances. I don’t read them, but I don’t think people should be shamed for liking what they like. One thing we do agree upon is that our society places far too…

This book is on par with the 50 Shades of Gray and Twilight books. I’m not surprised that women love this type of writing.

There are no good billionaires.

And as someone studying STEM at the moment, I've learned that when people talk about promoting STEM they just mean tech bullshit. Maybe engineering. They don't actually care if you're like a botanist or physicist or something.

I want to smack that “MATH” hat off of his head. The fetishizing of STEM and the misguided assumption that what America needs is more math classes enrages me in a society where the valuable contributions of the humanities are ignored and the tech bro culture of overpaid code monkeys is hyped as the solution to our…

Stop obsessing over Rebel Wilson’s weight loss, okay? [Hollywood Life]

Framing how you counter it is just as important. For instance, my father-in-law is very Pro-Trump, very into passing around things on facebook, etc. and no college education, no natural skepticism beyond buying into conspiracies . I’ve had to sit him down and contextualize it. For instance, the “Coronavirus is a hoax…

I love Yoga with Adriene and now I love her even more.

Interesting-- I always found her videos easy to follow! She does have a couple phrases and cues that are unique to her though.

I know it is a thing, but not the say KK does it

You guys have a hardon for hating Jamil. 

Sorry, can’t take a comment about doing “more research” seriously when you clearly did not read my entire piece, lol!

I’m sure you just accidentally omitted the second part of his statement, where he said, “coming at them with a knife or something.” No way you were trying to imply Joe Biden said the police are justified in shooting anyone, regardless if they are a threat or not. 

Every kid is different. There might be developmental or emotional issues we don’t know about. Maybe back off the criticism of a strangers parenting?

Besides being a horrible thing to say, you know what else isn’t a great strategy? Letting the “middle of the country” know that you think they’re a bunch of prejudiced yokels who can’t handle the nuances of something like trans issues.
